I did read this article and was pleased. There has been a lot of propaganda during this time where Port Arthur has been hijacked for the anti gun lobby. This was the only pro gun article from the major news outlets that I could find for the period.
Its a bit sad that we dont have more real conservative/liberals to go in and bat for us like Senator Leyonhjelm that get coverage.
So a big thank you to Carlo and his editor for this piece.
