I find the recent proposals of the government to tighten gun law and restrict more weapons with no evidence or reasoning to be a breach of power and a negative view of the party to stay in touch with grass root Australian voters. The assumption that all weapon owners are outlaws is a total misrepresentation, the majority are peaceful law abiding people that just want to maintain the freedom of there sport.

So I ask you Mr Brough stand up for us the law abiding people, don’t allow this misrepresentation of my sport my hobby my life to be restricted any further.

The tv and newspaper have a lot to answer for. They incorrectly report the current gun violence facts and the public believes them (ie the adler is more powerful than any other weapon – sydney morning herald). Hence the honest law abbiding firearm owner suffers as the govt acre to keep the public vote. The media is the biggest problem here.
Lets take a leaf out of nz gun laws. They work well.
If they don’t listen to our concerns they will pay at the ballot box ! we will not roll over like we did under Howard
