Australia Doubles Down on Civilian Disarmament with New Weapon Laws

Oh, it gets better brother. You’re not even allowed to own a machete to clear brush, or a slingshot, or even a laser pointer!!

They’ve literally lost their minds. Anyone who thinks wr can allow “common sense” (who gets to define common sense?) gun restrictions needs to look at Austraila’s slippery slope. More like a slippery cliff and they’re speeding toward disaster. How deep in the sand can they shove their heads?

From the end of the article:
Machetes would join the already lengthy list of “prohibited weapons” in the state that includes flick knives, non-metal/ceramic knives (“excluding plastic cutlery”), swords, laser pointers, slingshots and catapults, tasers/stun guns, crossbows, laser-tag imitation firearms, gel blaster guns, extendable batons, “acoustic anti-personnel devices,” and mace sprays and similar “noxious discharge articles” (club-type maces are also prohibited, “other than a ceremonial mace made for and used solely as a symbol of authority on ceremonial occasions”).

Every time we discuss gun laws in other Countries, my first thought is: WHY?
And I do not see other answer that - let’s talk about something we cannot clearly understand.

Who cares what laws are outside the USA? Why do we even spend time thinking about something that doesn’t apply to our lives?

I know.. I’m controversial here, but It’s really hard to understand why do we care about Australian’s Gun Laws
 or any other Country’s Gun Laws
 if we don’t live there and we do not know how to live there.

I lived most of my young live in Poland, spent a lot of time in other European Countries
 each one got full of partial firearm restrictions. So? People lives with that and majority of Citizens has nothing against it. Just different mentality, less firearm accessibility and much less gun violation comparing to USA.

I’m expecting few posts with statistics.. but it’s not the point. Everything has exceptions.

The point is - we live between guns, so we must have equal tools to counter amount of firearms in bad hands. Not each Country has the same condition.

You make a good point but I don’t want to talk about it.:rofl:

So the point is to control civilians to the point of a Socialists country. Take the arms away and the government can do as they pleased with people. Just irrational and abuse of power. Keep voting for left wing parties. I see this happening in the USA soon

Welcome @Luis90 !

Tough subject, but important, to be initiated to the Community. Usually, we are “factual” and a bit more light-hearted here.

Prior to WW II (you know, The Big One) , the UK had gun control and confiscation, IIRC. When the war broke out for real, they BEGGED the U.S to provide them with whatever arms we could provide. We stepped up. Today, they are back to doing the same stupid crap. They will never learn

This has been going on for too long, we are an embarrassment to the founding fathers. They would NEVER put up with this crap!

Because IT DOES EFFECT OUTR LIVES BROTHER.
The SAME folk’s who do this to the Aussie’s are doing it all
over the Globe.
TOTAL DISARMAMENT is their GOAL, CONTROL, ENSLAVEMENT
Can’t you see the effects here (USA) already?
Have the last (4-8) years shown you anything?

EVERY COUNTRY THAT HAS ‘ADOPTED’ a NO GUN Policy has turned to SH!T.
A True DICTATORSHIP
I’m not trying to turn this into a ‘Race’ thing but White Farmers have been under the gun (pun intended)
Since this whole Socialist/Totalitarian bullsh!t started in 1997.
Roving bands of ‘Gangs’ (for lack of a better description) have been TERRORIZING
these folk’s and the Law is ineffective (all they can really do is mop up
the crimes scenes.
How effective would that work HERE My good Sir?
It WOULDN’T! because WE KNOW BG’S would still have Guns!
(We also know if pushed too hard it would be a SLAUGHTER (for THEM).

and THEY know it too.
Just read the article when basically they say they are never done (.gov) till
they get ALL THE GUNS. I don’t know about anyone else but I AM NOT GOING
THE WAY OF THE AMERICAN INDIAN. Forced onto ‘RESERVATIONS’ (or 15 minute cities for White folks). Alcohol/Drug abuse, untold numbers on the G’s dole, DEPRESSION
and hopelessness abound—NO THANK YOU.

This affects us all.

And that’s how we differ :wink:
Australian’s gun laws has nothing to do with our lives
 unless you are Australian


Total disarmament of civilians won’t happen in USA
 we have too many firearms in civilians’ hands and it’s out of control for any disarming ideas


Not every Country with “no gun Policy” has turned to SH!T
 you have to start traveling more and visiting other Countries. Talk to people, try to understand them and then make your judgments.

I lived 35 years without firearms, I can count on my fingers weeks when I was carrying KBKS Rifle during military service
 and I never saw my home Country turned into SH!T because of that.

As I already mentioned - firearms are part of American culture - it was, is and will be just another tool that each of US Citizens can posses and carry.

Like @Karacal said - we can be thankful for this, but there is no reason to feel sorry for another Countries
 because they don’t need our sorrows.

I won’t go line by line in what I disagree with (in your post)
But, the countries I listed did become ‘Failed States’ because of
Tyranny and Total disarmament of the people.
I have travelled (extensively) urand don’t wish to leave the United States ever again.
*for now. This is my HOME and I’ve said this before I do nor care what other countries do.
WE NEED TO TAKE CARE OF OUR OWN FIRST and let others do the same.
IF you cannot acknowledge there is a continued attack on our rights and Freedoms
(especially our 2A RKBA) I just don’t know what to say.

You just haven’t given it enough time! We are totally on our way to complete disarmament. When Colorado signs its wishlist bill, it will spread like wildfire. When pissant judges can defy a PRESIDENT who is working the constitution to rid this country of the vermin that infected it, we’re screwed!
The funny thing is, as it comes down, we will still be making memes instead of watering the tree! We’re not going to fight, we’re not even going to vandalize a statue. The democrats know how to win! They’ve been doing it all this time. Trump may be in office, yet again some resistant force is running the country! Right now I would prefer he defy the courts and become the dictator he said he would become!
Our country is gone, my apologies to the founding fathers!
The Democrats are not in disarray, they are following the book.
“We” are the sheep and we’re being slaughtered!

Do I have to quote the whole book


WTF do I even train?
It’s a phuckin hobby not the deterrent I was born to believe!

Countries ruled by dictatorship and tyranny suffer from everything and disarmament is one of forms to run Country this way.
It cannot be taken under consideration in this discussion.
We live in civilized Country and nothing what happens in non civilized and poor parts of the World will affect us. This is their local problem.

Ok
 I might be wrong then ..
Please remind me when it comes.
I like to learn from my mistakes and misjudgements.

There it is! While I do not BELIEVE we will lose this fight, WE ARE IN A FIGHT!.
If Jerzees wishes to feel we are safe and everything is beautiful more power to him.
‘This is their local problem’ he keeps saying when I never said it should be our problem.
BUT when a bunch of Countries fall IT WILL EVENTUALLY BE OUR PROBLEM!
Attempting to read sh!t into what I post that is not there is a common problem
with folk’s today. Is it reading comprehension issues or folk’s trying to BE RIGHT
and not take the time to decipher what someone posts I don’t know.
But ‘WHERE WE GO 1 WE GO ALL’ is not just an American theme. IF your neighbors
to the North or South have a Cancer in their Government, or if Countries believe that
the ‘take over’ of America is in their best interest (Illegal Migration for instance, China’s Influence, Terrorist Cells trying to force feed us ISLAM) WE HAVE A PROBLEM.
I won’t repost that CONCENTRATION CAMP PHOTO but take a HARD LOOK!
People with their heads
 LET THIS ATROCITY HAPPEN TILL IT WAS OUR FRIGGIN’ PROBLEM!
