Man stunned in CBD brawl

Crackdown after crackdown by police on drunken drug crazed inner city brawlers has done nothing to stop the carnage. Drunken thugs brazenly turn on police, WHO ARE ARMED with tazers and firearms! What hope does an unarmed public have. This is why people are hiding in their homes at night, this is why tourists are being warned to stay away. The firearms ban has done nothing but empower drunked loutish brawling criminal behaviour.

New political climate - a fresh start

The tenuous Federal Election result announced earlier this month provides both challenges and incentives for the SSAA to ramp up its lobbying to the benefit of members.

The reality of the new political climate is that currently, it would take only one vote to bring down the Labor Government and see the start of a new Coalition executive. What this means for us is that we will be increasing our communication with all parties, including Labor, the Liberal-National Coalition and the king-maker Independents.

Despite The Greens having an increased power in the Senate next July, there’s a real opportunity for those like us, who want to protect the outdoor sports and recreations, to make a difference with the assistance of the Independents. Several of these Independents have publicly slammed The Greens’ philosophy and the gun buy-backs as nonsensical legislation that only affects the law-abiding.

In summary, it’s a fresh start and one which SSAA National will utilise to the benefit of members.

Shots fired into the ceiling in front of drinkers and staff.

"In most instances the thieves, wearing balaclavas and armed with pistols, machetes and baseball bats, storm into hotels. They use stolen cars that are later dumped."

"I haven't been robbed lately but ring me next week. It's happening that often at the moment," one publican said."

.

"Supt Antonjuk said it was vital that staff, drinkers or anyone who found themselves involved in an armed robbery remained calm and co-operated with the robbers."

Thanks for dissarming Australia Mr. Howard, and thanks fo promising us we would be safer. We are still waiting for this, "I promise you, you will be safer without guns," to occure.

In the mean time, we continue to be bashed, robbed, raped and murdered, in our homes which are invaded by criminals. We are forced out of our cars in broard daylight by armed criminals who never handed in their firearms. Haz.

Trigger for reform - Bill Crews' family wants tougher firearm laws .

A police officer is accidently shot by his fellow officers during a shoot out with a criminal, his parents call for tougher gun laws, and law abiding citizens must suffer the consequences. This is what we are dealing with down under.

"THE parents of killed police officer William Crews have backed a campaign calling for tougher gun laws and mandatory sentencing for people caught with illegal firearms."

.

We already have the toughest gun laws of any western country in the world which includes mandatory sentencing for people caught with illegal firearms."

"Despite their heartache, their pride in Constable Crews would be their focus."

Campaining for tougher gun laws in Australia, in my humble opinion is not focusing on their dead son and his family! Haz.

Adelaide street gang are turning on each other with guns.

Again, this proves beyond doubt that the Australian Governments gun-ban and buy-back, aimed at preventing gun crime and promising to make our society a safer place, was a compete and total wast of time and five hundred million Australian tax payers dollars . . . . . . $500,000,000 .

"Ink Central is a gathering point for New Boys and a battlefield where violence regularly spills over, prompting Hindley St traders to call for it to be closed."

.

Are our city streets safe? We now have local traders closing shops in the entire street whilst gang battles take over?

"West End Traders spokesman Tony Tropeano said traders should co-operate with police."

.

Traders are terrified to co-operate with police, and fear for their lives Mr. Tropeano. Haz.

Great-grandmother Beverley Hanley bashed to death.

Getting rid of guns will make our society safer, according to Mr. Howard, former prime Minister of Australia, and I will get rid of them.

"Victims of Crime Commissioner Michael O'Connell said it was important elderly people living alone remained calm in the wake of the latest murder.

"It is despicable that anyone preys on vulnerable and elderly people," he said.

"But despite these two recent killings, elderly people are generally safe in their homes."

.

Tell that to the families and the victims home invasions, of rape, and of murder Mr. O'Connell.

If you ask me, I believe the Government has despicably preyed upon all Australians, especially the elderly and vulnerable by banning firearms and their use in self defence. Calling Crime Stoppers doesn't seem to be working?

Her daughter stated;

"there was no other mother like her, She wouldn't have gone down without a fight,''

.

Mr. O'connell stated

""It's important that people know that changing their lifestyle, locking themselves away in their homes has been shown to be a major problem."

,

We all know its become a major problem SINCE THE FIREARMS BAN, Mr O'connell, and we lock ourselves in our homes because the streets are too dangerous to walk any more, because we have been dissarmed to the criminals advantage? In fact crime is so rampent since the firearms ban we are now not even safe in our homes anymore as well.

What a pity she never had access to a firearm, she may be alive today? Haz.

Finally some co-operation amongs political parites ina push to shut the anties.

Bob Katter targets Greens.
Independant MP Bob Katter has thrown his support behind the far-right NSW Shooters and Fishers party in a bid to stop the surging support for the Greens in Victoria and NSW elections.
While far-right targets the Greens there is a growing concern within the Coalition that the million voters who supported One Nation in the late 1990s could be mobilising in favour of independent or US-style Tea Party candidates, splintering their vote.

The NSW Shooters and Fishers see Mr Katter as a key figure in promoting the party in the NSW election and heading off the growing political influence of the Greens Nationally.
