Utter insanity. This sort of “gun control”, so called, simply defies rationality.
In other words, self-defense is practically illegal, if not technically illegal.

I have spent a few days in Albury. There’s a whole lot of nothing outside of town. It’s the kind of country where you aren’t likely to have to defend yourself often against a feral hominid biped ... but if you do, you’re on your own. Firearms are strongly recommended. Except in Australia and similar places.
Are assault boomerangs banned too?
Maybe we should have stayed away from Guadalcanal.......
And this is basically the entire position of the left.
I never would have called the police if I were him. Any intruder would be shot and their body burned or buried. Best of all, since there would be no connection between me and the intruder, investigating his missing persons case would never lead the authorities to me.
We are told we do not need guns to defend against a tyrranical state because the US is yhis April not dych a state and never will be. But this April 19 will be the 243rd anniversary of Lexington and Concord. No one on the left chooses to remember that those armed encounters happened because the world’s most liberal progressive state sought to disarm its people.
And from the greatest western ever filmed...” A gun is a tool Marion, like an axe , a shovel, anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.”
Would a bucket of rocks for self defense be legal in Australia?
Exactly. His mistake was thinking he lived in a civilized country. Eventually enough people will start getting the hints, and will stop calling the police for anything.
There’s a new saying going around: “If you own a gun, you also need to own a shovel.”
We live in ultra modern future of 2018 and self defense is not a human right not even in the womb. It is absolutely unconscionable.
“Maybe we should have stayed away from Guadalcanal.......”
And The Battle of The Coral Sea?
Exactly. His mistake was thinking he lived in a civilized country. Eventually enough people will start getting the hints, and will stop calling the police for anything.
While this caused some trouble for David Dunstand and his family, the attention it brought may help to bring about changes in the law.
Australian culture is not anti-self defense. There is a strong independent streak there. The whole extreme gun law situation there was plotted for by a small group of far-leftists and the Australian media, mostly financed by George Soros. If the law had gone through the regular process, not rushed through in a media stirred up frenzy, the law might well have included a provision for self defense in the home.
Don’t give up on Australia.
Like the U.S. Australia is dominated by a very liberal media culture in the big cities. That can change, if Australians figure out a way to get information outside of that data stream.
Do you think Shane died in the end?
Insane. The English speaking world is a mere shadow of its former greatness.
Not sure if we would have won Midway without Coral Sea....but we could have let the Japanese have Australia for a season. I don’t think the Aussies ever recovered from the Boer War. They forgot how to be men.
You probably mean WWI or WWII.
Australia was still a great place, with much more limited government, until the late 1970s.
Still is a great place, but the government has become quite intrusive, and is on the edge of being actively hostile to the rural culture and Christians.
As far as I can see, it is from the domination of the culture and government by the coastal cities, and the rise of Progressive government from the late 1970’s on.
