Dear Editor,

Mayor Wesely and Chief Casady cast their net way too wide with their planned restrictions on gun ownership (Mayor, Chief Seek Gun Restrictions, January 31.)

Making life difficult for gunowners won't reduce crime, gentlemen. We tried the whole antigun shebang, here in Australia- banning semi-autos, gun registration, buybacks, the lot. And we have seen subsequent increases in violent crime, in certain states, of up to 40%.

Don't make the same mistake we did, Downunder. Target criminals, not responsible gunowners, if you really want to reduce crime.

Yours faithfully
Byron Stander,
Sydney, Australia
