Are all guns outlawed in Austrailia or just handguns? It seems to me it would be difficult to outlaw hunting. A guy in Austrailia wants to buy my bipod, and I didn't know quite how to respond.
Protection of yourself, your family or your property is not considered a genuine reason.

Bull...
Thanks, but I went to STI's site and didn't find any link called the Trojan
Self-defense is not a valid reason? It boggles the mind how Austrailian citizens could allow this to happen to them.
What are the pricing structures for these firearms and what is the pricing and restrictions on ammunition?
If keeping a firearm for defense against predators isn't "self defense" then I don't know what is.
The crime figures I gave are rates of crime meaning that they are adjusted for the differences in our population. As for the areas of our countries, the continent of Australia and the contiguous United States are almost exactly the same size.The USA has more population and land than Austrailia.
And America is different how?. Despite being identified as an ideal site for a penal colony, the overwhelming majority of Australia's first settlers were free men and women. My State for example never had any prisoners from England and is a chunk of land bigger than Texas.Australia a county linked to English criminals who exploited the local native population.
No - self defence is not considered a valid reason to purchase a firearm. Self defence is still a valid principle in our laws. I can legally take another person's life with any of my firearms if a jury believes that I did it in self defence.self defense is not a valid reason....so, that means that an austraulian citizens life, or the lives of their loved ones are not worth protecting according to the government
You can logicly follow the reduction in crime logic all the way to the point of locking every citizen up, and having no rights which limit police authority. China operates on such principles.
Stiring rhetoric but the statistics say that your 9.5 times more likely to be killed by a fellow citizen than an Australian is. 80 years of life is better than an eternity in the grave.You only live once, 20 years of freedom is better than 50 on your knees. Statistics be damned.
