STATE laws should be changed to protect the rights of homeowners and
help vulnerable victims protect themselves against attackers.
That's according to Shooters Union Australia which is calling for the
State Government to change ambiguous laws which leave licensed gun owners at
risk of prosecution for defending their homes from intruders.
SUA vice president David Brown said the reforms should go further and
allow background-checked and licensed residents, including vulnerable women, to
carry guns as protection.
"We believe in everyone's right to be background checked and
licensed. Also the right to keep firearms for the purpose of self-defence as it
is the only means of levelling the playing field against an aggressor," Mr
Brown said.
