Charlie Chaplin's Speech.

Australian Firearms Legislation & Government Corruption.

Article by Ron Owen of Owen Guns Australia.

Bad News Sometimes has a Silver Lining.

Sixteen years ago, in the year 2000. I, like thousands of other law abiding shooters (who are aware) was horrified that all licenced shooters details were to be included in the new Crimtrac data base run by the Federal Government. To be listed with Criminals, known Paedophiles, Sex offenders, Drug addicts and dealers was degrading. Listed, so it was available to the largest criminal organisation in the country, one that is under constant investigation, in every state for corruption and criminal intent, the Police. Controlled by an organisation with the average integrity lower than sewer rats, who would sell their parents and children into slavery for a moments glory on the television, the Government. This to me, was the final plunge into the putrid mire of Communism, Fascism, all are forms of Socialism pressed on us by the most evil means of Fabianism.

As to Crimtracs purpose, if we believed the worst of our politicians they would be guilty of treason and corruption, spying on their own good citizens. If we believed that this was not the case, that their intentions were good, then that would prove that they were imbecilic and need guidance to cross the street.

From the Crimtrac Annual Report 2014–2015 https://www.crimtrac.gov.au/sites/g/files/net526/f/CrimtracAnnualReport2015_8.pdf?v=1446084987  the cost this Orwellian nightmare is enormous.

To spend 74 million per year for 16 years, plus the NATIONAL FIREARMS INTERFACE (NFI) Budget $4.289 million, and the AUSTRALIAN BALLISTIC INFORMATION NETWORK Budget $5.594 million, besides every State Police Firearm Department in Australia is spending multi -millions to duplicate their own records from law abiding citizens spreading their personal details to the criminal corrupt police forces of the world.

Ultimately, it is the licenced shooters, the innocents, who for doing No wrong have all this money extorted from them on the false pretext of public safety. With a cost that would run into many billions of dollars during the last 16 years what good has come from it, has it saved a life, caught a criminal? Last years Crimtrac Annual Report 2014-15 reports that since its inception sixteen years ago their 207 public servants have recorded 16,000 unique firearm templates ( different sorts of firearms) 42,266, cartridge cases, a total of 56,485 identifying pieces of information and have matched up this information with 76 crime scenes in Australia. The Western Australia Police achieved the sixth hit on the national ABIN system.

“In December 2012, police executed a search warrant locating a .45 calibre self-loading pistol. The gun was test fired and the ballistic information entered into the ABIN. A search of the database identified a link to a drive by shooting in the Western suburbs of Sydney in May 2012.New South Wales Police subsequently confirmed this link. Further investigations revealed the recovered handgun was subject to international tracing (serial number) and had been imported into Australia illegally from the USA.”

Do we have 6 convictions of Criminals for all of these billions of dollars, No. I am sure that if there was just one conviction the Annual Report would have mentioned it.

Nicole Rose is now the CEO of CrimTrac, she was the Director of the Office of the NSW Police Commissioner where she was instrumental in the establishment and operation of the NSW Innocence Panel. In 2013, Ms Rose was awarded the Public Service Medal for services to policing. Her 2IC is Mr Walton was appointed CIO in January 2013 and he has more than 30 years’ experience working in government in both Australia and the United Kingdom. They say in there report,
“It will enable police to share data on guns used in crimes, and provides a quick way to match firearm information against a national dataset. This will significantly affect the way Australian police agencies investigate gun-related crime, by linking ballistic evidence from crimes involving firearms both locally and nationally. This will also provide a national picture of criminal use of firearms in Australia, enhancing the capability of Australian police to investigate firearm-related crime and target violent offenders in our community. Our firearms solutions are valuable tools for police to solve firearm-related crime and to prevent gun crime in Australia. Will support police in addressing violent gun-crime.”

What nonsense, when they waste all that time and money tracking people good enough to volunteer information and cannot track the unlicensed and un registered criminals. When in 16 years and after billions of dollars they have a match with six firearms. No record of convictions or a report of their information being the cause of one conviction.

Mad As Alice in the Looking Glass. Truth Only By Accident.
Where is the accountability in this? There is transparency its easy to see through the verbal manure of self justification and gratification for no real result, bar one.
‘Blind Freddy’ can understand the futile waste of recording all the details of the most law abiding part of our community. Only those as ‘Mad as a Hatter’ would believe that those with criminal intent would record any information. So why spend all that money and impose all those costs on us? Are they ‘Mad’, or is it really “People Control” not Gun Control?
Yet, in this report there is some truth, a small grain that should make every shooter in Australia celebrate. It forecasts the winning of our war for firearm freedom. On page 29 it reports that in 2015 there was 1.9 million licenced shooters in Australia and 5 million firearms.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Combine the above information with I suspect the more accurate picture from Inspector Craig Rolls Manager Weapons licencing, QPS. In March this year he stated

“This figure represents a significant concern for Weapons Licensing as we are receiving approximately 350 applications a week, a 50% increase in the last 3 years and cannot continue to effectively process applications with this percentage, or a similar high percentage”

Note, he states a 50% increase in licence applications not 27 %.

Why does he say that this is a “significant concern” well that equated to 18,200 applications per year and when it increases at 50% per year in five years time that is an extra 90,000 applications per year.

This year in Australia we will have at least 2 million licensed shooters that is 10 % of the population, is there 2 million people who play football?  Unlikely, there might be one other group fishermen that could be a larger self interested party, but they do not have to put up with all the impositions and hoops to jump over that firearm owners do. To have a shooters licence we have to be voting age or close to it we should be the most motivated section of our community as we have had to suffer the most from government bureaucracy.

Inspector Craig Rolls was making the warning as shortly we shooters will not be the minority, we will NOT  be the political football that they can kick, whenever they want to serve out more in -justice on us, to make it look like they are doing some ‘feel good’ legislation.

Now, for the first time Shooters can make or break any other political force in this country, that was why our Prime Turncoat put legislation through parliament to disenfranchise smaller parties, but that now could backfire on him. Years ago shooters were in the wilderness, then we discovered the internet and facebook now we have the numbers and the means to communicate with them all.

Powerful Political Force.
The largest “Nosy Parker” in Australia has achieved one single good thing, it has officially told us that we are now a powerful force. All we have to do is to let each and all of us know that we have that force. Now with the internet we can even improve it, if each one of us encouraged and succeeded to help a family member or friend to get a shooters licence, we would not have 2 million licenced shooters in Australia we would have 4 million. Well I never thought I would be encouraging shooters licences, I don’t think they serve any useful purpose, but now there is a newfangled point to it all. It unites us in the largest club in this country, expensive and inconvenient, but a means to end the tyranny that we have suffered for the last twenty years.

We have to wake up the ‘Sleep Walkers’.

The ten thousand subscribers to this bulletin have to spread the message on all mechanisms, we must recruit more militant shooters, people who are willing to sign a petition, write to the ‘letter to the editor’ post on facebook, create websites, send out to email lists and force the politicians to openly accept that we are a political force to be reckoned with. We must point out that before they make a law, that imposes great difficulty to millions of good people that they should prove that it works, to state that ridiculous one liner “If it saves one life, its worth it” should provoke everyone’s immediate responses. So well why not ‘ban prescription medicine’, as logically medicine saves lives, even though mistakes in prescriptions kills thousands besides the over usage. Guns are tools of Human creation, like medicine, or any other product humans can manufacture , they can be used for good, or evil.

If Guns did not Save Lives, Policemen would not wear them at the hip?

Our Government has been allowed to create two separate classes of people, one being the elite Government employee’s who can carry firearms, who can use them to guard the lives and families of government politicians and other employees, and those untrusted citizens, whom the elite refer to as the ‘great unwashed’, whose only role is to work, pay tax and vote for Tweedle dee, or Tweedle Dumber. We cannot Discriminate, we can be prosecuted by the state for just thinking that you have an opinion, you don’t actually even have to express it, yet the Elite, the Police Ministers, the police, and other government employees all exempt from the Weapons Act can thrive, while we are not allowed to even defend ourselves with a spoon full of pepper.

Governance Believe They Are Gods and We Are Sheep.
As with the United States if you prove that more homicides are committed by black people, it would be more logical to address that problem on a racial basis rather than to ignore it. When they blame a tool that by itself has no cause, if there is a problem it will continue un abated. Allowing the politicians to return to it again and again, to fuel their real agenda, People control. When causes are identified like Race or  Economics that cannot be discussed, it would not be ‘Politically Correct” they know that high unemployment areas have higher armed crime rates and homicide rates, logically we should address that problem in that area instead of imposing legislation on un related items in all unaffected areas?
Soon Politicians will come to the realization that our 10% of un happy licenced shooters can keep them out of government, or put them into government, their next tactic will be to try and split licenced shooters into categories backing some against others, but before that happens we can form new parties and destroy old ones. Please never forget  Mr. Wendell Phillips said, “Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty; power is ever stealing from the many to the few. The manna of popular liberty must be gathered each day or it is rotten. The living sap of today outgrows the dead rind of yesterday. The hand entrusted with power becomes, either form human depravity or esprit de corps, the necessary enemy of the people. Only by continued oversight can the democrat in office be prevented from hardening into a despot; only by unintermitted agitation can a people be sufficiently awake to principle not to let liberty be smothered in material prosperity.”

Unfortunately not all Australian gun owners will back other Australian gun owners, this has been proven already. Australian gun owners do not appear to be a special group, they are just like all other Australian citizens. Some care, some don't, so banking on gun owners EVER being a majority when it comes to voting is a big mistake. Sad isn't it.

Australian Citizen's Problems.

Late Hopeland farmer George Bender. 

http://www.smh.com.au/environment/family-of-late-anticoal-seam-gas-farmer-george-bender-vows-to-fight-on-20151027-gkjv3o.html

Australian Citizen’s Problems as of 2/11/2015.

1)    Destruction of forest, pollution of drinking water, contamination of farmland, destruction of farm land, farmer & landholder’s mental health problems due to mining & fracking, the government prioritising mining over farmer’s rights. This will ultimately effect crop production.

2)    Climate change/Global warming due to pollution from fossil fuels such as coal & gas. This in turn is affecting the rise in sea levels, an increase in solar radiation, & crop production which will ultimately lead to Australian produced food shortages & increased food costs.

3)    Increasing cost of local council rates/tax which is in fact illegal because the local councils are NOT a government. Non payment of these rates/taxes leads to the confiscation of private property by these said councils which is also illegal.

4)    Crime. This covers domestic violence (Please note that the government has cut funding to community services that helped women in crisis), robbery, rape, violence against a person or persons, murder, trespass, damage to property, intimidation, home invasion, knowingly polluting & contaminating the environment to the detriment of public health.

5)    The erosion of citizen’s common & human rights. This includes the right to self-defence unconditionally, the right to protect one’s own property, the right to protect one’s family & friends unconditionally, the right to pursue happiness providing it does no harm to others, homelessness.

6)    Gun control & confiscation directed at law abiding licensed firearms owners. This includes the banning of certain firearms, the confiscation of certain firearms, the unfair legislation that makes it difficult to obtain ammunition, the incorrect firearms licence categories for certain firearms, The unfair legislation concerning muzzle-loading firearms use & categorising, the unfair legislation concerning magazine capacities, the difficulties experienced by citizens during normal firearms security checks due to local police ignorance of firearms legislation & ignorance of firearms other than service weapons.

7)    The increasing widespread use of police control over law abiding citizens concerning various club memberships, personal tattoos, use of a motorcycle, the bullying of individuals on the streets to provoke them into committing violence so they can be tasered, pepper sprayed, shot or arrested.

There are no doubt many other problems that need addressing, such as TPP agreement, immigration, & employment & other social & community services, but the purpose here is to highlight the fact that many people believe that these problems are actually being caused & manufactured by the Australian government. Surely no lower income family or even middle class family can deny any of the problems above. We do understand that number 6 is a problem for many non gun owners & anti gun lobbyists who would sooner see their loved ones raped & killed & indeed die themselves, rather than use a firearm for protection. This is their right, though some may not agree with their decision. These people on the whole are ignorant of certain facts, but they are NOT stupid. They fully realise that the police can not in the majority of cases protect them or save them. The police department’s response time to emergencies is very slow & even slower in rural areas. This is not a police problem; it is just a fact of life.

The government appears to be doing nothing to seriously address the problems listed above, & yet the majority of Australians apparently have their heads buried in the sand. Some may not want to “rock the boat”, they are scared of what may happen to them if they complain let alone protest. Others are we suspect are simply apathetic, “she’ll be right mate”. Overall though it is worrying, because this means that the majority of Australian citizens do not give a damn about anyone else but themselves! So long as this is the norm, there will be NO recovering for Australia; there will be NO improvements to our quality of life. On the contrary, things can only get worse & in the end, recovery may no longer be possible.

So what should the Australian public do? Well the first thing that NEEDS doing is a complete change in our political system. This means that our present government should step down & a new political system should be implemented. Perhaps one where citizens vote for people rather than parties. Australians must understand that our present government & indeed the whole political system, is no longer working for the people, it is working for itself only. Our government is as far as I am aware a corporation, as are our local councils.

Finally ask yourself this, when was the last time we had a referendum on an important national decision that effected all Australians? The last one I remember was a referendum on local councils becoming local government & being able to implement new taxes. The majority of Australians voted NO in that referendum, & yet today we have local councils acting as local government & they have indeed introduced a land tax disguised as rates for services rendered!

This paper is open to discussion, but please keep it polite. We have not written this to antagonise or offend people & to the best of our knowledge all the above is true.

So, are we as Australian citizens in trouble, or are these problems a figment of our imagination? Do we need to act, or do you think we should just hang in there & see what happens & hope it all turns out okay?

If you think that we should act upon these major & increasing problems, what do you think we can possibly do within the law to accomplish the changes we need other than just informing people & complaining on various forums?

We welcome suggestions for additions to the list of problems above.

Please share if you think this post is just & sensible & deserves consideration.
Thank you.

Court Allows Police Officer’s Illegal Evidence to be Used

Posted October 22, 2015 by Ugur Nedim & filed under Criminal Law, NSW Courts.

The NSW Criminal Court of Appeal (NSWCCA) recently ruled that the evidence obtained unlawfully by a police officer was admissible in court, because the seriousness of the case and importance of the evidence outweighed the degree of his illegal conduct.

The Unlawful Search

On the 5th of March 2012, Officer Hembrow entered a property to carry out a routine firearms audit upon a man by the name of Paul Thompson, not knowing that Mr Thompson no longer lived there.

While walking on the property, the officer noticed a caged area which contained several cannabis plants. He left the property, obtained a search warrant and returned to find that there were at least 136 cannabis plants and 20 seedlings. A search of the neighbouring property uncovered 5kg of cannabis and 283 plants.

Colin Barnett Is Trying To Criminalise A 'Thing'. Literally.

By New Matilda on March 17, 2015Australian Politics

West Australia’s Barnett government is in the process of criminalising the possession of a “thing”. What kind of “thing”? Well, it could be any “thing” really.

Under anti-protest laws currently before the parliament the police need only suspect a “thing” may be used “for the purpose of preventing a lawful activity”, and the onus is on the ‘thing-haver’ to prove that’s not the case.

Australian Politicians’ Favour Indian Mining Company over Australia and Australians

 October 24, 2015 Michael Robertson Adani, Australia, Australian, Carmichael mine, Coal, Corruption, great barrier reef,Greg Hunt, india, Indian, Josh Frydenberg, Morality

Australian politicians led by Josh Frydenberg argue that the Carmichael mine in Central Queensland should go ahead as Australian’s have a moral obligation to allow the mine as it will save millions of Indian lives, even though this is actually false. Additionally, the Environment Minister Greg Hunt is placing the interests of a corrupt Indian mining company infront of the Australian environment, and Australians who rely upon a healthy environment in-order to make a livng. This is because if the Carmichael mine goes ahead it is likely to cause a great deal of damage to both the Great Barrier Reef and the Carmichael River. Many Australian politicians need to fix their moral compasses and place the interests of the Australian environment and people before those of a foreign company that is known to be corrupt environmental vandals.

The bill also criminalises the creation of “a physical barrier to carrying on the lawful activity”.

If they can’t prove their innocence, offenders will face a year in the slammer or a $12,000 fine – and two years or $24,000 in certain circumstances.
