Thoughts for The Week By Ron Owen. Firearms, The Law, & Equality
Persecution.
We all should question why over 2 million licensed shooters in Australia, people who are the pillars of our community, who have had the most stringent background checks, paid thousands of dollars for licences, safety courses, and security are the most bullied members of our community. (
https://acic.govcms.gov.au/sites/g/files/net1491/f/acic_2016-17_annual_report.pdf?v=1508387578 page
132 puts us at 2.02 million licences with 6.03 million registered firearms)

132 puts us at 2.02 million licences with 6.03 million registered firearms)
If anyone is in doubt of this just check out the above website we are
all listed and counted on the Australian Criminal Commissions Data Base, you
can expect police inspections, you can be told that you have to attend more
club shoots, you can be told to dispose of your property and when you want to
purchase a firearm in Queensland and your waiting for a licence you can expect
a response like this “applications have dramatically increased and we are
looking at 13+ weeks before anything is really done, call back in three
months”.
Not as prevalent, but same arrogant “modus operandi” ‘Permits to Acquire’ are continually delayed for many weeks after the time stipulated by the Weapons Regulation 2016,
101 Waiting period for decision on application for permit to acquire
Not as prevalent, but same arrogant “modus operandi” ‘Permits to Acquire’ are continually delayed for many weeks after the time stipulated by the Weapons Regulation 2016,
101 Waiting period for decision on application for permit to acquire
(1) This section prescribes the period for section 42 of the Act.
(2) The period is 28 days after the day the applicant lodged the
application for the permit to acquire the weapon.
(3) However, the period is the remainder of the day on which the
applicant lodged the application for the permit, if—
(a) the applicant already holds a firearm under a licence; or
(b) an authorised officer is satisfied there are exceptional
circumstances.
So why do licenced shooters who have a firearm on their licence have
to wait for weeks on end for the PTA that they have bought and paid for? If our
government cannot make an imposition work, under the law that they enforce on
us, it should not be imposed.
Our politicians should be told in direct terms that the law that they have voted on and impose on us should apply in all cases to everyone. That the Regulation 101 that states that the “period (time) is the remainder of the day on which the applicant lodged the application” has the same force and creates a Duty of compliance as.

Regulation 58 Duty of licensed dealer or licensed armourer if
weapons register is a computer register
(2) The armourer or dealer must, no later than the seventh day of
each month—
(a) produce a print-out of the part of the register that records information
about transactions that took place in the previous month; and
Maximum penalty—10 penalty units.
We Should be All Equal Under the Law.
If we licenced dealers, armours, collectors and shooters can be charged under these regulations, dragged through the injustice system, and fined, lose our firearms, our property, for ignoring a Duty, a time limit imposed by the Regulations in Section 58, then so should the Queensland Police Service, such as the Commissioner or the Authorised Officer, or the civilian staff that work in Weapons Licencing should be prosecuted by the State on the same basis and suffer the same in justice. They should have to pay for their own legal representation and pay their own fines. The law of the land should be applied to us all equally, not a law for the Police and another law for People.

If the licenced shooter is a few days late for a renewal, then your
licence is revoked, your property has to be handed in and you have to pay an
extra application fee and re apply. The Queensland Police, Weapons Licencing
appear to be a law all to themselves, they treat the law as their knife to
twist it into law abiding firearm owners. We must remind our local
Representatives, who are our Members of Parliament that their job is not to
represent their party, but it is to Re Present (represent) the problems of the
constituent to the House of Parliament.
He, or She has the ability to speak directly to the Minister of
Police and get an answer in reply within 48 hours. If not they can, on your
behalf ask the question to the Minister in Parliament. That question can be as
plain as a description of the above breech of the Weapons Regulations 2016 and
they can ask why the culprits, in Weapons Licencing are not being prosecuted?
Maltreatment.
Just recently we had a customer that applied to Weapons Licencing for a Permit to Acquire and he naturally thought it would be quicker if he ticked the box for the PTA to be faxed to Owen Guns. He waited weeks, and weeks and heard nothing from Weapons Licencing, or Owen Guns. Owen Guns had not received the faxed copy of his PTA and have no way of even inquiring about not yet issued PTA forms, the first any Gun shop knows about a PTA fax, is when they arrive in the machine. The customer phoned Owen Guns and then Weapons Licencing eventually, weeks later told the customer that his PTA had been sent to Owen Guns. Owen Guns had at no time received this fax from Weapons licencing, hundreds of others but not this one.Naturally the customer asked Weapons Licencing to fax a copy again, but they refused and told the customer to re-apply if he wanted to still purchase his firearm as they will not send it twice.

Serfdom.
The customer was a policeman and did not want to complain to his local member as it would cause problems with his employment, so in a way he is enslaved to a further degree than those of us who are at least free to complain. However, how many other people are so intimidated by our masters that they will not make a formal complaint to the Representatives? These local MPs are the people who vote to impose this slavery on law abiding firearm owners and if we do not tell them that the system is going very wrong, they will continue to use the rod on our backs.

Tyrannies Tools.
How does the 100,000 combined membership of Australia’s political parties enslave 2 million licenced firearm owners, just one of our associations has 186,000 members, this dwarfs the largest political party in Australia the Liberal Party that at best has 50,000 members?

What is the great tool that they use to keep us in their legislative
chains?
The answer to that, is our Apathy and Appeasement, but the catalyst is propaganda by the mainstream media as they manufacture both the cause and the effect.

The Manufacture of Consent. We Taxpayers pay for our own Propaganda
Chains.
The greatest aids to State propaganda are the State Television Channels, they are aided by the Bank (via loans for Shares to various billionaires, whom they make or break, such as Skase, Bond, Murdock) owned television channels.

The Power of State Propaganda Is Easy To Prove.
Adolph Hitler knew and used all of his propaganda machines to support that doctrine, his genius of propaganda Dr Joseph Gobbals who admitted openly, with these two quotes, “The truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
“It would not be impossible to prove with sufficient repetition and a
psychological understanding of the people concerned that a square is in fact a
circle. They are mere words, and words can be molded until they clothe ideas
and disguise. This is the secret of propaganda: Those who are to be persuaded
by it should be completely immersed in the ideas of the propaganda, without
ever noticing that they are being immersed in it.”
The Blatant Bias of the State Channels Are Easy To Prove
When it comes to the ABC and SBS the Prime government allows them to run an information protection racket shielding its flavoured information from open scrutiny and vigorous debate.

Its like the ‘Politburo’ discussing if they should continue to implement Communism. If the consequence were not so tragic it would be comical.
Besides, constant attacks of lawful firearm ownership, the ownership of property and the rights of self defence, with every Terror Attack they will never, ever, mention Islam, Muslims, ISIS they will skip all of that to tell you that peacefull demonstrations are rioting Neo Nazis, they will show some pathetic starving women and children as refugee’s when really they are ISIS warriors waiting to go on leave in our suburbs.
It is not news that the ABC is Fake News, What is News is that ABC
Fakery Factory has government approval.
That the ABC is Fake News is not new. What’s new is that the ABC’s fakery is now entrenched. Taxpayers finance this ABC factory that produces lies like the ones shown in that truthful brilliant movie “Wag The Dog” on a daily basis, it lies by omission, distorts by selection and excludes inconvenient truths. The ABC and SBS is now the gumshield of socialist, activists dedicated to the destruction of Australia and the whole Western Civilisation. Its reporting of events feed the gullible audiences a deliberately pink and green perspective on all topics.
Nowhere is this more obvious than its protection of Islam. No discussion of the vicious expansionist objectives of the Islamists is allowed in programmes; news coverage successfully suppresses facts on which viewers and listeners might draw conclusions unfavourable to Muslims.

“You’ll never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.”
Some Examples.
Some Examples.
A) The attack on pedestrians in Barcelona. The ABC sent two senior
reporters from London to cover the aftermath of the atrocity. Over several days
of reporting nightly they managed to avoid mentioning Islam which was the
ideology that energized the perpetrators.
B) Ten hours after ISIS had claimed responsibility for
running down men, women and children with a truck, the ABC’s 7pm TV news
bulletin aired this exchange: News anchor Jeremey Fernandez: “What more do
we know about who carried out this attack?” Senior reporter James
Glenday: “Police are focusing on the 17-year-old driver of the van, but
they believed that as many as eight people have been involved in the planning
of the attack here.” A deliberate avoidance of the direct question.
This refusal to call out Islamic terrorists, ISIS, the Caliphate or other extreme Muslims is now endemic. Ever since the first Paris attacks, when correspondents Barbara Miller and Lisa Millar danced cleverly around the question of responsibility, ABC News has worked tirelessly to avoid naming Muslims or Islam.

When President Trump had been miss informed and suggested that there
was violence from both sides in the streets, he gave new cause to attack his
“white supremacy”. So we were served by the ABC with replays of the mother of
Heather Heyer, killed in a deliberate car crash: “She went to the demonstration
to make the world a better place.” This sanctimonious gush encapsulates the
ABC’s policy of replacing facts with sentimentality.
C) The Charlottsville riot was a heaven-sent event with which to beat
the alternative philosophy of the right wing. This began with the Left campaign
which was building for months, if not years, to remove all historical traces of
the South’s part in the Civil War, its flag and its champions. Completely
ignoring the incitement of the hard-left of communism the Southern Poverty Law
Centre, the ABC deliberately characterized the events as an upsurge of Nazism
and white supremacy.
The ABC’s Aboriginal propagandist, (with a deeper sun tan than he had
in passed years) Stan Grant, has now picked up the torch from his American
anti-statue heroes. He has taken aim at the James Cook statue in Sydney’s Hyde
Park, “Americans are tearing down the monuments to hate, but we remain
oblivious to ours.” he states.
What hate did poor old Captain Cook have?
Grant’s unsubtle stirring divides Australia by perpetrating the myth of Aboriginal cultural equality. He dares not admit that, for the civilised world, Australia and its stone-age inhabitants simply did not exist. He will not acknowledge that, as the skilled navigator mapped the east coast of Australia, he was meeting nomadic peoples who culturally, socially, economically and technologically had merely marked time for thousands of years. He omits to mention that Aboriginals would not exist today if British settlement had Not occurred, as the Maoris, or Japanese would have taken Australia and wiped out all the local inhabitants.

The ungrateful spites like Stan Grant pick away at symbols such as
Australia Day now, but they are not far from tearing at the deeper foundations
of our modern society. Grant’s spurious call for an end to what he terms the
“great silence” about our indigenous history is merely self-promotion, via a
coded call for hate.
Treason Re -visited.
As law abiding firearm owners who for many years have experienced, a very confusing aspect of the National/ Liberal Party which has been their continued penchant for betrayinng their traditional allies and kissing their enemies backsides. Yet again, with the ABC/SBS is another example of how the National /Liberals Party delivers their membership the slops and gives pots of gold to their sworn enemies. But Why?

In 2013 Sunshine Coast University research found that 73.6 per cent
of ABC journalists support Labor or the Greens or voted for the Greens. As
Chris Kenny wrote in The Weekend Australian, the “federal vote ceiling” for the
Greens is just over 10 per cent. On those figures, the ABC’s staff profile is
highly unrepresentative of the Australian general public. That was reported
in, www.theaustralian.com.au/opinion/columnists/jennifer-oriel/diversity-of-thought-practically-whitewashed-by-pc-ideology/news-story/9d16179ec45fe24f6b05072f64540ec7

Over the years ABC insiders have said that this bias is indeed
entrenched in the organisation. Let me offer just three representative quotes
here. Some two decades ago ABC presenter and homosexual Robert Dessaix actually
said this:
“The political correctness of the ABC is extraordinary. There’s no leeway in anything to do with race or gender or politics. There is only one attitude you can have to Aborigines, to multiculturalism and to feminism. I have to tailor what I say to the reigning ideology of the ABC. As for career prospects in this bastion of gay men and feminists, heterosexual males may as well go and commit suicide.”

As for career prospects in this bastion of gay men and feminists, heterosexual males may as well go and commit suicide.”
Around 13 years ago another homosexual and ABC regular, David Marr
put it this way:
“The natural culture of journalism is kind of vaguely soft-Left inquiry sceptical of authority. I mean, that’s just the world out of which journalists come. If they don’t come out of that world, they really can’t be reporters. You know, just find another job.”
“The natural culture of journalism is kind of vaguely soft-Left inquiry sceptical of authority. I mean, that’s just the world out of which journalists come. If they don’t come out of that world, they really can’t be reporters. You know, just find another job.”
How many more quotes along these lines are needed? How many more
studies are needed? The ABC is full of secular lefties, many of whom hate law
abiding firearm owners, hate Christianity and hate any type of individualis. Is
it any wonder we find all this bigotry and bias spewing forth from the ABC on a
daily basis?
Just in case all that does not yet convince you about the secular left’s stranglehold on the ABC, consider this massively revealing bit of information:

Because the political commentators of the Left media are either intermingled or married to the left politicians. It’s a family thing and they protect their own.

How could creeps like Professor Paul Wilson, one of the ABC anti gun
heros or Rolf Harris, Jimmy Saville and the likes of Harvey Weinstein get away
with their crimes in such a public area, why were they protected for in some
cases 40 years? Now that their has been a change of direction in US politics
more creeps are being uncovered Harvey Weinstein is now facing criminal
charges, amid accusations of rape, as more and more women speak up and complain
about his abuse such as these three.

Well, back here in Australia, News Corp columnist Miranda Devine had the answer:

Miranda Devine said, bizarrely, it was Weinstein’s left-wing politics
that had kept him off the hook. Including his friendship with Hillary Clinton
and President Obama. And his donations to the Democrats. But Miranda Devine’s
explanation on 2GB radio was even more precise than that:
MIRANDA DEVINE: “The left has a massive protection racket going.
And you can see it works in Australia as well, it’s not just Hollywood …”
So, nothing to do with Weinstein’s money and power, or his ability to
make and break female stars? “NO stated Miranda Devine it is, far more
sinister”. 2GB, Nights with Steve Price, 10 October, 2017

and feminism and open borders, abortion, and feminism, climate change, how can
you forget that …”

you do all of that then you can get away with blue murder and you buy yourself

Complain about Immigration and you are a Racist.
Dick Smith claimed in an interview with Fairfax Media that both Labor
and Liberal politicians have told him privately that they agree with his calls
to cut immigration to avoid future social and environmental fracturing.
But he claimed they were afraid to speak out publicly because the ABC
will label them ‘Racist’.”This is warping our democratic process, it is
basically treasonous,” he said.
He claims ABC television’s news and current affairs has deliberately
ignored his campaign over the issue. Last month, Smith spent $1 million on his
version of the “Grim Reaper” AIDS adverts as a warning against population
growth. Read more at http://www.adnews.com.au/news/dick-smith-to-launch-attack-ads-on-treasonous-bias-abc#xHvx47DBMX5j0JkO.99

ABC Media Watch host Paul Barry defends Yassmin Abdel-Magied’s and
writes off her Anzac Day comments as just “tactless”.
Abdel-Magied used to present a round-up of ABC news on Saturday
morning. She’s also appeared as a guest on Q&A and The Drum. And she partly
owes those roles to being Muslim, black and a woman. This is only one of many
instances of the ABC being both racist and pro-Muslim in its hiring.
But think this through. The ABC has hired this inexperienced and
unwise 26 year old on the understanding that she is Muslim, which sends her a
message. Stay Muslim, or else your job is in danger.
Then there are the ABC’s other similar hirings of celebrity Muslims.
There’s Waleed Aly and his wife Susan Carland, with Maha Abdo and Silma Ihram
appearing regularly as ABC panellists. Note that all the women covering their
heads. The ABC seems to have no interest in hiring women who have left Islam or
who have their head uncovered and thus are not identifiably Muslim. No Muslim
feminists.
This means the ABC promotes a relatively strict form of Islam, and
largely uncritically. It does not give the same promotion to any other faith,
including ones less hostile to our values and freedoms.
The Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), is now either
outrightly dedicated to, or at least heavily skewed in its presentation towards
servicing the needs of the left wing agenda; in fact, its blatant bias has
become something of a national joke, but its not funny it is deadly dangerous
and very powerful, it affects the politicians, the Courts, the police and will
promote apathy and appeasement within our own communities. Our national
broadcasters serve no purpose now other than to carry out the full philosophy
of Dr Goebbels “It would not be impossible to prove with sufficient
repetition and a psychological understanding of the people concerned that a
square is in fact a circle. They are mere words, and words can be molded until
they clothe ideas and disguise. This is the secret of propaganda: Those who are
to be persuaded by it should be completely immersed in the ideas of the

Otto and Elise Hampel
Just imagine the nightmare, as you wake up to all what going wrong
but are unable to do anything about it. Like the example of Otto and Elise
Hampel a working-class couple who in 1940 awoke to the fact that they were
enslaved by the Third Reich that the system of government was morally wrong and
corrupt and because they had no other method of communication open to them
carefully created a simple method of protest while living in Berlin during
World War II. The Hampels undertook efforts to encourage resistance against the
Third Reich. They hand-wrote over 200 postcards, dropping them into mailboxes
and leaving them in stairwells in Berlin, often near Wedding, where they lived.
The postcards urged people to refuse to cooperate with the Nazis, to refrain
from donating money, to refuse military service, and to overthrow Hitler.
Although all but 18 of these postcard were immediately brought to the Gestapo,
it took two years for the Gestapo to find the couple.
It made no difference that Otto Hampel had served in the German Army in World War One. Otto openly admitted it, to try to save his wife and declared to the police that he was happy to be able to protest against Hitler and the Third Reich. At trial at the Volksgerichtshof, the Nazi “People’s Court”, the Hampels were convicted of Wehrkraftzersetzung and of “preparing for high treason”they were both tried, and decapitated by guillotine in Berlin’s Plötzensee Prison in April 1943.

Judge Roland Freisler sentenced the Hamples to death, Which was his
finding in 90% of his cases.
The Hampels surely knew how hopeless it was to go up against the
might of the Nazi machine but they still decided that if they did not at least
try to do something about the situation then nothing would truly happen to
change anything. They believed that if they could throw a small part of sand
into the machine it would slowly grind to a halt. It did not work and showed
how successful the propaganda machine was when only 18 out of 230 were not
handed to the police.
I know that I could never be as brave as they were. What brave people Otto& Elise Hampel to stand up for truth when there country men were to scared to do anything to bring down that tyranny.
That is why the State left wing propaganda from the ABC and other media outlets should not be a national joke, if this propaganda machine is not curtailed we or our children will be in the same situation as Mr and Mrs Hampel. Where will we find their bravery, their spirit to resist when all are infected by the virus of State media control.
This problem suppresses freedom in Australia, this allows the government to rule by defusing our culture our way of life. Our only chance is for the Australian Shooting Sports to create and build our own media channel something that can shine the spotlight on the Truth.
There is no Spring without Winter, without Mistakes there is no Learning. There is no Life without Death, without Doubts there is no Faith. There is no Peace without War, without Fear there is no Courage. For without Mistakes, Doubts and Fears there are no pathways to Wisdom.

There is no Spring without Winter, without Mistakes there is no Learning. There is no Life without Death, without Doubts there is no Faith. There is no Peace without War, without Fear there is no Courage. For without Mistakes, Doubts and Fears there are no pathways to Wisdom.

Voting For Your Rights, By Ron Owen.
Thoughts For The Week.
Get Political for Two Weeks and Make a Difference to Our Future.
Now is the Time to get political, even if you have to miss out on a few
shooting events.
Firstly, and most importantly contact candidates and check their
credentials. Ask them to convince you that they will persistently work to
achieve
If you do nothing else, that small effort of canvassing candidates
will cause change, as that will alert candidates to which issue they won or
lost the election.
in a five candidate election a party with 22% of the vote can have a
majority
and 78% of the electorate can hate his guts. When second and third preferences
are counted if the candidate does not get over 50% of the first preferences
that does not happen and a candidate that is more suited to
most of the peoples ideas wins.
The LNP have to be counted as in Coalition with Labor. They Vote with
Labor, so they are Labor.
In an article printed in several Queensland newspapers where in a meeting with
LNP Members of Parliament, Tony Perrett MP (our local member) and Dr Christian
Rowan MP for Moggill and Shadow Minister for Environment and Heritage
Protection I was correctly quoted as stating,
own Category H firearms then voted again to support the Labor party’s Weapons
Legislation (Lever Action Shotguns NFA) Amendment Regulation
2017.
If the LNP votes with Labor, if they have mutually beneficial deals
with Labor they are part and parcel of Labor, we have to deal with them
the same way we deal with Labor, we vote against them.
with the Katter Party and One Nation Party. We all here in Gympie, hoped that
he would have stood as an Independent for the forthcoming election, but he has
chosen to remain with the LNP and as his party has caused so much pain for law
abiding firearm owners, we cannot vote for the LNP, or Labor, or the Greens. I
admire Mr Perrett for crossing the floor and would always want to count him as
one of my friends, but cannot help him, as that would assist the LNP who will
always betray firearm owners.
On November 2, 2017 LNP Shadow Minister for the Environment Christian Rowan MP
announced in Gympie that the LNP would grant a lease of the land in the Curra
State Forest, and provide $150,000 grant to the Cooloola Range Complex
Association Inc to progress this facility. (Since that time One Nation has
given the Association a written pact that if they have the balance of power
Cooloola Range Complex Association would get the range complex site and
$500,000 to build a world class facility.)
As I am the president of the Cooloola Range Complex Association Inc this
announcement was made at the Owen Guns business premises, with Mr Perrett in
attendance. Of course, as the campaign to regain our centrefire shooting range
in Gympie has been a 25 year battle, I was very pleased to hear that news and
told them so, but also reminded them that their LNP government had been in
power several times during the last 25 years and last time in 2012, the
minister had even given an Agreement in Principle, but continually delayed and
procrastinated, preventing the project from proceeding. We also are fully aware
that the only reason that we are getting this promise after 25 years is that
the ‘One Nation party’ is now a real threat to their seats in the house of
parliament. Without the rise of One Nation the promise would not have been
forthcoming. This promise is only on the proviso that the LNP wins the forthcoming
election.
I reminded Mr Perrett and Dr Rowan that as the LNP had betrayed the firearm
owners yet again and had twice voted with the Labor Party to impose further
impositions on law abiding firearm owners their chances of re-election were greatly
reduced and that as we spoke the firearm industry and shooting associations
were raising a million dollars to ensure their electoral demise.
Dr Rowan suggested that in politics everything was a trade-off, a compromise
and that he felt that even though he knew what they were voting for was wrong,
the LNP was a better alternative than Labor and to do some good he had to stick
with the LNP.
I reminded him that what he had described was in legal circles called
the Nuremberg defence, where German Nazi SS soldiers admitted to knowing that
they had done wrong, but blamed their superior officers for making the
decisions.
Is Firearm Ownerships a Right or Responsibility?
As at times we all have to debate the reasons for Firearm Ownership with
people who for many reasons have only had emotional negative thoughts about
firearms so we need to identify the correct logic in our philosophy so we can
properly communicate to people who have had no experience with firearms. A
friend of mine raised the issue as a question,

Is the Australian Government a registered Corporation in the USA?!
Is the Australian Government a registered corporation? As I understand it, and I must admit that I am not in any way legally minded or very knowledgeable in regards to politics, the idea of a corporation is to make money for it's investors. Now Australian citizens are not investors in a monetary sense IF the Australian Government is a corporation. So, we can't earn any dividends from this corporation, but it is in the interest of the corporation NOT to spend money unless it can also make money.
Funding cuts to public services are obviously making money for someone, but certainly not us. Money spent of firearms registration comes out of our pockets, and again is not for our benefit. Money spent on gun control and gun confiscation is again payed for from our taxes, but again does not benefit us in any way or form. We work all our lives, and part of the deal was that we get a pension when we retire, but again, pensions have been cut and the retirement age extended! All this is putting money into the government coffers, but we the law abiding citizens are not receiving any benefits.
So, can anyone throw any light on this Australian government corporation thing? Is it fact or fiction? Is the Australian government a USA registered corporation?

Thoughts For The Week By Ron Owen.
Thoughts For The Week.
2017. An election in Queensland which offers to change our nation and will vibrate and inspire the world. That is of course, “IF” the apathetic Firearm Owners of Queensland turn the telly off and aid the people who support them, to replace those corrupt puppets of the internationalist. A very big “IF” of course, but the key has turned. The 2016 Federal election where 22 % of the voters excluded the major parties, Brexit, Trump, Le Pen, Geert Wilders are showing that the mainstream media is losing its grip on the minds of the people. They call it populist, but it’s the internet that exposes the fake news that has been rammed down our throats on the 6 o’clock news.

Do YOU Want A Free Country Again.
The 2 million licensed shooters in Australia can make this happen. At the last federal election there were 13 million voters and our shooting companions are nearly 18 % of them, that is enough for us to chose which government rules this country.
We are now the largest single interest group on the Australian political landscape, we just have to be the best organised lobby group.
Of course the main party hacks will bring out that old furphy, ‘if the aircraft is having a few problems would you ask farmer plod sitting in the back economy seats to come and fly the plane.’ Besides, it’s not being relative and just an rhetorical trick, if we made a simile between the plane and our country, our pilots – sold out to another country, baled out and left us in a screaming power dive towards the rocks, anyone who pulled up the joy stick and levelled up the plane would be appreciated and loved by all the passengers.

“Get out, with the only parachutes before it hits the Rocks.”
We do not need professional politicians, we need honesty. Not
political guile, we need commitment to our cause, or we are wasting our time
and energy.
The LNP, knows it has to oppose the Adler Ban or it will drive 600,00
voters into supporting One Nation. They also know that if they oppose it, as
the numbers are not there for their Labour Government either the Premier dumps
the National Firearm Agreement (betrayal) and keeps governing or has to go to
an election.

One Nation is changing its policy to reflect the end of the NFA, the end of Permits to Acquire, if it does not do this soon we have a host of other new parties to chose from. Just direct your preferences away from the international socialists and vote for KAP or Shooters Party, or Liberal Democrats. In Queensland, instead of an Adler Ban we have an election, and an election that more than likely will ensure that the Adler Ban never happens. An election that turns this whole country around.

We might not get the leader this country needs in this election, but
we have a chance to take back our country from international policies, so we
must work for it. They were imposed on us like a black cloud in 1996 and the
suppression became worse in 2003, if we break it in Queensland the NFA will
fall apart like a deck of cards.
The Rights our forefathers won with blood, four hundred years ago,
the right to defend our families and ourselves, the right to own the property
gained by our effort, the right to chose who we allow into our country, the
rights to freedom of speech. All were taken from us within those few years. It
has been a long road back, but now we have the numbers and at last the people
have the ability to freely view what is happening in the world, instantly.
The people of Australia need a genuine leader like the ex coal miner
Andrew Fisher, Member for Gympie who established the Commonwealth Bank, The
Royal Australian Navy, who fought for the ‘White Australia Policy’ and resigned
as Prime Minister when his own party wanted National Conscription. He might not
have been right on all issues, but he was a fierce patriot and had the courage
of his own personal convictions. We don’t want our leaders changing the
original oath to go into parliament, we don’t want them taking the oath on the
Koran or giving allegiance to Islam, or the United Nations.
We need a leader that can prove that they have a personal emotional bond to our country and its history. That they love Australia and its flag. That they love Australia from the depths of their heart and soul. That this country carved from the wilderness by our founding fathers will never submit, never give up its freedoms, never fall under the control of the internationalists, or Islamic’s.
A leader who will oppose blow for blow the extreme violence and
restrictions of liberties that multiply throughout our country from the growth
of Islamist fundamentalism. That they understand the worry of millions of
parents each day about the state of our country and the world we will leave as
a heritage to our children.
That they will fight to restore the ancient liberties, the rights to
property, the right to defend oneself and their families, the right to defend
that property, the right to free speech, that the punishment should fit the
crime and not allow the victims to be confronted by criminals who are now
defended by the law.
This leader must believe and say that they are first and foremost an
Australian, that they personally understand the people’s misery, the feelings
of insecurity, from perpetual violence. Australia has been torn apart by
two savage dogs, criminals on one side and the government on the other.
Australians must chose either to continue with those who have lied,
failed, and betrayed them, or decide to put Australia back in order and in the
hands of the people.
They must say that they want to live in the old free Australia, a
secure, prosperous, united, just, proud Australia.
It’s your choice, we now have the numbers, if you want it to happen,
we have to get motivated, write to politicians inform them of your
opinions, what you require of them, ask them what they are going to do about
it. If you find one that you believe will do the job, work hard to get them
elected, but vet them carefully.
For instance, in the current One Nation policy as of Sunday the 19th of
February 2017 it still has the words, “Current gun laws are adequate and should
remain unchanged”, Repeatedly, I have been informed by candidates and senior
party officials that those words will be removed and a new policy will be
circulated but nothing yet has occurred.
In the late 1990s we had a One Nation candidate in Gympie who had a
meeting with all the local shooting clubs and pledged his allegiance to improve
gun laws, we recorded the meeting, a few days later we had one of our members
phone the candidate up making out that he was anti gun and that he did not want
Australia to go like the USA. Of course our Gympie One Nation candidate swore
black and blue that he was for strict gun controls and could not see any reason
at all for anyone to own more than a shotgun or .22. This too, we recorded
and sent both recordings to One Nations headquarters in Brisbane, asking for
the candidate to be replaced. They would not do this, so we ensured that he was
never elected for parliament. We shooters here in Gympie have helped One Nation
in other electorates.
The Empire Builders.
Empire Building Police, minimise shooter licence numbers so that Politicians do not become afraid of the electoral fall out from Extreme Dictatorial Gun laws. Then maximise shooter licence numbers to 600,000 to explain why shooters wait for seven months for a licence, or when asking for more staff and a greater slice of the tax payers budget.

Shooters Union Queensland wrote to the Police Minister asking, How
many licenced shooters were in Queensland? They were told that the 230,000
reported in the media was an incorrect figure as some shooters, such as pistol
shooters had two licences. The real figure was 190,000.
When Firearm Designers Collectors Association Inc asked Weapons
Licencing at a meeting in 2015, how many licenced Pistol Shooters were in
Queensland we were told 6000. Yet they allowed 40,000 for the above doubling up
on licences?
Would the Queensland Police really purposely lie to protect their
Empire in Weapons licencing? It certainly seems that way.

Dear Charles
Please find below the response received from the Office of the
Minister for Police, Fire and Emergency.
………
“Our position on weapons licences has not changed. ……..With 600,000 plus licences in Queensland alone, it is simpler for a delegated approving officer under the act (which is police) to approve a weapon or the licence at the time. …………… A weapons licence is for a specific category of weapon, and a PTA is for a specific weapon………”

When Queensland Police want to minimise the effect of the Firearm Vote to Politicians they have 200,000 shooting licences, when they want to maximise the amount of work to get more staff, or more money they have 600,000 shooting licences. Simple really, but this time they are not just lying to the media, or a shooting body, this time hopefully they have told the truth. As just after this licencing system began in Queensland back in 1997 Inspector Mc Comb OIC weapons branch reported that we had 195,000 shooter licences back then and the Police admitted for many years a 16 % increase, so on that increase it look like the 600,000 figure will be the correct one.

As The Police Minister has used that 600,000 figure in his letter,
not just to Charles but to his local Member of Parliament Trevor
Ruthenberg MP and lying or just misinforming parliament is a big offence. They
get removed from parliament for things like this.
The Queensland Police know well that 600,000 voters and their
families and friends can change their world. As only 2,445,815 voted
at the last state election, Licenced Shooters could effect over half of those
votes.
We are no longer a minority. On page 29 of the Crimtrac Annual reports
2015 there was 1.9 million licenced shooters in Australia and 5 million
firearms.
…...........2011–12 2012–13 2013–14 2014–15
% increase annum
Total No of guns
4.4m 4.6m 3.7m 5,087,765 37%
4.4m 4.6m 3.7m 5,087,765 37%
Total No of Lic shooters
N/A 1.7m 1.5m 1,912,188 27%
N/A 1.7m 1.5m 1,912,188 27%
Latest figures from Crimtrac’s 2016 report, which due to amalgamating
two separate systems delayed the reporting for the full year was Number of
Firearms 5,798,980 and Number of licenced firearm owners 1,973,522. We
are now in 2017, their figures would be already a year old so we would have in
excess of 2 million shooters in Australia. Many people still legally shoot as
visitors at rifle ranges and clubs. Many employees of farmers use
firearms on their employers licence.
With 2,000,000 shooters in Australia, could there honestly be only
190,000 in Queensland, that’s less than 10 %, in one of the largest shooting
states. Only NSW would have more than us, and Queensland has been
inundated with ex-Victorians.
Further evidence as to large numbers was received in March 2016.
From Inspector Craig Rolls Manager Weapons licencing, QPS. In March
(2016) 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 % as
what was recorded Nationally in the Crimtrac Report.
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. That 18,200
applications per year is a statement in itself that the 190,000 figure is not
enough.
Further Evidence that Queensland Police are playing ducks and drakes
with the Firearm Register numbers is from our local MP.
In a Question On Notice, last sitting of parliament. Tony Perrett MP
asked the Minister for Police, Mark Ryan,
“how many weapons licence holders there are (by category) in the
Gympie Electorate,”
and in Queensland (broken down by post code)?
“Astonishingly, the Minister could not answer.
“He said that the body in charge of all our weapons licensing, the
Queensland Police Service Weapons Licensing, had advised that the numbers
were imprecise as multiple categories may be registered to one licence and
multiple licences may be registered to one person.
“In other words they have absolutely no idea of how many weapons
holders are in each region in Queensland.
Yet the Weapons Act 1990 says they have to know.
Division 4 Firearms register
49 Commissioner to maintain firearms register
(1) The commissioner must establish and maintain a record (the
firearms register) of all firearms in Queensland.
Maintaining that register is the cause of all the pain and derision
of Permits to Acquire, $37.00 fees and Form 10s, countless hours of time spent
at Police Stations, and Police visits to your homes, checking that the guns on
your list are registered to you.
Should the same penalty that applies to Firearm Dealers be applied to
the Police Commissioner?
71 Licensed dealers and armourers to keep register
(1) A licensed dealer or licensed armourer must keep at the premises
stated on the licence a weapons register. Maximum penalty—20 penalty units or 6
months imprisonment.
(2) A licensed dealer or licensed armourer must, for each transaction
involving a weapon, enter immediately in the weapons register the particulars
prescribed under a regulation.
Maximum penalty—20 penalty units or 6 months imprisonment.
If they do not have precise numbers of licences, they must not know
who has a licence, so what is the point of putting thousands of voters through
the pain and derision of compliance?
This should cause flashing lights in a real journalist brain as it’s
an obvious lie to cover up the numbers.
Then a few weeks ago we had Jackie Trad the Labour Deputy
Premier using the tragedy of the Lindt Café siege to score political points
again targeting law-abiding firearm owners.
Trad posted on her Facebook page on January 28, and tells her simple
followers that “after the Martin Place siege, a coronial inquest found that a
review needed to happen over lever-action shotguns, like the Adler shotgun”.
When in fact the Martin Place Siege Review Recommendations Page IX it
stated.
6. The Commonwealth, States and Territories should simplify the
regulation of the legal firearms market through an update of the technical
elements of the National Firearms Agreement.”
And again
The Senate Legal and Constitutional Affairs References Committee, on
Ability of Australian law enforcement authorities to eliminate gun-related
violence in the community. They met over an 18 month study and investigated
over 400 submission, including submission from every State police force. In
April 2015 it gave its findings in Commonwealth of Australia document ISBN
978-1-76010-187-9.
The findings by the majority of Senators was best finalised by their
Recommendation 5
“1.225 The majority of Senators attending the inquiry recommend State
and territory governments investigate avenues to deregulate the firearm
industry to ease the economic burden on governments, industry and legal firearm
users.”
STOP THEM STEALING OUR RIGHTS AT THE NEXT ELECTION.
Yet again we have this Jackie Trad using law abiding firearm owners
as the whipping post, not for an instant would she see the hypocrisy of her
saying “That we should not discriminate against Muslims for the actions of a
few”. When firearm owners are discriminated, fined, penalised, oppressed,
property taken, when we are totally innocent. We are tired of being the
‘Scapegoats’ we are made to feel like their “Whipping Dogs’, when politicians
have problem, they make excuses for the guilty and go out and Whip licensed
firearm owners again. Yet again government is protecting the guilty and
punishing the innocent. Governments for years have written to me and many of
our FOAA members stating, “Strike a balance between the interests of licensed
Gun Owners and the need of the broader community to live safely and securely”.
Then they blame, the “Heightening threat environment.” yet instead of
addressing the problem, Governments collectively have committed to import
hundreds of thousands of more Islamic threats. So law abiding firearm owners
suffer constantly for all governments decisions. Now is the time for change.
Bring on this election, work hard to remove the National Firearm
Agreement, end Long Arm Registration and look forward to a return to the
Australia we used to be proud of.
