Human Rights. David Leyonhjelm is correct: Australians should be able to arm themselves against terror

http://www.firearmownersunited.com/2017/06/14/david-leyonhjelm-is-correct-australians-should-be-able-to-arm-themselves-against-terror/

These basic human rights are:

Universal: they belong to all of us – everybody in the world.

Inalienable: they cannot be taken away from us.

Indivisible and interdependent: governments should not be able to pick and choose which rights are respected.

Article 1 Everyone is born free and equal in dignity and with rights.

Article 2 You should never be discriminated against for any reason. Rights belong to all people, whatever our differences.

Article 3 Everyone has the rights to life, liberty and security.

Article 4 No-one shall be held in slavery or servitude.

 Article 5 No-one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.

Article 6 You have the right to be treated as a person in the eyes of the law. Article 7 You have the right to be treated by the law in the same way as everyone else. Everyone has a right to protection against violations of their human rights.

Article 8 If your rights under law are violated, you have the right to see justice done in a court or tribunal.

Article 9 No-one shall be subject to arbitrary arrest, detention or exile. Article 10 You have the right to a fair and public trial by an independent and impartial tribunal.

Article 11 Everyone is to be presumed innocent until proven guilty in a fair trial. No one should be charged with a criminal offence for an act which wasn’t an offence at the time the act was done.

Article 12 No-one has the right to intrude in your private life or interfere with your home and family without good reason. No-one has the right to attack your good name without reason.

Article 13 You have the right to freedom of movement within your country. Everyone has the right to leave a country and to return home.

Article 14 You have the right to seek and to enjoy asylum from persecution in other countries. You may not invoke this right if fleeing just laws in your own country.

Article 15 You have the right to a nationality.

Article 16 You have the right to marry and to raise a family. Men and women have the same rights when they are married and when they are separated. Article 17 You have the right to own property and it cannot randomly be taken away from you.

Article 18 You have the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion and to peacefully express those beliefs in teaching, practice and worship. Article 19 You have the right to freedom of opinion and expression.

Article 20 You have the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association.

Article 21 You have the right to take part in the government of your country. Article 22 As a member of society, you have a right to social security.

Article 23 You have the right to work, to good working conditions, to equal pay for equal work and to form and join unions.

Article 24 You have the right to rest and leisure.

Article 25 You have the right to a decent life, including enough food, clothing, housing, medical care and social services.

Article 26 You have the right to an education.

Article 27 No-one may stop you from participating in the cultural life of your community.

Article 28 You have the right to live in the kind of world where your rights and freedoms are respected.

Article 29 We all have a responsibility to the people around us and should protect their rights and freedoms.

Article 30 There is nothing in this declaration that justifies any person or country taking away the rights to which we are all entitled.

The Australian government has denied us a human rights, as law abiding citizens we SHOULD have the right to protect ourselves & our families, but that right has been taken from us with a law which states that we are not legally allowed to purchase or carry: Pepper spray, Tasers, or guns for the sole purpose of self defence & the defence of our families!

This law does not stop crime, it does not stop home invasions, muggings, beatings, rapes or murders. All it does is leave us defenceless.

So what are you going to do about this? Our government system is totally corrupt to the core, there is little point in begging to the government. I have started petitions, but hardly anyone bothers to sign! You still think we live in a free country? Think again. Most people are totally apathetic to the loss of our human rights & exist with their heads buried in the sand.

Thoughts For The Week. Australia. Owen Guns Bulletin September 2016 Edition 123

Thoughts For The Week

The worlds media have downplayed the emerging militaristic friction in our Asia Pacific area for the last ten years, now China is building military bases in the Spratley Islands and North Korea is exploding 10 kiloton nukes delivered by ballistic missiles fired from submarines. At first you might think Defence is not relevant to Australia’s firearm owners, but please put up with my background information before we get to the punch.

Expanding Buffer Zones.

We should do some Heavy Thinking.
Why does, China want military bases in the Spratley Islands, and why does North Korea want nuclear missiles with a range of 2000 miles? The answer is an old strategy, that it is far better to have to fight a war in someone else’s country rather than your own. As the Roman Empire created buffer states to keep out the barbarians, so too do the Chinese. They give nuclear technology and a vast amount of military equipment to Pakistan, so it can hold back India, they keep Tibet enslaved and supply vast amounts of military hardware to North Korea, so it can face off to Japan and Taiwan and as they see it the main bogy man the USA. We cannot be amazed that North Korea and Vietnam also want to keep any threat away from their own countries so also have to engage in a military game of chess as to who dominates the chess board. That chessboard is of course the Pacific Ocean, this should concern all Australians who think.

Don’t let the people know? We don’t want to Arouse them.

I should not have to spell it out, we all should know this but due to the dumbing down, news service that spend hours on man bites dog stories, or save the rare toad, we are told we are more concerned about how many medals were won at the Olympics. Really, that is not the truth as we are all concerned about the safety of our homes and families.

We were very lucky last time, Japan made a big mistake and attacked the USA. If they had just moved down on Australia. the USA would not have cared.

APPEASERS.
It is due to our spineless leaders, who are from the same mould as the pre World War Two Appeasers like the Prime Ministers Ramsay Macdonald, Stanley Baldwin and Neville Chamberlain, and French foreign Minister Pierre Laval, who all sought to avoid war by feeding smaller countries to Japan, Germany and Italy, to sate the savage beasts. They downplay the internal threat from Islam that demands world domination and they downplay the threats from our northern military dictatorships that also want to dominate our region.

Our fearless leaders, feather their own nests with huge salaries and pension payouts, they take bribes and donations from foreign owned banks and big business yet put themselves about to the populace as clean as driven snow.
Treason.
Last month, the ABC reported businesses with Chinese connections gave Australia’s major parties more than $5.5 million between 2013 and 2015, making them the largest source of foreign-linked donations. The donations were troubling enough for the head of Australia’s spy agency to personally brief leaders of Australia’s major political parties last year about the national security risks. According to the ABC, the security warning from the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation (ASIO) director-general Duncan Lewis included naming donors his agency thought were acting on behalf of the Chinese government.

Much of Australia’s $32.4 billion (2016–2017) defence budget is siphoned off into private overseas accounts leaving a vast continent and our people defenceless and our tiny defence force not ‘cannon fodder’ but like a bite sized, suicide squad. Our 94 Combat aircraft, 59 Abrams tanks, 47 commissioned war ships, with a total staff of 57,982 are struggling to deploy 2,241 soldiers in the field.

Australia.

Force numbers	Battle Tanks	Combat Aircraft	Ships
57982	59	94	47

Just a quick half and hour of research on Google gives us a scary future. Due to America’s debt and economic decline their population demands that they can no longer play the worlds policeman and are insisting that their buffer countries pay for their own defence. Countries like Japan responding to their local threats and are now rearming, but even without an offensive force, Japan’s military dwarfs ours.

and to get a fair comparison this is just some of our northern neighbours.

North Korea

Force numbers	Battle Tanks	Combat Aircraft	Ships
1,190,000	5500	940	810 Inc Auxiliaries

Vietnam.

China

Force numbers	Battle Tanks	Combat Aircraft	Ships
2,285,000	9000	2900	485 plus Auxiliaries

Who do we trust?

None of the above, like Britain in World War Two, the USA more than likely would have other huge problems, when the sand is thrown into the air, the rubber hits the road, the anchor is thrown overboard and our nation is set adrift in a very troubled foaming sea of despair. The USA jumped into the middle east and impressed its competitors with its dismal abilities.

We in Australia are left defenceless by our governments disinterest and inaction we do not even have the manufacturing base, as we had in World War Two that can quickly improve our situation, in fact our governments bribed romance with free trade continues to destroy Australian manufacturing abilities. Ultimately, without the ability to mount our own defence no one is going to help us, besides the fact that we are not worth helping, Singapore and New Zealand will have enough troubles of their own.

We have been Subverted and Betrayed.

Australians have been made house guests of the Sorcerers Apprentice, who has let loose what cannot be controlled, what was not quite so bad yesterday will be much worse today and a nightmare tomorrow. In Australia we have been magically changed from people who used to work, produce and build, into surrogate, subservient, consumers, the lowest human form. We are televised, and advertised out of our senses. We exist in images, not realities. We are given an image of what we are supposed to want and what we are supposed to be, and most people follow it. Hardly anyone notices that the producers have gone, that the factories have closed, the farms turned into National Parks that quality in food, materials or life itself have disappeared.

Even money has changed into an image, the magic card, but what it buys for people is debt enslavement and shoddy goods. The ‘Good Life’ is now a political swindle and should be given a bouquet of flour, but in reality it should be a wreath, but even then it be hard to find one not made out of plastic flowers. We have created a society whose representative figures are politicians who are sold with the soap and cornflakes, they are wooed by plastic Barbie and Ken interviewers who would not know if their backsides were melting. Our young are wooed by singers with no voices, whose only qualifications are a lot of hair, sweat and cheap imported electronic equipment. These are the leaders who have betrayed our nation.

Firearm Owners Our Only Hope.
Where is our hope for the future? Only with the 2,000,000 licensed shooters, or the 2 000,000 or so voters at the last election, who for the first time chose the un advertised, the independent, or small party senators, our nations future has been on a slide into the abyss, now it has a small window, a small chance to survive.

The Point.
I cannot tell you, that the two million licensed shooters with their five million licenced firearms are our nations best asset to deter invasion, nukes versus .22 Lr are not going to win us any battles, but think about this, if our chicken livered politicians surrendered, and flew out to their condo in Florida, the enemy has still to disarm us, before they kill us all. When anyone gets shot with a .22 the only place they want to go to ‘fast’, is hospital. Disarming two million shooters and their friends under those circumstances would be a lot more difficult than John Howards Un Informed buy back, and as John found out totally un successful. They could suffer a million casualties, if Australians chose to fight, rather than join the gas chamber queue.  Yes, we desperately need the tools to manufacture a defence industry. If we had a responsible government it should be doing everything to encourage shooting, hunting, expanding knowledge of ballistic, encouraging industry, rifle and pistol ranges. Instead, we are confronted with suppression, is it any wonder that we suspect their motives and do all we can to replace them. Ron Owen.

The Australian Abbott Government Harboring Terrorists, WHY?

The Abbott government are harboring terrorists. You have to ask yourself why Tony Abbott would do this. My theory is that he wants these Terrorists to make a strike on Australian soil so that he can justify stricter security laws, that may include the further restriction of our rights, and the confiscation of citizen's firearms.

sedition

sɪˈdɪʃ(ə)n/

noun

1. conduct or speech inciting people to rebel against the authority of a state or monarch.

   synonyms:

   incitement (to riot/rebellion), agitation, rabble-rousing, fomentation (of discontent), troublemaking, provocation, inflaming;

Loophole allows IS fighters home without charge

As far as I am concerned, I see this as outright proof that the government is encouraging Terrorist activity in Australia. There is always something else to blame when it goes pear shaped, but I think the government wants this. This will allow them to continue their fear campaign & possibly to further restrict our rights in the name of security.
The Abbott government is expert at creating loopholes !!! You can't tell me that they could not fix this if they really wanted to.

Australian Government Fear Campaign. Where Is It Going?

The so called Port Arthur massacre led to the government making new gun laws, making certain types of guns illegal and they initiated a firearms buy-back scheme. Of course only law abiding Australian citizens complied and handed in their guns, the criminal element in Australia kept their guns.
The crime rate did not go down, and now only criminals can own illegal hand guns, rifles and shotguns. Yet still the anti gun lobby cry for more firearms restrictions. The recent incident in Martin Place in Sydney has created a further cry for legislation. Our not so honourable PM, Mr Tony Abbott made a statement that the assailant, Monis, did in fact own an Australian firearms permit. This is an outright lie, which is what we have come to expect from Mr Abbott.
But this incident in Martin Place has hairs on it, something does not quite make sense and a lot of people are suggesting that Monis was in fact encouraged to take hostages at the Lyndt caffe with the purpose of instigating more fear control and ultimately further firearms restrictions on law abiding Australian citizens.
I realise that I am probably preaching to the converted here, most sensible thinking people already realise that restricting firearms use to law abiding citizens is worthless in regards to curbing crime, and it is very costly to the Australian tax payer. Criminals DO NOT abide by the law, so confiscating law abiding citizen's guns is a no brainer ! We, the legal gun owners have special gun safes, bolted to the floor in our homes so that these firearms can not be stolen. How the police manage to lose so many firearms I can not say, and they are not telling !
Other worrying matters concerning firearms restrictions and terrorist fear campaigns is the fact that these are also measures taken by people who wish to take over a country as a dictator ! Now I can not say if our non illustrious Mr Abbott has such plans or if he is planing a take over in some other way, such as making Australia a republic. This would certainly further restrict our freedoms.

One major move that must be done before taking control of a populace, is the restricting of firearms. This has already been done here in Australia restricting law abiding citizens to only non semi-automatic guns, and no handguns what so ever unless you belong to a pistol club. Even flintlock muzzle-loading guns in Australia require a firearms licence, registration and a permit to purchase ! These guns are an 18th century design, requiring a piece of rock for ignition! How stupid and paranoid is that? Antique muzzle-loading firearms are not restricted, however you are not allowed to actually fire them. I might point out that there is absolutely no difference in the workings of copies of flintlocks and antiques of the same type.
We, the law abiding citizens of Australia sincerely hope that these terrorist fear campaigns instigated by Mr Abbott do not lead to further firearms restrictions, because I personally don't think the Australian gun owning community would stand for it again.
What we do need is higher penalties for firearms offences, and these MUST be enforced. At present, legal gun owners are being treated like criminals. Some Police officers conducting firearms checks in licensed homes are literally looking to find fault. Also many Police officers do not have the training or knowledge to be able to conduct a firearms check correctly, their knowledge of firearms and the firearms legislation is sadly lacking. In my own case this cost me much time and expense that should not have been necessary. 
The so called firearms consultant committee does not and never has existed. This group of so called experts were never formed. So who has made these pointless and senseless decisions which only affect law abiding gun owners? And why? Firearms restrictions are not about public safety, they are not about curbing crime. There is enough evidence from other countries to show that this does not work anyway. Ignorant people feel safer knowing that some guns are restricted, so gun laws pacify, to some extent, the paranoid anti-gun groups and ignorant citizens. That is all it does.
So be on your guard, follow the rules and be a responsible gun owner.
Keith.
