Letter to the Editor
It will be interesting to watch what happens with the ‘Gun Lobby’ (LOL!). I remember the president of the NSW branch of the SSAA (back in the 1980s) telling us about the government placing restrictions on one of the sports. He said, “it doesn’t affect our members”. He was quite happy to have others thrown under the bus as long as he got his. – They have no principles, forget a strong coalition of firearm owners, it’s ‘I got mine Jack’.
Of course, the disarmament agenda is still in effect and it was just a matter of time that there would be another push. Now there is talk about only farmers should have guns, that there is no reason for other people to have such dangerous instruments of destruction.
In which case, the ‘Sport Shooting’ Association of Australia (SSAA) will no longer have a genuine reason as Sport will not be a genuine reason. – The dumb-assess in the SSAA have been hung by their own self interests.
Just imagine if the fools had not subverted firearm owners interest back during the Port Arthur psy-op. Imagine if they had taken a principled stand and demanded a full inquiry of the Port Arthur Massacre. Perhaps the light will finally come on and they will go full throttle against the government and reveal the evidence of Port Arthur, that they publish the evidence, that they go on the radio and TV with the evidence. – If history is any indication, they will figure out a way to throw someone else under the bus.
