The gun lobby says it's "winning". The Federal Government's plan for a National Firearms Register will take until at least 2028. Over 30 years after states & territories agreed we need one. We're calling for urgent action on the National Firearms Register. ✍️ Sign: theaus.in/firearm_regi...

And PHON no doubt for a pretty stipend! $$$$$ Lest we forget the last time Pawleen’s crew tried to extort money for NRA support in Aust!

As a former corporate action man, I could have the register in place in 6 months. 2028 is a joke and reflects badly on @albomp.bsky.social like so many things these days. Public service gross incompetence on display.

Well having a armed population is a good defends deterrent. Even a Japanese in WW2 one leader said there will be a rifle behind every blade of grass. Civilians can also play a roll in country defence. Just look at Ukraine and with all this unpredictable times. It won’t hurt

You’re saying we can’t just give each state access to other states online gun registers? I call absolute bullshit on that.

Shocking killing of police men again. How can we not ban the guns in our country. The governments could finance therapy for the gun fans..and support recreative gun sport facilities.
