So, it is ok to own a gun to shoot clay pigeons, but NOT to protect your life and the lives of your loved ones? And THAT is OK with you? Sorry, but that is insane. There is no more fundamental human right than the right to self-defense. If Australians have given that up, then they have surrendered a large piece of their freedom and personal liberty. Thank God for our Bill of Rights.
Here is a good read on the efficacy (or lack thereof) of gun control laws in various countries including your own Down Under. IMO, this article puts its finger on the root cause of the issue.
