We are in the middle of an election campaign. Only 3 weeks to go and my vote will fix all that's wrong
Last week the Polly's rolled out the knives are evil fear card and further restrictions will be placed on them and penalties for carrying a knife will be increased. Tomahawks and other edged tools are tarred with the same brush - should earn both party's plenty of votes
Today I heard a bloody Polly squarking about new legislation to be introduced to further restrict access to Replica Handguns and introduce a licence to possess them? He was pleased to announce though - Toy Cap guns would not be caught in the very wide net they are about to cast as they only wish to protect law abiding citizens and punish the criminals
He did make the point that criminals are able to get hold of illegal firearms or knives though
Just how do you put Brains into a monument to whats wrong with society today.
Australia is the most highly urbanised country in the world and as such the huge majority of the population have zero concept that knives, tomahawks or firearms are Tools - end of story. They swallow the gup that these inanimate objects are responsible for the ills of 21st century life. They have no concept of accepting personnel responsibility for ones actions and do not realise that they have had the privileges and freedoms fought for by their Grandfathers eroded away and are perfectly happy to have there lives managed for them - saddest thing is they do not even realise it.
I'm getting annoyed, off the pulpit - NEXT
