There are now more than 4m guns in the community – almost double the number recorded in the years after the Port Arthur massacre that prompted a national crackdown

    Remember when when the NRA promised $20m in political donations to OneNation if they promised to oppose Australian gun control? What do you think they did with all that cash?

      remember when it was found the NRA was backed by Russia?

      This is just another example of Russian aggression against the democratic west
