I never thought I would agree with Gimp-but he speaks the truth! Apart from fat chicks Gimp-they 'need' alcohol!!!

Im not for banning alcohol-I enjoy it (responsibly) just like many of us enjoy semis-responsibly! But gimp has hit on a valid point.

I have a car that can travel more than 100km/h (the limit to our speed laws) but it doesn't mean im going out and speeding at 150km/h every day and causing mayhem and carnage. I see many people with Holden or Ford V8s that can travel faster than our legal speed limits but these cars are not banned or require special endorsements to own-so why are AR and other semi rifles frowned apon or facing further restrictions?

If you are a vetted, legal and law abiding citizen then why to we have to pander to enjoy our sport?

Alcohol and cars cause so many more deaths, injuries and harm to our community every year than firearms do, but its easier to walk into a bar and buy a RTD or into a auto shop and buy a turbo Skyline than it is to own a semi auto in original issue!

But what is considered the bigger evil?-firearms!!!

Its a mad mad world!
