I can see it now,

Criminal 1: Hey Jim, we need to get an unregistered/stolen gun to whack this guy.
Criminal 2: Hey here's a list of people we can steal one from.

OK the chances of that happening are rather slim but my main point goes back to an occurance in Melbourne last week. 3 people were shot in the city by a member of the Hells Angels bikey gang leaving one dead. In Australia and Victoria in particular we have extremely strickt gun laws. Only sports shooters can have a pistol that is limited to 10 bullet clips. These people must be part of a sporting shooters association and participate regulary in events or their license will be void. Yet this guy had an ILLEGAL firearm and shot three people.

I'm not exactly a pro gun extremist, America is very lax in some states imo BUT we have 2 rifles and a shotty at my house and all I can say it is not the people with legal firearms who should be hounded. Criminals will always get illegal weapons as is proof from the events I previously mentioned. People talk of crimes of passion where a licensed gun owner shoots someone, well that happens WITHOUT guns i'm afraid.

This guy has breached peoples rite to privacy and he replies "Thank you for your thoughtful comments about your support for secrecy in government"??? Go get your tin hat you conspiracy knob, he is nothing but a moron.
