Gun control is not about guns, it is ALWAYS about CONTROL!
✔✔
One of our biggest Allies are the Anti-Communist Chinese, they throw an Freedom from Communism Party every year and they are dead set terrified of Gun Control Laws
The Police should have no say in any firearms laws whatsoever.
✔✔
We all know our local cop ( rural people mostly do) . These fullas know that generally us people in the firearm community are good people. Some of them shoot at the same clubs as us! We need the boys in blue to talk to their union reps, this affects their ability to help the community because their hierarchy is making it them against us ( treating us like criminals) . Maybe we should have a conversation with our local boys and girls in blue?
Who enforces the gun laws then? Society certainly does not want the army, for instance, to bear arms against its own citizens. Police have a role to play, but should not be involved in regulation. Their role must be focused on combating crime.
@@thesnaggletooth19yep I agree mate our local cop were I am in Victoria does the gun safety courses he’s a legend loves getting people involved helps them out with laws or anything he’s a shooter himself
@thesnaggletooth19 this is good in theory but when city cops are 98% of the force, nobody will listen to country cops. That's the sad reality
They won’t listen to reason because it is simply about getting rid of guns, nothing less will please them.
✔✔
Gaining ground with people that are heavily propagandized is very difficult. They become incapable of rational thought and are guided by fear above all else. Pushing govt out of education and media is equally important.
✔✔
Your spot on mate, there's too much division is society, and the Politicians thrive on it.
✔✔
Breaking up families was the beginning. Divide from the nucleus of community imstill fear in all people.and you will be offered up freedoms for free, you won't have to take them away.
An angry, frightened, divided population is easily controlled.
It’s refreshing to here from someone who knows what’s going on. Too many people are either asleep or too ignorant to see what’s in front of them
✔✔
Will the cops give up their guns? Politicians still protected by armed bodyguards?
It’ll all be one sided as usual
✔✔
The only defenders of the constitution are THE PEOPLE. As always you bring common sense and great content. Thank You
✔✔
the zombies are sleep walking to the slaughter house
✔✔
To hand in your guns to the government , to prevent illegal criminal activity ,
Is like cutting of your balls , because there are too many kids in the neighborhood
😂✔✔
all pertain to the "person" and not the natural living man or women
a famous comedian once said "anything that can be taken away from you is not a right, its a privilege"
l am glad you are in touch with and are talking about what is really happening in the world
thankyou Mark
✔✔
Why the F do our laws and rights reside with the King of England and not a Republic governed by a Bill of Rights?
@@Matt123a because we are a part of the Commonwealth being colonised by Britain
we have a constitution that works democratically like with the voice referendum, where the US do not and are totally different being a Republic
we have democratically voted down being a Republic in the past here in Australia
l dont like the odds of a bill of rights being in our favour if it were to be drawn up now by either big party's, Lib/Lab
but that's just what l think and l am a bit pessimistic regarding our poliscum
@@markandmellwhiteley7995 both parties nuked the referendum in ‘99 because they wanted a model in which they maintained all the power (parliament electing the president) whereas the people overwhelmingly wanted a president elected directly by the people. The political class in our country will NEVER seriously entertain any policy which will limit their monopoly over power and control in this country.
Great words Mark. Agree the country should unite and make a stand together as a group not individually.
✔✔
Never stop fighting! Here in Canada the “buyback” after 4yrs has bought ZERO guns.
✔✔
Wish I could say the same for the average brainwashed sheep in Aus.
Good on ya Mark, keep fighting for what you believe.
✔✔
Their new knife laws are pretty bloody scary as well. Police will have the ability to legally search anyone anywhere they like under the banner of looking for knives. So yeah. Control
✔✔
What do you suggest, knife violence, especially by youths has become a serious problem and something needs to be done.
@@tadstertrolley7770 Well one thing I wouldn't suggest is giving police complete power. There are laws in most western countries that are actually in place to protect citizens from the police. The right to silence is a classic that most would know. Start getting rid of our protections and knife crime is the last thing you'll need to worry about.
well then the cops will be losing their assets in commercial liens as they do not have lawful authority as they are a business, Tey v Plotz WA , VICPOL v S Marrotta , Vic , Enever v King , HCA 6 , police are private agents and in fact, the WA SC is fraudulent
Too many soft-headed nannies in our society today, we need to get back to telling off the smartar5e few whenever they're being obnoxious, let them know they COULD be in for a hosing down and public shaming if they don't play nice in our community.
Start self-regulating our desired outcomes for society, collectively work together to weed out and reduce antisocial and unacceptable behaviours.
All the sooks will complain "vigilante justice isn't right".
Maybe not, but it's bleeding obvious the systems as they are now, are ineffective and lacking.
Come up with a better idea...
The scariest words "I'm from the government, and I'm here to help"
✔✔
Along with 'this is for your safety and convenience '...
So much truth spoken. You are on the money with everything said here.
✔✔
Great video of truth my friend😄🙏
This is all running rampant in america. Those who commit crimes are now let go, often without any bail and simply a promise to return to court. On the other hand, they are taking away guns from those who legally own them and are committing no crimes. There is a Day of reckoning coming, as it is "said" that there are likely over 30 million AR type rifles in America alone, and trying to outlaw these weapons is simply useless and begging for confrontation......
✔✔
It's easy to disarm sheep.
All you have is a bunch of copium and self-denial. A sheep with something that goes bang is still a sheep.
Everyday here in the U.S i watch and listen to my fellow citizens. It pains me to admit this, and that is serfdom seems to have the majority. A nation built on a revolutionary spirit. Has now been altered to a very small minority of that spirit. Everyone says they will deal with that road when it gets to them. Unfortunately the lack community, the lack of planning, the lack of agreement, and the division on the issue has never been worse here. The time is coming when we will all become the martyr. Its so sad that even here the obvious choice is always the last choice anymore.
✔✔
Many are watching the decline of the United States. A nation that Australia used to revere as a "big brother & protector of the little guy". We now view the country as rotting away on the inside. We see high-ranking, Commissioned male officers in your Defence Force wearing lipstick and dresses, a News Media telling the exact same lies, word for word, on a regular basis and your nation's Leader is in a serious state of Dementia or mental illness that everyone pretends is not happening to him. I believe America's ONLY hope of salvation is if she returns to the true Christianity the country was founded on. It's time to put the true God back in the classrooms, the Courts AND Government. (Please refer to Pr. Jack Hibbs prayer at the opening of Congress)
Your country is perhaps the worst example of freedom and democracy. I can guarantee that no other peer country or western democracy wants to be like the US. This BS about freedom. You are the least free.
I want to know where the ssaa have been... we pay a yearly fee for them to stand for us and they have done nothing! We need to be a united front, stand together
You are very wrong.!! You need to go and read all the articles in relation to what SSAA is doing for our gun rights.!
I've been a SSAA member for almost 10 years and the silence is deafening. Seems like they don't want to rock the boat. Pretty weak considering how they grandstrad on other topics.
@@photonthief you might be already, but worth signing up to the E news letter. They regularly share what they have been up to. But, nevertheless, things are still looking very dismal.! I mean, 27 million people were forcibly locked down for over 2 years by less than a hundred politicians, that says everything.!
✔
They haven't done much in the 10 years I was a member.. they don't get my money any more
Thanks Mark.!! Very sensible as always. 🙏🙏
✔✔
Another step towards total control.
✔✔
How about a mass rally to parliament with farmers fishers and legal gun owners to give them another no vote or they’ll be voted out by the masses
✔✔
The problem is most licensed shooters won’t put in the effort to do that we are to lazy, it’s crazy over a million licensed shooters and can’t get one change in parliament!
Mark you build it they will come
It’s not just about Licensed Firearm Owners, Farmers and Fishers - its far bigger than that and ultimately involves everyone outside of parliament (after all, politicians and bureaucrats are a protected species, they made sure of that). Sure, initially its an attack on law abiding gun owners and agriculturalists / farmers, but once they’ve been crushed, it will be 4WD owners, then Boat owners, then Ham Radio Operators etc etc. The trouble is, all these things being licenced and regulated, the “Stormtroopers” know exactly whose door to knock on to confiscate things.
So it needs to be a rally involving many united groups - like they have been having in Europe. Only then will those in government know their time in power is limited unless they start working for, rather than against the people.
@@heleti0000right on mate
This isn't just about guns. If you don't like guns I respect your feelings/beliefs ( unless you think I'm not a good person ✌️) , this is about a whole lot more, its about our way of life. Freedom.
This bloke isn't a nutter, it's worth a listen. We all need to stand by others causes more, because they're chipping away at us all. Divide and conquer, while we're distracted Is their ultimate goal (good song lyrics)
I'm ready for the barrage of negativity; that's what they're counting on, and u(little, sad) people do more damage and cause more pain than any half decent person would think acceptable. Maybe just stop and think.
Bad policys and ignorance cause more deaths, destroy way more lives (1000's more)in this country than guns and we are complaisant, because we keep on letting them do it!
For the people, by the people!
✔✔
You’re right that it’s our complacency which allows these draconian laws to be passed, I really do wonder how bad things would have to get before organized resistance becomes mainstream.
COVID restrictions demonstrated we can essentially be turned into prisoners in our own homes on a government whim and most people celebrated that, so I’m not optimistic about positive change when the envelope has already been pushed so far.
✔✔
Covid was a test to see how effective we can be sheep.
@Klob-xo9vh there was a reason we had to be locked up in our own homes,it's so the COVID virus was not spread,making it a burden on hospitals,and people dying on mass,I'm not vaccinated by choice,but even I am not stupid enough to realize we needed to isolate.
If there was a drunk driving problem, they would prohibit driving.
🤣✔
No they bought in random breath tests which is why it's not a massive problem. 1970 was our deadliest year on the roads, many fatalities were due to alcohol.
I whole heartedly agree with you Mark ... America is not fairing much better with the administration that's in place right now ... Thank You ....
✔✔
They have already taken so much that we will never get back,the rank and file have and are being deceived unknowingly 🤬
✔✔
Our only hope is One Nation winning several seats and holding the balance of power.
Pauline Hanson has been very quiet on the issue of all things guns since 1996. Since then she has stated that no one should be allowed to semiautomatic rifles.
She's one of the only politicians to have visited gun clubs and actually shoot there for fun. All for the media to see and report. I'm not aware of the semi-automatic comments she made, but I'm sure she probably just need to be convinced that it's nothing like automatic firearms. Politicians go for votes and Labor and Liberals couldn't care less about our sport and passion to preserve historical firearms. I think Pauline is definitely different and will be a friend, rather than our enemy in this battle.
✔✔
Well put together, great thoughts, very sensible ideas goes against all governments. I agree 💯 that we as the a gun community need to come together put our differences aside to make sure that government is working for the people not against us. Do your research and make sure that the people you vote for have value,morals, and strength to stand for your/ our rights. Thanks for using your platform to get these subjects out in the open so people understand the fight we have on our hands. Guns may not be your thing but if they are coming for them how long before they come for whatever it is that you enjoy.
✔✔
Trouble is the sheep can’t see that.
I’m sorry to hear how you’re having to fight so hard for your rights. Living in rural America, in a state that has constitutional carry, I enjoy total firearms freedom but support for gun control on the left is rabid. We know that a couple of bad elections could turn everything around. Keep fighting brothers, heading to the gun club for some range time. (Veteran and retired police officer)
✔✔
Why hasn't one of the gun organisations like Shooters Union etc organised a March on Parliament
✔✔
You are right Mark! Speaking the truth is important👍
✔✔
You are a very wise man, thanks for sharing! From the Space Coast of Florida, USA
✔✔
One Nation and National Party are the only options.
✔✔
I’ve been reticent to get involved publicly due to fear, but I’m coming round to the realisation that if I don’t do anything then the problem will only get worse.
✔✔
I’m in Melbourne and wait for my gun license renewal for months they are saying there is a back log . Something going on
✔✔
Thanks Mark, so very well said. United we stand, divided we fall . . . . . .
✔✔
Hey Mark, excellent commentary, I couldn’t agree more. Thanks for the great insight into the problem and the potential answers.
✔✔
Great ideas, Mark. Thanks for the video.
✔✔
It’s rare to totally eliminate any problem. It reaches a manageable level and that’s where we are in Australia. Further regulation won’t eliminate the politician’s perceived problems with firearms. Any further regulation isn’t regulation but unjust restriction.
✔✔
Mark you are spot on , great video.
✔✔
This is what happened when Hitler took over as well as Starlin .

Very good thoughts mark
I do believe that you are onto a winner here by the people for the people
✔✔
Compliance with unconstitutional laws are not one of my better traits…!
✔✔
Wise words!
✔✔
Yes, being proactive is far better than waiting for "them" to tell you how it's going to be.....
✔✔
Firearms are inanimate objects, being neither good nor bad!
And, as stated, the criminals are the problem and they’re not going to comply to the “turn your guns over to the government” order, only the law abiding citizens will get caught up in the process!
Mark, as usual, your post makes sense and sounds logical.
I’ve said it before, Mark, you will need to run for office so that your voice will count more than just a “concerned citizen”!
✔✔
If this was really about public safety, then they would be looking at other things. I would be willing to bet people in WA have a larger chance of being stuck by lighting than shot with the type of guns you use on your channel. I truly wish you the best on this from someone who does live in one of the most gun friendly states in the US, at least for the moment.
✔✔
Freedom never comes free , you always going to have fight for it .
✔✔
Good video and I gathered that you aware that this is part of a much bigger agenda. Good on you. Mate, I've worked for over 3 years to get all the groups to sit down together and work. when that happens, the people win. Unfortunately, most "awake" ones are not quite there yet and still buy into petty divisions. And unfortunately also, as tyranny increases it's hold the more difficult it becomes to release its' grip. More reasonable people like yourself is what we need. And more time. Take care and stay well.
✔✔
Very important conversation Mark. Keep up the good work.
✔✔
It's about controlling you
✔✔
Divide and conquer
✔✔
Yes, Yes, and Yes. We are too com0lacent and the rest are "I'm alright jack".
✔✔
Well said Mark. Thanks for your efforts in this. Unfortunately this WA Labor Government has the control to push this through now. But I agree we all need to become more active in preventing this and future governments from pushing their control agenda.
✔✔
It's not labour WA it's the communists who are ruling us now.....
disarming the people whilst importing 1 million enemy immigrants a year
✔✔
I don’t even need to watch after the first ten seconds
You are right and I have sent my thoughts through to the relevant authorities but will they listen ?
We can only keep trying
Keep it up mate
Band together we will get there
✔✔
the horse has already bolted mate - the helpful idiots have handed this world to wolves... there is no hope other than the inevitable "vigorous" push back once the food is rationed to the poor (all of us)
✔✔
Well spoken !! I'm with you. I agree with your thinking and the ins and outs you stated. I've got your Back!!
✔✔😊
Well done Mark you’re comments are responsible and more should be done particularly by the industry manufacturers of gun and ammo who you rarely hear from to involve non shooters who need to hear positive aspects of our sport and firearms owners are not nut cases waiting to ambush police or gun down tourists but that we have legitimate activities for work and recreational
✔✔
Police in Queensland that all carry firearms do not have or required to have a firearms licence
I bet most would not be eligible or past the licensing requirements
The hypocrisy of it all amazes me

My post to reddit perth. Thanks mate for putting your neck out there for us all
✔✔
I fully agree with you great content from you 👍
👍👍
Great, and Smart Thinking! Love Your Work!!!
✔✔
This is a fantastic idea 💡 Mark well said mate
✔✔
Your on the right track buddy as Aussies we need to stand up & be heard . There has been a noticeable decline in civil rights & liberties since the late seventies as governments push more towards police states in Aus. That is unacceptable & un-Australian ...
✔✔✔
We need to organise a stay at home day to protest these changes and repeat until they listen.
✔✔
For the shooting community, we have the SSAA already. I'm not sure "everyone getting together" could do better than a purpose-built organisation representing us on a formal platform.
I appreciate your enthusiasm and it certainly rubs off when what you're saying is spot on 🤙
✔✔
Thanks Mark great work..
✔✔
🇦🇺😎👍Hey mate thanks for the info. Wouldn’t it be great to enjoy our sport without feeling like a criminal. Thanks again for your efforts and your passion big fella🇦🇺🏁
✔✔
🙏👍 Logical, balanced, and well said!
✔✔
Well said Mark
✔✔
I don't recognise my country anymore.

There are only two things that destroy guns. Rust and politicians

Very well said, we're felling it in the us

Spot on again 😎👌
✔✔
Totally agree with you

Great content thanks for sharing

In the early !970's large psychiatric hospitals providing long term care were shut down. The mass shootings began. Now mentally ill people are half of the homeless problem.
In the early 1980's NSW and Victoria closed their large long term care psychiatric hospitals. The mass shootings began
Queensland did not close its long term psychiatric hospitals until the 2000's. No gun licences were needed until the Goss life time licence was started in 1992. No criminals were permitted to own guns prior to this. Queensland did not have mass shootings.
When Martin Bryant successfully applied for welfare benefits, his psychiatrist stated that he was likely to kill someone one day.
✔✔
The mass shootings began! What, one? Fear much.
Wrong on so many levels... There is a hell of a lot more to the Tasmanian affair that you clearly know nothing about.
@1Longranger exactly, back before this massacre i could walk into my local tassie toy store and buy a semi automatic rifle as a school kid, no questions asked. There wasn't a road sign in tassie that wasn't riddled with bullet holes. Self regulation really worked well.
@@tadstertrolley7770 Wrong. Martin Bryant did not have the required firearms licence. Nine days after his possession of illegal firearms had been referred to the Police nothing had been done about it. Martin Bryant had murdered his father to a level of civil proof, but could not get the evidence to a level of criminal proof. Now there are people being charged and even jailed for possessing toy guns. The problem is that politicians and journalists never know where to stop. This makes organisations like the NRA fanatically opposed to sensible restrictions, because the restrictions keep growing. Communist China has slightly stricter gun laws and a freer more open society. Japan and Taiwan have looser gun laws and an unelected dictatorship that brutally supresses freedom of speech..
Hi Mark, I believe peaceful protests are most effective when they are disruptive to those we need to influence. If they don't see, feel, hear it, they won't be affected and won't concede change.
✔✔
I had to resit for my firearms licence in tas because it had expired without my knowledge, lost in the mail , but they did phone me after to say my grace period had expired as well $500 and 6 months later to get it back . I can't shoot on my land now as its deemed unsafe now , but the rifle range where i did my test is, has a dirt backstop with a national highway behind it . When i had my guns in storage at the local police station i was told lot's of people were in the same situation because they had a mail glitch and the renewals weren't sent
✔✔
Well said.
✔✔
Very well said Mark. I totally agree.
✔✔
💯% agree Mark, yes we need to make considerable changes to our gun laws and make them Nationally recognized. A great incisive video on the topic and a great forward and positive approach to this madness. Keep up the good work.
✔✔
I 'smelt a rat' the other day at a big shopping mall in Gippsland. An average looking middle aged couple were sitting at a table gathering signatures, aimed at giving police more stop and search powers. They claimed their son was stabbed to death. I almost signed it. Has anyone seen this elsewhere?
✔
The main reason the Anzacs and Australia were such a great fighting force was admitted by the government of the Day, that prior to WW1 and WW2 most Young men, had been taught to shoot from a very young age and going bush hunting and fishing. Nowadays the emphasis is on finding a cheaper latte in town.
✔✔
I think elon musk said something like "everything will be illegal soon" he was refering to all the new legislation and governing bodies and departments that keep increasing every year to the point where there will be a gov department for anything and everything
✔✔
A musk fanboy, you need to run out and buy a tesla.
@tadstertrolley7770 yeah naa mate just because I agree with one statement the man made doesn't make me a fan boy but ill bet that's the sort of thing you generation is used to sucking the rectum out of anyone famous. in your case probably Taylor swift 😄
@tadstertrolley7770 if you think quoting one statment from a person qualifies you as a fan boy I think you need to re-educate yourself you sound like you have a really low IQ
We need you in politics to fix it from within but I think you are to intelligent to fit in with any of the political parties we have at the moment 😉
🤣✔✔
Has anyone ever heard reasonable tyrant
✔✔
Watch out its all about disarming YOU so They can do what ever they want to YOU without impunity. As wht is happening in Australia
✔✔
We should do as the Swiss do the government issues and trains all 18 plus people in firearm safety and undergo basic military training. And they hold and maintain that firearm for life.
✔✔
Agreed. I just subscribed.
I also think once you have a license you shouldn't need to keep applying for permits, you've got your license. After you license, maybe go through the waiting period for your first permit but then after that, that's it, show your license, buy a gun, walk out with it.
The cool off period for each and every permit doesn't make sense. On your second gun, you already own the first gun, what's the point of the cooling off period when you already have a gun. The current permit system is stupid and broken.
Not to mention 'justifying' owning a firearm. Bugger me. If I love it that much and go through all the effort I should be able to just have a gun because I want one, nothing more.
✔✔
what amazing video, so perfectly put.
I agree with you on the licensing terms. I would not be against having to prove you know how to conduct yourself in a safe manner when handling a firearm.
The UK has some pretty strict requirements as well, including home visits and to check where the firearm will be stored.
Again it’s about finding the middle ground where we keep everyone happy.
✔✔
This is by far the best solution going forward very well done 👍👍
✔✔
Switzerland shows what can be achieved.
✔✔
As always, very well spoken. Maybe we need to put mark on Ballot. Might be surprised with the result
🤣✔
Smart, balanced, sensible, worthwhile ideas and comments....a parallel is table saws in America: "people' are developing devices to prevent table saw accidents that virtually never happen....they do happen, but very seldom....i.e., flesh contact with the saw blade....far more common and likely is table saw kickback....but, the emphasis is entirely on an almost unnecessary sawstop device to wreck your saw and blade.....similar in pattern and principle for me....
✔✔
I agree with the comment below. But I'd take it further by saying "Police should have no say in ANY laws". Police are Law Enforcement...... NOT law makers nor are they law changers. All laws of the land should always be determined by our elected citizens to our government bodies. (However, I often wonder who our elected representatives are actually working for. Eg; Why do Australian politicians attend meetings in Davos, Switzerland???) As a former L.E.O. I've seen 2 main issues that truly scare me. 1. The corruption and misconduct within law enforcement bodies. 2. The firepower that criminals seem always to have access to. I believe these two issues are intertwined.
