The register will be a central hub of data from each state and territory, allowing near real-time information sharing across the country. ab.co/3xSiagX
📷 Peter Sherman 🌸 @peterwsherman "Once established, police will know where firearms are, who owns them, and what other risks to the community and police may exist," Mr Dreyfus said Sure, especially all the artifacts, non-registered, and illegally imported firearms that will never make into any register, but that criminal gangs and cartels bring into the country in large numbers, alongside ilicit drugs, smokes, and other contraband. On display is once more the ignorance of our B-grade polit clowns. To be clear, I'm all for streamlining and replacing the separate state-run registers with one national register. But to suggest this will do anything to protect the community from criminals and sociopaths using illegal weapons, just shows weapons-grade delusion of Mr Dreyfus. Only locking up or deporting crims and sociopaths will keep us safer. And our polit clowns, bunging bureaucrats, and activist judiciary are doing a pretty bad job at this.
@abcnews Btw if you want to keep police safe the train them to expect everyone is armed and a threat. Treat the public with respect and that the they are there bosses. If the cops did not think they were gods they would be more careful and better at their jobs.
@abcnews They already have all this info nationwide in the crimtrak database. All firearms owners are considered criminals even though we are the most law abiding group in society. If you want to live in a safe society train everyone to use firearms in school and allow castle doctrine.
@abcnews Only honest people have their guns registered. Criminals don't register them. They government is frightened of honest people.
@abcnews A national register is only for law-abiding people. Criminal don't register guns. In away it is rather pointless.
@abcnews Tracker Linford has been vewy, vewy quiet these last 12 months.
@abcnews $160 million will buy a lot of IT. What else will be included that we need not know about ?
