    I have no sympathy for his family, they look like they have a couple dollars so appear like he was not raised in poor conditions and likely had no reason to be raiding houses,

    there could be more to the story of how "random" was the house he entered

    "Reason to be raiding houses"...poor or not, there is no reason

    Katter party are trying to pass a bill in Qld for Castle Law....not sure it will ever get off the ground but at least theres a bit of a undercurrent of recognition that more needs to be done.

    Detached reflection cannot be demanded in the presence of an uplifted knife.
    Dark house, wake to a noise and see a shadow figure inside-is he a Ted Bundy type serial killer, high on ice psycho or sadistic rapist? Who knows or has the time to find out? Fight like a scalded cat until that threat is down. Rather be judged by 12 than carried out by 6.

    Just like the little turd that stabbed the Coles worker. Charged with attempted murder. Won't do adult time because "Attempted murder" is not on the list but "Murder" is, along with "Assault occasioning actual bodily harm". Figure that one out because I can't.

    Seems like the legal team putting the bill together somehow "forgot".....what do you expect for your millions...perfection.lol

    Maybe, but I've gone in through a front door in Brisbane in the 70's at 3am one Saturday morning, the magic hour for this sort of stuff, carrying a sledge hammer followed by my 6'4" 14 stone rugby playing mate, recently discharged and a bit bored with civvy street, with the axe. A bit reprehensible, but we came out with a stolen Norton that the owner was very glad to get back. It could have been a bit more dangerous then, Qld had no firearms laws, if you wanted a pump 12g or a semi auto .22 just go down to your local sports store and buy off the shelf, if you wanted a mini 14 or SKS, a gun shop was always happy to help. Safe storage was considered to be in a wardrobe, although the  coppers understandably took a dim view of finding them stored loaded.
    Nortons were light enough to roll down the front steps of a high set Queenslander and up a plank into the back of an Inter AA110. The 3 blokes in the house were too pissed and stoned and surprised to effectively object.

    Credit where its due....Victoria premier has conceded that a tightening of bail laws have not gone far enough in her state. This comes on the back of a repeat offender, while on bail, stole a truck and during a police chase ran a red light and killed a driver. Crime is going to be a big ticket item in this yrs Federal election.

    Too many times have violent fuckers been let out on bail to do more damage or even kill, they have showed their hand, let them answer for that first, err on the side of caution, I don't mean petty shit or tax evasion, the person responsible for bail applications need to use a bit of common sense FFS.

    I walked into a gun shop in Mt Isa when I was 22 years old. They had the SKS on special. For $272 you could buy one with a scope and a 5 round magazine or dont worry about the scope and buy one for the same price with two 30 round magazines.
    I went for the two banana magazines.  And one thousand bullets. ( the bullets were 20 cents a piece) I think from memory I had to show my driving licence and nothing else.

    Johnny Howard was a snivelling little cunt but I think he probably did the right thing by getting those weapons off the street.

    They were fun though Beages, I had a mini 14 with multiple mags, a 30 and a couple of 20's, my brother's and cousins had SKK's and SKS's, campsite rifle rack was them all standing up with the bayonet rammed into the ground, we didn't shoot anyone but the fuckwits of society were starting to, a toy that didn't do my hearing much good, I do miss my Breda though, good duck gun that.

    Two interesting developments overnight......full marks to Vic detectives seen t boning a holden ute containing two scumbags who had committed several armed home invasions. This was a full on 40-60kph hit on the ute destroying both vehicles. Both crims were currently on bail. 
    The second case is interesting  a couple in QLD had their vehicle stolen from their locked garage. Crims broke in via the laundry entered the garage and drove the car away. Cops etc called, footage provided but the insurer wont pay as the key was left in the centre consul. Fine print on policies now seem to have a clause indicating that the keys are secured and stored safely away from the car. The owners are defending their actions saying that the last thing they want is armed randoms walking around their home searching for the keys. Anyone whos ever received armed hold up training is taught to comply and give the offender what they came for. Budget direct are not budging on their decision.

    And I must be a bit slow Beags, I've just realised that you've outed yourself as a past Queenslander!
    So all the stirring is really just homesickness?
