AUS: 'Greenslide' is a serious threat to Australia's way of life
"In recent weeks, Bob Brown has triumphantly announced a ‘Greenslide’. But it is yet another reflection of how our democracy has become determined by the highest bidder, rather than the most deserving. The Senate race was so unequally framed that Brown was able to present the Greens, without doubt the hard left of Australian politics, as a genuine alternative to the two major parties, and to continue the deception that this party is about what is natural and is above our tainted mainstream politics."
US: Environmental website owner shot dead by police in hostage drama
'A man shot and killed by police after taking hostages at The Discovery Channel HQ in Maryland, to 'save the planet,' told an NBC producer he had several bombs strapped to his body "ready to go off". According to the Washington Post, the website, www.savetheplanet.com, is registered to (James Jay) Lee and was published on July 18.'
NSW: Armed home invaders storm woman's home
"Two armed men stormed a Sydney woman's home, forced her to her knees and stole a small safe from the premises. The woman heard loud banging at the front door of her Belfield home, in Sydney's southwest, about 11pm (AEST) yesterday, police say. Two masked men armed with guns confronted her in the hallway."
US: Registration, and other anti-gun bills, defeated in California
"Yesterday, Tuesday, August 31, lawmakers in the Golden State heard loud and clear the voices of pro-gun advocates when they defeated three dangerous pieces of anti-gun legislation. Assembly Bill 1810 would have established a registration system, similar to the one currently in place for handguns, for all newly-acquired long guns." Also defeated were Assembly Bill 1934 and Assembly Bill 2358.
CANADA: "Registry makes criminals of law-abiding gun owners"
"If the registry prevents murders and cuts down on other gun crimes such as robberies and armed drug deals, then there might be a case for keeping it -- might. Otherwise, there is no justification for the way it makes criminals of law-abiding gun owners. In fact, on the crime-prevention front, the registry has been an abject failure."
CANADA: Liberals say NDP to blame if gun registry goes down
"The Liberals targeted the NDP (New Democratic Party) on Monday, saying Jack Layton will be responsible for the death of the gun registry by refusing to direct his MPs to vote the party line. “If the gun registry dies on Sept. 22, it will be because Jack Layton and the NDP failed to show leadership,” Halifax West MP Geoff Regan said."
QLD: John Crook rambles on about 11-year-olds with firearms licences
"Children as young as 11 are applying for and getting Queensland firearms licences - but some people want to see the legal age for gun licences lowered even further. Information released under Right to Information laws showed 86 children aged 11 or 12 hold firearms licences. John Crook, from Gun Control Australia, said he would prefer to see the gun licence age raised to 25 for men and 18 for women. "That's what we think would be best if we place the safety of Australians as our prime aim," Mr Crook said."
VIC: Premier blasted for "accounting error" excuse over lost police guns
"Premier John Brumby has been slammed for trying to excuse police failure to account for 186 guns as "an accounting error". The Opposition yesterday called for an independent inquiry into why Victoria Police does not know what happened to the weapons. The call came after the Herald Sun revealed the firearms -- including shotguns, semi-automatics and revolvers -- could not be found to match them with records."

CANADA: Views on gun registration and gun ownership
"By almost a 4 to 1 ratio, Canadians don't believe that the Canadian Firearms Registry has been a success. The Canadian Firearms Registry, also known as the long gun registry, requires the registration of all non-restricted firearms in Canada. Two-in-five Canadians (43%) believe the registry has been unsuccessful in preventing crime in Canada, while three-in-ten (29%) think it has had no effect on crime. Only 13 per cent of respondents believe the Canadian Firearms Registry has been success."
AUS: Greens strike deal to support Labor
"Labor and the Greens are announcing a formal agreement under which the environmental party will back Labor. The announcement is a win for Labor as it allows the party to claim parity with the Coalition on 73 seats each. The agreement does not include a cabinet post for the Greens."
US: Long range muzzle loading — competition at ranges exceeding half-a-mile
"It’s a shooting tradition with American roots running back nearly 150 years, long range target shooting with a muzzle loading rifle. Long range means competition at distances greater than half a mile. These matches are shot at extraordinary distances of 800, 900, and 1,000 yards using Black Powder Firearms. Most are traditional English target rifles from famous makers—Rigby, Gibbs Medford, Alexander Henry. And the teams on the firing lines are also international with both Great Britain and Australia here to compete against the Americans."
NSW: Trade in stolen guns impossible to quantify
"Official statistics from the NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research indicate gun crime is at a lower level than it was two years ago. While it is impossible to know just how many illegal guns there are in Australia, GunPolicy.org, a website run by the School of Public Health at the University of Sydney, estimates the figure to be between 400,000 and 700,000. The vast majority of those firearms are registered and have been stolen from a house or business. They are not guns that have been smuggled into the country."

VIC: Victoria Police lose hundreds of guns
"Victoria Police has admitted it cannot account for close to 200 firearms. An audit has found that out of more than 10,000 firearms on record, 186 can not be physically located. Deputy Commissioner Kieran Walshe says he is confident the firearms have not ended up in the community. He is blaming the problem on police record-keeping." Submitted by IM
VIC: Audit shows almost 200 police guns missing
"Almost 200 shotguns, semi-automatics and revolvers held by Victoria Police can't be accounted for, an embarrassing audit has revealed. The shemozzle has been exposed in a stocktake of thousands of guns held by police over the past 20 years. Among the 186 guns confirmed as missing are police firearms and others used for forensic comparison and training."
US: War against (lead) ammunition heats up
"Lead, first employed in weaponry by the Romans, has been the metal of choice for use in bullets and shotgun shells for more than seven centuries. However, since at least the mid-1980s, its use has been under attack by various environmental and animal rights groups, joined periodically by government agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). In recent months the campaign has heated up considerably, and gives no sign of cooling down; within the U.S. or abroad."
US: "Legislators for the most part are idiots"
"The State of California has a long history of enacting gun bills, and for the silliest of reasons. The 1923 ban on carrying a weapon concealed without a permit was enacted for two reasons: 1) To prevent a total ban on concealed carry and 2) To keep Chinese and Latinos from carrying concealed weapons. Legislators for the most part are idiots. The ones who write and vote for gun control bills more so than the rest. The 1989 California Assault Weapons ban is a prime example. Not only did it not include any assault weapons it banned guns which did not even exist."
CANADA: MP's campaign to scrap registry
"On September 22, there will be a simple yet important vote in the House of Commons on my Private Members’ Bill C-391. Members of Parliament will have to vote either to KEEP the wasteful and ineffective long-gun registry, or to SCRAP it. Some have asked me why I introduced this bill, especially as a woman and a mother who does not even own a long-gun. I became politically active almost 10 years ago. Our justice system was eroding and money was being poured into programs that did nothing to fight crime, like the long-gun registry."

CANADA: Police chiefs' flimsy evidence to keep registry
"Canada's police chiefs are conducting a full-court press to preserve the long-gun registry, the dismantling of which could begin with a vote in Parliament next month. At their annual meeting here in Edmonton last Monday, the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police (CACP) insisted the registry was an invaluable police investigation tool and voted unanimously to recommend its preservation. In doing so, they trotted out the usual canard about how police access the registry 11,000 times a day. No, they don't . . ."

VIC: Sentence for carrying drugs and imitation weapon reduced on appeal
"A Melbourne judge has reduced the jail time of a man who appealed his conviction for carrying drugs and an imitation weapon. Andrew Cotanidis, 25, of Airport West, was sentenced in April to six months' jail for possessing an imitation handgun and a further two months for possessing amphetamines. But this morning, Victorian County Court Judge Sue Pullen suspended three months of Cotanidis's eight-month sentence, reducing his jail time to at least five months."
AUS: Australia has dangerously miscalculated suicide rates
"Australia has dangerously miscalculated its suicide statistics - by as much as 30 per cent in NSW and Queensland - leaving a silent and growing epidemic of mounting deaths. he figures are in stark contrast to years of backslapping by state and federal governments, congratulating themselves for reducing suicide rates from a peak of 2700 in 1997. The suicide toll is as high now as it was in the 1990s - if not higher - with experts predicting a further rise as the impact of rising unemployment and other economic factors bite." See story below.
AUS: Howard's gun legacy - claim that 200 lives a year saved
"Ten years of suicide data after John Howard's decision to ban and then buy back 600,000 semi-automatic rifles and shotguns has had a stunning effect. The buyback cut firearm suicides by 74 per cent, saving 200 lives a year, according to research to be published in The American Law and Economics Review." ABSTRACT: Paper on which the article is based
RELATED: Howard's gun buyback slashed firearms suicides - ABC Submitted by IM. Suicide numbers have been falling for years, but the clam that 200 lives a year are saved because of the gun 'buybacks' is false at first glance because it seems to take no account of the numbers who may have committed suicide in other ways. The authors have obviously not heard of method substitution.
NZ: Australian Police astounded at NZ's unarmed force
"Australia's police association president told TVNZ's Sunday programme that a gun on a policeman's belt is a visible deterrent. "As an Australian police officer going to New Zealand and seeing officers walking around in some violent areas without a firearm on their hip, to me it's just crazy," Sergeant Scott Weber said.Arming the police not only stops criminals attacking officers out on the street but also demands respect when they turn up to a violent situation, said Weber."
AUS: Green elected on Liberal preferences
"The Liberal Lord Mayor of Melbourne – and former Victorian party leader – Robert Doyle last night condemned the decision by his party to preference the Greens political party in the federal seat of Melbourne, handing the seat to the extreme-left group. VEXNEWS Investigations Unit members attending a Master Builders Association function last night heard the senior Liberal address the gathering and refer to the decision as a “disgrace” and argued that the election of a Labor member have been a better outcome than electing the Greens party."
US: EPA denies ammo ban petition
"Agreeing with the position of the NRA and the firearms industry, the EPA explained in a news release that it “does not have the legal authority to regulate this type of product under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA).” Further crushing the hopes of anti-gun and anti-hunting activists, the release added: “nor is the agency seeking such authority.” RELATED: Environmental activists push lead ban
NSW: Second home invader charged over shooting
"A second man has been charged with murder after a Sydney home invasion last week. Devril Leuthwaite, 17, died in hospital soon after being shot inside his Werrington home, in Sydney's west, on August 22."
CHINA: Police announce knife controls in Chinese province
"Police in the capital of South China's Guangdong province will clamp down on the sale of cutting tools as a security measure ahead of the Asian Games, which are scheduled to kick off on Nov 12. Starting Nov 1, people in Guangzhou will only be able to buy kitchen knives and other large-sized cutting tools at designated shops, according to a notice issued on Thursday. Anyone looking to buy a knife must carry proof of identification, which will be registered in police records on the spot, the notice said." Have they imported an Australian politician?

NSW: Bikie informant leaked sensitive police information
"A bikie informant inside the NSW Police Force has allegedly leaked sensitive information about several criminal investigations, risking the safety of undercover police agents. The infiltration of state and federal drug inquiries by the Comanchero bikie gang has been described as one of the worst cases of alleged corruption in the NSW Police in recent years. Officials suspect the leaked information includes intelligence gathered by Australia's elite crime fighting body, the Australian Crime Commission, the NSW Crime Commission and the NSW Police."
SA: Armed robbers hold-up Adelaide businesses
"Armed bandits have robbed two businesses in the southern suburbs early this morning. In the first incident two men entered the gaming room of the Aussie Inn, Main South Rd, Hackham, about 1.30am, threatening staff. They escaped on foot, possibly to a waiting car, with an unknown amount of cash. In the second robbery two men threatened staff with a knife at the Caltex service station on South Rd, Edwardstown, about 3am. They escaped with cash and cigarettes."
US: Environmental activists push lead ban
"Environmental activists are pressing the Obama administration to ban the manufacture, processing and distribution lead shot, bullets, and fishing sinkers under the Toxic Substances Control Act of 1976. . . A petition submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency on Aug. 3 says ammunition and tackle manufacturers are now marketing a wide variety of non-lead, nontoxic bullets, shotgun pellets and fishing tackle, which can and should be used instead of lead projectiles and weights."
US: Coming to a town near you. . .
"Budget cuts are forcing police around the country to stop responding to fraud, burglary and theft calls as officers focus limited resources on violent crime. "If you come home to find your house burglarized and you call, we're not coming," said Oakland Police spokeswoman Holly Joshi. The city laid off 80 officers from its force of 687 last month and the department can't respond to burglary, vandalism, and identity theft. "It's amazing. It's a big change for us." Submitted by DG. How long before "tough on crime" politicians do something similar here?
NSW: Rhiannon's son to be sentenced for supplying cannabis
"Greens federal Senate candidate Lee Rhiannon has supported her eldest son in court as he awaits sentence in relation to $290,000 worth of cannabis found in his apartment. A sentencing hearing at the Sydney District Court heard that (Rory) O'Gorman began smoking cannabis heavily following a football accident at the age of 18, in which he broke his back. His sister, Kilty O'Gorman, told the court he began "self-medicating" to deal with the pain of the injury and the emotional impact of being struck down with such a catastrophic injury in his prime."
AUS: Libs play hardball with independents
"Negotiations to form a federal government have started like "a race with a bucket of concrete around one foot", independent MP Tony Windsor says. Opposition Leader Tony Abbott's refusal to have his election promises costed by Treasury is not a good start to negotiations with the three independents, Mr Windsor told Fairfax Radio Network on Thursday."
NSW: Jewellery and antique firearms stolen in burglary
"Police say 14 pistols dating back to the 1750s, an antique bayonet and dagger and numerous jewellery items were stolen from the house on Mungara Place at Beechwood between 2.45pm and 4.30pm (AEST) on Monday August 16. Police would like to speak with two well-dressed teenagers between the ages of 16 and 18 who were seen walking through Beechwood primary school with suitcases." Of course they would!
AUS: Politicians get a secret pay rise
"Australians have failed to endorse either Julia Gillard or Tony Abbott as Prime Minister but the Remuneration Tribunal says whoever wins the top job will get a pay rise of almost $14,000. The secretive tribunal last night quietly posted on its website the announcement of the 4.1 per cent pay rise for all federal MPs that will be backdated to August 1. The Prime Minister will get a pay rise of $268 a week taking their annual salary to around $354,671."
US: Washington D.C. to use crime prediction technology

CANADA: Can Bob Katter rescue Australia?
"Bob Katter, it's often said in Australia, has gone bananas. The 65-year-old cattle-rancher-turned-lawmaker is famed for his 10-gallon Texas-style hat, conservative views and an aversion to free trade. Never heard of the guy? You will very soon, if you have even a passing interest in the Australian economy. This obscure independent is a kingmaker in a deadlocked election that has investors hanging in the balance." Submitted by WM.
CANADA: Parliament will vote soon on bill to abolish gun registry
"Joe Comartin has been counting all summer and he’s not sure the numbers are there to save the controversial long-gun registry. He figures he’s three MPs shy of a win.

QLD: Nobody argues with a straight shooter like Bob Katter
"Everyone agrees Bob Katter is a passionate man. But whether he can negotiate is another matter entirely. Whether he's arguing for gun ownership, industry protection, regulated ethanol standards or economic rationalism, no one wants to debate the Akubra-wearing political cowboy. "You don't debate," chair of the National Coalition for Gun Control Samantha Lee said. "He has his agenda and no one's going to be able to infiltrate that."
AUS: Abbott promises 'new politics' as Coalition edges ahead
"The coalition's chances of forming a minority government have taken a dramatic change for the better following counting of votes in two key seats late today. Analysts have given the crucial Tasmanian seat of Denison to the independent Andrew Wilkie after he drew 1375 votes ahead of Labor's Jonathan Jackson. If Mr Wilkie wins the seat it will push the number of independents in the new parliament to four, adding confusion to an already complex situation." 'New politics', eh? Amazing how a tied parliament makes democrats of us all.
AUS: An update on the Federal Election—ALP Blog
"Whilst it will be a number of days until counting finishes, it is clear the majority of Australians want a Labor Government. This is certainly due to the dedicated work of Labor supporters like you, who have been campaigning long and hard this election. Julia Gillard is committed to leading a stable and effective government for all Australia, built on consensus and negotiation. In that spirit, the Prime Minister has begun initial discussions with both the Independents and the Greens."
US: Hunters always portrayed as villains
"Would you like to wow your friends with your ability to predict who, in a TV crime or legal drama, will eventually be found to be the killer or all-around bad guy or gal? Well, just zero in on anyone who is 1.) a hunter; 2.) has mounted deer or taxidermy animals — ducks, fish, etc. — hanging on the walls; or 3.) wearing fur. Just like that you will have nailed down the identity of the TV villain probably 99 times out of 100."
NSW: More rubbish from "Professor" Alpers
''According to police, Customs and the Attorney-General's office, firearm theft is still the major source of illicit firearm trades - that when it's stolen it goes into the hands of a criminal,'' Philip Alpers, adjunct associate professor, said. Several investigations into smuggling have concluded that firearm smuggling and illegal importation was ''ad hoc'' with only two or three weapons brought in at a time, Associate Professor Alpers said."

AUS: Fishers beware; seas are the new battleground
"In case it passed you by in the recent, just cleared, political blizzard, there's been a shift in our domestic environmental battlefronts, to the sea. After decades as an election cutting point, forests were absent on Saturday. Instead the resource versus protection barney moved to Australia's marine domain. In the past year, a politically sharp, well-funded recreational fisheries lobby has emerged for the first time to take on, and beat, scientists and environmentalists." Well, shooters did tell fishers who would be next. They reckoned we were scare-mongering!
NSW: Federal election—Collateral damages
"The generous attempt of the two-timing party girl Cheryl Kernot to serve the people of NSW has been rudely ignored. The former Democrat/Labor politician's prospects for another Senate sitting were presumed to have been enhanced by last week's Chaser. She appeared on the program, answering the musical critique ''They're all f-----'', with the assurance: ''I'm not anymore''. Preference flow specialist Glenn Druery. . .was more successful than Kernot. . .Druery and his Liberal Democrats received 65,042 first-preference votes."
NSW: Greens win seats in every state
"The Senate is set to move sharply to the left, with the Greens winning a Senate seat in every state, and Labor taking a Coalition seat in Tasmania. After Victoria, the next closest contest was in New South Wales, where the Greens put up their NSW leader, former communist Lee Rhiannon." LDP President Peter Whelan claims that had Shooters & Fishers Party preferenced the LDP, its candidate would have been elected ahead of Ms. Rhiannon.
NSW: Thieves armed with machetes terrify club staff
"Three machete-wielding thieves have terrified staff at a club in Sydney's inner west, smashing cabinets and stealing firearms. The armed robbery happened at the sporting club at Byrne Road in Auburn shortly after 2pm (AEST), police said." Political parties, eager to be seen as 'tough on crime', will concentrate on the instrument rather than the thief.
SA: Brazen Adelaide Hills post office robbery
"Sergeant Rob Papworth said a man entered the Belair post office on Main Rd about 9.40am and brandished a small firearm at a female worker, before fleeing with an amount of cash. Paul Kim, who works in a newsagent in the same shopping complex as the post office, said the robbery had brought back "bad memories." "Two years ago a man armed with a knife robbed this newsagency and stole cigarettes. About a year ago someone also robbed the butcher store, we have since brought in CCTV to try and protect us," he said." CCTTV might help catch the perpetrators, but protect you? Really?
US: New York Times on the Australian election
"Prime Minister Julia Gillard and her conservative rival, Tony Abbott, began what many analysts expect to be a lengthy period of negotiations to win over the crucial bloc. Australia has not had a minority government since 1940. Labor, which held 83 seats before the election on Saturday, lost at least 13 and is at risk of becoming the first government in nearly 80 years to be turned from office after just one three-year term."
NSW: 'Spin and Fakery'
"This morning former New South Wales premier Morris Iemma came out swinging against campaign director Karl Bitar, who has blamed Labor's poor performance on damaging leaks during the second week of the campaign. But Mr Iemma, who was forced out of office in 2008 when Mr Bitar was then the secretary of NSW Labor, says Mr Bitar needs to take responsibility for Labor's failure to secure a majority."
AUS: Green will talk to Abbott, but new MHR supports Gillard
"Australian Greens Leader Bob Brown says he will negotiate with Julia Gillard and Tony Abbott about the formation of the next government. But despite Senator Brown's assurances that the door is open to the leaders of both major parties, the Greens' newly elected lower house MP, Adam Bandt, wants to work with Labor. When pressed, Mr Bandt would not say directly whether he could imagine ever backing a deal that would hand Mr Abbott the prime ministership." RELATED: Reality bites for Greens MHR

AUS: 'A pox on both their houses'
"Julia Gillard is grimly clinging to power today, insisting that Labor won the most votes overall, that she can form a government, and that she will negotiate with independents in good faith. But the odds appear against her holding on to the job.

Senate 2010: Greens win balance of power, LDP candidate may also get up
"The Greens will take over the balance of power in the new Senate, after picking up seats in at least three states - including Victoria. While seats in the lower house were swinging towards the Coalition, the upper house swung away from it. A fascinating race was under way in NSW, where 80 candidates from 33 parties or independent groups were on the ballot paper - many of them unknowns directing their preferences to Mr Druery, running this time for the Liberal Democrats."
Election 2010: 80,000 uncounted votes will determine winner
"Up to 80,000 uncounted votes in four seats will determine which of the two major parties forms a minority government in Australia's first hung parliament in 60 years. If the numbers fall Labor's way, Prime Minister Julia Gillard will be in a position to form a government with the support of an Australian Greens MP and one of possibly four independents."
Election 2010: Parties trade accusations of dirty tricks
"The major parties have traded accusations of the other using dirty tricks at polling booths in the battleground states of Queensland and New South Wales. The Queensland Labor Party has made a formal complaint to the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) after discovering Liberal National Party (LNP) supporters dressed in T-shirts with Greens party slogans at polling booths in the seat of Ryan in Brisbane."
Election 2010: Faceless fools trash the Labor brand
"Well done, faceless men. With polls showing a last-minute swing against Labor, particularly in illusion-free western Sydney, and the country edging towards a knife-edge result, they have successfully trashed their party brand. Win, lose, or draw, the unscrupulous gamble by Labor's factional and union heavies to remove a democratically elected prime minister eight weeks ago and rush to an election has not been a triumph for Labor or for Julia Gillard."
AUS: Power struggle developing in The Greens
"Cracks are appearing in the Greens as the party stands on the edge of unprecedented power in parliament.
