Snap Shots: Girls Just Want to Have Fun, With Guns.


Girls just want to have fun

We start with a great piece from the Courier Mail about an increase in the popularity of guns amongst Queensland schoolgirls, some of whom are doing very well in competitions.  There’s some of your usual nonsense from GCA’s Roland Browne – he equates his son pointing a torch in someone’s eyes with pointing a gun at someone –  but overall it’s a positive story that augurs well for our sport.

Gun facts

Next we have another positive piece from Dr Samara McPhedron, published on The Big Smoke website. Dr McPhedron argues that the facts simply don’t support the argument of NSW MLC David Shoebridge that more gun laws equate to more safety.  We all knew that, but it’s good to see someone speaking up and putting it in writing. Dr McPhedron is the current Chair of the International Coalition for Women in Shooting and Hunting.

Hunting trial fail

Here what Shooters and Fishers Party MP Robert Brown had to say in this 2GB radio interview in regards to the furore over the New South Wales government spending over $7000 per animal in the recent “trial” of hunting in National Parks.  

Borsak on the Ammo Bill

Sticking with the Shooters and Fishers Part, here’s Robert Borsak speaking out against the Ammo Bill on Sky News.  For a pleasant change, he gets some good support from hosts Kristina Keneally and Ross Cameron.
