Australia -- the 1st world leader of the modern Progressive policies. 2018 -- citizens loose communication privacy protection [0] 2017 -- whistleblowers and dissidents are committed to mental institutions [1] 2016 -- citizens loose financial transaction privacy (the cashless society with finalized transition by 2020) [2] 1996 -- government confiscated all firearms from the hands of private, law abiding citizens Sweden, and Canada are next. Basically -- step-by-step methodology to run country-sized Mafia operation is being implemented.

  thx for the correction. You are right. I should have said the confiscation (mandatory bayback) started with all semi-automatics and pump-action in 1996. WRT pistols, the pistols that are allowed, have less lethal power than bow and arrow (if the below excerpt is correct). ".... they can then attend at a licenced firearm dealer and select a handgun which is suitable for the competition in which they intend to take part. This firearm may be a single-shot air pistol, a single-shot .22-calibre pistol or a .22-calibre revolver or self-loading pistol. …" https://ssaa.org.au/news-resources/research-archive/handgun-ownership-facts-in-australia/ https://ssaa.org.au/news-resources/research-archive/handgun-... not sure if this was also the case before '96 and self-defense was already banned then. The bolt actions that are allowed, cannot have pistol grip and must not look 'military'.

Australian gun control is completely unrelated to this debate. You can still get a gun license fairly easily, and it solved an actual problem (there hasn't been a mass shooting since). I would argue that the passing of the antiterrorism acts in 2005 was a far more severe issue than the 2016 bill -- they basically removed hebeas corupus. Shit's been going on for much longer than you think.
