-- I dont know how many gun shops in Australia but If there was only one it would be to many.
In the USA A gun store in Milwaukee is the nation's leader in sales of guns recovered by police during criminal investigations.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms reports Badger Outdoors of West Milwaukee sold 537 guns last year later used in crimes.
This comes after Milwaukee is trying to recover from a Memorial Day weekend in which nearly 30 people were shot and four were killed.
Store owners claim they do extensive background checks and they cannot control people selling their guns to a third party.
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett wants to meet with the owners to try and crack down on the third-party sales.
We need to Ban all Gun stores

We need to Ban all Gun stores ------ Hello Cardigan I reckon it's about time that we start hacking at the real issues of gun control.. Even though I've ranted and raved over some of your more volumnious posts, I still think some of your ideas are certainly worthy.... How's this for an idea: Lets get back to basics, leaving the personal stuff, abuse and duplicity out of it. I'd like to have a serious chin-wag on this topic, but I think we can only do this if we start treating each other with a modicum of respect and decency. If you think there is a possibility of stepping back from the current scrap, I'd be happy to start a thread along these lines in AussieSeek and Matilda to get it rocking. We might never fully agree with each other but it's gotta be worth a crack.. Whaddaya reckon.... your call. Joe --------------- ''You were one of the more sensible ones But youre not from NZ and you have run away ;D |

You're actually incorrect Cardi - Joe lives in the Taranaki area of NZ.
Now Cardi look here, you now have your own board. Would you mind please keeping your 'Brady Bunch' spam on that board. This board actually had good content regarding other things that are more important to lots of other people before it got messed up with a string of Gun crap.
It may be appealing to someone like yourself who gets paid for doing so but quite frankly many of us posters would prefer the subject be kept to Matilda where you can go for your life. Fair trade I think.
