Bonus content, since the members here are cool and funny people: Our media director has been reading the “colour commentary” across social media and shaking his head at some of it.
Especially considering they have never responded to a single e-mail we’ve sent them, whether it’s asking to be involved with WAFCA when they announced its formation, or sending them a formal invitation to attend the rally.
Shooters Union Western Australia is delighted to announce speakers for the WA Gun Rally, taking place this Saturday at the Supreme Court Gardens in Perth from 10.30am!
The speakers will include:
The Hon Louise Kingston MLC, Member for South Western Region
Mr Ryan Burns, Lead Libertarian Candidate for WA Upper House
Dr Augusto Zimmermann, Law Professor and Former Law Reform Commissioner
Mr Steve Harrison, Shooters Union Western Australia State Advocate
Mr David Brown, Shooters Union Western Australia Director
This is a family-friendly event, WAPOL-approved event focussed on the issues with WA’s gun laws and what WA shooters can do about them - and it is an outdoor event (the forecast is for a sunny, warm day!) so SU WA are asking everyone to remember their hats, sunscreen, and hydration too.
Ive written multiple letters to to my local mps and the only postive response was from the nationals representative. My biggest gripe is that im a land owner (22acres) that i run sheep and a large amount of chickens that my son turns a profit on at the local auction.
Now im in a predicament that ive already handed in my air rifles and small bore shotguns that i used for vermin control. Now i have the problem of handing in my smaller calibres that i use extensively on my ptoperty and other smaller properties around me. Or my larger calibre rifles that i use to hunt when i travel up north hunt pigs, deer and goats
So what do i do? wound larger animals with small calibres and put myself in danger and animals through undo suffering or use large calibres on small properties that imo is dangerous and causes a problems with noise complaints. Ive expressed this situation with the firearms branch and they cant seem to give me an answer.
Sorry about the poor grammer and hope to see a good turn on the 8th
Thanks for the kind words! The rally went really well; at least 1500 people showed up, the crowd behaved extremely well and the speakers were really good.
Even after the main event wrapped up, huge numbers of people stayed behind to talk to the speakers and SUWA representatives - it was a great day.
