Well that's the answer:
No, if guns become illegal you CANNOT use swords.

I thought better of our Australian friends. Why do they elect these pukes?

Must be a lot of violent liberals over there. Gotta protect them from them selves.

and went to the local 7-11 to get some snacks and to talk to the clerk

LOL!

Before my husband and I met, he worked at a convienience store.

He used to stop gas thieves and shoplifters by throwing small cans of tomato sauce at them.

Apparently he was a pretty good shot, because the cops nicknamed him 'The Tomato Can Man'!

See, they shouldn't ban swords. Just ban the high-capacity scabbards.

I've been reading these forums for quite a while, and I actually get pretty disturbed sometimes about the misinformation about Australia that gets posted here at times.

Thanks for clarifying the situation.

(That's why I like FR, you get accurate information from the source!)

That's funny, I was always taught by the army that the deadliest weapon is the one between your ears. That's why we need not fear liberals. They are unarmed by choice.

There was something about this a couple months ago. Smurf-search wouldn't find it of course. Is duelling illegal? A duelling society is a polite society.

But they haven't disarmed us.

So, what's up w/ the pics we saw several years ago of steam rollers crushing mountains of confiscated rifles ?
& news reports of increased violent crimes post confiscation ?
