OFF: Ted Nugent - this ones for Mike

[michael blackman]

Here in Australia all semi automatic weapons and a large variety of weapons
have been prohibited since the shootings in Tasmania.  The prohibition was
started mainly due to emotional over reaction.

Since the prohibition was initiated the incidents of violent crimes being
commited has increased dramatically - ironically - with the very types of
weapons that are supposedly unavaiable to the public.

Think about it

Now the black market (mafia) have a boomimg business and all us honest
citizens have nothing to defend ourselves with if we ever find ourselves in
such a situation where we may need to defend ourselves.
