25.01.2022 In 2016-2017 Jackie Trad, Deputy Premier of Queensland, ran a bullshit campaign against boring lever action shotguns that hadn't hurt anyone. She ran a big bad anti-gun campaign, like a far left woman attempting to preserve her inner urban seat. Well, just like any far left candidate, her loony campaigns - no matter how ill-conceived - were not enough. The Greens kindly felled her this election, in favour of a younger woman with a shorter haircut and fewer children. Such is life. Some factors don't change, even when you're supposedly on the feminist left!!!!
22.01.2022 The LNP has made no effort to check or restrict the dictatorial power they gave Queensland Labor to close businesses. The LNP was quick to join the ban on lever action shotguns. What if the pandemic erupts again in Qld? Do you seriously think Labor will not use any excuse to close firearms dealers again? Even for online sales? Labor will take any opportunity to hurt the law-abiding voters it hates the most: shooters. Think of all the things going wrong in other states of Australia. Think of the appearance laws (banning guns because of what they look like), criminalising gel ball blasters, new and crazy restrictions of all kinds. This is what Labor stands for. This is what LNP won’t say ‘No!’ to. Vote Katter or One Nation. https://www.lafo.com.au/qld-2020-labor-wants-your-guns-lnp/
20.01.2022 We identified some of the firearms licensees in the privacy breach using public records. Did you know the following people hold firearms licenses? [Mr B, Mr B’s Home Address] [Mr S, Mr S’s Home Address] [Mr R, Mr R’s Home Address]... We haven’t communicated with these licensees, but their identity and physical address were ascertainable in 15 minutes using readily accessible public records. Our estimate is that most of the email addresses would be exploitable in this way. Entertainingly, the email advised licensees: Don’t make it public knowledge that you possess firearms. https://www.lafo.com.au/massive-privacy-breach-qps-identif/ See more
19.01.2022 Assistant Commissioner Crawford writes to all police members in bold: "I would ask that the members of QPS cease providing advice to business owners as to whether or not they are able to recommence their business operations." The Queensland Police have been used by Queensland Labor and Queensland Health to enforce these insane measures. LAFO has previously exposed the disgusting Queensland Labor premise that closing Queensland Firearms Dealers during the pandemic would reduce... domestic violence (never mind licensed shooters have guns and ammo at home). By May 2020 and with Labor Lockdown regulations changing more than weekly, Queensland Police threw their hands up in the air and admitted that they couldn’t give advice to business operators. https://www.lafo.com.au/qld-labor-lockdowns-businesses-are/
17.01.2022 QPS gives out your email address? Email [email protected] and complain TODAY under the Privacy Act. https://www.queenslandcountrylife.com.au//firearms-data-/
10.01.2022 Breaking news!*** Lisa Neville agrees to fly to Queensland to give evidence in support of the National Shooting Council's "legal action" against Queensland's Chief Health Officer. Neville will prove that the constitution is imaginary and you can pay your taxes in sheep. Seriously though: It's great how they've even quoted SSAA as suggesting this "legal action" could be a stunt. Gee, could it be? Great big donate button. Send sheep today! https://nationalshooting.org.au//ssaa-ada-and-fga-decline-

10.01.2022 Shots fired by Shooters Union in what is the biggest battle since '96. The offer of assistance through the QCAT process alone is why you should join SU today.
06.01.2022 There's a lot of foul work by Queensland Labour and enabled by the LNP against farmers and shooters. On lafo.com.au we've covered: taking pistols off farmers controlling pigs, closing dealers under the pretense of Covid, demonising gel ball blasters, trying to impose ammo limits. The simple truth is you need to vote for Katter, One Nation, or someone else besides the major parties, or you can keep suffering the consequences.
05.01.2022 Dear Qld Police Minister, Mandatory entry to your constituents’ homes A pistol shooter received the QPS email about storage requirements. It was headed Weapons Audit. He had his storage and firearms inspected less than 12 months ago. His address, license and firearms holdings haven’t changed in more than 12 months. After asking why he received the Weapons Audit email, he was emailed by Caboolture Police Inspector Lee Jeffries and told that police entry, if desired, t...o his home was mandatory and that he would be reported to Weapons Licensing branch for suggesting another inspection within 12 months was unnecessary. Why this approach? We draw your attention to the fact that QPS are able to inspect firearms and/or storage under Weapons Act, when license or permit applications or renewals are made. They are also able to inspect firearms with 48 hours notice (outside a person’s home, or within it, with the person’s consent) under the Police Powers and Responsibilities Act. The idea that no matter how recently you have been inspected, Police have the unilateral power to enter your home without any sort of cause, is a dangerous and unfounded one. All the QPS puff about partnering with the community doesn’t really wash if you’re saying you can enter our lounge rooms any time you like. When we’ve been heavily vetted and almost universally have stable careers and households, that sort of attitude is quite understandably viewed as abject rudeness. https://www.lafo.com.au/mandatory-entry-to-queensland-home/ See more
05.01.2022 Weapons Licensing are getting their tails kicked on the new 'fit and proper person' guidelines.
04.01.2022 On 27 March 2020, the Australian Defence Force’s East Coast Tactical Assault Group and Queensland Police Special Emergency Response Team were forbidden from buying weapons, ammunition and other equipment to train and respond to a terrorist incident. This wasn’t an accident. It was a regulation design by Queensland’s Department of Premier and Cabinet and implemented by Queensland’s Chief Health Officer. It was done under a brand new power to respond to Covid-19. Why? In recent... years, Australia had dealt with a rash of terrorist incidents in its capital cities. Two out of a dozen examples: Trolley Man foiled a Melbourne Islamist, limiting the death toll to one, while the Martin Place Siege in Sydney resulted in further tragic consequences thanks to an Islamist armed with an unregistered shotgun. https://www.lafo.com.au/welcome-terrorists-says-qld-labor/ See more
03.01.2022 A surprise Queensland Audit Office report says that Weapons Licensing should revoke tens of thousands of firearms licenses from ordinary people who know low-level criminals or who have made an honest mistake. How confident are you that none of your associates have a criminal records in the past? How confident are you that you don’t have a tiny .22LR round left in the car somewhere? Should your firearms license be revoked because there was a spare round of .22LR ammunition rolling around in your car boot? Should it be revoked because your brother has a marijuana conviction? Like every good political story, there’s a history to this. We scratch the surface. Email Mark Ryan: [email protected] And tell him what’s wrong https://www.lafo.com.au/lets-revoke-your-firearm-license/
01.01.2022 In the wake of the highly political anti-shooter audit report into Weapons Licensing (click here) that recommend sweeping changes to the licensing system, Queensland’s Weapons Licensing Branch have announced new assessment ‘Guidelines’ (see table at the bottom of this page). Before you assume these won’t affect you, it’s worth unpacking the implications, including: 1. Proposed changes to the Weapons Act, 2. Providing false or misleading information, 3. Auto-rejection for ‘n...o conviction recorded’ offences, 4. Family members especially those living with you (Coming in Part 2), 5. Medical conditions and aging (Coming in Part 2), 6. The Orwellian search for ‘not in the public interest’ reasons to revoke your license (Coming in Part 2). https://www.lafo.com.au/qld-weapons-licensing-revocations-/ See more
