1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,160 Speaker 1: It seemed like a thing until it wasn't. Guns I 2 00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,720 Speaker 1: think are like flu ride, aren't they? Or masm? The 3 00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 1: old masm gets people a bit angsty. Out of christ 4 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: Church came the idea that gun law needed amending. The 5 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:13,920 Speaker 1: amending got another look when Act came to power, because 6 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 1: they are libertarians and people who broadly speaking, have a 7 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:18,599 Speaker 1: common sense view of the world, and the idea that 8 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:20,800 Speaker 1: the more you restrict weaponry, the less likely you are 9 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,119 Speaker 1: to have a massacre is of course nonsense, and like 10 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: so many things that you'd earn Hepkin Zerra was responsible 11 00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 1: for real world policy for real world behavior. Wasn't really 12 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 1: one of them nuts's get guns. The fact Tarrant got 13 00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 1: his legally didn't change the equation. And that's before you 14 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 1: get to the bit this is not a country of 15 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: hot head crazies with the longlist of violent massacres. It 16 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: is true we have a lot of guns per head 17 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: of population, but that reflects our outdoors and rural lifestyles 18 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: as opposed to an American type view of defending yourself. Anyway, 19 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 1: Nicole McKee, straight from the gun side of the equation, 20 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 1: was going to have a look, and from that came 21 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 1: the expectation that some sort of major liberalization was coming, 22 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: but it was not to be. Yesterday was more, as 23 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: it turned out, a bit of a devil than a revolution. 24 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: And the fact McKee and act hav invoked agree to 25 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 1: disagree as either assign a political maturity or seething anger, 26 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,839 Speaker 1: or possibly both. If you listen to Mark Mitchell around 27 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: the police's role and the Firearm Safety Authority National will 28 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: never budget. There is some stuff there about three D 29 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,360 Speaker 1: printing which makes sense, but overall it puts this whole 30 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: exercise into the category of a review, not an overhaul. 31 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: I never thought personally listening of access to the so 32 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 1: called MSSA weapons was a major but I get a 33 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: lot of people would have in a way. It's a 34 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: good example of the disconnect I think really between the 35 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: country and the city. The city would be aghast those 36 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: sort of guns because the city doesn't use guns, or 37 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 1: get it, most gun own as a regular people burdened 38 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,040 Speaker 1: by a regular thinking of the adourns who couldn't or 39 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't know one end of a gun from another. McKee 40 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: was from the other side of the argument, but ultimately lost. 41 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: That's politics, so carry on. Then The angst was wasted, 42 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 1: nothing to see here for more from the mic Asking Breakfast, 43 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: listen live to news talks that'd be from six am weekdays, 44 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: or follow the podcast on iheartre video
