More the case that the first thing they think after something like this is that already highly restricted firearms are the issue. Maybe the fact that, along with much of the Western world, they've allowed such rampant anti-Semitism to proceed unchecked for much of the last few years should be looked at first? |  |

Politicians haven’t only allowed it. Many have actively encouraged it. |  |

From reports what is being talked about is more frequent reviews of whether license holders should be allowed to continue to own their guns, limiting licenses to citizens, and a limitation on the number of weapons held under a license. The first proposal might be sensible, the second will be controversial, and as far as I can see the third would not have made any difference. The father apparently had six licenced weapons. Not all of these were used in the attack, which seems to have involved at least three long weapons. Rumours on the web say these included a Beretta BRX1 7.62 or .308 rifle (linear bolt action with standard 5 shot magazine) and a Mossberg Maverick 88 shotgun (pump action 6 or 8 shot weapon available in 12 or 20 gauge). In a country like Australia with extensive farming and field sports, a blanket ban on either shotguns or rifles seems infeasible. I'd guess that a rifle was responsible for most of the fatalities, but it is hard to see what kind of tightening of regulations would make a difference. Unless information on other weapons comes to light, large magazines or semi-automatic AR type rifles (already heavily restricted) don't seem to be involved. Handguns aren't involved in this case, but are generally restricted to use in approved clubs or shooting ranges. Here is some info on existing laws. https://allaboutlawyer.com/what-guns-are-legal-in-australia-complete-guide-to-fi [Post edited 15 Dec 10:07]

| Bondi Beach on 23:45 - Dec 14 by majorraglan | It’s being reported that the hero who took the gun off the offender is a 43 year old man called Ahmed al Ahmed, which I suspect means he’s of Arabic ancestry and likely to be a Muslim. I think this how to show there’s good and bad in all cultures and creeds. |
A hero of the highest order and he should be recognised for hie bravery , as you rightly say there's good and bad in everyone and of course not every Muslim is a terrorist as there are some of the extreme right leaning persuasion who are capable of such crimes but a political ideology is not the same as someone attacking someone because of a different religious faith. |  |

Warnings signs or malicious rumours ,either way the police will have explain why his licence wasn't withdrawn.Like any country even if he hadn't had a licence it would be fairly easy to obtain weapons . |  |

The other question, with antisemitism up 700 percent in Australia, particularly in Sydney and Melbourne, why was there no armed police presence at this event? |  |

Maybe because Australia's PM is of a Labour party persuasion whose Government recognised the Palestinian state amongst other indicators which may have promoted anti semitisism. |  |

The West has been dancing to the pipes of Isreali far right armed millita settlers who like Russia are stealing land that does not belong to them. |
What planet are you on. Muslim terrorist from many countries have been murdering people for years. They do nor need any excuse to kill anyone who is Christian, agnostic, any other faith as well as fellow Muslims of different sects. Supporting terrorism of any sort is unforgivable. I bet the Tens of thousands who join in anti-semetic marches every week in this country will feel very proud of themselves. |  |

It is deeply alarming that extremist ideologies are gaining influence in our country, fundamentally shaping societal norms and values. The failure of political leaders and do-gooders to confront these challenges responsibly is placing an unfair burden on future generations. Those in positions of power must take accountability for the consequences of their decisions, as the legacy they leave will define the world in which our children and grandchildren will live. It sickens me. |  | |  |

If they want to killing each other in the Middle East let them carry on. I’m not aware of any mass murders on these shores which a Jewish person has carried out. If you asked the majority of people in this country would they rather a Jew or a Muslim next door to them I’m pretty confident what the answer would be. I’d imagine those who are getting killed in Palestine are people who raped & murdered children or are basically so thick they continue to break the rules set out during the ceasefire. As I said my concern is for my kids & grandkids. |  | |  |

I suppose the one thing to be grateful for is that there were no automatic weapons involved. Can you imagine the devastation if that were the case? I think you right about rifle bans - unfeasible in a country like Australia. As for the man who intervened, what a hero. A bad guy with a gun stopped by a good guy with a gun. Incredible bravery. |  | |  |

Watching some clips one of the shooters was firing a bolt action rifle and although not an automatic he still managed to fire off shots at what some may consider to be at a marksman speed . |  |
