    I do wonder though, would he of still had his license revoked if he was a PRO-1080 protestor?
    No. Because we don't behave like that

    At best, the guy is not helping his anti-1080 cause by looking so unkempt.

    As for @systolic making comments about his "mental" brother in law, I imagine he just hasn't found a more appropriate adjective. When he finds the right one I'm sure he'll prefer it over "mental".
    re the systolic matter ???two peas in a pod then i take it.I often get similar responses from both of you.

    It is DOC, not Doc.

    @kotuku,

    Was going to reply, but you don't seem to tolerate responses too well.

    I suppose it could be argued that it is a right only if you meet the criteria for the term, "fit and proper".

    Correct. It was a measure put in place to prevent mentally-unstable/lunatics/gangs(?) from acquiring firearms. It's not bullet proof but the past few decades it has and still works effectively.

    Prior to the "fit and proper" test a license was issued, prior to that you just had firearms at your will.

    Well, this thread has been pretty predictable...

    @Cordite, @Maca49, what would it take in terms of behavior from an anti-1080 person for you guys to stand up and say "oi, that's not acceptable, stop that !"

    If someone threatens DOC staff, or police involved in keeping the protestors and workers apart, is that ok ?

    If someone actually assaults DOC staff or police is that ok purely because they are fighting for a "noble cause" ?

    Is willful damage to property (cutting fences, padlocks, damaging vehicles) ok ?

    Not saying this person has done any if these, just trying to figure out what your threshold is .

    I'm a mechanic, do WOF as part of the job. We have to have signs out front telling people that if they threaten staff, the police will be called. Imagine that: Bald tyres? tell the girl on the counter you're going to smash her if you don't get the sticker TODAY. Brakes fucked? Tell the dickhead under the car he's a dead man walking.

    How do people arrive at these responses? Answer: a certain percentage of people in the general population are absolute cretins and belong in a cage.

    That is tantamount to a golden touchdown Tahr. Maximum points scored.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
