If this is their consultation process, and you guys are raising valid concerns, then it is imperative those concerns are made public at the forums, or in writing via whatever process is established.
Do not assume that by questioning, or, dare I say it, venting on this forum you have done your bit; you haven’t. You need to ensure whatever concerns, questions and praise you might have are directed, and duly recorded within the appointed process.
I for one am becoming increasingly aware that ‘consultation’ requires active and intelligent participation.
And if the implications are unclear to you, that in itself is a danger sign.
Ask yourself;
How will these changes benefit me?
How might these changes benefit my family, my community?
How will this process benefit legitimate users of firearms per our current situation and classifications?
How will this directly reduce the risks associated with firearms, including possession and use of firearms by non-licenced users, including criminal elements?
