Braddon gun cache stolen

I don’t think that we are getting the full story.

Some random burglar decided to break into a random shed, and was lucky enough to be able to steal a bunch of guns? Yeah, right.

The concept of a ‘secure shed’ is one I’m still trying to wrap my head around, as well. It is surely an oxymoron.

Are you leaning to the left??

No, I was on holidays, and typing on my mobile phone, which has a less than ferpect (heh heh) keyboard.

Should’ve proofread it before I hit submit. Mea culpa.

Geezus people, there’s always a possibility that the guns were stored in a gun safe in the secure shed.

I find it comforting that most gunshot wounds are self inflicted or the result of an owner’s gun being used against them

Is this a proven fact, or is it just the ‘vibe’?

I could only find old stats (ABS seems to have stopped reporting on them) but if past trends are anything to go on, Stevian is right: http://www.abs.gov.au/AUSSTATS/abs@.nsf/Lookup/4397.0Main+Features11980%20to%201995

Vast majority of firearm deaths are suicide. Homocide is a small number in comparison and accidents half the number of homocides.

Some other report told me that 1 in 5 suicides in Australia are committed with firearms.

I think you mean ‘homicide’ as opposed to ‘homo-cide’. Or perhaps it’s no mistake at all then…………..????

Oops! I blame my NESB and an obvious lack of attention to detail. (And I probably should get that membership so I can correct embarrassing mistakes like that.)
