A report has been released by Gun Control Australia that revealed firearm theft has doubled in Australia over the last decade.
Gun advocates were concerned by the initial reaction to the report, and claimed this wasn’t a major issue to be launching tougher gun ownership laws at and the report publisher, a not-for-profit, has a clear agenda.
According to the Shooters Fisher and Farmers Party, 72% of stolen gun are recovered and those guns stolen are often from inner-city homes where irresponsible owners are disobeying current gun laws.
