Well I hope there is some consistency in the Australian legal system and that all the armed offender, swat and sniping units have rifles fitted with triggers that are around the 10 lbs. As the old legal maxim states- "all are equal before the law". Hmmmm.
Probably about time to dust off the old guillotine and remind some of those what happens when they get the pendulum swinging too far past the middle. The old PTB's (powers that be) are aware of what is commonly referred to as the "revolution line", whereby you dont piss off the masses to the extent they get Madame guillotine out, and revolt. It seems to me they might be treading a fairly fine line in some parts of the world these days.
