One month after a terrorist father-and-son duo unleashed a barrage of bullets at Australia’s Bondi Beach in an effort to kill Jews celebrating Hanukkah, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will reportedly pressure different political factions to support so-called “gun reform.”
Quoted by The Guardian, Tom Kenyon, chief executive of the Sporting Shooters’ Association of Australia, declared, “We’re in the fight of our lives.”
VisaHQ is reporting Albanese has called a two-day special session of the Australian Parliament to debate guns and legislation to crack down on hate speech. Part of this is a proposed gun buyback, billed as the largest since the one following the Port Arthur attack many years ago. That session is slated for Jan. 19-20.
While the Albanese government is working on this gun control scheme, in an essay published by the Fair Observer, writer Sonali Kolhatkar exhibits a disdain for white male gun owning Americans whom she identifies as “disproportionately right-wing,” blaming them and the National Rifle Association for having a “stranglehold” over this country’s political system.
