Recognise the mass shooting for the tragic but extremely rare occurrence that it is, address the intelligence failures that led to the shooters not being discovered earlier, and leave protestors and lawful gun owners alone
Unfortunately, the LNP will use the excuse to crack down on immigration, the ALP will use the excuse to crack down on protesters and the Greens will use the excuse to crack down on legitimate gun owners.
In what world does legitimate need for a gun include unlimited guns per owner? In what world does a hobby count as a legitimate use? (both things that lead the shooters to having the guns in the first place).
Sorry gun hobbyists, get a new hobby. Like how is it a sane position that you can have a hobby that puts the community at risk. Do archery ffs. It’s way cooler and you can’t kill a bunch of people in rapid succession (I mean, unless you’re Legolas)
Collecting every element as a hobby could be done responsibly, but we don’t allow that either, and for good reason. We, as a society, deem it an unacceptable risk.
Unfortunately this tragedy will be co-opted for the other bad things you mentioned, but tightening our kinda loose gun laws is not one of them.
Farmers, the military, specialised police and animal control need a certain amount of guns. The current laws do not achieve this.
If we’re not going to listen to what the majority Australians think about gunrcontrol, what’s your alternative?

This is the most rational path forward.

Yes to everything except the gun control.
