As I understand it, legal gun ownership requires a licencee to demonstrate a "genuine reason" for such ownership. But a 50'ish suburban man can have 6?!!
The 50-year-old Bondi beach terror suspect who died was a licensed firearms holder, and had six firearms, NSW police say. Police have the six firearms from the scene yesterday. His 24yo son is in police custody in hospital in a critical but stable condition.

I've been collecting pandemic era signs that nobody can be bothered to take down or remove. There's something grimly fascinating about this. Putting them up was urgent and important; removing them is nobody's job. How long will some of these hang around?

A friend kept getting sick. I said it might be repeated COVID infections.
He laughed — “You think everything is COVID”
Then added, “Everyone’s been sick lately — it’s normal now”
That’s not normal. That’s what years of COVID denial have done.

Gas exports have meant Australian households and businesses have paid billions of dollars more for energy over the last decade.
