Gunmen open fire at Bondi Beach in Sydney.

I'm cutting Frydenberg some slack here. For him this is a personal issue, and he let go at Sarah Ferguson on the ABC with a lot of passion. His anger was for his children who go nowhere without being in the presence of armed guards.

I am reluctant to take anything SKY News commentators say but in this case I stayed listening and began to see what Frydenberg wanted to make clear about his reality.

This may not be a popular opinion, but I believe where more citizens are armed and trained, it wouldn't take many episodes like that to put an end to gun violence.

The problem with that theory was that if it was true there would be no gun violence in the US but there is currently a thread about a shooting at Brown University and reports of mass shootings from the USA are far too common.

The vertical line indicates when serious gun control took place after the Port Arthur killings. The problem is that virtually nothing has been done since and gun manufacturers have found ways round the legislation but new legislation including a limit on the number of guns a person can hold will hopefully revise that.

BTW I gave up my gun licence in 1996

Your opinion is valid, it's equally as valid as a diametrically opposed opinion.
That's the thing with opinions, they're personal and no one can tell that they're wrong because they are your personal beliefs.
