My assumption is that you are asking a rhetorical question.

No have not seen that, on my news feeds I get things of a green-left orientation; I did not receive this today. Something like that would be in the serious media, even if it was a pro-left guardian/ABC/SBS. Firstly to allow that project, legislation would need to be passed. Parliament not sitting for about another month. So is obviously a hoax.

And we all know what happens with hoaxes on mediums like Facebook
.Ooooh, maybe someone should invent an "Are you smart enough for social media?" test that ALL people have to pass before they get a Facebook or any other social media account
It'll have great questions like "If someone warns you that if you continue reading that you will be cursed by an undead female child unless you repost this, what would you do?" and "Is it acceptable to photograph your food/baby on the potty/baby vomiting/pet looking up innocently next to an "accident"/duckface, yes or no?"
It might be a solution to social media-induced narcissistic personality disorders
Oh, sorry, I digressed from politics. Um. So about this Clive Palmer dude, hey? What a complete tool
the sad part is that he'll probably still manage to get voted for if he stands again in 3 years time.

LOL....well he needs to have some policy beyond removing mining/carbon tax. He has all the makings of a one term wonder like....Pauline Hanson. She came in with guns blazing in 1996. Tried to form a party - named after her - in 1997. By October 1998 elections, it was all over. People had had enough.

Peta Credlin escapes a drink driving charge and fined $69 court fees....
What a discrace
Any other thoughts?

Maybe it's just me, but I agree with some of what he says.
You can't argue that a large percentage of US gun crime is drug/gang related.
As for if teachers we're armed, well we'll never know with that one.

It really depends on what the law says in Canberra (I presume that's where she was) and what other people who blow similar amounts with a similar driving record get. In Victoria it wouldn't happen as AFAIK there it's mandated you must loose your license for over 0.05 without any provision for discretion.

Nah, more guns is not the solution to gun related crime.
Think of it this way, all those people on the roads, the ones who can't merge, can't maintain speed, maintain their name, can't indicate, are perplexed by round abouts, crash into each other, mistake the accelerator for the break, etc.
How would you feel about all of them having guns?
While one of incidents like school shootings could potentially be avoided, imagine how many people would shoot themselves or others through sheer stupidity.
