Recent violent crimes, particularly those committed against women, have excited the small but aspirational gun-loving community. Take this exchange on Twitter for instance between two people we will call Gunna, who is a fervent gun fancier, and T, his target.
Now y’all just hang on a minute Gunna. Surely the maintenance of liberty and protection primarily lies with the judiciary and the police.
And it is about feminism because in stranger rapes it is overwhelmingly women who are set upon and sexually assaulted by predatory men.
In fact Gunna’s desire to be able to own and carry weapons would not have done one thing to protect Jill Meagher from her attacker. But a better probation and parole system would have ensured a dangerous predator like Adrian Bayley was not allowed onto the streets.
Gunna’s attitude to women
Gunna was rather peeved with author and commentator Anne Summers after her appearance on the ABC’s Q&A. So no doubt lovingly clutching his hard shiny weapon, he decided that the “remedy” for her was…you guessed it.
Gunna may care to note that Summers has lived happily with a man for over 20 years so does not require his advice. She does not require his advice anyway.
So Gunna STFU.
But then again Gunna does have his tools to play with.
Now here he is probing into T’s personal life. He suggests an online dating site, an activity with which he is obviously very familiar. That is usually what certain men on social media do when they are losing the argument.
When Nigella Lawson was allegedly assaulted by her husband Charles Saatchi
Gunna decided to put the Shadow Minister for Communications, a high-profile politician, barrister and millionaire, in his place.
After all Gunna is such a roaring success because he spends hours on Twitter, and is a renowned expert on women.

Capitalises on the tragic murder of Jill Meagher to score points
Gunna happily boast he is a former engineer, implies he is married, and states that he has represented Australia in shooting events.
We only have his word for all this.
He is also a climate change denier. Funny how all the far right obsessions seem to coalesce in him. Gun-lovers tend to be a bit like that. Just look at the Shooters & Fishers.
You can catch Gunna if you are really all that interested, or at his blog here
We think we know what ails him.
you said it... 
What is it with these turkeys. It should be mandatory to sit an IQ & a psychological assessment test before obtaining a gun licence. There would be a massive reduction in the numbers of guns held by these nongs.
I’m going for my gun licence next week.Can’t wait, alot of pests need exterminating.
We won’t be too sorry if you accidentally harm yourself with it – which is the likely outcome.
He got one thing right; we can’t afford to house 5 BILLION people (my emphasis.)
