"Under NSW law there is next to no scrutiny of the reasons people give
for acquiring guns and this has lead to a real spike in the number of
weapons in circulation in the State.
"If a person genuinely needs to have more than three weapons then they
should have to satisfy a very stringent test focused on exceptional
circumstances.
"This legislation will allow law-abiding gun owners to hold an
appropriate number of firearms for legitimate use, but will prevent
the accumulation of private arsenals," Mr Shoebridge said.

I'm glad I live in the USA, where I don't have to explain my "reason,"
"needs," or "appropriateness" to own the guns I want to some
government toady, much less some mealy-mouthed sycophant bootlicker
like David Shoebridge.
