The 1688 Bill Of Rights preamble applies in particular State Constitutions, ditto Commonwealth, DESPITE what 'trendy, left-wingers generally, and reformist socialistist lawyers' might say.
Ignore and 'dismiss' such (as say an ancient trinket) as you wish, as we do now, but such is still enforceable, it, the Constitution - doesn't stop every government agency trying to push the boundry. Give a bit, take a lot, give a bit more back, take more again later.
The UN Human Rights Declaration undergoes 'change', or has vis; a few 'word' changes here and there, plays better for GovCo's that way.
Freedom is not hereditary.
I have no problem btw with 'medically fit' Australian citizens taking up 'sporting shooting' (clay target etc), - a sometimes seperate issue to necessarily owning a gun in a gun-safe in the house. I am not a gun owner or shooter myself.
I use to do same in PNG however, well before the onslaught of extremist political correctness.
These days, most young Aussie men are expected the break down and cry, and to then set about seeking 'counselling' at the mere sight of a real rifle. So if you ever visit an RSL or museum, stiffen up a bit and try not to cry, particularly in front of our regional 'neighbours'.
