AUSSIE CONSTITUTIONAL GUN OWNERSHIP: NSW Upper House MP ignites a war on the major parties

EARLY RELEASE (PATREON): 7 JUN 2025 | GENERAL RELEASE: 10 JUN 25

NSW MP JOHN RUDDICK has tabled a pro-gun motion in that state’s upper house that is set to ignite a broader debate over whether people should be subservient to their government, or vice versa in meeting the needs of the people.

It’s a philosophy that has seen the US grow into the great nation it is today - by promoting rights and creativity - while Australia has gone in the other direction.

John’s journey in politics isn’t accidental. Starting as a staffer in the Howard Government, John soon realised that the government’s approach to guns – and freedoms generally – was wrong.

In his words, his approach hasn’t been to incrementally defending firearm ownership, but to ‘go on the attack’ against those who oppose firearm ownership.

The facts John presents are irrefutable – but whether that is enough to persuade the major parties to at least listen and engage in a mature debate remains to be seen.

Unfortunately, the track record of the major parties suggest they will not, but we see this as a really healthy and welcome debate to start.

The motion may be about guns (and whether or not you agree with the specific motion), but it’s just one example of where this debate can go. This is going to be an entertaining and illustrative debate that kicks off in the next month or so.

Even @TopherField went from supporting Howard’s position on guns, to opposing it.
