NOPE. Absolutely FINE by me if Australians want to have their own NRA, same
with the UK and Canada. Interestingly, the number of NRA members in the USA
equals to around 1/5th to 1/4th the total population of Australia, depending
on who you believe. There are also 3 -  3  1/2 times as many gun owners in
the USA than there are peole in Australia, AND at least 10 times as many
guns in private ownership in the USA than there are people in Australia.

Given THAT and: http://www.gun-nuttery.com/rtc.php and
http://www.washtimes.com/national/20031002-110954-9292r.htm and

Your "position" is moot.
