 Have you seen anyone with guns? Did these measures basically end practical gun ownership? Not on TV - actually see with your own eyes.

Regardless, these rules are completely unacceptable. Its absurd to agree to a thief's demands to only defend yourself in certain ways.

 I'm an American living in Australia and I own a gun and my brother has multiple guns 😏

There's some other annoying rules required for gun ownership, though. Must have a safe that's bolted to floor. Keys cannot be nearby. And for pistol, must be member of a range to regular visit.

 Tbh that's not as bad as I thought. How much does the range cost?

 Not bad for annual price, mine is $300/yr
