Australia: Petition for Conceal Carry to protect against 'criminals and terrorists' .

Firearms Owners United of Queensland Australia have an petition at Change.org to allow Australians to carry concealed for defense purposes. They feel that it would protect them against 'criminals and terrorists'.

While they have an uphill battle in Australia to get concealed carry for the masses, maybe this petition can help open the doors to dialog and eventually can lead to reform. Lets wish them luck.

"The petition which has 2851 supporters backs both concealed carry and “self defence with firearms “ and tells petitioners “we now live in a world where relying on police is not just enough anymore”.

Queensland-based gun owner Ryan Kropp, who lists himself as CEO of Fishing and Hunting Australia, in a blog acknowledged his petition has divided Australians but explains how being armed with a concealed weapon could prevent a tragedy."
