how do you guys not get pinched by the cops?
in Australia a bike like that (if ridden on the road) is technically unregistered, uninsured, fail to display plates, unroadworthy and if they wanted to they could stich you up.
You can get conditional rego in some states but. Usually I see those sorts of bikes on trailers going to the trails. If they're on the road they're usually just hiding/running from the cops.
But considering America's police pursuit policy (i'm assuming you're american) that might be dangerous..

Well in my area, they just don't give a fuck. Lots of public land to legally ride on right outside of my neighborhood so I rarely, if ever, run into a cop on the way to the trail. Alamoanon and I have ridden past cops stopped for speed traps and they never followed us.

>>14181378
Which one though

>>14181429
Well in America it looks like they smash the offenders leading the pursuit physically, criminally and civilly later.
But cops in Australia are much more risk averse as a result of feedback from the Coroner. So they don't usually pursue. Especially for traffic matters.
Everyone sues the cops it seems because at least they have the money. And the courts are alot more critical of the cops for pursuing the offenders if it goes bad and a bystander gets hurt.

You're lucky. It's gotten harder and harder to find off road places around here. One of my favorite spots was near a river, but some duochebag strung wire across places on the trail and a rider got decapitated.

>>14181489
yeh from where I am it seems you can either get a trailer and drive out to the trails or get a dual sport and ride the hour to the trails. But then you need some sort of puncture repair options.

It's happening here too. One of the best riding areas is currently in limbo because some dickhead rancher whose land it runs through gated up the trail illegally, but he's funding the county government so they don't want to do anything about it. He's trying to get it closed for good.

In the U.S. cops aren't allows to use contact or violence unless you are endangering peoples lives or being excessively reckless. Otherwise they just pursue you and call in an air unit until you stop.

I normally do oil changes every second ride, if i do over 100km of single trail riding i will do it every ride. They are race bikes, the engines don't hold much oil to save weight so it gets nasty quick if you are riding them hard.

>>14181530
yeh, technically they have a similar policy here. But the reality of the situation is that they don't generally pursue unless you're endangering the public AND pursuit is the best way to get it to stop.
The only recent example I can think of is someone driving on the wrong side of the road after an armed robbery and continuing to do so after police discontinued the pursuit. Clearly he's driving that way irrespective of police involvement and the public expect police to step in.
The concern is that it might look like police caused or contributed to the subsequent fatal crash.

Suck it up princess

>>14181594
we would love to do that here. But the courts and the coroner hold a different opinion. The relevant police comissioners/ministers won't stand up to the courts and so our states have very risk averse policies.
ie. not supposed to get into a foot chase or taser someone that's been consuming paint/glue because they can die.
How the fuck is that the police's fault? ultimately it's very rare you know that before hand.
The Coroner and lawyers trying to make a buck would suggest that any aboriginal is likely to be in that category...

Well I think the Aussie policy makes more sense. In the U.S. police will escalate things till their ultimate conclusion, whatever that may be. Even if it starts as something ridiculous like an argument with no crime committed. It could escalate to the police shooting or tazing someone.

I think the main issue with American police is the lack of a "call it off" atitude wherein they don't escalate past a certain point if the initial issue was minor or inconsequential.

But the American police military industrial complex in the U.S. won't allow such things. They want maximum power and maximum authority to do what they want. And they have the prosecutors, the crime/prison lobbyists, and legislature on their side.

We have gated public dirt roads like that on cattle stations here in Australia. Its perfectly legal to go through the gates, its just expected that you close them once you have gone through, plus its courteous.

>>14181657
Yeh there is a very different attitude towards policing.
In Australia police seem to be glorified social workers. Or they give up on fighting crime and just focus on traffic enforcement because it's easy and black/white.
If you try a pursuit here you take your career in your hands.
There is alot more training here and alot more oversight. Once again, the courts (judges) are all from civil liberties brigade and background. So they have a completely different opinion. Always taking the criminals side.
America's police seem almost paramilitary. They seem like they don't get much legislation training. I'm confident they get paid less and have shorter training/supervision phases.

Kek. I own 2 pistols and 3 rifles.
In fact I am more proficient in shooting a handgun than the majority of the australian police force.
They only shoot once a year and thats just to pass the handgun test.

Having a pistol licence means I need to shoot at least 6 times a year and compete in 1 comp a year.

272 Self-defence against provoked assault

(1) When a person has unlawfully assaulted another or has provoked an assault from another, and that other assaults the person with such violence as to cause reasonable apprehension of death or grievous bodily harm, and to induce the person to believe, on reasonable grounds, that it is necessary for the person's preservation from death or grievous bodily harm to use force in self-defence, the person is not criminally responsible for using any such force as is reasonably necessary for such preservation, although such force may cause death or grievous bodily harm.

I'm not any expert, I don't live in America. But I did watch a documentary taking place in some American state and they legally purchase a gun in a carpark, like off Craigslist and they meet the guy and hand over cash.

You should need a licence to possess a firearm.

>>14181758
That's worded much more conservatively than what we have in the U.S

This is one of the most liberal gun hating states in the country, California:

>§ Penal Code 198.5
>"Any person using force intended or likely to cause death or great bodily injury within his or her residence shall be presumed to have held a reasonable fear of imminent peril of death or great bodily injury to self, family, or a member of the household when that force is used against another person, not a member of the family or household, who unlawfully and forcibly enters or has unlawfully and forcibly entered the residence and the person using the force knew or had reason to believe that an unlawful and forcible entry occurred."

Basically, if someone who you don't know is in your house or is forcing their way into your house, you have the right to kill them where they stand. That's American Castle Doctrine.

I like the American version better.

>>14181779
you think criminals buy guns at public shows?
also at least here in WA all the gun shows are run by clubs which you need to be a member of to buy a gun at and to be a member you need to pass a background check anyways.
any fuckwad can buy a car and run people down without a license check.
laws dont stop criminals

>>14181765
The ability to buy guns at gun shows or in person privately without background checks in some states is real. It's not a "loophole". It is an explicit allowance to allow the sale of guns without burdening private citizens with excessive regulation.

Not really. As you need a reason for owning each handgun. So you need to have different caliber pistols and then claim they are for diferent competitions.

I was thinking about selling my pistols and just letting my H licence expire. Its too much fucking around. Plus the cops can just rick up to my house and demand to see my pistols and inspect the gun safe

>>14181809
No, possession of a firearm is a constitutionally guaranteed right. Driving a car is not.

Licensing gun owners in order to posses guns is a power not given to the government. The government has no authority to do so.

>>14181810
You're right, Our trespassing defence only extends to using bodily harm (bruises?) to evict a trespasser.
In that scenario you can usually identify the intruder and confirm they're not a 10 year old or something innocent.
Then if the situation escalates you have that protection, if they present a threat of grevious bodily harm or death you can reply in kind.
I think it's more specific but the protection is still there.
The only difference is we don't have easy access to guns. They have to be safely stored when not in use. Ammunition seperate.

Because statistically the amount of firearms bought through the so called "loophole" that are used by prohibited persons is so small that there is no problem.

The millions of $$$ used to promote and lobby for the closing of the "loophole" could be used a to much much much greater benefit getting the fucking ATF and local prosecutors to actually pursue those who violate existing gunlaws.

>>14181843
you can grantee a right and still provide reasonable restriction.
If everyone can have guns, provided they pass a 2 day course and have some checks done and a bit of a waiting period pass, I don't see how any rights are being infringed.
You can still have the guns at the end of the day.
We still have guns here.
Similarily in America that right to possess guns CAN be infringed if you're a felon. So there your government accepts some infringment because you don't want felons having guns.

>you can grantee a right and still provide reasonable restriction.
The law of the constitution explicitly states that the right "shall not be infringed" by the government.

>f everyone can have guns, provided they pass a 2 day course and have some checks done and a bit of a waiting period pass, I don't see how any rights are being infringed.
Because if someone doesn't pass said requirements their rights WILL be infringed. And that infringement is beyond the authority of the government.

>You can still have the guns at the end of the day.
Unless you don't jump through the necessary hoops, then your rights are infringed. That's the part that's illegal.

>Similarly in America that right to possess guns CAN be infringed if you're a felon. So there your government accepts some infringement because you don't want felons having guns.
Current infringement of rights doesn't qualify further infringement. There is legal battles in the U.S. right now over the rights of felons and those who have been illegally disarmed.

>>14181877
>the constitution can be amended. and no one is saying anything about

I never said it couldn't be. Good luck with that constitutional amendment removing one of america's core rights. It would never even make it to state ratification, even if you could get it through congress.

>any cop can look up your drivers license from any police cruiser to verify the owner of the vehicle, why can't you do that with gun ownership.
Because we have constitutionally protected rights and natural rights. The right to privacy being one of them.

I don't want to government to have the private data on my private firearms so they can look up my private residence whenever they want.

>no education is required to wield or purchase a weapon. why?
Because that is an infringement and an authority that the government DOES NOT HAVE. The government cannot legally do something that is beyond their outlined authority. The ultimate outline of that authority being the Constitution.

>it is as dangerous as a car
Doesn't matter.

>why not teach people proper ownership of this.
People are free to seek and learn by their own free will. Not by any government mandate.

>>14181921
>tend to be the people who would need them the most
no one NEEDS a gun. they might want a gun, but you don't need a gun. further, you have to pay for identification, registration for your gun, taxes and everything else you do. it's not like you buy a gun (which you have to pay for, it isn't guaranteed and given to you as a natural right) and that is that.

1) Creates pay barrier to exercised an enumerated Right.

2)Creates a government monopoly and bureaucracy as to whom can teach the classes which means you have politicians who know fuckall about firearms and their safety dictating their proper usages and giving their cronies new job openings.

3)Yay, lets give political fuckheads even more control of what we can and can't do!

Lets be honest. If you are not a racial minority engaged in illegal activities and from a low socio-economic background or if you're not suicidal, THERE IS NO 'GUN PROBLEM'.

tl;dr: Don't be poor, black, or suicidal and guns are A'ok!

>>14181901
Driving a car on a public road is not the same as private ownership of a firearm.

One is a constitutionally protected right. The other isn't.

Your attempts to draw parallels between are ill informed.

The government doesn't have the authority do with firearms what they do with vehicles. Plain and simple.

>>14181966

>no one NEEDS a gun. they might want a gun, but you don't need a gun.
Wanting or needing a gun is of no consequence. It doesn't matter if you think I need it or not. I have the RIGHT to have it. And I have the RIGHT to use it to defend myself against person, government, or foreign invader..

>further, you have to pay for identification, registration for your gun, taxes and everything else you do.
You don't have to pay for any of that necessarily to buy a gun.

>t's not like you buy a gun (which you have to pay for, it isn't guaranteed and given to you as a natural right) and that is that.
The right to life and to feed yourself is a natural right, but you are not just given food. That's not how rights work.

The right to own a firearm and protect yourself is a right. That means if you so choose you have the right to go and buy (or make) said firearm for that purpose.

The fact that mass shootings happen doesn't mean they are a huge problem.

They are sensationalized by the media to the extreme but realistically amount to an insignificant amount of deaths.

Mass shootings are not the problem they are made out to be. Significantly more people die from fistfights in a month than people die from "mass shootings" in a year.

>>14182007
>but it didnt work, it had no measurable effect on overall violent crime

I was referring to the buyback scheme and how it removed those guns, of course non gun related crime rose as now those previous crimes were not committed with guns, instead they used knifes/bats/other objects as weapons.

>>14182025
>In a world with so many people why would it matter if just a few die from unfit people getting guns

Statistically insignificant. Tragic, horrendous, terrible. But in the grand scheme of things insignificant.

KKK, I'm not going to mock you and call you ignorant about the 2a/anti-2a issue. Just do this: Look up the # of firearm homicides in the USA vs # of firearms OWNED. Now look at the # of motorcycle deaths vs # of motorcycles in the USA. Now give some heavy thought as to if the same people who are trying to kill the 2nd amendment wouldn't be some of the same people who would eventually try in install Aussie/euro regulations on motorcycles or outright banning them.

Guns kill people

>>14182043
That's an unfit analogy. Gun regulations are to protect bystanders from being hurt by the people who buy guns. Any regulations on motorcycles would merely protect the riders from themselves.

>>14182007
>but it didnt work, it had no measurable effect on overall violent crime

This.

The same thing happened with the Federal Assault Weapons Ban in the U.S.
In the 1990's "scary" and "dangerous" "assault weapons" were banned. It had no appreciable impact on the already steady downturn of violent crime.
Then in the 2000's when the FAWB expired, there was no uptick or appreciable increase in violent crime.

In fact now, there are more "assault weapons" in American circulation than ever and violent crime is STILL going down.

Gun grabbers don't like this fact though and choose to ignore it.

>>14182041
Because it is a fucking RIGHT. The right to defend yourself (and the means to do so) is a fundamental natural right.

You don't just disregard rights all willy nilly, even if peoples lives are lost. Entire wars have been fought and millions of lives have been lost in the protection of mans rights and ability to live free.

i'm sorry that you're such a ckuck that you are willing to just abandon your own rights. But everyone is not so worthless.

Seriously though,
If you don't like guns then good for you. You don't have to like them, you don't have to buy/use/learn-about them. Just leave those of us who do like them the hell alone. You put yourself through more danger walking out the door on an icy morning, taking a bath, or RIDING YOUR FUCKING MOTORCYCLE then you will ever statistically face from firearms unless you are a soldier, cop, or gangbanger.

>http://www.news.com.au/national/is-australia-staring-down-the-barrel-of-a-gun-crisis/story-fncynjr2-1226690018325
The total firearms death rate in 1995 - the year before the massacre and the laws introduced - was 2.6 per 100,000 people. The total firearms murder rate that year was 0.3/100,000. From 1980-1995, Australian firearms deaths dropped from 4.9/100,000-2.6/100,000 without the implementation of firearms laws. This is a rate of decline that has remained fairly constant; Looking at 1996-2014, in which the rate has dropped from 2.6-0.86, it shows that the decline has been slower in a longer period of time since the law’s passing. Likewise, homicides declined more quickly in the 15 years prior to the firearms laws (0.8-0.3) than in the 18 years since it (0.3-0.1). This just indicates that firearms deaths haven’t been noticeably affected by the legislation

>>14182141
>>life and safety isn't a right
Safety is not a right. The ability to defend yourself is. Your safety is YOUR responsibility, not the governments.

Life is a right, thus it cannot be infringed by the government. Meaning the government cannot just come and take your life. But life is not and cannot be guaranteed by the government either. The right to life does not mean the government makes a magic safety bubble around you making sure no harm ever comes to you.
