MP fires back after declaring he does NOT support new firearm laws

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has announced a national buyback scheme to remove newly banned and illegal firearms from Australian gun owners, following the tragic Bondi Beach shooting that claimed 15 lives. The reforms have sparked debate, with Hunter MP Dan Repacholi, a former Olympic shooter, stating he does not support changes that unfairly target responsible firearms owners and emphasizing that firearms laws are primarily a state matter. New South Wales Premier Chris Minns has proposed further restrictions, including capping the number of firearms individuals can own and reclassifying certain weapons, but Repacholi argues these measures may not improve safety and could penalize law-abiding citizens. Meanwhile, seven men arrested in Sydney amid heightened tensions were released without charge, and the final victim of the Bondi Beach attack has been identified, as the community mourns those lost in Australia's worst massacre since 1996.
