Where can I find a photo? Been searching for ages! Is it behind a paywall?

Now I'm searching missing people in S.A. Spill the beans people!
I had a look IMO - ears are different, no gap between the two middle teeth, eye color not the same.

Hmmmm. We've just seen in Bondi what this indifferent attitude to firearm ownership can result in. Of course there are many responsible firearm owners who have a legitimate use or reason for ownership of multiple firearms. But there needs to be checks and balances. We can't just rubber stamp ownership of multiple firearms because someone belongs to a gun club, or lives in a rural area. These owners need to regularly front up and show authorities that their firearms are stored safely and properly and that they are in fact being used only for their stated purpose. The purchase of hundreds (or thousands) of rounds of ammo should raise red flags. FFS these guys were on the radar of AFP for many years, as members of a group 'of interest'. But they were still allowed to own multiple firearms and obtain ammo? When was the last time they were paid a visit by authorities? When was the last audit of the gun club they belonged to? We've become complacent again.

ONE of them was on police radar and didn't own any guns, the one not on police radar owned them and was licenced and the guns were owned legally, so what could police do? It's this type of misinformation that gets repeated until it becomes fact. I do agree that people should be allowed to own very limited quantities of guns and not several copies of the same gun or multiple guns for the same use. You can only fire one at a time and can reload when empty, so why the need for more than one of a kind? Also agree about ammo quantities. If you need a thousand rounds to kill a couple of animals you can't be a very good shot, which is dangerous in itself. The whole ownership system needs changing.

That's a cop out IMO if you'll forgive the expression. Father and son. One in, both in. You can't properly 'surveill' one and not the other.
The one with the licence should still have been subject to regular checks. There were reportedly hundreds of rounds of ammo found at the scene. How did this happen? Is it legal to buy or hold such a large amount of ammo? Why are the guns and all this ammo in possession of the individual and not stored at the gun club or the venue where it is supposed to be used legally?

The circumstances that this came up in the thread are not where the gun/property owner used guns in an inappropriate manner but where the gun/property owners had their guns securely locked away and became a victim of a home invasion.
What’s your thoughts on how to stop these sick perpetrators?
Not have any registered guns, have a secret gun safe, no ammunition allowed to be kept?

We are getting off topic.
But my view is that if you need a firearm for a specific purpose and you can demonstrate are a fit and proper person, then you should be allowed to own an appropriate registered firearm and an appropriate amount of ammo for that purpose, and for that purpose only.
My view is that 'sporting shooters' should only be allowed to own a limited number of suitable firearms and ammo. They should only carry or use one at a time unless there is a specific event which needs multiple firearms to be used.
My view is that 'collectors' should only be allowed to collect firearms which have been disabled, and should never have ammunition, unless they have a specific licence and qualifications and store these firearms under very strict conditions at specific locations only, and any movement or use of such firearms should be pre approved in writing by authorities.
All firearm owners should be subject to random and regular inspections to ensure legislation is being complied with. Any breach should result in immediate cancellation of licence and confiscation of firearms.
Any purchase of ammunition must be only by a person who holds an appropriate licence. Quantities of ammo should be restricted to reasonable amounts at any one time. All ammunition must be accounted for. Regular returns and reports of ammunition used must be provided. Excessive purchases or use should also lead to licence cancellation and firearm confiscation.
Regular interviews of licences should be conducted. Anyone who cannot demonstrate they are still a fit and proper owner, and still have a genuine purpose should have their licence revoked, and firearms confiscated.

The Lamont family have indicated they will not give up hope — even as the festive season deepens the ache of his absence. The family’s only wish is for Gus to come home.
Does that suggest the Lamont family believe Gus was abducted?

It's an unattributed and undated quote. We don't know who said this or when. AFAIK there is no official formal public statement from any true family member. Only the comments from Bill Harbison made back when Gus disappeared.The Lamont family have indicated they will not give up hope — even as the festive season deepens the ache of his absence. The family’s only wish is for Gus to come home.

If Bill made that statement recently then I'm sort of angry the family can't front the media themselves.
It's insulting for Gus that his own family remain silent and hidden.
I hope something has been happening with police in the background for Gus's sake.
In the article it says,
'Authorities stress there is no evidence of foul play but have not ruled it out.'
Is that the first time that has been said?
NOT RULED IT OUT
I wonder what the process is for when the case is starting to go cold?
Pull back resources , update family only less frequently and pass over to different team ?
