Cadet;
Have been keeping your country in my thoughts & prayers. I am a member of another board (non gun related) which has several members from Australia. One of them from the Melbourne area has been keeping us informed of conditions there. I understand the entire area has now been declared a "Crime Scene" as it is thought the fires were intentionally set. I am afraid the punishment I would find suitable for one commiting such an act would be considered "Cruel & Unusual" by our constitution.
