In this episode we hear from: Luke Milroy, protester Sue Pennecuik, Member of the Legislative Assembly in Victoria Dr Siobhan O'Sullivan, University of New South Wales Bruce Wellington, Operations Manager, Gun Emporium Raf Dimachki - Administrator, Duck and Quail Hunting Facebook page Tex Moyer, Ex-lawyer Tweet @rulebookpodcast Web @ therulebook.xyz Contribute tiny amounts of money @ patreon.com/rulebookpodcast
