ZERO BALANCE: We look at worrying news that Kate’s WA gun law fundraiser seems empty

from Gun News Australia: the latest news for Aussie shooters · host Politics Reloaded - real news for Aussie shooters

IN THIS EPISODE, we look at the troubling advice from GoFundMe that the donations it received to help WA shooters fight the new gun laws in court, seem to have been withdrawn by the ‘beneficiary’, who can only be Kate Fantinel.  That’s $178k worth of missing money – consisting of donations up to $3,000! This is a significant concern, because it means shooters of WA will not only not see any legal action taken for them, but the money they donated in good faith seems to have disappeared forever. We wrote to Kate to ask her what happened to the money and even invited her onto our program. However, no response has been received.  That’s why we’re worried that the money might have disappeared forever.  If we’re wrong, then all Kate needs to do is explain what’s happened. We also explain that while the next WA state election is three years away, there is still hope for shooters who are willing to roll their sleeves up and get behind organisations like ours who in the long haul. Yes, it’s a long-term fight, but it’s one we’re here for. -------------------------------------------------------------- GET EARLY RELEASES!
