Needless to say, it\u2019s easier for us to orchestrate a full-throated resistance to those who seek to render us soft targets.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For many others around the globe though, they\u2019re not so lucky.&nbsp; In fact, many foreign objectors to systematic civil disarmament are forced to take their battle underground \u2014 literally. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Case in point, David Letizia, an Australian boxing promoter and former professional fighter. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Letizia, aka the \u201cIce Man,\u201d was arrested last year after police discovered his underground bunker and shooting range in the Perth Hills suburb of High Wycombe in Western Australia.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/stop-using-australia-to-justify-banning-so-called-assault-weapons\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"australian-authorities-hysterical-over-discovery-of-underground-bunker-containing-firearms\" title=\"Australian Authorities Hysterical Over Discovery of Underground Gun Bunker\">Stop Using Australia to Justify Banning So-Called \u2018Assault Weapons\u2019<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It appears someone ratted Letizia out to the police.&nbsp; When the authorities came to investigate, they discovered his bunker, which was concealed by a trap door that had an inconspicuous sofa on top of it.  (It&#8217;s pretty cool, check out the video above). &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Police then raided the bunker and seized all of Letizia\u2019s firearms and ammunition.&nbsp; It&#8217;s worth pointing out that Letizia was a licensed firearm owner and most of his firearms were registered uder the law.  He was not a hardened criminal or street thug.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The major offense the &#8220;Ice Man&#8221; committed, evidently, was securing the guns improperly and failing to tell the city council about the construction plans for the bunker.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Western Australian Police Force recently seized an arsenal of very high-powered firearms being incorrectly stored in a secret underground bunker, hidden beneath a storage unit in suburban Perth,\u201d said WA Police Minister Paul Papalia. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cUnbelievably, the worst offense this individual has allegedly committed is failing to apply to the local council for approval to build the bunker and underground shooting range,&#8221; continued Papalia, lamenting the state&#8217;s lax gun laws with respect to ownership of long-range rifles.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/avatar-director-james-cameron-regrets-gunplay-in-past-films-happy-to-live-in-new-zealand-where-assault-weapons-are-banned\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"australian-authorities-hysterical-over-discovery-of-underground-bunker-containing-firearms\" title=\"Australian Authorities Hysterical Over Discovery of Underground Gun Bunker\">\u2018Avatar\u2019 Director James Cameron Regrets Gunplay in Past Films, Happy to Live in New Zealand Where \u2018Assault Weapons\u2019 Are Banned&nbsp;<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis person was a licensed firearms owner. Most of the weapons down there were licensed,&#8221; observed the minister.  &#8220;Why he needed that many high-powered rifles in a secret underground shooting range is beyond me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the wake of this incident, Western Australian authorities plan to rewrite the state&#8217;s gun laws later this year.

It will be modernised, just about every element of firearms ownership and use will be addressed.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr. Letizia&#8217;s firearms license was revoked and he was fined $3,200 as a result of the discovery.  He will need to appear before the city council later this year to answer for building a bunker without seeking permission first.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rest of WA&#8217;s citizens will be forced to turn over their soon-to-be illegal firearms or else face prosecution.
