The point that Penn always tries to make is that the government has no business regulating individual choices. Gun ownership is another individual choice that is highly debatable due to the effects it could have on other people.
My opinion is that this individual choice must be protected, if for no other reason than to keep the individuals power above that of the governments. Governments who want to limit individual rights first do so by taking away the power of the individual to physically defend themselves. It's a right that I would go so far as to protect with force.
Australia's rights are more limited than the U.S. and if you ever needed to defend more precious rights, such as freedom of speech, you would have no means to do so.
