I may be misunderstanding what it is you're driving at - I've had a few drinks tonight - but I'd like to point out anyway that in many non-free societies, the internet has become the de facto voice of freedom. Ways have been found in the last few years so that some countries (China, in particular), are now able to surpress this source of truth and freedom from their people, but I don't think Australia does this.

So, I'd think that an Australian newspaper editorial, or newspaper feature article about guns and gunowners, that publized the internet address of, and the free exchange of ideas to be found in this forum (and other similar forums) might be one of the best ways to introduce thinking Australians to the pro side of the gun argument (in America, anyway), and to keep them abreast of it.
