The firearm thread

[jasonu]

Yeah so when you attempted to insinuate it was all the Labours Leader fault that the gun laws in NZ were changed.

it was because you never knew your local MP along with every other National and NZ first and green party Mp voted for the law change?
Or when you said it was only the criminals that had illegal guns you were not aware that this was always the case?

Or where you just talking crap hoping no one would notice you where spreading a entirely false narrative?
Hint ....You wouldn't have been compared to the "taupo tosser" if it wasn't for the attempt of spreading of the false narrative.
Maybe if it was a mater closer to the inner Mongolian horse riders association Simon may have convinced the National party to vote differently.
Maybe you could donate 125K to the National party and become an MP.

I see you are still a total dick head.

Actually ... I know of licensed gun owners that were in possession of illegal weaponry ... before any amendments to legislation. Literally NOTHING has changed in this respect. Are they criminals ... or do you need to be sentenced in a court of law first ???

I remember when records of weapon serial numbers were recorded with your firearms license. It was changed to the individual firearms owners not needing permits to acquire more weapons. and a Gun Register was deemed unworkable and impossible to maintain correctly. With the (intended ??) introduction of a Gun register (any word how that is going ... anybody ??) keeping an accurate record of an individuals weapons in their possession (or accessible to them) is now all but impossible.

In essence ... the NZ Gun laws are now pretty much based on an honesty system. And the $$$ value on the (now) illegal one's just went up.

Although the "Christchurch Shooting" culprit WAS licensed ... the proper procedure's ... and checks ... were not made by the appropriate authorities before his license was approved. Funny that not much about THAT was ever said. AND ... we will have the SAME people running the system. What really has changed ??? The SAME firearms (Minus a few thousand surplus to owners requirements that in many cases were paid more than they cost) ... are still in use/possession by/of people that (by law) shouldn't be.

The same might be said about you ... pot calling the kettle black maybe ...

Make a poll up (I haven't seen one for a while) and ask ...

I've got the span of attention of a goldfish, so assume that if your post was over thirty words I didn't read it.
The long & short of it is that the govt spent a couple of hundred million on a gun buyback so as to keep us safe, yet villains are still shooting each other & the police willy nilly.
Clearly it was a successful campaign.

It's you who shlould be doing some self refledxtion in that regard. You have mainly posted twaddle since I returned about three months ago. Sidecar Bob on the other hand has been quite helpful.

I still think 'berg & I would get on great in person.
In fact I tried to catch up with him last week when I was passing through that part of the country.
Circumstances were against us, but I'm confident it would have been a cracking day, politics avoided.

I'm old. That's my excuse.

The buy-back scheme was very successful. I personally know of six gun owners that were paid a great deal more that they originally paid for them. A few even paid (not much) gun repairer's to have some not working (and not complete) to get them into a condition they might work. Thus a better price at buy-back time.

I was over with Grumph a few days later he missed you as well. Kept him up well past his bedtime and even gave him some rain.
Next time you are on tour i will arrange a decent stopover with the local highlights

I'm sure that's the case, especially when in disscussion of a common interest.

He and Laava are completely useless at trolling fwiw.

Time wasn't my own. I was charging around with a Merc van full of suitcases trying to keep up with a bunch of guys that just wanted to ride motorcycles from daylight until dark.
Better than actual real work though.

That may or may not be true. It can almost certainly be applied to you. The difference between us is I don't fill half a page with inane dribble and 8 stupid cartoons like you do.

That wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.

Fantastic, and why did you feel the need to point that out specifically?
I was running cars at Taupo circuit on Tuesday, but didn't feel the slightest urge to look you up.

No surprises there ... which doesn't surprise me.

I bet you can't surprise me with a witty reply ...
