"Here is the Police Mail Order Form that authorized the transfer of 2,320 rounds of ammunition to Brenton Tarrant allowing him to do what he did. Was given a licence within 5 weeks of arriving in NZ with no friends or family in the country and no vetting. Blame shouldn't fall upon the shoulders of the firearms community in NZ, but squarely at the feet of Police. The media are too busy vilifying the NZ firearms community in the hope that people don’t see the trail of blood that leads to the police's own front door."
"When will the media start asking the serious hard hitting questions? Like why did NZ police not follow the stringent policies in place for license vetting?
The process for my license was very thorough taking 5 months, including multiple people interviewed. Two house inspections. Even my references interviewed with me being forced to leave the room so I couldn’t coerce the replies.
Yet in this case the guy was in NZ 5 WEEKS. With multiple overseas issues, and was granted his license without any inspections or real life references. I believe a huge proportion to of the blame for the March attacks lay with NZ police and their inability to do their job, which is to keep the Nz populace safe by enforcing and following the law. Not failing miserably at doing so, then trying to use 250,000 law abiding Nz firearms owners as a scapegoat, a simple distraction from the true cause. It’s a joke."
And then ontop of the police being totally inept they use the event as a political tool to take those scary guns away from those lawful citizens that seem to scare them so much yet the gangs seemingly get a free pass?
I am also hearing Tarrant tried and couldnt get into the states....
