    As we all very well know, it's not about doing stuff for a reason to do with the topic, but to justify your existence and your paycheck. Same goes for politicians, effectively Mr O'Connor is just that, and very soon to be by title no doubt.

    So they did. Anyway, so far I've read about lots of different ways to clamp down on licensed gun owners, but nothing really at all about stopping criminals getting guns. If burglary is the number 1 way criminals get firearms, registering guns, banning guns, randomly inspecting gun license holders, won't stop guns getting stolen and pointed at police officers.

    If burglary is the no one way, and I suspect it is, then it would be interesting to know how many of those burglarys are deliberately targeting the gun v just coming across them during a burglary.
    If a lot are just coming across them then increasing the a cat security standards could help the issue

    Not really, they are yet to finish defining what they consider scary (by law). We all know they want to get rid of all AR's.

    Do you think now the army has re-adopted the AR-15 ,that this has lent more passion to their fetish?
    Since the Police have had them for a good while.

    The police wank on about the road toll but NOTHING they have forced upon us ( in the name of road safety .....remember , its not revenue gathering ) has worked (The revenue gathering is raking it in)
    Why didn't Moko's killers get the max non parole period , apart from their self serving "early guilty plea's " ( even they could see there was no way out ) there was NOTHING to mitigate their guilt .
    I reckon that if , as far as performance in one's paid profession goes , if arse's got kicked and jobs got lost ( along with the sometimes ridiculous pensions ) and damages awarded when supposed experts fucked it up,it would stop overnight
    They need too. Most of us are only as good as our last fuck up. So why not for them too.

    That's a possibility. However the military has been telling the media that they are adopting the "CQB16" (I think that's it?) and I don't think they've put the dots together yet.
    But I'm sure it's just a matter of time. Probably next year when they come into service.

    I typed in my license number incorrectly once, Graeme.
    I immediately sent another message to the seller, apologizing for my 'wrong license number'.
    His response was 'TM don't care too much, so long as there is a license number attached to the question'.
    I've been 'pinged' by TM for giving my mobile number to a seller, who reacted 'correctly' too and says he's quite happy to pay TM's %age, as they guarantee he gets his money.

    Same, saw a gun closing in 5 minutes and licence was in the truck up in the shed. Google image searched a firearms licence and used that number. Sorted it with trademe the next day

    I was thinking last night, the police association wanted an enquiry into illegal firearms, they made a submission, and they've basically ignored the most common illegal firearms, shotguns and rimfires, and decided to chase the least common illegal firearms, MSSA's etc. Surely, if you thought restrictions and bans would make police officers safer, you would chase the guns most encountered. Unless you had some kind of other agenda? Hmm.
