Mr Plod gave Mr Plod the right to make laws and the pollies rubber stamp them

That's what you call a "Police State"?!

Policy is not law. Do not bend.

Picking who we vote for this election will be critical to keeping our sport alive. All of this BS is dying for court action and seriously needs to be addressed pronto.

Well if some people (not necessarily you, I hasten to add) had been paying attention to what's been happening in New Zealand over the past few years in terms of firearm legislation instead of berating those who attempted to warn people about what was coming, we might have been in a better position now.

Issue with that is the threat of prosecution. What do you do when they tell you no?

I can't afford to go to court, can you?

Sometimes the truth comes from unpalatable sources...

Perhaps they could get on the pen and the keyboard now, and sort out the back log of import permit applications? No? Too busy dreaming up fantastical policy?

More like they put off processing permits until their policy was updated so they can now refuse them

That's what I was thinking, this change appears to loosen up the restrictions for PCP's rather than tightening them. Wonder if there are more law changes coming to that area soon.

Depends on what one deems is worth fighting for.
