Not really. It doesn't affect me directly and I don't spend too much time worrying about things that don't affect me. It's bad for my ulcer.

If it happens to someone, then they can make a complaint to the PCA if they want. Not my concern.

Your tickets for 80 kmh in a 100 kmh zone are going to be beautiful.

You sound like the type of firearm user that would be happy to throw every member of every other shooting discipline but yours under the bus to save yourself.

To spin it the other way, would you care about people refusing to provide serial numbers if it was a legal requirement?


You continue to only answer the part of questions that suit you, are you a politician? So I'll ask again more plainly - as a general principle, do you think its ok for the police to act outside the law in acquiring information about law abiding citizens? If yes, do you think its ok for them to act outside the law in other ways as well?

Where have I thrown any other member of any other shooting discipline under a bus to save myself.

Just because I don't need a Kalashnikov to shoot a deer or a goat doesn't mean I want to stop you using one if you want (I will still snigger though).

No. Again it wouldn't concern me. Worrying about shit like that is bad for my ulcer and blood pressure.

But would you care if the Police wanted to stop someone owning/using a 'Kalashnikov' for hunting or any other lawful purpose? (I'm assuming by 'Kalashnikov', you mean an a-cat semi-auto or MSSA from the AK family, and not the restricted full auto type)

If you don't care, then my statement stands, because it appears you are happy to sit by as the police make moves against other firearms users, outside what is permitted by law. Indifference = under-the-bus throwing.

If you DO care, then where do you draw the line on what unlawful actions by police, with regard to firearms users, are OK, and which are not?

Trolling online is bad for blood pressure and ulcers - doesn't seem you have an issue with trolling though...

How do you think we should respond to your posting about shooting body armour?

Nah but the one does lol.

Righto then well this is what happens when you.A) talk about wanting to get off a murder charge, B) appear to have no problem with how police act herby getting on your knees, opening wide and saying ;"please give me more" pertaining to a Police state.


That really worries me ya know.

I think most people reading this site would understand that my comments about serial numbers and getting off murder charges were a topical reference to Winders getting done for murder, in part from the cops having his serial numbers.

It worries me that people could read it any other way. Unless they have the reading level of a six year old.

Ahh, politician-class backtracking.
