    Hard to tell if that’s a pisstake or not. Not a semi auto owner at the moment (was in the past) it guts me a little to hear and see other LFAOs seemingly unaffected concern that” my firearm is not affected so I don’t care..”. Guess what ...they want them all.. eventually. There’ll be nobody left to help you fight to keep yours , cos everyone else has lost theirs and THEY won’t care. No hate just a observation.

    I don't particularly want to get drawn in to a protracted debate but I am interested in where the assertions that "they" are coming for all firearms has arisen. There has been no mention that I'm aware of that indicates an intention to outlaw simple bolt action hunting rifles. There has been a reaction to a tragedy caused by some nutjob with a semi-auto and hi capacity magazines - The government has responded by (rightly or wrongly. Too fast, too broad, too ill-considered?) banning semi-autos and high capacity mags. They have also taken some steps to try and impact hate-speech and race/ethnicity/religion based violence - I have seen lots of comments about how we will be stripped of all of our rights and freedoms but am yet to hear a reasonable explanation of how or why...

    Hey dude. I’m a adult. You don’t need to drag me down to your level. I don’t need to call you a name. I respect your opinion/view.

    It’s my view that eventually they’re gonna want way more restrictions on firearms leading to nobody having any.

    They have no idea how many billions they would be forking out for pest control. Only so many places you can use 1080 without killing stock.

    I don't think the bucktoothed mole worries about things like by-kill or even money.
    The only thing we can do is disrupt her agenda as much as we can. Expose her as the try hard idealist she really is. Fuck up her UN ambitions so she becomes a laughing stock.

    Maybe so. Thing is (my opinion/view) is they don’t care.

    Hi @Dorkus, Have a look at the 'comrade Jacinda' youtube clip and then read up on the same groups manifesto regarding 'small arms'.
    I expect things to settle and I expect at some point we will have a change of Government that will put a stop to the firearms restrictions / controls. But until then Tarrant has given the anti-firearms brigade a once in a lifetime opportunity and they will make the most of it whilst Labour is in power. We have a Police force that favours these controls too. The next moves will be choking restrictions on ammo and reloading components. Then it would be very simple to also restrict or place impediments in the way of hunting on DOC estate. The only thing we have in our favour is the free pest control we provide and 1080 negates the need for that, so during the term of the current govt we are in for a 'butt fucking'

    Well one only needs to look to Australia for the likely future. They have banned and reclassified things on the way they look like or perceived rapid fire ability. And there's lots of expensive procedures and permits and things that make life difficult.

    So while "they" may not take the bolt actions or single shots "they" can make life difficult.

    Also keep in mind that our hunting cartridges are much more powerful than a 223 ever will be.

    As for the how or why. They'll make laws and they seriously believe some of the things they spout. Ideology sometimes trumps facts.
