Thread: Positive interaction with NZ police (MSSA build)

There is no positive interaction with the police in this day and age. The public’s most common dealing with police is a demand for money through the mail, after being photographed on the highway or being stopped on said highway by the modern day highwayman, just because they want to.
Should you have the misfortune to be burgled, your complaint will be treated as unimportant and should the thief be apprehended do not expect the return of your goods or any restitution. Having the correct insurance cover will be more meaningful to you than expecting capture and return of your property by police.
A prevalent attitude among the current blue gang is that the public are all criminals, but most haven’t been caught yet.
As a firearms owner you are seen as a possible threat in any dealings with police be it a traffic stop or a home visit.
The provisions of the arms act are used by police to employ their time persecuting the most law abiding section of society, licenced firearms owners.
When one must deal with them, it is generally asking for permission to buy, travel, or import something you want in regards to firearms. Here they also abuse their statutory power by making shit up. Over the years police have demanded the surrender of private property in return for permits, photographed firearms and registered firearms while conducting nationwide security examinations for which they have no legislative excuse.
NZ police have a long established, and well earned reputation for creating evidence and perjury and I would expect that most people would treat them as they would, any other gang member, Avoid if at all possible.
Until NZ police are completely purged, and a new force dedicated to the original principles of Robert Peel replaces the trash we now have, I don’t expect to see any change in the current situation.

Sir Robert Peel's
Principles of Law Enforcement
1829
1. The basic mission for which police exist is to prevent crime and disorder as an
alternative to the repression of crime and disorder by military force and severity of
legal punishment.
2. The ability of the police to perform their duties is dependent upon public approval of
police existence, actions, behavior and the ability of the police to secure and maintain public respect.
3. The police must secure the willing cooperation of the public in voluntary observance
of the law to be able to secure and maintain public respect.
4. The degree of cooperation of the public that can be secured diminishes,
proportionately, to the necessity for the use of physical force and compulsion in
achieving police objectives.
5. The police seek and preserve public favour, not by catering to public opinion, but by
constantly demonstrating absolutely impartial service to the law, in complete
independence of policy, and without regard to the justice or injustice of the substance
of individual laws; by ready offering of individual service and friendship to all
members of society without regard to their race or social standing, by ready exercise
of courtesy and friendly good humour; and by ready offering of individual sacrifice in
protecting and preserving life.
6. The police should use physical force to the extent necessary to secure observance of
the law or to restore order only when the exercise of persuasion, advice and warning
is found to be insufficient to achieve police objectives; and police should use only the
minimum degree of physical force which is necessary on any particular occasion for
achieving a police objective.
7. The police at all times should maintain a relationship with the public that gives
reality to the historic tradition that the police are the public and the public are the
police; the police are the only members of the public who are paid to give full-time
attention to duties which are incumbent on every citizen in the intent of the
community welfare.
8. The police should always direct their actions toward their functions and never appear
to usurp the powers of the judiciary by avenging individuals or the state, or
authoritatively judging guilt or punishing the guilty.
9. The test of police efficiency is the absence of crime and disorder, not the visible
evidence of police action in dealing with them.
