Reading some of the posts on here I must say that we come across as arrogant and unreasonable, too much emotion and exaggeration. Exactly which points are bad? Why are they bad? And think of how your responses will look to the average non firearm user.

And yeah, where is Dougie?

NZ police association needs to update its web site in that case. Thanks for the clarification.

Regarding the rest of your post, I think this is due to the increasing restrictions for no benefit over the last 15 years, and the people introducing these restrictions dont have a clear understanding of the current legislation. Its pretty poor form to recommend change to something that they havent even bothered to understand.

The behavior of nz police in regards to policy over riding law isnt acceptable. Are they (or yourself) surprised at the increase in cynicism and change in attitude to nz police as a result? If you make unreasonable demands of me and demand compromise from me, but never compromise yourself, dont expect me to smile and say everything is good.
