Why not do this NOW. It is an absolutely artificial distinction. The police are making the distinction up themselves! I mean what difference does it make at the end of the day. How very hypocritical of them to ask for a "more evidence based approach" when they're not using any evidence to show any efficacy behind this bill?Quote:
Furthermore ACT believes that the distinction between military style semi-automatic firearms and non-military style semi-automatic firearms is artificial. We would welcome any future opportunity to review that distinction with a view to implementing a more evidence based approach to this part of the Arms Act.
No one is that stupid. They have to be pushing their own agenda. But that's not a surprise is it?
I'm going to stop reading this for tonight or it's just going to ruin
1. They have some kind of bizarre agenda
2. We told them how fucked everything was. Guys in my club stood before them and told them. Apparently they were totally clueless, their mind was made up before the submissions were even made, they were just going through the motions to make it seem democratic. "We're doing this because fuck you" basically.
Sigh... yeah it does seem that way. Neither of those surprise me. Just going through the motions to pretend to be democratic. You could see that when they made excuses about not involving citizens, and not creating an firearms advisory board because it's "infeasible" (I think they mean inconvenient for them)/Quote:

I've stopped worrying. Nothing we can really do but lodge judicial reviews where applicable.
I think I have to take a leaf out of your book Beavis :) Between this and all the US based shenanigans I've been getting stressed out.Quote:

Pull up. Did you forget? This is politicians. They are that stupid.Quote:

US gunshops are low on 10+ mags, .223 ammo, reloading and any gun on the list, its farcial, no lives will be saved. I expect it will be the same here.Quote:

Meanwhile the pollies will want to be seen to looking after the clueless voters from those nasty gun toting animal killers so of course it will pass.
take care!
This is the final version that has been submitted for assent.
