    How to turn people into a farm animal?

    Step 1: Tell you all the dangerous of using daily stuffs like knifes, and activities like hiking, fishing and drink little bit, and smoking as well all the things they do `t like.
    Step 2: Encourage all the people strongly dislike what you do and what you say, like fishing & hunting and drive fuel drive cars
    Step 3: media coverage, only report the bad, if there is no bad thing, using the creative.
    Step 4: Bring Children into the equation
    Step 5: little fight in the HOUSE and bill past
    Step 6: rewrite the law for the reason of " for you"
    Setp 7: xxxxx
    conclusion: Communist idea!

    Guns do `t kill people, people kill people. I obtained my FAL in 2018, I do`t have a single firearm on my own, only because I have to obey the law for safe storage. JA has gone, but what she left here.....FUCK the.......Sorry. I can `t help myself on this.

    I think these anecdotes need to be reported to ACT MP Nicole McKee.

    They want registration by MYfirearms OR phone - FFS. I do not do email/onine with any government department - ever.

    Now being a deaf semi unintelligible cantankerous prick that has no time for someone who does not speak clearly enunciated English at volume - this is going to be a long winded process

    First item - Shotgun - Make Unidentified single barrel, Serial number - yes there are three on action - but they have worn off - to leave first digit showing - Yes sir - THAT is the identifying mark, no - there is no more - oh yes - the barrel is paper-thin, and the stock has dry rot.
    Yes sir, it possibly is a risk to me, but it is a fully functioning firearm, well - it does have to be registered, well - if you dont believe me, feel free to come and inspect.

    Second item - Lee Enfield, well - I can give you three numbers, and oh - it has two bolts (fucked if I know how) - shoots okay actually - it has 10 nicks in the stock, 1940s vintage, maybe the nicks are dead germans.. OK - you just wanted all identifying marks.

    After doing this 20 times, before I get to the good stuff, I am not so sure that they may not just accept my offer of a Hand written table.

    I do recall something else being mandated on the public for the benefit of the community, it was supposed to stop the spread and keep us all safe , cost the country billions , has since being proven to be next to useless and down right dangerous to some.

    Yet here we are again , another grand plan , that will keep us all safe , cost the country billions, be next to bloody useless to prevent anything , and be down right dangerous to some in our community!

    Why do I feel like life is on repeat?

    They were pushing the registration at the Field Days yesterday. I talked to an Irish man about it, he was telling me how good it was going to be and I was having trouble controlling ing my blood pressure. I didn’t quite lose it, but geeze they live in a dreamland. If your at the field days, it’s an opportunity to discuss the pros and cons with the guys implementing it

    Nah I will pass on that Maca. They don’t deserve the breathe it would take for me to tell them that just like this country’s efforts to stop global warming, how fucked up and futile the exercise will be. I still reckon you and I should have a TV show where we can discuss topical subjects and take the piss out of the numpties that deserve it.

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    @Rushy, it’s all right I did it for you. Had to clear, being Irish, he wasn’t a member of the IRA.
    Discussed the police lack of performance with Tarrant, the waste of time and money and why, he wanted my opinion on firearms in the US.
    Wanted to know if I was commenting on behalf of an organising or just myself. Discussed how the police should be enforcing, not making them, he assured me the police didn’t make the law. Could go on and on, but son and mate were waiting. Had to go to the Good George and have a beer to calm down.
    Got two safety flags out of it and didn’t give my details to enter their draw for a PLB.
    They had a Ute there with a mock up of how you shouldn’t carry firearms or ammo in a vehicle. I have to change my ways of the past 60 years

    Was a good day there for sure. Weather one out of the box. Crowds were about 50% so was easy walking the roads without being shoved into people. Bought a battery saw and some Swazi gear to replace the stuff I angle grinded in last year (my it melts easily!!) and a year's worth of leather gloves. Then went into the N.....P....booth and told them he needs to grow a pair, then the L.... P... and told them I can't wait till they are unemployed. Left feeling very virtuous and didn't have the strength to go into the firearms stand and put the worlds' wrongs to rights with them

    Apparently something like 80% of voters do vote on single issues. I tried that once. I voted for National when John Keys categorically stated that national would never enter into a coalition with the Maori Party, the rest is history. I think the lesson is that any party will sell their soul, or break election promises, in an effort to form a government.

    There's one party that "says" they get rid of this.
    They are only likely to be a minority party in government.
    Despite what they say they'll get done I don't think they'll achieve it.
    The majority party runs with a hard on crime mantra and a back down would be seen as being soft.
