    The passage of time doesn’t bring the man he shot, back to life.
    Death is permanant, as should be his loss of licence.
    Dublin and Moa Hunter like this.
    He nui to ngaromanga, he iti to putanga.

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    Knowing the family and what they still go through in terms of dealing with the loss of there son.
    Also knowing a few more details on this case and the guy who shot Mark.
    There is no way he should ever get a firearms license back.

    Good to hear the other side of the story albeit about a bad circumstance.
    Your restraint is commendable.

    I guess its easy to sit in front of a laptop and play judge and jury on a public forum without knowing any details.
    Seems like he's got a few options to still get out there, without the need to have his fal reinstated. Lots of issues to consider but as a hunter, he's surely committed the worst crime there is.
