Thread: New gun security laws

It makes no sense that we as licensed firearm owners, who have our characters more thoroughly scrutinised than any member of civil society, are demonised so much by the media and the police.

I read an old NZ Herald article from 2006 which stated that firearm related crime accounts for less than 1.3% of crimes committed annually. For a country that has such a low rate of firearm crime, one can only surmise that there are ulterior motives for the NZP's latest incentive.

It's all about control, maintaining it and expanding it where possible.
