All he has to do is claim he had no sinister intent. After all, that's the reason Police investigators gave for not pressing charges against HDPA and co.
He shouted at him before firing, full well knowing someone was there. Is that not bad enough?
Must have ongoing issues with poachers or such
What was the story with your bro in law?
That is a pretty quite road, I have friends that live there, and I had a call from one of the lost guys mates asking if I knew the area very well. Small world

So it's ok to send warning volleys over peoples heads. That is what I take away from this story.
Great, I'm going to start doing that. I might open a new crate of tracers to celebrate.
Fucken watch out, if you are permit pig hunting in forestry between levin and shannon I suggest you stay in the pines.
Last time I let 5 guys and their mutts walk because I didn't want a gunfight, they jumped the fence to get a mob of pigs a few hundred meters into the farm paddocks. I had superior fire position on a hill. Continuing the logical sequence of events with the new precedent of warning shots, it would also be reasonable to shoot directly at them if they return fire?
(devils advocate)
Old mate is getting charged? So there is no precedent saying it's ok. Unless he gets off.
It just seems he is getting off lightly for using a firearm against a police officer to frighten or annoy.
Only the police and the army can return fire, doesn't that tell you something?Quote:

Spent a cold wet night in the bush got out in about 30 mins at first light,
even if not charged should he be allowed to keep his licence?
Jesus - What's it all coming to??
Wish the reporters would get it right, a sawn off shot gun was seized but it was a cut down .22 rifle. any way don`t worry if the police shoot at you, they never seem to hit anything, going by all the wounding.
Police maintain the verbal policy, you are never under any circumstances, even under threat of death, allowed to use a firearm against another person.
The courts show another story. Many people have used firearms in self defense in NZ recently without being prosecuted or even liable. One gentleman in the horowhenua recently peppered three nomad gang members and their car with a shotgun. They claimed the younger brother owed money, can't pay, we want a turn on yer missus, usual story. They got buckshot instead. This was subject to media blackout because it aids the narrative, firearms are good defense against gang members. This makes Chris Cahill and the United Nations Disarmament Program sad.
If they are going to pursue one policy of never allowed guns for self defense, an even application of law is what I want. Let alone marking your territory and waving a gun around like a nut and shooting rounds over peoples heads.
I am personally advocating castle doctrine and concealed carry for NZ. This is my agenda. I dislike the inconsistent application of police policy and the law.
If that old guy was maori, he would be fucked. Look at the rotorua maori guy who may or may not have let one off at the police pinching his dope. How do you even hear a bullet sail by if you are flying a chopper? (unless it was tracers)
Castle doctrine and concealled carry in this country?
You live in a fucking fantasy word.
And your 'agenda' is fucking stupid.
Working well for the states in USA who have implemented it. You are obviously not part of the choir, nor will I preach to you systolic.
You want to carry a concealled gun? Go and live in the USA, cowboy.
We have enough problems with firearm owners being viewed as weirdos by the general public without fucking idiots like you wanting to carry a concealed gun.
Castle Doctrine, I'm sure there are plenty of dairy & pub owners that would vote for it.
Speak for yourself, but in my part of NZ firearms owners are the general public and you're about as likely to be seen as a weirdo for not having any.Quote:

And this fucking idiot calling for concealed carry is going to help either?Quote:

If you don't believe this then feel free to not defend yourself if the situation ever comes up. Good luck with that.
Look out everybody, we've got an internet bad ass here. He has more posts than me so he must be right.Quote:

Sounds like more shit reporting to me shots fired over head that probably equates to the officer heard the gun go bang .
Is that not how it works?Quote:
