There's a surprise.

Not impressed at all!
All power to mr tipples prosecution then
The thing was done yo the "interest of the public", please what public other than "media havoc"???
I (personally) don't have any interest in how to "bend" the law, actually, I think I could figure out it myself without any alarm reminding that law abiding citizens and gun owners don't need this kind of behaviour to purchase a gun.
Just my 0.02$c
There was no bending involved, she broke the law.
Poor decision on their behalf.
Don't bother going to the cops to sign your form, just fill that part in yourself, they won't charge you anyway.
/yawn
Yeh she was OK because she had no sinister purpose whereas us licensed (ie legit) firearm owners/purchasers must all therefore harbour sinister purposes obviously. I am not stressed by the decision as I had already decided (and posted my opinion) way back at the start of this thread that nothing would come of her actions. I did my huffing and puffing way back then. Huffing and puffing again is pointless as it only makes their victory more galling.
Jeez Wayne!!! How wrong can someone be??? I should have relied on my instincts which said that certain people would put the"ARM" on the police NOT to proceed. Bugger me & I thought that our police force was NOT subjected to political interference??? Silly me.:pissed off:
Typical!
I wonder if the police will let the new 2016 Arms Amendment bill slide too?? Uhh I don't think so.
Ya know, I might take advantage of these "journalistic privileges" myself. I've got my FAL but no E endorsement so I'll go buy a stack of 30 round mags and the compatible weapon they go with just to expose the "loopholes" all for the public interest of course.
I wonder how well that'll will go down. I will report back once I've handed in my illegal MSSA to the police so we can crack down on the outrageous gun laws in this country.
A slap in the face for all NZFAL holders!
i have a close contact high up in TV#mediaworks empire ,to whom i made my own and a few others sentiments very plain-the response "gets ratings though ,thats our gold".ratings so fucking beloved of MSM-the social concern utterances pure TV3 PR dept bullshit,
Bet me bottom dollar lil ol Heifer DPA& Duncy Garner are crackin the champers with associated newsroom cretins having put one up the man!
warning my arse -that'll just go in the boardroom trophy cabinet.
Soooo-where can we obtain a copy of the grounds for this decision ,so when some proper license holder "offends"the blue brigade ,he can produce it as part of his defence
the DUPLESSIS ALLEN precedent shall we call it.
lastly but more sinister is the thought that sooner or later some fucktard out there may well attempt to emulate these two and sadly suceed,again claiming but they did it and got off so thought Id try it!
Humans -the most intelligent of all the species-cases like this do give me grave doubts!
I cannot begin to say how fucking ridiculous that decision is. Frankly I despair for what has become of this country in the hands of overly politically corrected dickheads and do gooders. We may as well change the flag now because the current one stood for a far better country and a far better sense of justice than this country reflects today.
So, what would a prosecution have actually achieved for gun owners? Someone please explain?
