Thread: we are up against stupidity

To be fair - the people that whinge and bitch the most about guns being dangerous and needing to be banned, are generally the same people who bitch and moan about the state of the public estate and the lack of conservation efforts.

Those same people don't realise that the work they've done to ban guns means the work they are doing to try to improve forest health and species conservation is going backwards.

I've had a couple of conversations with a few people that 'hate all things guns' and once you explain the way the system is set up in NZ and correct the bullshit being spouted by a lot of (urban) journalists they come around to the realisation that not all is as they have been led to believe. The problem is the (possibly intentional as my opinion) damage being done to conservation outcomes to justify a business outcome, its just that the resourcing no longer exists to do the job!
