Shooter breaks vow to dead man's mum - national | Stuff.co.nz

Yeh I saw that on the news last night. I don't reckon there is any way in hell that he will get his firearms license restored. If the Police don't opposed that then it would make a mockery of the licensing process.

My thoughts exactly , I'm not sure but is this the cocksucker that shot the poor bloke at like 16 mts then did a runner ( later to say he was going for help ) ?

Personally I think 4 months improsonment is a joke. It hardly puts any fear up us (hunters) about being punished severely for not following the firearm rules does it.
And to allow someone that has clearly not followed said rules to be back amongst the ones that do and other wildlife users would shameless.

Police have already said he won't be getting it, according to the news last night.

Read it this morning. Absolutely dumbfounded...

The problem is that he probably is already out there hunting with a mate's firearm.

When will we learn ?

Question for any members of the Welly Deerstalkers.

Has Dummer's membership been suspended or is he still around ?

U think he's more or less dangerous to have out hunting now? U know than someone who perhaps thinks that it can never happen to him?

I don't support him, but its less clear to me that his choices should be made by other people.

No way should he be allowed near a firearm again......we all know the 7 'commandments' and he has broken no1 in my book, after taking someones life, it should be written into the law, that he is never allowed a FAL again....just my 2c

And as for @7mmwsm question, i would not (just my opinion again) compare driving to shooting, if someone is found guilty of reckless driving causing death, they should also never be allowed behind a wheel again!!!!!!

I think he'd probably be safer having killed someone once he would be making damn sure it wouldn't happen again. imo

But then if he was to get his fal back then it's not very fair in the sense he has killed someone and gets to go back to doing what he loves so I think no for that reason. Not because he would shoot someone again.

This is the worst thing possible, and I hope Chis Drummer reads this.
He displays a complete lack of self awareness and shouldn’t be allowed near a rifle again. Not even a toy one.
I know him, and he knows me. Others on here will too. I was once on a hunting trip with him, and hunted with him for a day.
He was a disaster waiting to happen.

What he had to say at the inquest was disgraceful.

He has proven he cannot make good ones for himself

Thanks Tahr, your judgement on this, especially as you know the bloke is something we should all take note of, as I trust your opinion.

Agreed. He has displayed random behaviour in more than one facet of his life. It's mainly been kept below the horizon since the shooting. Now though, on the back of the inquest and on what others' know about him, he should be protected from himself.

This does does not make him a bad man, nor should it vindictive. It's a simple thing really; bar him from firearms to keep him safe, others safe, and to preserve the reputation of shooting sports.

Man you gotta feel for the parents....1st they lose their son, then the guy who caused it only serves 4 months (pathetic in my opinion) and now he's saying I want my licence back so I can hunt again.....they probably going to inquest for some closure and get kicked in the guts instead!
