Title: New Zealand now understands gun control
Post by: Bricktop on March 18, 2019, 08:35:27 PM
It took 50 deaths, but the penny dropped.



New Zealand's pathetically weak and inefficient gun laws facilitated a mass murder, just as they did in the US.



However, unlike the US, the NZ government has accepted that they must make drastic and immediate changes to the administration of firearm ownership in their nation.



And who do they look to for guidance and advice?

At this stage they are still mulling them over, but they have already flagged concerns over AR15's, auto shotguns, as well as porous checks and vetting in their admin processes.



I suspect they will copy our model pretty closely.



There will be a surrender demand to owners of high powered rifles.

High powered or semi automatic rifles?
Title: Re: New Zealand now understands gun control
Post by: Bricktop on March 18, 2019, 09:38:40 PM
Both.



Certainly semi autos are doomed.



The ownership rate of firearms in NZ is triple that of Australia...with far less reason or justification to possess them. There are no large animals for hunters (I think they may have deer, but no crocs, water buffalo, feral goats, camels and pigs).



They will now understand that what we did was right, necessary and effective. But what may happen now is these whackjobs may try their insanity in countries with less controls...such as Canada.

I saw on the news they mentioned rules changing for semi automatic firearms, but they said nothing about high powered firearms.

So what? You carried a gun. Whoopdy doo. Who hasn't.



Me pointing out that you're a double down coward on the issue of self defence has nothing to do with a physical confrontation between you and I. In fact, that you even went there speaks volumes about your irrational phobia, overblown yet fragile ego, and of course that big fat know nothing gob of yours.

Now, wait...



On one hand, you say a person should carry a gun to protect themselves.



On the other, you call me a coward for carrying a gun to protect you.



Make up your mind, twinky dink...assuming there is enough of it left to make.

You don't carry a gun to protect me and when you did carry a gun, it wouldn't have saved anyone's life or limb in nearly any case.



All we have is 000 to dial and a 5-10 minute moment to reflect on our life  (if we're lucky) because you and people like you have such contempt and fear of citizens that you push to render us tax paying livestock good for your salaries and pensions but expendable when your monopoly on violence and aggression could ever conceivably be challenged.



We can't even possess a can of mace here because we've been pushed into being victims. Prey.



That makes you and people like you cowards. Self serving and insecure little cowards. My firm belief. Piss and moan all you like. It's true.

We have a friend whose grand daughter works at subway. They were robbed at gunpoint. They were wearing hoodies. The friend has sent letters etc to all her representatives, state and federal, demanding that hoodies be outlawed. She is my wifes best friend so I can't really call her out about it, or it has been suggested quite strongly that I shouldn't. Next thing you know people will have to show id to buy plastic knives....oh wait....

Would you feel the same if your son was worshipping in a church, when a crazed madman with an AR15 burst in and sprayed the place until all were dead?



Later, it was revealed that he'd purchased the firearm legally, modified it legally and was fully licenced. Would that make it more acceptable?



Throwing millions of guns into a society fracturing at the seams would seem to me to be the very pinnacle of irresponsible stupidity.

He carries a pistol.



The offender has at least one AR15, and plenty of mags.



There is a world of difference between carrying a pistol, and responding to a life threatening emergency. Try it. Fill a room full of your friends, and at some random time another will storm into that room, firing a semi or full auto military calibre rifle...maybe filled with blanks. See how you respond. In our training, this is exactly what we experienced...out of nowhere, loud gunfire and screaming. Switching to effective defence takes a LOT of will power and discipline.



It's also odd that many people believe that these lunatics just wander into their chosen field of operation blindly and without consideration of armed resistance. In YOUR country especially, they will be vigilant for return fire.



Of course, nothing will change in America. You guys love guns. They make you feel taller and tougher. You have RIGHTS.

I do love my guns, but its not like Im drinking Ent juice and growing lol, nah I feel prouder, a protector, a defender, aint those the things you felt when you carried?
Title: Re: New Zealand now understands gun control
Post by: Bricktop on March 20, 2019, 07:55:36 PM
No.



If I were only respected and effective because of a gun, I'd have quit.



Not at any stage did carrying a gun make me feel stronger, or even safer. When you've lived in the underworld, you soon learn that events usually happen outside your control, and carrying a gun rarely, if ever, prevented those events. True, there were times when the firearm resolved and controlled situations...but only after the damage had been done.



Guns don't protect if the other side has the element of surprise (which is usually the case) or simply doesn't care. A gun is only effective if fired.



And if my training taught me anything, it taught me that 30 metres with a pistol gave you a reasonable chance of a stopping hit, 50 metres required a lot of luck, and after that you may as well spit. If they have a rifle, get out fast. If you had a .357 the chances reduced because of the recoil.

Post by: Blazor on March 20, 2019, 08:11:55 PM
Those aint the words I used, I said "prouder, a protector, a defender". Again I see what you are saying on all those other things, but all depends on the person, and its a hell of a lot better than having nothing. Im not a fast runner, and my karate aint very good against a gun, especially unless you close.

What you're saying, and with which I agree, is that things just aren't that simple any more. The maniacs have worked out how to slaughter crowds of people. They work out their targets and there is nothing we can do to identify them all and interdict their madness.



Whilst I maintain my general tenet on the issue of gun control, we are moving to a point where more armed security personnel are going to be needed, even at previously ignored venues like churches and schools.



World's going to hell, and Satan's minions are doing a bang up job accelerating the process.

True, the maniacs you normally dont know til its too late.



The thing with hired hands, is you have to wait for hired hands to react, and who knows where they may be during the situation. It use to be legal for kids to carry a rifle to school here long time ago, but that got struck down quick. It also use to be no big deal to carry a pistol, and more people did, but then it seemed like there was more peaceful times, less carried, then it turned into a scary thing to see in public and others quit carrying. Less and less folks carry openly. This gives these maniacs the chance, easy pickin's in their eyes. Where if more carried, respectful folk, this would deter a LOT of this.

Some info regarding New Zealand and gun control--



In spite of much stricter gun laws Australia actually had 19% more murders by gun than New Zealand.

https://www.nationmaster.com/country-info/compare/Australia/New-Zealand/Crime  



The shooter in New Zealand broke gun laws--he modified his weapons.  Somehow these gun laws didn't stop him.



Firearm homicides have been falling in New Zealand, Australia, Canada and the US

If you have studied statistics, you would instantly recognise 2 major flaws with that graph.



Firstly, sample size. You cannot compare vastly diverse sample size scores with each other. Small sample sizes will produce smaller peaks and troughs, and are heavily influenced by large peaks and troughs.



Secondly, the measurement of the statistical survey must be valid. Deaths per hundred thousand may not be the best way to understand the consequence of gun ownership. It may provide a numerical value of the potential to be shot, but it will not describe trends such as mass shooting events.

As always, a set of lines makes a nice headline, but fails to explain the numbers in the graph.



The reduction is ONLY in relation to homicide deaths. Not total firearm related deaths. Given the population size of New Zealand, Australia and Canada compared to the US, the correct measurement for comparison is the standard deviation, not average per 100,000.



This is why people declare there are lies, damn lies and statistics. People roll out a statistic which is not an accurate measurement of the true data.



Also, the statistics do not explain the cause of the spikes and troughs, which are far more meaningful.

Japanese admiral yamamoto one said invasion of the US was impossible because there would be a rifle behind every blade of grass. Now that oz has disarmed itself they are vunarable to china and Indonesia. Thank god some aussies buried their semi automatics to use if they are invaded

Perhaps before the Japanese or anyone else considers invading Australia on the premise that there are fewer guns per capita than other nations, they may wish to consider invading Italy, Mexico, Russia, Northern Ireland, South Africa or Spain...amongst the almost 180 nations with fewer guns per capita than Australia.

Prior to the invasion of their country by the US, the Iraqi's provided thousands of civilians with AK47's to supplement the military with a civilian security force.



Most of them, on seeing a US tank or helicopter, dropped their weapons and legged it.



Most civilians in any other country would do the same thing. Including the US.

They will want to invade for its reasourses the gold mines and opals and iron ore, just like Hitler invaded Russia for the same aim. I suppose the US and UK won't be around for ever to protect australia

I doubt our gold resources are of a dimension to attract unwanted guests and amongst all of the idiotic, asinine and pointless reasons men have gone to war, none would be so silly and trite as wanting access to opals. The world already has access to our vast iron ore stocks.



The US, UK, Canada and New Zealand will always stand together, because we share common geneology and racial origins. We are, in effect, cousins in a very real sense. Perhaps New Zealand will stand alone, but if push came to shove, they would help as they've done in the past.



Invading Australia would be no easy task. There is no chance of a surprise attack, given the distances required to reach our shores with a military force capable of invasion. Australia would probably have MONTHS of forewarning, and on that basis, any invader would need to consider where they would land. If they tried to circumvent the country to land in the south or east, their fleet would be easy pickings. The only realistic option would be to invade from the north.



They would then need to cross the vast expanse of desert and bushland that has very little water to reach the larger population centres. Australia is not like Iraq, where the desert is just a flat sandpit. Australia's desert is harsh landscape, with very few roads (that would have been destroyed before the enemy fleet arrived). It is a massive barrier between north and south east, with few passages for military convoys. Any mobilisation would be exposed to air attacks as well as ground based disruption. Australia would be tougher to invade than Afghanistan.



Australia's military is modern and well equipped, with full backing and support from the US and the UK. The US is bound to Australia's defence by the ANZUS treaty, which binds the two nations together in time of conflict. In return the US operates strategically crucial espionage facilities in Australia. Any attack on Australia would be an attack on US interests.



Australia's status with the US is the equivalent of Israel's...even stronger when you consider the racial and cultural commonalities.



Our potential enemies know this well.

Any invasion by China of Australia would likely be followed by ethnic cleansing, just like they are doing in Tibet, Siankiang (East Turkistan) and Inner Mongolia, owing to the size of the chinese population they could flood Austraila with 100 million han chinese

I think you need to peruse an atlas.



Whilst I take the point you're making...moving 100 million people ANYWHERE would be a logistical mountain of problems. And how will they feed themselves when they get here. Australia does not have the capacity to feed and water that many people.



If China wanted to extend it's boundaries, it would be far better to move into SE Asia and Korea than Australia.

If China does invade, their plan probably is not a conventional invasion..



They will bring a nation to it's knees with an economic embargo and e-warfare.
