Funny as eh? They obviously don't give a flying fuck about anyone but themselves.
If they get caught I'm sure the media will say oh well, just hunters being hunters. Won't give any ammo to the anti hunter or gun types what so ever. It's not like they could label us all, as inconsiderate assholes because they don't give a shit.
Its not about a virus, it is about doing your bit for all hunters and shooters and show some common sense.
Anyone who has gone out flaunting the rules by hunting public land is a piece of shit and I hope they lose their licence.

No I find it funny you're getting all worked up and pissy about it, swearing on here isn't going to change anything.
Just like telling people to stop poaching, itll never stop. I'm just stating the obvious of what's going on around the country side, Going bush is alot safer than going to get groceries and that's how alot of people are seeing it

I honestly think the "no hunting" is likely down to the fact that after all this time at level 4, how many people will be super keen to get out for a hunt....for most of us getting out there takes a bit of a drive and our main goal is to wipe out Covid-19, not potentially spread it between regions. Hunting looks to be fine at level 2 so that's the goal right? lets not forget the situation were in, we have to be responsible now and do what is best. Making a sacrifice now makes it all the more likely we can get back to a more normal way of life at a national level sooner, and that includes getting out for a hunt where and when we want to.

Well if anyone feels that strongly about it they could try to contact one of the accredited parliamentary press gallery members, and convince them to ask a question at tomorrows 'love in' ?

Currently hunting isn't just against the rules, it's against the law until the 22nd April, and beyond that if the Health notice is extended.
And if on public land without permission from DOC it's poaching.
This is quite likely my last roar, and i have (had?) a permit for a ballot block for tomorrow and Saturday, but I would rather not risk losing my FAL.
When we go to level 3 I'm thinking I might go for a walk and set up my game cameras again, I get just as much enjoyment from the pictures as I do from hunting.
Hopefully the hunting organisations will be pushing for day hunts in your own region to be allowed under level 3.

Too many fudds. If there's no increase in the vote that ACT receives then both parties will know they can fuck with us as much as possible and nothing will happen at the voting booth.

Here's the police ministers reason just a few min ago ??????????? The only reason he had?? I'm hoping it hasn't been thought through and we will see some changes.

If mountain biking and tramping is okay under alert level 3, why can't we hunt?

"What we've said you can do is you can go surfing, you can go fishing as long as you're fishing from the shore, not in a boat. I'm assuming if you're going hunting, you've got to jump in a car and drive.
"We want to limit travel to only essential travel. So you're going to and from work, you're going to the hospital if you need to, you're going to and from the supermarket, but [as for] non-essential travel, again, we want to limit [that]."

?????????? I assume if you're going for a day walk that you might have to drive also???????

The guy has no idea, even the covid19 website says driving 45 minutes to the beach is okay under level 3.
"What sort of activities can I do?

You can drive to a nearby area to go for a walk or run, for example a beach 45 minutes away. This could mean travelling outside your region if the nearest beach or park if it is still within a close distance to your home – for example travelling from Porirua to Paraparaumu.

You can go for a swim at the beach, a day walk, or fishing from a wharf."

Thats bullshit, because they have already said you can drive up to 45 mins to go to the beach etc. So you are allowed to drive. Nash is a disgusting lying sack of shit, nothing more. I fucking hope I never meet that man.

I'll be honest. I was never much chop on ACT but in the last couple of yrs David Seymour has been very consistent in his critique of the government and he has gained my respect for that. He's playing his current role very well.

You only have to look at the minimal financial support COLFA received from licenced firearm owners, "joe average" doesn't give a toss.

So the next big question is " How long are we going to stay in level 3 for?" My guess is that it will be a lot longer than we were in level 4.

I hope you are wrong but suspect you may be correct.
