Shit, oops. I am dyslexic.

So how will the register "make it easier to identify the small (?) group in the community who might be in possession of firearms for illegitimate or criminal purposes" ?
Do these numpties really believe this stuff?

I doubt anyone belives this to be it's purpose. It's intention is to make confiscation easier.

lets say you registered a rifle but later on you lent it to a mate long term would they also confiscate that even though its not in your possession at the time if you ever are unlucky enough to have your licence revoked?

/puts on my Eric Idle voice
Because once they register their firearms the Po po will know they are breaking the law, and if they don't... then they will also be breaking the law.

It hath been spoken from “the pulpit of truth” in Wellington so (sadly) most of the unenlighted public (Joe or Jane voter) will swallow this (bullshit) as fact. The biased journalists/press will make sure the “unenlightened” are frequently reminded of this “fact” (lies) regardless that it is incorrect and misleading

I can see how it would discourage the small number of licence holders who engage in trade of used arms to non licensed or criminals.

That's the only benefit I see. Otherwise it's going to cost me money and they will no doubt limit the number of rifles I "need" at some point.

Think you'd find the ones who wish to pass on to "non licensed or criminals will "forget" to registrar the items needed. Probably well stocked prior to registration deadline.

Hmmmm! It concerns me greatly that there are only two options for providing the information (use the website or phone). I have an absolute personal aversion to using the website and I feel that providing the information via telephone exposes us to the operator on the other end of the line mis hearing, mis inputting or plain old suffering from dyslexia and fucking up the detail. I have no issue with providing the information in printed form to the arms officer at the local Police Station but I feel this to be unnecessary as I provided a list eight months ago and nothing has changed so all I ought to need to do is say “refer to the information you should already have on file.

hmmm-I read recently somewhere that word is it could be another major election issue ,aside from NZ first patronising statements that is.Use of SAPS computer systems is dubious. jobs for beige Bridget and and binary bungling Sebastian 'ooh sir but you must tell us how many black guns you have,oh you racist youve curdled my latte. to this out fit -get your sahit sorted before you demand i sort mine OK.

if its over 30 days you have to do a transfer to your mate, so technically its no longer yours, its your mates.
