Its only a matter of time until an innocent bystander is killed in the next gang vs Police shootout.
A woman has already been shot in South Auckland at her front door in a case of mistaken ID by gangs.
These OZ gangs have no qualms blazing away.

Can't be right, Mate. All those evil guns were taken off the street, at great expense to the taxpayer, to make NZ safe. And our highly-trained police force is here to protect us all. So they're the only ones allowed to have actual, evil guns. Oh, apart from our military forces who only use them in the defense of our pure, green land. And if your bullshitometer isn't ccccccccclanging over that lot, you need a head transplant.

I dont know about anyone else, but that comment from politicians always bugged me. I wanted to know how the buy back could "take guns off the street"? This was the one comment the Adern team seemed to like making, but the ONLY semi autos I ever saw "on the streets" were in the hands of Police.I have never seen a semi auto walking down the street, by itself or in a civilians hands....It might happen rarely and I have never seen it, but the Police would account for 99% of guns seen "on the streets".........
