    Call to End Firearms Advertising.

    Page 2 of today’s Otago Daily Times.

    The Gun Control nincompoops spouting off their ignorance and bias again with gens like “Hunters knew where to buy guns, the rest of New Zealand did not need guns advertised to them Ms Cook said”

    Yeah, I am a fan of fight as dirty as possible. Kick em in the imaginary nuts first and ask questions later.

    Those bastards twist everything imaginable to get a dig at us, so give it to them twice as bad.

    If I was an Otago University academic I'd be embarrassed to be associated with the "work" of Hera Cook

    I am with you Micky, especially don’t like the gross wash ‘‘em and wring ‘‘em out ad. As to those two in the photo above, the need to take a leaf out of this old duck’s book.

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    There is a wider point here

    I think that the agenda which Ms Cook represents is seeking to marginalise firearms ownership as something abnormal or shameful like the way that cigarette advertising and alcohol advertising is banned
    I think that they want to cut us off and set us apart so that they can paint FAL holders in a light which shows us as weirdo paranoid gun nuts

    Some of the 2nd amendment US ranting style reactions plays right into their hands
    Personal attacks also play into their hands

    I fully support us publicly pointing out how much taxpayers money is being spent by Ms Cook and her associates for very little gain and I believe that this is a better strategy for getting the NZ public onside

    Under Labour there is a lot of public money being thrown at consultants for LetsGetWgtnMoving/ Polytechs among plenty of other projects close to their tax-raising hearts

    Anyone remember the hip-hop tour scandal?
    https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/agency...4Q25PHWYRAWAE/

    This sort of angle is going to win more hearts and minds than fussing over tampons

    The NZ public are starting to become aware that Labour is pissing their tax dollars up against a wall for very little gain in an inflationary world, if we as FAL owners can ride that tide of pointing out government wastage then we have practically written their articles for them

    On that note, the Firearms Register is going to be a HUGE waste of money, we should bang that drum more

    I think that the mood of the nation is better shown by articles like Rebecca Stevenson's latest in interest.co

    https://www.interest.co.nz/business/...ng-do-about-it

    Many here may disagree with what she says but I think that she has her finger on the pulse more than others


    It is REALLY easy for some lazy hack to quote an inflammatory personal attack esp on a woman and chuck us all in the bin for it
