    Apart from Mike Loder, who can be questionable at times what proof is there that this isnt fake news

    Never mind ive just seen the evidence. Outstanding security awareness by the officers involved. Neither probably have a fal, or if they do dont belong to a pistol club. I have seen rifles been put on the back seat of patrol cars while they go and do something else. Then scurry back to remove the mag and put both in the boot.

    "He confirmed the keys were left in the ignition of the patrol car. The offender then used keys to gain access to the car's weapons lock box." (quote from stuff)

    And the best quote of the day

    "I would just encourage all citizens of the Gore district and indeed the wider Southland area to just take care and make sure vehicles and their property is secure ... lock your property, lock your cars."

    Nash and carhill should be forced to resign due to no confidence following brazen statements about police and security.

    Wasn't there a news article recently with screwed statistics about how many firearms are stolen from unlocked vehicles. The stats said 33% of all firearms stolen are from unattended vehicles. In the smallprint it then stated that the 33% was taken from a subset of about 20% of all stolen firearms data. Or something like that. I guess fudging the numbers makes it look better if they are higher.

    Do as I say not as I do..............

    As a pistol shooter I'm so bloody careful when transpoting them and more so if I ever have to stop between the range & home. But to leave the keys in the car with the pistols as @spada said...............Un F*!@&ing Believable.

    In my opinion it is the Police Commissioner that also needs to own this stuff VC. Any good CEO would accept the accountability and responsibility for all shortcomings lays with him/her.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    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

    Yes but unlike in private business, in politics you never have to be accountable thats why they are there

    Its ok Im sure he will sell them back to the government at the next southland confiscation event as it is a buy back right? These will be the only firearms actually "bought back" as they actually previously owned them. Or did they? We as tax payers paid for them, does that mean we own?them? Im confused.
    Either way I feel so much safer now. Dont you?

    Well they were our,s but then they were there's but now they are Hori,s , Hori doesn't have a firearms licence so the cops don't want them included in the buy back I guess technically and officially there still Hori,s ....TO BE CONTINUED
