    It's called Rule creep.... or frog in a pot syndrome. Throw a frog into a pot of warm water and it jumps out.... throw it into cold water and slowly heat it up, the frog falls asleep and dies.....
    Our rules and taxes have been slowly changing for the past 40 years.
    Remember when you could park your car up for a few years. Pull it out get a wof re rego it and away you'd go. Not any more...now you have to put it on hold and if you don't remember that the debt collector arrives with a big bill....
    Speed cameras give you a fine but they don't stop you for 15 minutes and write you a ticket and check out the vehicle?
    Call me old fashioned but police out there patrolling the streets and highways is better than a $250k camera snitching on ya and stuffing the Gov't bank account...
    The law is the law and no one should be above it.. You do realize that if Chch mass murderer hadn't been able to get license to get weapons ! There's a fair chance that the buyback would not have happened... any way not going to change it now..... The anti gun movement has made the most of the event to push their agendas and ideals.... nothing new really.

    Just FYI, that's been proven to be bollocks. The frog jumps out.
