Firearms Project Community Discussion Sessions: FCAF update

[gonetropo]

I've just got back from tonights meeting in ChCh. Thought it was a pretty decent meeting, Mike spoke well, appeared to be honestly trying to do something positive, and had a sense of humour. After all the scaremongering from various people and groups, I was quite surprised at how well it went. There were a number of very good points put forward by some eloquent speakers, and they were listened to. We can only hope, but it looks like Mike may be in it for the long haul. And he said on a number of occasions " the Arms Act is not changing" However on a number of occasions he also said "they" are in the process of updating/writing policy, so the devil will be in the detail.

well he did chuckle when i said if his kids took up firearms they would never be able to afford drugs
