    How's this for a deterrent ?

    Between the "cunstabulary" and our courts/judges I'm not sure which one would win the prize for muppet of the year.
    This person & their actions get a slap on the wrist & home D ???

    Hard to blame cops for a judge’s decision.

    And the poor chap will now get the support and counseling he desperately needs and deserves…

    Yep, agree cops did their job on this one - but see other the thread on bad cop behaviour & cover up.
    Cops must be gutted when they see courts hand out decisions like this.

    Maybe Simpson's mother/father is a judge.....it will be interesting to see the outcome of the Wanaka couple's case. I wonder if any strings will be pulled to achieve a meaning ful outcome?

    So what the fuck does a person shooting an illegal firearm at innocent members of the public actually have to do for a judge to send them to prison? Fuck me dead, why do we bother?

    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

    Obviously wasn't a licensed firearms owner or the jail sentence would have probably been upheld .
    Not very confidence inspiring when our justice system considers pre-planned shooting at vehicles with a shotty on a motorway only worthy of home d .
    No wonder these crims are all shaking in their boots ....

    And nobody was concerned he was also found to be in possession of explosives! Sounds like another nut job who was getting the gear together to go on a rampage.

    They just have to become a Firearm Arm Licenced person! Because then, they would be deemed fit and proper and should have known better! So here comes the book, the crims just an arsehole and knew no better. I’m studying to be a judge in my retirement, there’s two spots, you in? Hahahaha, Fuck we’d have some fun Rushy hahaha

    i know for a fact that good cops are as upset as any one of us by bad cops and their actions. They have serious skin in the game, and bad cops' actions make the job more difficult for the good ones.
