I know of people who have strings of lights around campsite for just that very reason...... sad but true.

tick the boxes...one at a time....moving??? tick..deer shape???....tick....hind or stag??? tick.... moving as a live deer does???? tick can I see its head movement???? tick takes but a second or two to do that.....we all do it bush stalking...night time is no different.
this is a tragedy if true....Im hoping its not. MOST of the country learnt from the Rosemary brushing teeth tragedy...MOST.

sadly trout you are right - not the first or the last

Will probably come out in the following days. Media seems to be a day or two late on many stories. But what a tragedy.

its got to be woven into an anti gun diatribe 1st alas . me ,Im bloody horrified and infuriated at same time ,fuckwits all ,someone should have swallowed to put it bluntly.

Guns are simpler to operate than a motor vehicle-we dont have handbooks and reams of regs -we have 7simple rules all based on COMMON SENSE yes COMMON SENSE,but the highest functioning mammals or at least specimens of seem to still be unteachable.

Only when it suits them. Would have thought they’d be all over this. Is it because this happened in Te Urewera?

For sure. What's the significance of Te Urewera?

If its true its tragic.
Alcohol comes out once all firearms are locked away, it's just a given. Hope it's a rumor
If this area is so notorious why no patrols, Even use the military, exercise for info gathering. Army got all the gear and would probably appreciate getting out of camp
Police can then deal with it.

I get the. Hebi jebies when people say they bush hunt with a round up the spout encase they need to snap shoot anything.


95% of the time im hunting with an empty chamber.
If i cant cycle a round in quietly IMO i generally dont have enough time to identify the target AND decide if u have good shot placement.

Watch this vid mate. I don’t think Tuhoe people would appreciate the presence of the police let alone the military.

Read the police affidavit of interception evidence regarding the training camps. It's quite long-winded but pages 80-115 give a good sense of the flavour, such as:

“there’s the Al Qaeda manual and that’s fucking good. That’s right up to date”
“I’m getting on to sixty, I can still kill to the day I die”
“strategy will divide, will divide Aotearoa, “extreme violence, and extreme fucken actions too.”
“five well trained dudes on the end of those guns they can take out a hundred people”
“You know like the IRA in England”
“It’s gonna happen here”
“I’m a warrior…I’m ready to die mate, I’m gonna hurt this country”
“I wanna leave this planet making sure that I’ve done a fucken huge amount of harm to this country”
