    All good signs. patience.
    I try not to use Reddit too much (as it's mostly snow flake lefties) but this whole Firearms thing has come up a few time on the NZ Reddit page.

    The average reddit person is actually far less anti-gun than I expected (I was shoked actually) and are just surprised that people want changes as they thought everyone was happy with the new laws...
    Hopefully with Nicole leading these changes there can be a good faith discussion about firearms, as they sure as hell wasn't able to happen last time.
    Most people are reasonable, and when presented a real debate (rather than the beloved leader scapegoating LFAO) then I think most people will actually be on board.

    The biggest issue with regard to anti-gun people is them trying to make out like we are introducing USA style gun laws, if you point out any sporting exemption for semi-auto use is actually more like Europe and especially the nordic countries (Finland, Norway, Sweeden) then it puts it into perspective for people.
