    So, Tipple has commited a crime right? And is also advertised that he did serve his time in prison, Right? So when will be the report start her time in prison in this so "righteous" country?
    Just my thought.

    There has been lots of slander towards firearm owners in the media lately, looks like a useless reporter wants an easy promotion. Hope he gets promoted to prison for forging shit.

    I see one difference between the chopper pilot and the reporter. And its a big one. The reporter set out to INTENTIONALLY break the law. It was deliberate act and she KNEW she was going to break the law when she did so. The Pilot did NOT go out with the intention of breaking the law. He was there in a guidance role and only made the decision to do what he did when he saw there could be fatal consequences if he did not.

    SO

    If a bloke who flew a helicopter while not currently licensed in a life and death rescue situation is not permitted to break the rules in that situation then no way in hell should a reporter allowed to break laws of a far more serious note without repercussions. (Fraud / forgery, and illegeally obtaining firearm and clearly her reason for obtaining a firearm was not for a legal purpose)

    My thoughts.

    I believe they conspired to break the law for pecuniary gain......TV3's Story's waning TV ratings and revenue.......they couldn't give a shit about the public as they know damn well no crook would try and obtain a firearm this way with a paper trail leading back to them and all the laws broken, all signed for on paper, Greg Newbold, an actual expert(former felon & Criminologist) backs this up.

    The system is far from perfect, but the character of most firearms owners make it work for everyone's benefit.
    Maybe there needs some changes, and Police were working on them anyway, but not like this with a headline grabbing journo and Police Union President wanting Police armed 24/7 being the driving force.

    You can expect more "public interest" pieces from TV3. They have contacted Auckland gun clubs attempting to video unlicensed persons shooting.

    This isn't over. Somebody at TV3 or their string pullers have an agenda regarding firearms

    Agreed.
    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

    There is such a thing as WD, I've seen women reading it. I've lived in this friendly South Waikato town since 1966 apart from the usual few years experiencing the 'great overseas experience' thing when I was younger plus a few short years in Wellywood.

    So we were there at the same time. I left town in 1971 to join the army.
