Get a load of what a lot of everyday Kiwi's seem to think of the US and our gun laws.

Democrats?

Yeah.  I'm all out of give-a-fuck as far as what New Zealand's opinion is.

Who cares? And did y'all see what the responses to that fag? Lol.

I'm supposed to care about what foreigners think about our domestic laws? Think not.

Let them run their own country the way they see fit. This is OUR country, founded by people that wanted to make it unlike any other country on earth. They succeeded. We have rights and liberties the rest can only envy.

Not everyone is up to the task of handling such responsibility of advanced citizenship. This country is strong enough to realize the actions of one mentally depraved individual shouldn't disavow the rights of the millions of law-abiding citizens. The sheep that pass for citizens of other countries don't get it. That's why this country's founders moved here in the first place: to recognize the rights of the individual.

In fact, it could be argued that it was the university's denial of the student's rights to legally carry their own personal sidearms may have led to the degree of the disaster. By declaring their university a "gun-free" zone, they forced their students to be defenseless in the face of this lunatic. The disastrous results of illogical "disarmed equals peacefull" thinking was forced home in harsh reality Monday. And yet some people still don't get it.

as in the sheeple....

In NZ you can own damn near anything you want to own.

A buddy of mine is a Kiwi and he has a full auto collection that would make most of us have to change our pants.

I don't know how they could be all ticked off about our gun laws.

The meek and subjugated criticizing the freedoms they cast off? Why am I not surprised?

As I understand it, they can own just about any weapon they want, but they're not legally allowed to shoot the full-autos.

Ironically right here on our boards:

Quoted: Not really C&R (I think, don't have a equal in NZ) but the "restricted Firearms" from my collection: My regular rifles:

'The Right to Bear Arms' Nearly as out of date as the Ten Commandments.

Maybe if we didn't have this attitude that the Ten Commandments was so out of date then we wouldn't have so many of these massacres.

Sex toys?

No, from what my buddy tells me he regularly shoots his full autos without problem.

NZ..............where men are men and sheep are nervous!




someone had to say it................................

Its ironic to me that a few opinions expressed in a newspaper are suddenly the standing national opinion of an entire country as far as AR15.com is concerned.

If you spoke to ten people in any NZ street, you would get ten different opinions, just as Im sure the same would occur on any street in the US.  Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.  No one says you have to like it.  To then make disparaging remarks about their country (of which I am very proud) is disappointing to say the least.

I work in Baghdad as a private security contractor for an American company.  On my team there are Americans, Kiwis and South Africans.  As with any team of alpha males, there is a healthy dose of smack talking about any and all subjects and a sense of humour is essential.

No one would ever make remarks about anothers country like Ive seen in this thread.  Not even as a joke.  Whilst we all give each other a hard time, we are all brothers and depend on each other each and every day.  I would never tell any of my US colleagues their country was fucked.  If anything, they are harsher critics of their own countries policies and politicians than we could ever be.

This thread confirms why I hardly ever look at GD or post in any threads.  I'll stick to the Equipment Exchange if I need something or the AR15 forums to learn more about my primary.  

I fear I would think all AR15.com members were just as fucking ignorant as the ones in this thread.

Wah.  One of your own wrote that article.  Blame him for writing it, not us for mocking it.

Hmmm, indeed.

Would you want to be taken to task for something Hilary wrote simply because she was an American like yourself?

If they share the same heritage as the ones from down under then their opinioin is quite moot.

Happens all the time, right now we're being taken to task for everything George Bush says and does, whether we agree with it or not.  Big deal.

Quoted: Its ironic to me that a few opinions expressed in a newspaper are suddenly the standing national opinion of an entire country as far as AR15.com is concerned. That's why I prefaced with "everday kiwi's". Of course those are opinions of a few and not an entire country.

And you should be proud of your country, just as we are of ours. However, I am equally disappointed by comments from the link like "the US deserves this because of the war in Iraq." If any sympathy should be shown it should be to the families of this horrible tragedy.

And one just as easily could say I'll just stick to reading ARFCOM because if I read any more sites from NZ, I would think all Kiwis were America Hating Socialists who mock our dead in times of tragedy.

So then we should behave in the same manner.  Gotcha.

With the exception of gun laws, the NZ people have turned their government around into one I would like to have here....

But yeah, screw the gun control.  VT is a grim example of total failure of gun control.

 Who cares what they think. Thanks to their anti-US Navy policies they aren't even an allied nation of ours anymore.

  I can only hope if their worthless country gets invaded, we sit it out, just like they are sitting out the war in Iraq.

 Good job on banning US Navy ships Kiwis. That's whar happens when you elect tree-hugging dirt-worshipping hippies as your government.
