In 2017 govt removed christ from the parliamentry prayer.
Today, this govt opened parliament with a multi faith precession and Islamic prayer.
No mention of Jesus.
I love my fellow man to much to ignore this.
This is my last tweet as alias Rob A.

He's already beaten you.
The very moment you went after responsible gun owners, he won.
You need to resign. You are the minister for National Security and Intelligence.
It happened on your watch.

So here we have a case of townies telling farmers what they can and cant do on their own land.
An emotionally charged knee jerk reaction by our virtue signaling PM.
Curtailing gun rights of responsible kiwis won't stop criminals & terrorists.

The Fake News Media is working overtime to blame me for the horrible attack in New Zealand. They will have to work very hard to prove that one. So Ridiculous!
@64by4@MatthewJMaguire You did engage me, seems you don't know what your talking about...
Margaret River, 2018. Worst shooting since port Arthur, nut job used a bolt action .22 to murder 7 members of his family.
Banning semi autos in 1996 didn't make a difference.
People kill people, not guns.
@MatthewJMaguire@64by4 Oh man, you keep trying to link gun ownership with killing people.
NZ is among the lowest homicide rates by gun crime. 200,000+ responsible owners, 1.5mil in circulation.
Terrorists and crim's find a way.
$$ spent reimbursing owners could be spent reducing child poverty.
@64by4@MatthewJMaguire By implying that someone's existing liberties are at stake If you dont amend rights to own a firearm is like saying anyone who owns a gun is going to use it with the wrong intentions.
That's ridiculous, no one would ever be able to get a firearms license if that was the case.
@jameslast831 Daughter : Dad, this is my boyfriend Jimmy.
Dad: Nice to meet you Jimmy, so what do you do ?
Jimmy: Oh, I'm a journalist.
Dad: ..........get out.
@64by4 What about the farmer that hangs themselves, Do you ban the rope ?
It's an entirely separate issue.
Banning guns doesn't change the fact that farmers get depressed.
Nor does it change the fact that bad people will always find a way to carry out bad things. Guns or no guns.
@olwyn11 So perhaps questions need to be asked of the police ?
How could a foreign national, with no job, who traveled extensively throughout the middle east, purchase a semi automatic weapon and not have the police do a check.
And where did he get the 30 round magazine from ?
5 days after the Chch mosque shooting, and this picture is very hazy...
The govt has underestimated how easily people are beginning to see through this charade.
It's about socialists / globalists capitalizing on a tragedy to curtail individual rights.
Be afraid NZ.

@olwyn11 To obtain a license in the first place you are police vetted, you also have to provide referances. You then have to sit a test. Once you have a license you can apply for various endorsements, which involves the police vetting you again. Firearms officers will do follow up.
