In this day and age of increasing crime and violence the last thing we need is damn gunshops.

It`s not so much "who they sell them to" but in whoes hands they end up in!.

If my family had our way we would ban all firearms worldwide!.

Anyone interested in taking a stand against this rubbish reporting and also protecting their firearms from government\police legislation would be right to visit www.nsanz.org.nz

Public perception needs to change, and the truth needs to come out about firearms ownership and its benefits.

Campbell, you've hit a new low with this story. As Mr Tipple so rightly pointed out, children get more exposure to firearms use at home through the medium of video games. This is exposure that is known as "operant conditioning" in the military. Though this exposure is also without any form of discipline which is instilled in military troops or even normal firearms license holders.
I hold a firearms license and I also own rifles. I find it offensive that people who know nothing of this subject immediately label us as bad people. I don't sell drugs. I don't steal things. I obey the law. I notice that you didn't actually speak to any firearms owners.
I also notice that the "firearms charges" were not elaborated on. What were they exactly?
And as for "Roger" if you are so worried about killing God's creatures with firearms, and you believe in that sort of thing, who do you think gave us guns! If God created everything then God created guns. Dear God, thank you for guns. Amen.
