“Democrats in Congress are salivating as this is happening. Their lawyers are selecting judges to start the push for confiscation here”

They would be well advised to save the money spent on lawyers and instead buy some body armor, because The direction they’re attempting to steer this country, they’re going to need it.

It wasn’t a part. He admits wanting to start a war. That’s why having the Manifesto or the video is illegal. It goes against the narrative.
“He was a white supremacist driven to killing by Trump’s rhetoric.” That’s all the sheeple are allowed to believe.
There is this book called 1984...

>Will the people of New Zealand stand by while their rights are trampled?

The subjects of Commonwealth Nations have subservience to their betters in their DNA.

That’s right. Another FReeper said people will hide their guns and next election, throw out the Lefties.

“Democrats in Congress are salivating as this is happening. Their lawyers are selecting judges to start the push for confiscation here.”

Congress doesn’t nominate Federal judges; the President does, subject to confirmation in the Senate by simple majority. Left wing activists aren’t likely to nominated by PDJT as they were under Obama, and if they were, the still-majority Republican Senate would not vote to confirm.

Push for confiscation comes in the form of legislation; the House has already passed a huge gun grabbing bill which is guaranteed to be either DOA in the Senate or be vetoed by the President.

Now, if you mean there are lots of liberal Obama appointees out there who will eagerly sign Red Flag warrants to confiscate guns from fingered citizens, then yes, that is a clear and present danger.

The House could conceivably invite them to testify as to their eagerness to confiscate, with a pep talk from the Waddler or Swalwell or AOC or the Hijabi Bitch, but that’s the extent of their influence over judges, which would also be an unseemly corruption of judicial independence under Separation of Powers.

By the time ardern is done, Kiwis will need a permission slip from the government to use the restroom.

Are there any pictures of the dead being carried to ambulances? Are there any pictures of their burials? Are there any interviews of survivors? Interesting... Could this have been yet another false flag?

“What stupid people the New Zealanders are.I guess we’ll have to hope they come to their senses”

I read last night that only 37 guns had been handed in voluntarily so far so it seems there is a lot of resistance.

Imagine the insult to the Muslims.

“Don’t worry. You don’t need guns. The police will protect you. “
I mean...really? How disrespectful is that? For the head of the state (i.e. the people protecting them) to show up with a bonnet and say “Sorry about the 50 dead but I’m wearing a rag on my head because I understand what you have been through. We’ll do better next time”. I mean, dam.

Like our libs they have these laws already written. They’re just waiting on the right situation to invoke them.

Most of New Zealand is wilderness and sheep

What does bubbleheaded idiot woman doesn’t understand is that only the good guys hand in guns when you ban them

Furthermore this murderer guy was from Australia he wasn’t even from New Zealand

Stupidity as we all know knows no bounds

I am thinking about all of the wealthy Americans who have been buying up land in NZ, planning to use NZ as their escape hatch should thing really turn south in the US. So, I wonder what they are thinking about their brilliant plans now. Maybe time to unload their NZ property and search out another safe harbor. LOL

Currently, the penalties for this range from fines of up to $4,000 and or three years in prison. The draft legislation will look to increase these penalties.”

If incarceration doesn’t work, that just leaves the
death penalty, which is what they really mean.

If they do this, there will be civil war in the island.

That shooting is less than 2 weeks is it not? How can they even have legislation put together and passed for that?

They don't, not yet. I looked.

If confiscation is the beginning, makes you wonder what they have for an ending.
NZ is in for a real surprise when tourists refuse to return over this.
It is my favorite country but I’d rather visit Austria-Switzerland-Poland right now.

If they proclaimed me a lawbreaker, I would break the laws in the most extreme fashion possible.

If there is to be a war, let me take the front to them.
