Re: Important Petition! Dangerous weapons bill
After that news article I fired off an email to Dianne Kohler Barnard, MP... she responded and said I could share the correspondence... so here goes:

Re: Important Petition! Dangerous weapons bill
OK...respect to Dianne for replying and doing so in a respectful and decent manner. Much better than the response I got from old Robin.
I just hope she (and her party) follows-through and ensures that this Bill is contained within what is constitutional.

Re: Important Petition! Dangerous weapons bill
TBH threatening a person with a brick also considers it a weapon - what's the use of the bill then?
EDIT: But constructive. Excellent feedback though. Open, honest (debatable, but let's assume it is) and clear. I quite like it. Let's see how this turns out.

Re: Important Petition! Dangerous weapons bill
What worries me is still the 'dragging you behind a police van', 'beating you to death in a cell', 'selling guns on the black market' police officials that have to garnish the intelligence to interpret the convoluted Bill in the heat of the moment. (Not saying all cops are bad, but the danger is that one corrupt official that can really ruin your day with it.)
