Knee-Jerk Reaction

In New Zealand, the government, in a “knee-jerk reaction,” banned “all automatic weapons that can use a magazine holding more than five rounds.” Now our politicians are saying, “We need to follow New Zealand’s lead.” Where? Into oblivion? New Zealand isn’t “leading.” It is following all the anti-gun fools there are, who make useless anti-gun laws that do NOTHING to reduce gun violence. Instead INCREASING IT by disarming the law-abiding, who are NOT the problem, while ignoring the law breakers, who ARE the problem. Thus making it significantly easier for those law breakers to victimize the law-abiding. New Zealand is “looking at” other anti-gun laws with a view toward following suit, even though it is obvious none of them work. Look for there to soon be many new “gun-free zones” in NZ, and an “upsurge” I mass shootings, all of which will HAPPEN in “gun-free zones.” Then NZ will make more new anti-gun fool laws that further reduce the ability of honest, law-abiding people to defend themselves against those who obey NO LAWS.
