Well that escalated quickly. Because of the horrible terrible attack on two mosques were Muslims were unable to defend themselves from armed scumbags, New Zealand will make sure EVERYONE else is also similarly disarmed to make them all defenseless targets.
New Zealand will ban military style semi-automatics and assault rifles and establish a nationwide buyback of the weapons in the wake of a terrorist attack on two mosques that left 50 people dead.
“I strongly believe that the vast majority of legitimate gun owners in New Zealand will understand that these moves are in the national interest, and will take these changes in their stride,” Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern told reporters Thursday.
Brilliant.
I hasten to add that the scumbag murderer who left a manifesto explaining why he did it specifically said that he wanted people to fight over gun rights and gun control. So they’re doing exactly what he wanted them to do.
