Hello from down under
I am born in New Zealand and currently live in Brisbane Australia. I spend a good deal of time in New Zealand, Australia and America (McAllen, Texas 2 weeks a month running a business in Reynosa Mexico).
In New Zealand gun laws are extremely tough only selected members of the police are allowed to carry (even). Public must go through an very extensive check program and can only carry in the boot (trunk) of the car and must be going to the range or country to shoot otherwise you are fined then jailed for repeat offences. Automatic and big bore hand guns also are completely outlawed. Carrying guns in any form are not publicly accepted. Arms must be locked away in secure safes and ammunition keep locked away seperately.Result bugger all crime involving guns. We dont need to defend ourselves against guns because they are not there in the numbers to be a problem.
However I suppose when you cant trust the Government to protect you because they are off showing others what to do you have no choice so can you tell me what guns I need to buy (to protect myself) when I am in Texas next week shopping in the La Plaza Mall.
It is a bloody worry guys. You should see the guys in Reynosa Mexico
