'Antis' Emotionally Disturbed BUT Motivated;

I planted 50 daffodil bulbs over the last two days .. a very calming process and they'll be lovely when the coming 'down-under' winter ends ..

The anti-gun movement has been shouting since about an hour after the fire lance was invented

Voices of The Anti-Gun Lobby invariably are neurotic, suffering from fear of the other - while happy to substitute lies & 'perceptions' for reasoned argument - seemingly incapable of learning fact.

Anything that some people do not understand - frightens them.

Here is an observation from Australian antique arms collector the late John Swinfield writing in 1978 .."The anti-gun lobby has always been with us but it has stepped-up it's activities to a new high lately, and if the responsible owners of antique firearms (and indeed modern arms) do not remain on the alert, we will see a diminishing freedom of ownership of those old weapons which have a great historical background because the unthinking 'do-gooders' do not heed the differences between old and new arms."

I have been subjected to a variety of ignorant neurotic personal argument over the last 62 years - ever since I was instructed aged 14 in the required skills to safely control and shoot a rifle at school in the Combined Cadet Force.

When wound-up and ready to go the 'anti-gunners' are even demanding 'pointless' knives ..

Of these many "anti-gunners" NOT ONE has retained even the most basic understanding of how a firearm works - what are the SAFETY RULES - or of the fact that it is not the tool that is dangerous .. but rather it is the insanity, - lack of control - or violent nature of the dangerous person who uses that tool to take life, - that is the danger.

2016 Bastille Day Killer Murdered 84 Using This Truck In Nice France:

Without exception these gun banners do not trust us with firearms because they would not trust themselves to control any such tool - fearing their own uncontrolled emotions and violent actions.

When reminded that they depend on armed Police & Military for their own safety .. inevitably they respond something like .. "Ah but that's different because they are properly trained and under control of the Government".

Themselves often being vegans - they see no need for others to enjoy wild harvested organic meats - as they function on factory farmed processed vegetation and grain.

Every Gun Banner I have been close to has displayed the early signs of agoriphobic emotional hysteria and willing ignorance .. If I were to be unkindly critical I might sum them up as DEMENTED AND DELUDED .. but sadly that same assessment might be applied to many persons promoted into positions of power.

These anxious & disturbed Anti-Gun Lobbyists do however seem to have emotional energy and a religious fervour that is sadly missing from our New Zealand shooters - who's dominant characteristic seems to be APATHY & a stubborn refusal to support those who support them - the unified shooters rights associations.
