Most firearms owners will be aware that some independent countries are NOT anti-gun but actually require their citizens to be armed, and to be able to defend themselves and their homes .. eg SWITZERLAND where every citizen has access to the so-called MILITARY STYLED ASSAULT WEAPON.
Here is a video that shows something of Switzerlands preparations to keep themselves safe - of course most of that shown is 75 year old obsolete stuff - because the current preparations are 'SECRET' and restricted ..

Whatever gave you the idea that NZ is a democracy? I know it's supposed to be, and 50 years ago it more or less was. By 30 years ago it had become something quite different, and now it is a Marxisr autocracy soon to morph into a tribal dictatorship that would be quite at home in southern Africa. The Maori activists are already promising high levels of brutality for those of us that object...... General civilian disarmament is a pre-requisite of such a regime.... or at least the disarmament of anyone outside of the new 'ruling class'...

For the same reason the register will fail in its stated purpose and penalise only citizens who are not a threat to public safety, but could perhaps be one to a despotic government of the level planned by the current denizens of the Beehive.
A just government has nothing to fear from its people, but a persistently unjust one certainly does. Even easy going and tolerant Kiwis have their limits, and we are closer to those limits than at any time in the last 70 years.
