BREAKING: New Zealand Attorney General Announces Ban on Semi-Automatic Guns
The Truth About Guns ^ | 03/15/19 | Dan Zimmerman

Posted on 03/15/2019 10:24:28 PM PDT by Simon Green

From newstalkzb.co.nz:

The crowd in attendance at a vigil at Auckland’s Aotea Square cheered loudly when Attorney-General David Parker said the Government would ban semi-automatic rifles.

He warned of a global rise of extremism.

“There is a dimming of enlightenment in many parts of the world,” he said.

“How can it be right for this atrocity to be filmed by the murderer using a go-pro and live-streamed across the world by social media companies?

“How can that be right? Who should be held accountable for that?”

The answer is obvious: New Zealand’s law-abiding gun owners. They’re the ones who will pay for a crazed killer’s murder spree by giving up a piece of their gun rights and their property.

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern vowed she’d crack down on gun rights.

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern speaks following mosque mass shootings: "I can tell you one thing right now: Our gun laws will change.”

And with the Attorney General’s pronouncement, Ardern moved swiftly to make good on that promise.

Speaking to media in Wellington this morning, Ardern stressed that “now was the time for change.”

Ardern said five guns were used by the primary perpetrator, including two semi-automatic weapons, and two shotguns.

“The offender was in possession of a gun licence,” Ardern said.

American civilian disarmament activists are cheering the New Zealand government’s swift reaction.

All is proceeding just as the shooter had planned.

These Mohammadan apologists need to be run the hell out of office. That the PRIME MINISTER would don the headdress clothing of a slave to go groveling is sick.

Some Kiwi retirees where I live said this woman was gonna be trouble. They know their politicians.

Wearing a head rag was kinda special huh? Submit to their Sharia laws right up front. Some of their other laws might conflict with liberal notions but I guess you will work that out as you go?

….Kerry visited New Zealand on November 13, shortly after the US presidential election, and took part in "deep" conversation over how its government– which holds a non-permanent seat on the Security Council until the end of this calendar year– could engage in a UN-related initiative on the Middle East peace process. ... Egypt drafted the resolution that ultimately condemned Israel's settlement enterprise as an illegal operation contrary to the pursuit of peace with the Palestinians. The resolution also condemned incitement to violence by the Palestinian authorities. The Egyptians coordinated on the language with the Palestinian Authority, whose chief negotiator, Saeb Erekat, met with Kerry at the State Department on December 12. Israeli officials believe it was at this meeting that Kerry first relayed the president's willingness to abstain. The White House said on Friday that US President Barack Obama had not decided how to proceed until hours before the vote. Last minute, however, the Egyptian government pulled its own draft– due to pressure from the Israeli government, according to Western diplomatic sources, and after President-elect Donald Trump called publicly and privately for the resolution to be scrapped. The draft was then dusted off by New Zealand, which formally introduced the resolution for a vote.----- New Zealand meeting calls into question White House narrative on role in UN vote, The Jerusalem Post ^ | 12/24/2016 | Michael Wilner

Oh, my word - this could be London, England.
Or even DC, US.
Both have opened our governments in order that they might enter the ‘sacred doors’ and walk the ‘sacred halls’.

The Resolution
Let’s begin by clarifying what this latest resolution means. The kleptocrats, one-worlders, pedophiles and other petty criminals who make up the United Nations are well known for their anti-Jewish bias; the organization has been a hotbed of anti-Semitism for as long as it has existed (see Pedro Sanjuan’s splendid book, The U.N. Gang, for details). The U.N. is always writing new resolutions and reawakening old ones, to act out their ancient bigotry.
The [US] has a permanent seat on the U.N. Security Council, so a part of the U.S. Ambassador’s job has, for decades, been to veto all the stupid, shortsighted, anti-American, and anti-Semitic resolutions that his or her fellow ambassadors propose. Since the U.S. has the power to veto anything the U.N. proposes, for this to have passed proves that the Obama administration approved it.
More than that, however, intelligence indicates that the Obama administration was actually behind this particular resolution. The Democratic Party knows they could not survive voting for it, but if they let it be known that they would pass on the resolution and not use their veto, there would be nothing to stop another country from proposing it, so that’s exactly what happened.[see NEW ZEALAND] …—— ——— Sabotage: The US-Israel Alliance Under Assault from Within, Illinois Review ^ | December 29, 2016 A.D. | John F.

And at this time a DNC official, Alexandra Chalupa, was working with the Speedway Bomber Kimberlin to go after Trump.

Why him?

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern speaks following mosque mass shootings: "I can tell you one thing right now: Our gun laws will change.”

We're one small step away from that happening here, since already 100% of liberals think the 2nd Amendment doesn't apply to them and they can make it go away by fiat and there's not a damn thing anyone can do about it... Are you ready?

Wouldn’t it make more sense to announce a ban on mass shootings? Just sayin’...

The liberal mind believes inanimate objects create carnage.

Conservatives believe human suffering is attributable to human nature.

Guns aren’t and have never been the real problem, stupid.

On August 1, 1966, Charles Whitman, a former Marine, took rifles and other weapons to the observation deck of the Main Building tower at the University of Texas at Austin. Then with a bolt action rifle, he shot and killed 16 people and injured 31 others.

A bolt action rifle is not a semi-automatic. Why do politicians always go after the semiautomatic and automatic weapons?

Aside from this murderers personel self engrandizement, political leanings which are not even close to this extremism they insinuate (white) and his Charlie manson wanting to bring change manifesto.

New Zealand’s AG warned of a global rise of extremism.

Which their turncoat politicians alone caused themselves. You allow invaders into your country who don’t assimilate, are a burden on the tax payers and are class protected by laws you alone enact WHICH MUZZLES THE PEOPLE YOU ARE SUPPOSE TO PROECT This is what you get and now the hunted victims of muslim jihad are now the terrorist in your country and the muslims are the innocent victims

“There is a dimming of enlightenment in many parts of the world,” he said.

What enlightenment is he speaking about? Who is being enlightened? The enlightenment of the Muslim invasion around the world? the destruction of western civilization by a so called religion that is a war plan? A people that do not assimilate? Or the bigger plan of a new world order

They’re blaming white people on CNN for the NZ massacre. Typical of the racist Left to play the racism card.

Because only politically correct minorities are human.

Look for another false flag here, particularly with charges against Clinton-Obama cartel players coming in the next few weeks.

It was a True Flag in that the gunman said he wanted gun laws changed as a result of his actions.

The media selectively edited the narrative to replace the True Flag with a False one, which is what the gunman knew would happen.

Well, that was quick! Not a knee jerk reaction at all. Their Prime Minister is a massive Liberal anyway. The script for this event could not have played into the globalist, leftist, UN agenda any more than it has.
