🤬Didn't I also read that this Minister owns a firearms safety business? (raised again in The NZ Herald article on her conflicts TODAY 8th Oct) I read that it was currently not operating but could be resurrected WHEN she gets kicked out of Parliament... She is conflicted enough by her ties to gun lobbying in the recent past, and her apparent inability to do any minor research (or else is outright dishonest about things she should know), but being able to change regulations that would benefit her financially would be another level of unacceptable 😱
🙋Plus she was an advisor to previous Minister, Paula Bennett, and suggested Paula reject select committee recommendations around semi-automatic firearms, which would have closed the loopholes that were later exploited by the Mosque shooter (I can't use his name, but understand why you did 🫂) McKee is also Courts Minister at a time when the Coronial enquiry into this mass murder spree is about to start, which makes her attitude all the more egregious & unacceptable. (I had already read this but found a Labour Party release sent yesterday, 7th October, elevating that this has been a long standing conflict)
(🫂 I know what you mean about being connected because things happened in YOUR city... I got offered a job in one of my favourite cities but couldn't bear to leave after the Earthquakes 2010/2011 - felt like it would be akin to abandoning a sick friend instead of staying & putting my wages back into the local economy 🤷 Mosque murders just add to that deep connection, although it is still nice to travel around Aotearoa a bit! 😻)
Of any one human being she could perhaps be one of the most responsible for the March 15th terror attacks. Alarming she hasn’t reflected on that in any way, or if she has, she doesn’t care.
I work with a gun owner who thinks she's ace. Rolling back all these restrictions to his ability to make holes in things.
There's no consideration beyond nasty Jacinda having taken away his fun. I doubt that as a community, there was a lot of empathy for the tragic victims of this awful act of terrorism by one of their own: a legal gun owner with some terrible ideas.

She did do that, and she does own that.
