'New Zealand gun laws face scrutiny after CHRISTCHURCH TERROR ATTACK' Fixed it for you!

This is what is needed & proof that New Zealand government has COOL Heads working on this situation. I Pink have immediate Family in New Zealand and I want the hot heads, Trump and his Chums NRA to not get in the way of more gun controls in New Zealand. Stay out of it NRA.

The lack of a death penalty there should face scrutiny.

It was terrorist attack.. dont just mention Shooting

Seeing NZ is normally peaceful I can understand why this never came in to question.

And so it should. :)

Apparently gun laws help protect us from violent hate-filled right wing terrorists. Thanks, nra!
