why do we need any weapons to kill another human being?

peterbriggs THAT TOOK ONE SECOND. The same time it took to show that our Resident Fiasco is a revolting NRA puppet who cares nothing about the American citizens, nor any other citizens.

Maybe their thoughts and prayers are stronger than America's.

Actually the New Zealand government has, not Jacinda Arden

chicktobekind This is what strong woman looks like, she has managed to take control of gun crime within two weeks while other countries are struggling to bring order. DonaldTrump TheresaMay EmmanuelMacron learn something from this.

If anyone deserved the Nobel piece prize it Jacinda Ardern ... What a strong leader ... America take note it can be done ...if you want it !!!! GunControl StepUp

Well done

Good decsion to save her nation and to live in peace

Hi jacindaardern NZ civilian here. I know times are very bad but instant band on some guns without proper democracy is kinda dictatorship.. what if he injured people with a handgun? And what is the purpose of a hand gun? You might want to involve your subjects on this decision

She is a true and missed leader..

Shes doing good work

Absolutely correct. No need for these guns anywhere in the world other than armies

Just here for the comments

NRA, you paying attention?

This woman 👏👏

New Zealand wouldn't have been able to do this if everything there is marketised, and most politicians stand to gain from guns and shootings.

NZ lads don't use their guns as safety blankets either so they'll be a lot more grown up about it overall I'd say.

In the last 48 hours an Islamist migrant killed 3 people and wounded 9 in Holland in the name of Islam while a West African migrant in Italy took 51 schoolchildren hostage on a school bus, telling them he'd kill them all and setting fire to the bus to 'protest migrant policy'.

God forbid what will happen if anyone was to be killed with an ordinary kitchen fork..... Will she ban forks as well?

Easy as that.

Of course the State will remain well armed. Wouldn't want them being defenceless when they're rounding up people for wrongposting now would we?

Take a note, USA

Terrorist incidents and gun massacres are almost unheard of in NZ. This is unnecessary and isn't being done to protect the public. NZ was a soft target for a last ditch, desperate putsch against the US to make them impose gun controls.

And to think that realDonaldTrump couldn’t even move on banning bump stocks in the US after all the massacres under his watch...

New star of world politics 👏👏👏

jacindaardern CanHCNZ way to go banning all semi-automatic guns and assault rifles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A superhero for Life!!!!🦸‍♀️💪💙👍

Your turn Nobel

Forcing the Islamic Veil on women ? What a stupid women...

They need to fight this horrible woman really bad

Jacinta Arden é desqualificada, não foram armas que mataram. Na próxima vai proibir tijolos, pois alguém vai matar outros com tijoladas.

I’m glad New Zealand took the first step towards common sense legislation.

NZ would be safer without jihadi’s...

HorseFacedCommie disarms the populace over the actions of a foreigner. Pathetic LeftistLunacy BigSisterIsWatchjngYou

That’s my prime minister! 🇳🇿

She has compassion like no other

Wow amazing.. woman

I enjoy that she referenced all parts with the ability to convert semi-automatic or any other type of firearm into a military-style semi-automatic weapon'. Does she understand that 'military-style' just means matte-black or matte-silver finish?

Whoa whoa wait, so a tragedy happens in this country, and their government doesn’t wait 7 years (it’s been 7 years since sandy hook) without passing legislation to prevent future similar tragedies!? Amazing!

This is what moral leadership looks like!

New Zealand shooting: Ardern says she will never speak suspect's namePrime minister says she will do everything she can to avoid attracting attention to Christchurch attack accused This blacking-out thing is just weird and concerning. Crime requires scrutiny. Hatred requires exposure. What a woman! Then don't punish the vast majority of New Zealand's responsible, legal, law abiding firearms owners and sport shooters because of one terrible incident. Yes it was horrific, but they aren't to blame for the tragedy. Nor were their firearms.
