Destiny Church's Brian Tamaki says police seized his guns
if brian tamaki was targeting white business owners or christians he’d have been shut down years ago instead last night he told his followers that sikhs, hindus and muslims should be “purged” from NZ and mosques and temples burnt down NZF and ACT have both directly contributed to this environment
kyle19and our media & institutions have consistently failed to identify the way this environment operates and the ways in which more “mainstream” political leaders use stochastic terrorism to make things worse tamaki is just ONE of the leading edges of coordinated far right acceleration, its intentional
Kieran8police also should also be looking closely at every single destiny member with a firearms licence. should be but won't.
Lew7Eager to see whether either of those parties' leaders (including one newly-minted deputy leader) have owt to say about this situation Particularly interesting given the police complaint recently laid by Mankiat Singh, the ACT candidate for the Papakura electorate where (I believe) the Tamakis live
Gun ownership in NZ is a privilege, not a right. And if your public language gets ever more so concerning over a period of time, the police are fully within their role to revoke that privilege for the safety of others. Yes, what you say has consequences. www.rnz.co.nz/news/crime-a...
Dr Sarah Hendrica Bickerton 🏳️🌈15Honestly I'm not entirely happy it took this long for even some consequences under the law to occur.
Perilous Poozer5Huh, does bro even hunt though? Cos unless you’re doing target sports you’ve got no other business having firearms in NZ anyway!
Whatkonnerth1Absolutely. More of this please.
Correct procedure When an cult leader with a history of inciting his cult members to illegal action starts to escalate into overtly violent extremist rhetoric, he is presumptively no longer fit & proper And the unlicenced firearm is just a cherry on top www.rnz.co.nz/news/crime-a...
Lew9Anyway here is the Arms Act criteria. Seems pretty clear
Matt from Ōtautahi2I missed the unregistered bit. Hopefully that's the final nail in the coffin to make the ban stick.
James W2Might have something to do with that race war he keeps talking about every time someone puts a microphone in front of his big mouth
bmrmb2Is he saying that he might have a firearm in his possession that he is not licenced for? Oh dear Brian. The gift that keeps giving.
Snugbucket1I'm shocked he was allowed them in the first place given his history...
Thankful for this news ⤵️ "Destiny Church's Brian Tamaki says his guns have been seized by police" Scary thought that a bigot in Aotearoa New Zealand, who preaches violence should have guns, especially with his threats against mosques and temples. #NZpol www.rnz.co.nz/news/crime-a...
Katya5I suspect quite a few of his supporters have guns and remain a threat
Matt5This is good news, but should have been done years ago. He should never be allowed to hold a firearms licence again. He is not a fit and proper citizen to be allowed that privilege.
KoBettyAhau ♥️🤍🖤 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️1Yes I was horrified to think of him with guns
D Jukic She/her1It’s unbelievable, given his rhetoric, that Tamaki was able to have guns in the first place and I’m glad they’re gone.
