The posters on this site (expatexposed) are waging an interminable war against everything kiwi.
But this is an alltime low. Maybe they havn't heard of kamikaze pilots or the treatment of Pow's resulting from the unquestioning blind loyalty to the Japanese God-Emperor.

1188022 2011-03-21 08:12:00 sounds like a bunch of people need to put up or shut up.
most city's have a voluntary rescue team, go join up, they always need more people with the guts to get in and save others.

it's easy to sit back and knock others when your on the internet, it's a lot harder to get out there and do the hard yards.



FYI, I did 10 years of rescue work so I have "been there and done that", though not to the level of Japan's situation.

1188025 2011-03-21 10:32:00 Seems more than a little biased, but I'm not really a fan of living here myself. It always feels like there's so much you can't do in NZ, at least not without a very very deep wallet.

I mean data caps on the internet? Really, that's so last decade.
That said, I am a fan of the metric system and alot of the people here.

Have you lived anywhere else? The grass isn't always greener on the other side, try the UK many millions of people crammed into one tiny country, economy shot to hell, America economy shot to hell, idiots who think having the right to own a gun means they should be able to park a tank in the garage and then shoot the neighbours and very high rate of taxation compared to here, Australia just about anything with teeth can kill you from ants to crocs.

I have lived in various places before coming here and I consider NZ to be way nicer to live than anywhere else I have been

1188028 2011-03-21 20:05:00 I disagree on the gun ownership comments in USA.
They have a constitutional right to bear arms and I wish we had it here, I do however think a handgun ban would be ok in NZ.
An armed citizen need never fear the state

Agreed, but upon criminal conviction lose the right to own arms which should extend to everyone living on said premisis.

Because Aunty Helen would turn into Saddam and Little John into Gandalf? :p

1188030 2011-03-21 20:16:00 I think that our firearms laws are adequate and I would not like to see New Zealanders given the right to bear arms. We have a vetting system to ensure that a person is a fit and proper person to own a firearm. Bobh (5192)
