So, New Zealand banned semi-autos. Not a long way from banning semi-auto handguns...

Now the bigger issue remains that societies, in NZ and worldwide, need to be more sensitive to people promoting or planning extremism. As people, we need to avoid a scenario when maniacs try to divide society with fear, inciting distrust, hate-mongering. That's what the nutcases behind this slaughter of innocents want. Terrorists like this are the same everywhere, regardless of their "cause" and motivations. We shouldn't bend our backs in front of killers. Victims matter !

I'll only say this: The most fervent gun fans are all outraged about the prospect of banning semi-automatics, until they're on the receiving end of some crime committed by a semi-auto, with their lives at stake. Then they tend to quickly change their outlook. Humans are hypocrites like that. 50 dead innocent people is not worth someone's gun hobbies, and I'm surprised it took the NZ gov this long to ban assault rifles. Assault rifles are not for civilians, period.

Same here, Nightcrawler. Can't say I didn't do my part as a citizen: I wrote to our EP MPs, the ones most likely to vote against (there were plenty of those), and I stressed that reforms of this sort need a longer and more open dialogue between the public and the parliament, and that the whole preparation process should be free of any lobbyism. In the upcoming elections, I won't support those who voted for these changes, but neither will I vote for those who bash the EU for populi...

This is something individual member states will implement on their own. The EU has not ordered and cannot order everyone to implement it. All enforcement can only be by individual member states, not by the EU itself. Any implementation will take years, if at all. I wish the negotiations had gone on for a few months more, all of this could have been avoided. But in the long run, this is bound to backfire and I think it won't be really enforceable on a legal level. And Black Arrow is right...

Now I'm sad. TheMasterFoundry has cancelled his channel, even though he had some very good TDM content there. His Training Mission playthrough was probably the best, bar none. A pity we've lost those vids.

Ambients database completed. I'll continue to work on the other not yet finished databases and vocal script overviews. We already have a lot more non-tutorial documentation archived than just half a year ago.
