Unlike most nations we've managed to avoid arming our regular police force… until now. NZ Police cars will now have a stash of various firearms in the boot - available at a moments notice.
It's a clear indication of which direction a once largely peaceful nation is heading.
That being said it's worth noting that the police are still reluctant to use them.
And… we remain number two in the world peace rankings.
Which all leads me to believe I've used the wrong heading for this commentary. It should read "What a horrible nation…" because after all it's still the most beautiful country in the world - n'est-ce pas?
