@MN5 still, I expect AOS are often on regular duty also while on call for AOS, unsure of regulations around where they live vs thier 'base' like in some emergency response units, like a guy I knew who was a pilot of the Rescue chopper here, he had to live within 10km of the base to ensure they knew what response times would be.

Almost forgot , the exact same thing happened last year. This pos had a bracelet on after taking part in a hotel lobby. Killed his ex and her dad , he was out because he had a “hard upbringing”
I do sympathise with people who have had a shit upbringing to some extent. Ferals breed ferals after all.
But I certainly feel safer if these shitstains are in jail as opposed to EM Bail.
It’s very noticeable when I travel to Levin for work, I can pretty much guarantee I’ll see at least one, these fuckwits wear shorts on a cold day just to show the bracelets off !

Yeah a mate of a mate was deployed REALLY quick from Christchurch when Aramoana went down. Second hand story but basically he was raced to the helicopter in minutes while changing into his gear in the car. I’m assuming he lived close too.

@paremata Again the guidelines have to be called into question. If you acknowledge that someone is violent and has been for all of his adult life, that to me would stipulate custody.
Puata-Chaney was sentenced earlier this month to three years and five months’ imprisonment for the Sofitel incident, with the judge noting his lesser role in the shooting and his difficult upbringing. His mother was closely linked to Black Power and his father was a member of the Head Hunters, the judge noted, adding that the defendant left school at age 13 “and instead received an education in violence”.

“Lesser role in the shooting”
Jesus Christ. He was still there intending to cause mayhem wasn’t he ?

As for AOS guys I think it was @aucklandwarlord writing on here some years back that they’re a bit of a different breed compared to other police.
I used to know a few guys from the NSW TRG because they were reservists at 1 CDO. They certainly seemed to be typical for adrenalin junkies.

My thoughts exactly. He was an obvious timebomb.
The Sofitel shooting disappeared out the news cycle surprisingly quickly from memory.
Speaking of our media, they have a really bizarre attitude to the gangs. For example Denis O'Reilly is one of their go to mouthpieces, here is whining about prejudicial treatment at the hands of the cops then admitting to taking part in multiple gang rapes. The articles from 2016 and 7 years on they still give him glowing coverage.

Jesus, he is one mixed-up motherf****er.He’s a pos. The media have been glorifying this gang rapist for years.
The other media go to is Harry Tam who stalked and beat his ex. He makes $100000s doing “cultural reports” that give Ferals massive discounts on their sentences which very often bring them down below 2 years and makes them eligible for home D .
Law and order plus the economy are what hopefully cost labour the election.

All Police have firearms in their vehicles.
I've got a bottle of oil in my boot, doesn't mean I'm a mechanic.
Yeah because they just put the guns in there with no training….
If I may borrow some of that sarcasm - I see there's an armed offenders squad, what's the need for that if every cop has the training?
Presumably there's a middle ground, as there's little need for access to firearms if the only option is to wait until the specialists.
I'm sure there is, but a police firearms response to someone with a knife is different to a response to someone with a gun I imagine. Or are NZ cops only allowed to use a firearm in response to someone with a firearm?
I’m fairly confident they’re allowed to shoot someone if they’re not complying and advancing at them armed with……well pretty much anything.
But ( possibly off topic ) fuck having to be in that situation and having to make that call knowing you’re in a lose/lose situation like that.
I remember when that bloke was shot in Waitara 20 odd years and his feral family were interviewed and whinged that he was “only armed with a golf club”
I believe you're missing the point. Call comes in about someone armed with a golf club - on the face of it, that's a fuckload different than someone armed with a gun and first responders may be able to contain the situation, even if not trained in tactical firearms response. If there's a firearm involved, they're probably not going to go rushing in and likely have to wait until trained units are available.
I've never been a cop, let alone one in New Zealand. But common sense dictates to me that being made aware you have a potentially armed offender, the first GD cops to arrive would be trying to secure the scene, ensure public safety, rendering aid where possible and gaining intel.
Having said that, 11 minutes is a long time in the CBD.
Traditionally that has been the case and still largely is. Things used to be 100% isolate and contain but they are now training cops to 'go in' when it's an active shooter scenario. Training changed following an active shooter incident in the US where the local cops isolated and contained while the shooter was still going around shooting people.
The problem we face in Australia, and probably NZ, is cops are only likely to be carrying sidearms. They are no good when up against a rifle.

Yes and they don’t ‘carry’ them here. They still need to go to the car to get them.
That issue is still obviously a massive can of worms too
