ACT leader David Seymour calls police raid on right-wing gun owner ‘deeply disturbing’
David Seymour warns the Government’s gun law reforms have reached a “dangerous new phase” after a right-wing gun owner had his house targeted and raided by police.
[…] Seymour says is “deeply disturbing” and raises serious questions about how gun owners are being targeted.
“How did Police come to identify this person? Were his political views a factor?” he asks in a statement on Saturday.
“Whatever happened to the Government’s goal of getting rid of semi-automatics? Police carried out this raid to search for a ‘bunny gun’ used to hunt rabbits. Why aren’t Police going after the gangs and criminals?”
A statement from police said they executed a search warrant and armed officers attended as a precaution.
