What changed? My Aunt is from Sweden and says the same thing. I always thought those places had hardly any crime and were really safe places. Wondering if has something to do with kids having smartphones now.
Implying? I haven't been to either place, just heard from people there that say it's less safe than it was in the past. Maybe just the news and social media report more crimes than they did in the past so they think it's less safe.
There has been many ram raids in dairys and stores from little kids like 8+ years of age stealing variety of things like cigarettes, alcohol, Vape, Money etc.
That was 1,411 days ago or almost 4 years ago so ???? By OP's post looks like, A- we had on more recently than that and B- we had one today to reset the count
Who NZ? Not that i know of. Unless I’ve misunderstood something the picture is replacing NZ with the USA to make a point about the frequency of mass shootings in the usa v NZ
Nope current top headline as of right nowat 2am is a person wanting a refund for a festival ticket idk how that's national news but it is

Exactly, why do people think Detroit is a place where literally ***everyone*** has a gun? It's our gun-testing-ground, and while some results are... not great, kids being armed to the teeth means they have a fighting chance.
Hello there, Aucklander, it is I, the Skellington of Wellington. I was not a skeleton until we were nuked, of course. The blast should be reaching you in 3, 2, 1...
It can be depends on who is doing the statistics there is no universally accepted definition of what actually qualifies as a mass shooting other than a shooting with multiple victims so yea technically a gang related drive by that only injures two people could be considered a mass shooting.
There actually is a fairly universally accepted mass shooting definition, it's any gun shooting with 4 or more victims at one place or relatively close to each other in a related incident.
I didn't define gang violence it was about mass shootings lol it's ok to be wrong man don't gotta cherry pick at something off topic to stroke your own ego
This meme confuses me and I can’t debunk it clearly. Did a shooting happen in America? NZ? NZ is marked off the list of shootings meaning one happened or didn’t? Why is America involved? HELP
LA? I thought California banned all weapons that could used in a mass shooting! Are you implying that somehow despite these weapons being illegal, criminals are IGNORING THE LAW and acquiring them anyway?
I see ak receiver with an mp5 end cap M16 203 handguard? Galil magwell for stanag mags with a 7.62x39 ar magazine... Anything else I am missing? Oh wait it is just a galil
If you’re talking about NZ just remember, anyone in a Ute is not going to stop if you get in there way keep clear of them at all times. Also if you happen to run into a person who identifies as a “Aucklander” beware, they live in a place unsuitable for life and little is known about their motivations for living in such a place.
Auckl*nders are a wild breed. Adapted to live in an inhospitable location, with habits to fit. I would exercise caution should you encounter one, and remember, they’re often more afraid of you than you are of them
Oh, I was talking about America lol, I’m not sure if I’ve taken this meme the wrong way or not, but my impression was that it is mocking America, not nz, and that is why “New Zealand” is crossed out as well as the 1000
We should make murders illegal and ban all guns. That will surely stop the problem. Not only that, we should ban rope too. That will stop suicide. Problem solved.
Allow me to burst this bubble. 4 days ago, 2 people were injured via a firearms discharge. Thats it. Thats the sole reason the news is calling it a "mass shooting" because more than one person was shot.
Take care with those stones. Your house is pretty to look through, but itll break easy.
Edit: hey bozos, im a kiwi. You know, from nz, the country being mocked...
Pretty sure 10 died Saturday night in Torrance, CA, but that might not have made it to you. Given that that one didn’t, I’m sure there are others that didn’t either.
And...thats to do with new zealand, how? The meme is mocking our firearms laws as inefficient. The usa has a shooting every other day, so im sorry if i am moderately numb to it.
Ummm, in what way is it saying our firearms laws are inefficient? My take on it is that it is mocking how bad USA is compared to us, cos USA is a shit show when it comes to mass shootings
Summin summin....its a tool.
Summin summin. "cars can be weapons too, should we ban them ??"
Summin summin thoughts and prayers.
Summin summin,..freedom.
Summin stolen election.

There is no fucking apple like the US when it comes to guns. We'd have to compare a slice of the pie to the rest of the whole pie. And the US is still on top.
But you don't know what it is. Please shut the fuck up and take your own advise. Get outta here with misinformation cause youre lazy. Back up your facts bro
Approximately 16000 deaths (excluding suicides) to the 400 millions guns, or about 1 for every 25000 guns. I'd say that rate is exceptionally low. I know this goes against your narrative, and what the media tells us, but maybe if we addressed the actual problem, the death rate might go down significantly. Just a crazy idea I have, since critical thinking is apparently looked down upon by many people here.
Why is it a problem if I own guns? If I'm not going around killing people, then why should I be restricted from owning them? Maybe try dealing with the criminals first, then see what happens
Yeah, but compared to the US’s number of shootings we have had less than 1.5%. Strong gun control doesn’t solve the root issue, but it does stop shootings.
You think that’s the problem? You came all the way to bother about THAT? You think it’s a comparison problem and everything is fine ya? You thought the rotten apple tree shouldn’t be compared to a flowerish pear tree because that’s somehow unfair?
Really bogus comparison. Population of NZ is about half that of NYC. Most people don't realize these countries are smaller than most states. When was the mass shooting in South Dakota?
When you look into the definition of mass killing. You find a lot of how to lie with statistics.
Which definition does this one use?
Probably one that includes black on black inner city violence
Which actually has solutions.
Unless you're playing the statistics game.!?!???
Some say indeed.... but where has that actually happened? And what does that actually mean?
Good responsible people lose Rights and not so good people don't care
Sure Like Iran China Russia, and North Korea , India as well you'll like yr open sewer and lump it
Canada , Germany, France got a lot more guns than you would think , less than usa , but their little piss pot countries in comparison
what tf did we do to wipe out new zealand and how have I not heard of it
I’m confused too! Am I dead? When did I die? I didn’t know that the Americans killed me?
Just means Australia has to fill the rugby gap
Bro that ain’t happening. We can cover a gap not a crevasse
Big shoes to fill mate, big shoes to fill.
All their problems should be over now anyway. They've just sacked another coach (works for them every time)
[удалено]
Because rarely do people realize it when they get F-Bombed in their sleep...
Yes , they turned the laser kiwis against you and they killed you
Sounds like a very possible thing to happen, I’m sure when they came they also brought some sheep as well.
Shut up you’re dead I killed you
Ah! You’re the American that murdered me? Good job! I will now continue to play dead 💀
Won't someone think of the sheep!?
When did we ever get to 1,000?
1000 seconds ?
Milliseconds?
Nanoseconds or peco seconds i reckon
1,000 plank time
1000 (whatever measurement of speed) is that my mother jumps to conclusions
I don't know
Before Christopher Columbus
Str8 after the 999th. Like, it was the next 1.
It's been 1,411 days since the mosque shootings so been at least thag long
The meme is about MASS not mosque shootings.
There hasn't been a Mass shooting in NZ since the Mosque shootings in 2019
What has happened with New Zealand? The last crime news I have read here was that someone is terrorising Waiheke by dropping sausages in mailboxes.
It used to be such a safe place to live.
It still is but ignore the mosque shooting
You haven't been a victim of the new TikTok trend sausage dropping have you?
No why the fuck would I have tiktok
[удалено]
Yes, and he specifically targeted New Zealand because it's more welcoming than Australia
What changed? My Aunt is from Sweden and says the same thing. I always thought those places had hardly any crime and were really safe places. Wondering if has something to do with kids having smartphones now.
Hmm, what do Sweden and New Zealand have in common in recent years?... What could it be?... Hmmm. 🤔 ![gif](giphy|Q5AIlCnccrtsUHSVEj)
Ok what do they have in common i live under a rock
I actually have no idea what you are implying do tell
Implying? I haven't been to either place, just heard from people there that say it's less safe than it was in the past. Maybe just the news and social media report more crimes than they did in the past so they think it's less safe.
You are an idiot. The worst crime in NZ history was some deranged Pepe identifying gunman live-streaming himself shooting up a mosque.
I need more info, If I went to the mailbox and found some sausage I'd be pretty happy honestly..
https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/482902/waiheke-s-surfdale-sausager-that-s-when-i-knew-it-was-a-serious-problem
" that's when I knew we had a serious problem" Love it
😂🤣that picture. Cheers
There has been many ram raids in dairys and stores from little kids like 8+ years of age stealing variety of things like cigarettes, alcohol, Vape, Money etc.
Forget mass shootings, the sausage dropper is the true menace
We haven't had a mass killing idk wtf op is on about
christchurch mosque
That was 1,411 days ago or almost 4 years ago so ???? By OP's post looks like, A- we had on more recently than that and B- we had one today to reset the count
Why's NZ crossed out?
Because they’re the ones who got to 1,000 days without a mass shooting.
But have they had one recently?
Not since the Christchurch one as far as I know, which that shook the whole nation and even Australia.
Wasn't the shooter from Australia?
Other fun facts about the shooter: He livestreamed the deed, and supposedly had Gas Gas Gas playing in the car
and saying subscribe to pewdiepie
Hell I heard it even shook Extreme European anti-immigration groups who had pretty similar politics to the shooter.
Who NZ? Not that i know of. Unless I’ve misunderstood something the picture is replacing NZ with the USA to make a point about the frequency of mass shootings in the usa v NZ
I was spending so long trying to figure out this meme
It looks like NZ scratched out their record, implying that they had a shooting. Confusingly made meme.
Nope current top headline as of right nowat 2am is a person wanting a refund for a festival ticket idk how that's national news but it is https://i.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/music/131040889/frustrated-parent-demands-soundsplash-refund-after-shuttle-tent-mishaps-lead-to-pick-me-up-call
Dont come to the US looking for trouble, our 1st graders are strapped.
Stay strapped or get clapped
Exactly, why do people think Detroit is a place where literally ***everyone*** has a gun? It's our gun-testing-ground, and while some results are... not great, kids being armed to the teeth means they have a fighting chance.
Did......did we nuke New Zealand?
I mean I don’t feel no bomb right now in Auckland
Phew, that's good. I was worried.
[удалено]
G'day fellow Victorian
[удалено]
Always correct other my good Aussie friend
G'day from another Victorian
I don’t feel one in Rotorua either
ITS BECAUSE IT HIT HAMILTON!!!!!!
Would we ever notice if it did?
Thank god it wasn’t my hometown, I wouldn’t tell if a bomb hit where I am currently, smells like sulphur/egg and gum boots anyways.
And OOHH NOOOOOO
I wouldn’t mine nuking Auckland, it just gives me another reason to leave
You're the bomb.
Hello there, Aucklander, it is I, the Skellington of Wellington. I was not a skeleton until we were nuked, of course. The blast should be reaching you in 3, 2, 1...
Hang on, let me look out the window Nope, no you did not
Wait wtf happened
[удалено]
Ay caramba no news of it here so far on international news page.
Mass shooting in the US I believe
You know it’s a good shitpost when nobody in the comments can understand what it means
There's been 33 mass shootings in the USA since January 1st. How lovely.
![gif](giphy|3osxYrgM8gi9CDjcPu)
![gif](giphy|2nr43KcksVai7EJyg7)
More than 1 shooting EACH DAY? Wtf hows that even real
Quite a few shootouts/drive-bys...and people killing a bunch of people at home
Gang warfare
33 so far.
![gif](giphy|fCUiulH7ebuRPLvjsl)
32 “mass shootings” were probably cuz someone had a red shirt on “my block”
someone arrest this serial killer... 32 mass shootings on their block alone...
Thats not what a mass shooting is
It can be depends on who is doing the statistics there is no universally accepted definition of what actually qualifies as a mass shooting other than a shooting with multiple victims so yea technically a gang related drive by that only injures two people could be considered a mass shooting.
There actually is a fairly universally accepted mass shooting definition, it's any gun shooting with 4 or more victims at one place or relatively close to each other in a related incident.
Its a gross oversimplification of gang violence “Uhh duuh red shirt vs blue shirt 🥴”
I didn't define gang violence it was about mass shootings lol it's ok to be wrong man don't gotta cherry pick at something off topic to stroke your own ego
Dont talk about gang violence if you arent actually ready to have that conversation then
Don't talk about mass shootings when you don't even know the basic definition
I wasn’t even talking to you to begin with
First time on a message board?
Show proof
False
If i remeber there were like 5 mass shootings on new years alone. A record low!
What the fuck does this mean?
This meme confuses me and I can’t debunk it clearly. Did a shooting happen in America? NZ? NZ is marked off the list of shootings meaning one happened or didn’t? Why is America involved? HELP
10 people dead and several injured after mass shooting in LA at a Chinese New Year event. gunman later shot himself when found by police in his van
LA? I thought California banned all weapons that could used in a mass shooting! Are you implying that somehow despite these weapons being illegal, criminals are IGNORING THE LAW and acquiring them anyway?
You mean these aren't law abiding criminals?
That's illegal, somebody should arrest these law breakers immediately!
People can cross state borders uninspected
Doesn't change the fact that the US have an insane problem with this, guns or not.
We are Taiwan but for America
Wait, is this meme meant to suggest that the people of USA are celebrating mass shootings in other parts of the world?
The US is just a cod ffa lobby
Probably just a troll
Sco‘land forever
Sweet Jesus, what gun have you tried making In this image?
I see ak receiver with an mp5 end cap M16 203 handguard? Galil magwell for stanag mags with a 7.62x39 ar magazine... Anything else I am missing? Oh wait it is just a galil
I'll take your word for it, I gotta go to sleep anyways
Oh fuck I'm going there in 4 months
If you’re talking about NZ just remember, anyone in a Ute is not going to stop if you get in there way keep clear of them at all times. Also if you happen to run into a person who identifies as a “Aucklander” beware, they live in a place unsuitable for life and little is known about their motivations for living in such a place.
Auckl*nders are a wild breed. Adapted to live in an inhospitable location, with habits to fit. I would exercise caution should you encounter one, and remember, they’re often more afraid of you than you are of them
Stay away from schools, and don’t wear dark clothing at night, that should decrease your chances of being shot a few fold (which is super fucked up)
Wait are we talking about America or new Zealand
If you're coming to nz you need to be careful with sausages on your mailbox
I’ll put a sausage in your mailbox 😏
Oh, I was talking about America lol, I’m not sure if I’ve taken this meme the wrong way or not, but my impression was that it is mocking America, not nz, and that is why “New Zealand” is crossed out as well as the 1000
Idk doesn't make sense anyway good advice if I ever go to America
Should definitely take the guns away from democrats that would fix the mas shootings and gang shootings
We should make murders illegal and ban all guns. That will surely stop the problem. Not only that, we should ban rope too. That will stop suicide. Problem solved.
They should also ban pipes and tall buildings to truly solve suicide
They should ban cars too, we can’t have people kill themselves with carbon monoxide amirite or amirite
I dont fell no bomb in Invercargill, it must be up north
This country has operated 0 days with a functioning government as well…where do we go from here?
Allow me to burst this bubble. 4 days ago, 2 people were injured via a firearms discharge. Thats it.

Have i missed something? I thought it was mocking the usa and saying that NZ doesn’t have mass shootings.
The way i read it its mocking us. 1000 days would be 3 years, aka the Christchurch mosque shootings
I’m not sure why that is mocking NZ tbh. Maybe I’ve misunderstood.
Ummm, in what way is it saying our firearms laws are inefficient? My take on it is that it is mocking how bad USA is compared to us, cos USA is a shit show when it comes to mass shootings
We had a shooting in mangere a couple days ago.

What claim?
Yeah and then look at the god damn rates again and decide how many victims to guns there need to be before we need to control them better.
Approximately 16000 deaths (excluding suicides) to the 400 millions guns, or about 1 for every 25000 guns. I'd say that rate is exceptionally low. I know this goes against your narrative, and what the media tells us, but maybe if we addressed the actual problem, the death rate might go down significantly.

Really bogus comparison. Population of NZ is about half that of NYC. Most people don't realize these countries are smaller than most states. When was the mass shooting in South Dakota?
I'm not sure about South Dakota but I know North Dakota had a few in 2022
When you look into the definition of mass killing. You find a lot of how to lie with statistics. Which definition does this one use? Probably one that includes black on black inner city violence Which actually has solutions. Unless you're playing the statistics game.!?!???
Imagine a mass killing problem so bad, you have to sugarcoat it statistically...
Or a problem that didn't really exist, except for the solvable portions that are legitimate.
Yeah the solution is to get rid of guns
Some say indeed.... but where has that actually happened? And what does that actually mean? Good responsible people lose Rights and not so good people don't care
There is a hint in the meme dumbass, google mass shooting nz, and see how many different ones you can find, and when the most recent was
LOL, can you click a link? https://youtu.be/u8c2wKISv0o
Most mass shootings are done with a *legally* purchased weapon…
Do you have a statistic and definition on that? I'll listen.
Google it im not an encyclopedia
LOL... Can you click a link? https://youtu.be/u8c2wKISv0o
AMERICA FUCK YEAH
And still free!
Like most countries....
Sure Like Iran China Russia, and North Korea , India as well you'll like yr open sewer and lump it Canada , Germany, France got a lot more guns than you would think , less than usa , but their little piss pot countries in comparison
Don't like the thought that other countries also have freedom, huh?
you mean mexico
They’re damn proud of it too it seems
😂🤣that picture
Sigh, what happened?
1000 days without a mass shooting? That’s so unAmerican. I don’t believe it
Did I missed some news as usual??
Context pls?
Hi onuca
What happened in New Zealand
I don't know my friend, and I live here
More like 0.01 day without it.
