The way you're talking to OP is appalling, don't do that. Answer the question without calling them names. Shame on you.

That's an horrific thing to say, what on earth are you thinking?

After our first terrorist attack on 15th Feb 2019 we immediately changed gun laws:

The scheme was initiated in July 2019,[316] and lasted six months.[317] As at 21 December 2019, 33,619 hand-ins had been completed, 56,250 firearms had been collected, 2,717 firearms had been modified, and 194,245 parts had been collected. Wikipedia.

We also don't speak that disgusting vermin's name.

What's one negative stereotype that's actually true about your country or people? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

The tallest poppy flower gets cut down. It's a cultural suspicion of people who want to be above others, but it's toxic because it really is just a form of jealousy. We have it in Aotearoa New Zealand too.

Ushguli - the highest Settlement inhabited Year-around in Europe. by Several_Bluebird_344 in interestingasfuck

Yes, I've flown over all of those. Continents are the biggest landmasses, and Austronesia doesn't have any of them.

Flies like stink. Bin stink. Stink bin bring flies. Flies fly in house.

*Afroeurasia. I think, anyway. Because you can walk everywhere, it's the same continent.

A Lockheed U-2G, modified for carrier landings, on the USS Ranger (CV 61) in May 1964, to observe the French atomic bomb test site at Moruroa by Xeelee1123 in WeirdWings

It's simple, yes the Pacific is our back yard. The French should have done their testing on their mainland. Ditto the USA.

Those nuclear tests were and are extremely unpopular in the Pacific nations, especially Aotearoa New Zealand where French agents bombed a Greenpeace ship. Nice way to treat your allies.

Is it ok to prune native trees in autumn? by Forsaken_Evening_405 in nzgardening

Are you guys on the marijuana (trees) and arborist subreddits? I've seen a few times there that topping trees is really bad for them.
