My view as an atheist is that I do not want to hear any call to prayer; irrespective of the faith. And I'm sure that there are many Kiwi's with similar sentiments.

Semiautomatic "sports/hunting" rifles OK, semiautomatic "military style" not OK. That's before we get to collectible vintage firearms, including those that were used by militaries in the past. Chances are high they'll be OK too. From my reading of the proposed new laws anyway.

But that is the way in Morocco so I expected it and respected it. It is certainly not something I would like to hear ringing out in my neighbourhood.
