About laws:
If we did ever join with america, I would not want laws to change. For example, the death penalty. America has it, Canada I dont know, but NZ and australia do not. If we joined with america do you think that they would try and impose the death penalty and similar laws upon us? I hope not.
Another example is the gun control laws. In america there is a huge problem with gun-realated deaths, as shown by Columbine and other numerous places. In NZ, the only people who have guns are the gangs (very few of those), and a few farmers.
And police shootings. How often does it happen in America? Very often I think. In NZ, one person gets shot evey 3-5 years by police. A very rare thing to happen.
Now the point? I dont want anything like that, or any nuclear stuff happening in NZ.
