Amen!
They take their fairy tales far too seriously, methinks. Way too personally invested in their institutionalised fantasylands to be able to tolerate their zany belief systems being ridiculed.
They’re worse than royals, just.
Go you fkn West Coast Eagles!!!
“They take their fairy tales far too seriously, methinks”
They all do I think. Although there does seem to be a correlation between poverty and a propensity to believe in religious skywizardry…
Maybe those who can afford an education are more likely to question the bullshit?
I’d say that it’s almost certain that a good education is a gateway away from religious indoctrination.
A reasonable understanding of the world casts light upon the disparities between fantasy & reality.
Ignorance is a great petrie dish for religion to propagate itself in.
‘Dear Muslims, Christians, Hindus, and Jews’
Too right! I’m just about fed up with all the violence from Presbyterians every time someone criticises John Calvin.
Doesn’t matter if it’s Calvin, Mohammed, Smith or Tiboor…they’re all grounded in the same fabrications.
But yeah, the violence is a good opportunity for ideologues like iowahawk to go in for a bit of moosie bashing & christ promoting.
Muslim fundamentalists are boorish and possibly dangerous.
‘moosie bashing’
Guffaw!
YouTube tells White House it will not remove video blamed for sparking riots
Good.
A map of Muslim protests around the world.
โGo you fkn West Coast Eagles!!!โ
This is misdirected, and demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of the intricacies of football.
The Eagles are a false club, a corporate creation, supported by the most bitter and isolated people on the planet. These are the people who consider Subiaco and Northbridge sophisticated. Bizarre and unbelievable to those of us on the civilized side of the country.
While Collingwood supporters are mainly abusive bigots, and the club is now owned by corporate silver tails, it is not a corporate creation.
Therefore Collingwood is marginally preferred over the Eagles.
I’m glad YouTube isn’t removing it too.
But I can still recognise their ‘our god is better than your god’ pissing contest. ๐
Anyone but Collingwood…
Four out of the five remaining clubs have a misplaced sense of entitlement.
GO BLOODS!!!
Better add Sydney to that map . . .

I’ve changed my mind about teh Muslims who want to change our way of life They call all just fuck off. Especially after seeing the pic of a child in this image holding a banner saying
“Behead all those who insult the prophet” .

“reached out” ๐ Who are these people?
What a sad world a few wishful people have made!
Case for the State to remove the kid from that violent family I would think.
As a free-speech extremist I do not object to mere signs, no matter how “offensive”. (I do reserve the right to ridicule
parentsadultsmature peoplepersons of a more advenced age that would put them in the hands of unsuspecting children.)It is the actual violence perpetrated by these groups – claiming to be offended by others’ speech – to which I object.
I reckon incitement to violence is illegal, regardless of free speech. Anyone else using their kids to commit a crime would get it. I’m not necessarily advocating permanent removal but a line should be drawn. This country has laws and that conduct is incompatible with those laws and that has consequences.
I worry sometimes that our tolerance will be our downfall.

‘I reckon incitement to violence is illegal’
I think you’re right about that, however the incitement occurred earlier. The signs were just attention-seeking accessories to the violent rampages.
You would need to prove someone committed an act of violence as a result of reading a particular sign to support a charge of incitement. On the other hand, a preacher instructing a devout member of his congregation to rebel violently against a blasphemer might be a proveable case.
*to support such a charge of incitement
No, Tony, the actual commitment of a violent act is not a necessary ingredient to a charge of incitement.
S 11.4(1) Federal Criminal Code.
Okay, I’ll accept your learned advice on that one, James. ๐
(Then guilt in such a case would come down to whether a magistrate/judge/jury thinks a sign might incite someone, not that it did.)
I would think that the NSW Comunity Services might have a thing or two to say about the parenting “skills” of said child’s parents …
Click to access Basics_of_Commonwealth_Crime.pdf
Hmmm. Probably why those signs were placed in the hands of unindictable minors, then.
All righty then.
As a believer in the rule of law and in the principle that all ‘men’ are equal under the law, and now that the particular law applying in this case has been explained to me, I demand that this adult person be arrested and charged with the crime of incitement, forthwith. ๐ฏ
(I suspect if such a case were ever to come before a court we could expext days of legal argument about the meaning of “behead”, and whether or not the word was being used in a metaphorical sense. ๐ )
Police gas Sydney protesters
Forget all that stoopid rule of law stuff. According to Fairfax, it’s all the fault of the police. (You know who else used to gas people, don’t you?!)
I think a few arrests and a few visits from dhs are in order.
How’s the leftoid twittersphere on this topic, James? Quiet, I suspect.
I’ve got my suspicions why teh Left

Fcuk, you’ze are overly paranoid about ‘Teh Left’.
Radical muslims who commit violent acts are about as conservative & rightwing nutjob religious as a person can get. Have a think about that.
Then pause to consider that the behaviour of extremists doesn’t represent an entire culture.

Does anybody really believe this is about a video..come on folks..
‘Then pause to consider that the behaviour of extremists doesnโt represent an entire culture.’
The behaviour of muslim extremists represents in word and deed – the “entire culture” of muslim extremism, which is the only “culture” being criticised here.
It’s hilarious to see the brave critics of “sky-fairy believers” being all silent while these dark-ages-rooted fundamentalists go on violent rampages.
A Medieval culture goes on a riot because somebody offended their prophet. The entire culture is infected with hate and I respectfully suggest they will never fit into our culture and should be turned back at the border.
They don’t even drink piss for christ’s sake.
‘Late in the afternoon a lone man from outside the group shouted: “Shame on you for promoting murder in the name of religion.”
‘The crowd swarmed at him attacking him and sparking a second wave of violent clashes with police.
‘Police rushed to the man’s aide and dragged him out of the park under a rain of waterbottles, sticks and abuse.’

That brave man should be allowed to stay, while all the extreme fundamentalists (we know who they are) could be rounded up and sent to Van Diemen’s Land… until they purge themselves of holy thoughts.
I’m going to barrack for the Buddhists. They seem nice.
Do scientologists behead people? Most of them seem rich, so they probably get someone to do it for them. Scientologists are the Carlton of religions.
The muslims I’ve met in Malaysia seem like nice people and are accepting of other people’s ways of life.
I wonder why we end up with all the fuckwits here in Australia?
“Iโm going to barrack for the Buddhists. They seem nice.”
The Hare Krishnas are nice too. And they have a nice sideline in vegetarian restaurants too. I had lunch in the one in Swanston Street last week and it only cost $7.50.
I’m not sure about their taste in music though. It’s sort of like repetitive rap for easy listening.
There should be more beheadings come to think of it.
You know, for people who wear beige, or those grey vinyl shoes with the zips on the sides…
You know, genuinely offensive stuff, rather than just making a funny video.
What worries me is they keep saying they’ll be going to Paradise and I’ll be going to Hell. I looked it up and their Paradise has no beer or red wine. Turns out it’s the same fcking place!!
What should I do?
If only we apologized more…That would do it…It really is baffling that so many “educated” people still want to blame the West. I was surprised to see Sydney in the cross hairs to be honest but your government has been in a real hurry to import as many “non Europeans” as possible in the past 20 years..Seriously, if the West is going to import people can we do so based on who is more likely to assimilate, PLEASE…Not be driven by racial quotas etc..
Iโm not fond of sleeve tattoos or Abe Lincoln style beards. But I donโt think Iโm at the point of advocating beheading those types.
In what country and in which century do we have a midnight knock at the home of a filmmaker who is escorted to a waiting car by brownshirted officers?
Tony,
I know…it is really in Obama fashion I am afraid…The left are completely convinced that they hate us because of our actions, not who we are and if only we tried to “understand” their hatred more we could all come together and hold hands…So they go after a guy exercising his Constitutional rights…Really pathetic…
I think you’re right, Sparta.
(And before “someone else” says it: Fox News! Guffaw.) ๐
Tony,
I was just getting ready to mention the “battered wife syndrome” as an analogy…
Well, we all know it is the crazy Christians out there…They are waiting with jack boots and trench coats in the shadows, just waiting to make their play…LMAO
Ok…I realize this is a bit much but still interesting…
Anyway…the point I am making is lets just keep worrying about right wing Christians…
‘I was surprised to see Sydney in the cross hairs to be honest…’
Sydney has acquired the bulk of Muslim immigrants and they have settled in places like Lakemba.
Hopefully the teenage daughters will turn their backs on all this nonsense and move to the north side.

* not being all silent ๐
Funny how some have ignored the fact that I’ve repeatedly, over a protracted period, ridiculed all religions. Not just the poor diddums christlickerz; who want to question the legitimacy of other religions but don’t see the same gaping idiocies in their own belief system.
As if I think that beheadings & rioting over made up shit is reasonable. It stands condemned self evidently. Only the pantswetterz need to shudder about global caliphates & suchlike.
Hilarious!
Oh NOOOO!!!! They’re TAKING OVER THE WORLD!!!
What a fucken caricature.
And more odd laments about the dastardly left. Still haven’t noticed that the very worst of Islam, which y’all like to shake & quiver about, is conservative & rightwing in nature.
Or, probably, have noticed but ignored because it doesn’t make it into the FoxNews training material. ๐
And of course ‘our actions’ have nothing at all to do with the hatred. Why, who doesn’t like to see countries in the muslim world being invaded militarily? Don’t mention the wars.
No no, the sum total of the hatred is due to them hating ‘our freedomz’.
Can’t see the wood for the trees.
* note, I’m not attributing the entirety of the hatred to anything in particular, but the line being run is verbatim polemic crap.
“Still havenโt noticed that the very worst of Islam, which yโall like to shake & quiver about, is conservative & rightwing in nature.”
So you keep saying. Which part? The part about respecting individual liberty. Or the freedom of expression bit? Sounds more like authoritarianism to me.
Haha. Of course. Radical Islam isn’t rightwing or conservative at all. And Hitler was a leftist. So was Bin Laden etc.
“Funny how some have ignored the fact that Iโve repeatedly, over a protracted period, ridiculed all religions.”
Yes, and I’ve said all religions are legitimate objects of ridicule and criticism. It’s not much of a belief system if it can’t withstand a bit of piss-taking.
“Haha. Of course. Radical Islam isnโt rightwing or conservative at all. And Hitler was a leftist. So was Bin Laden etc.”
Is that Guffaw answer all you’ve got, or are you
ableprepared to explain the link?Due to the chameleonlike nature of what is said to define the right & the left in various arguments…I’m willing to concede that ‘rightwing’ won’t be accepted in this instance.
But it sure as hell is ultra conservative.
If you want guffaw answers, go back up & have a look at a couple of sparta’s linked videos. ๐
“Authoritarianism is a form of social organization characterized by submission to authority as well as the administration of said authority. In politics, an authoritarian government is one in which political authority is concentrated in a small group of politicians. It is usually opposed to individualism and libertarianism.”
Just as I thought! Radical Islam is ‘of the left’!
After all, the entirety of human kind’s horrors are.
That, and theocracy.

Unfortunately I’ll be off to work. ๐ฆ …but enjoy your Sunday arvo.
So you don’t think it’s ultra conservative! ๐ฏ amazing!
I wouldn’t tolerate Theocracy in any form.
“So you donโt think itโs ultra conservative! amazing!”
It could probably be classified as religious conservatism.
โHaha. Of course. Radical Islam isnโt rightwing or conservative at all. And Hitler was a leftist. So was Bin Laden etc.โ

I still haven`t seen `proper` evidence of how Mr-Rabbits marriage will be totally destroyed by Penny-Wong`s gay marriage or Bob-Brown`s gay marriage. Or anybody else`s marriage, Armchair.
“Doesnโt that show how intolerance, prejudice, bigotry and religion destroys people?”
NO………!
‘Doesnโt that show how intolerance, prejudice, bigotry and religion destroys people?’
Having mixed with gay and lesbian friends over the years I think they are little different to the broader community. Within this sub culture there will be risk takers, but that is also mirrored in society at large.

Thanks 730, I do visit that site from time to time.
I think she really exposed the deveny vs jensen fiasco on Q&A, with devastating fact and stats.
Defending Deveny:
http://thatsmyphilosophy.wordpress.com/2012/09/13/defending-deveny/
Far from being drowned out by Devenyโs aggressive interruptions, Archbishop Peter Jensen actually racked up a word count double that of Devenyโs โ more, even, than Deveny and the equally loquacious Concetta Fierravanti-Wells combined…
…Indeed! In terms of word count, Jensen even spoke more than the host, Tony Jones!..
…Devenyโs sin is to be an outspoken woman, fearlessly breaking the taboo that says the religious beliefs of others are sacred and should not be publicly attacked. This is a taboo which has kept the religious perpetuation of domestic violence, child rape, child stealing, third-world poverty and the evasion of taxes under the radar for centuries. I think itโs a taboo that has done way more harm than good.
I only wish there were more men with balls the size of Catherineโs…
“I only wish there were more men with balls the size of Catherineโsโฆ”
Lets have a look at your hero Catherine Deveny
“I do so hope Bindi Irwin gets laid,”
She said on Twitter in relation to an 11 year old at the 2010 Logie Awards
And on the same night on Twitter again
โRove and Tasma look so cute … hope she doesn’t die, too,”
In relation to McManus’s first wife, Belinda Emmett, who lost her battle with cancer in 2006.
Yes only Kitty could admire someone so vile
“only Kitty could admire someone so vile”
This, from someone who practically wets himself at the sight of Julie Bishop…..
LOL! ๐
“This is a taboo which has kept the religious perpetuation of domestic violence, child rape, ”
Child rape ……ay ?
Which juxtaposes perfectly with….โI do so hope Bindi Irwin gets laid,”
So……..which religion is Deveny then ?
Well I suppose if you wish to make light of Child Rape you could I suppose “LOL” if you are in that way unhinged.

Oh how could we possibly think that a satiric comedian who has researched religion and performed in her own show on it, could make any worthy contribution or social commentary on the values of children being marketed for profit. Fancy thinking paedophilia is more important. Fancy speaking out on the hypocrisy and harm caused by organised religion.
In Julia Gillard’s speech to the UN General Assembly:
“Denigration of religious beliefs is never acceptable.”
Wrong. Freedom of religion should exist side-by-side with freedom of speech. You should be free to believe whatever you wish, and I should be free to ridicule those beliefs.

Because KL is a fucking hypocrit with a infatuation with some stupid ideal of a reality that does not exist.
I didn’t say child labour was ok . I said if the family had to rely on it so as not to starve what choice
Is there ?
I have seen and been introduced to 11 rescued child prostitutesin Vietnam and Canbodia . I remember each of their names.
So don’t you 3 fucking morons dare try and tell me about prostitution or compare it to a child working in a factory so the family can eat.
What a fucking pathetic comparison

Talking of the past…
‘JOHN Howard has re-entered the culture wars, describing the Gillard government’s national school history curriculum as “unbalanced, lacking in priorities and quite bizarre”, and accusing it of marginalising the Judeo-Christian ethic and purging British history.
‘The former prime minister said last night that “our Western heritage appears to be so conspicuously absent from the history curriculum reflects a growing retreat from self-belief in Western civilisation”.
‘In a swingeing critique of the government’s national high school curriculum, which is being introduced at various levels in the states through to 2014, Mr Howard said a lack of proper perspective in history teaching would “deny future generations a real understanding of what has made us as a nation”.

“Did KL or you or reb address at all the Coles or Woolworths dilemma. ”
I’m sorry I must’ve missed that..
Is there a dilemma?
Do I need to make a choice between either shopping at Coles or Woolworths…?
I have in the past shopped at both, in fact yesterday I bought a loaf of bread from Coles and used the self serve checkout. No child labour involved in that transaction as far as I could see. But I do prefer the layout of Woolies, and they have a bigger selection of biscuits than Coles. But would you believe that only Woolies carries Arnotts Scotch Fingers? Coles only carries their own home brand Scotch Fingers, and frankly I don’t trust them. Would you? No I didn’t think so.
Neither Coles nor Woolworths carries those nice Scotch Finger biscuits with the chocolate coating on one side. Don’t get me started about that.
And what about IGA? I don’t know where they stand on child labour, but I’ll tell you one thing…
Those cnuts charge $2 more for a packet of Scotch Fingers than Coles or Woolies and that in itself is a fkn outrage!!

Go and consult your Utopian Textbooks if you wish. Just do so in the knowledge that the Reality of the World is different and if you ever do go to the a Third World Nation ( not your Phukets, Bangkoks, Ho Chi Minh or your KLs or Penangs) you might actually get it finally thru your tiny brains that in those places things will only change by millimetres.
As much as you might want them to change overnight it just aint going to happen. And the faster you realise that then then faster they actually will.
“And I see that flaws is still a believer in child labour, how quaint.”
Says one who just has no fucking idea
things will only change by millimetres.
And throwing your hands in the air and saying ‘shit happens’ only ensures that change will happen even slower, ifat all, which could be the desired outcome for some.
Or, you can take a pro-active approach, and try and change behaviors, so that we don’t end up with a race to the bottom

Itโs a difficult issue, simply terminating the income that people rely on doesnโt seem particularly humanitarian. They’ve come to rely on an income and so do their families.
Think of a family farm, the kids will do all sorts of work to support it, and Iโm not sure there is any movement to stop them from helping the family earn money (as long as they turn up to school from time to time). I suspect that children overseas have a similar attitude about earing money to help the family.
(“if you ever do go to the a Third World Nation”)
Well this hypocrite lived in one for a year and worked in a couple over a ten year period …
… expats working in third world countries generally fall into three categories :
Missionaries … godbotherers, spreading the “word” …
Merecenaries … there for the money, or career development
Misfits … can’t find work in a developed world country
Personally I went to PNG as a mercenary but as a training and development manager got involved in the world around me and the families of people I worked with … I now firmly believe the way out of poverty for people is education …
Children need the time and resources to learn … eg in Egypt we handed out pens and notebooks to kids … NOT, ‘baksheesh’ (money) … we had purchased them in London before we flew to Cairo … it was encouraged by the Egyptian government and tourist organisations …
‘Coles only carries their own home brand Scotch Fingers, and frankly I donโt trust them. Would you?’
And they have disappeared my favourite NZ vintage cheese and replaced it with a dodgy generic which tastes nothing like it. We’ll soon be sucking up soylent green and laffing about the good old days.
I suspect that children overseas have a similar attitude about earing money to help the family.
Well, you’re right and wrong … they work to exist but there is no compulsory education …
Think of a family farm, the kids will do all sorts of work to support it
Just in passing I worked as a child too, most kids do … at 10 I was peeling a hundredweight (50 kilos) sack of potatoes and making chips in a wet cold cellar in the north of England in winter … I delivered fish and chips to three or four mills every lunch time on my bike … then went back to school … see the difference … compulsory education …
third world countries don’t all (very few, in fact) make schooling compulsory … eg in PNG most kids that do go to school, leave by grade six …
(โif you ever do go to the a Third World Nationโ)
This hypocrite travelled to a number of remote hill tribes in Laos and distributed dual-language books and pens to children who don’t have much in the way of educational resources. I also donated books to the local school, which was just a basic hut.
simply terminating the income that people rely on doesnโt seem particularly humanitarian.

Sherrin will donate profits from Auskick to Manav Sehyog Society, a healthcare and education charity in Jalandhar.
(“Books are good/ Books make me smart.“)
I know that money will be donated, the point is that simply terminating income doesnโt provide assistance to those directly affected by the decision. They now have no money.
Thatโs not supporting child labour.
But the AFL/Sherrin have made the expedient decision, the donation is a feel good decision, a public relations damage control action.
Meta,
Big Brother Mouse is where I bought the books in Luang Prabang. We then hired a van with a driver to take us up to the hill tribes. It was about a three hour drive through some pretty rough terrain, but the welcome we received and the gratitude of the kids and their parents was worth it.
They now have no money.
But they have education. Which should lead them to a better chance of more money. Better than keeping them trapped in an endless cycle, wouldn’t you think?

All this earlier talk of JK Rowling
“I chose to remain a domiciled taxpayer for a couple of reasons. The main one was that I wanted my children to grow up where I grew up, to have proper roots in a culture as old and magnificent as Britain’s; to be citizens, with everything that implies, of a real country, not free-floating ex-pats, living in the limbo of some tax haven and associating only with the children of similarly greedy tax exiles.
“A second reason, however, was that I am indebted to the British welfare state; the very one that Mr Cameron would like to replace with charity handouts. When my life hit rock bottom, that safety net, threadbare though it had become under John Major’s Government, was there to break the fall. I cannot help feeling, therefore, that it would have been contemptible to scarper for the West Indies at the first sniff of a seven-figure royalty cheque. This, if you like, is my notion of patriotism. On the available evidence, I suspect that it is Lord Ashcroft’s idea of being a mug.”
http://www.abc.net.au/unleashed/33626.html
Maybe I should try and read one of the books, although, I haven’t been able to make it all the way through any of the movies.
Wonder how much tax, JK “actually” pays now? And if any is squirreled away in tax havens?

Most people around these parts generally are good humoured.

No need to get all sanctimonious about it, we all do what we can. This hypocrite lived and worked in australia’s own forgotten third world, aboriginal communities, believing we don’t need to go overseas to assist the needy.

I try to raise funds/items for them [and there’s not many in the community who will donate].
Think of a family farm, the kids will do all sorts of work to support it, and Iโm not sure there is any movement to stop them from helping the family earn money
I don’t think we can equate ‘chores around the house or farm’ by kids, before or after school when old enough and in their free time, to earn pocket money or ‘help out’ with forced child labour. Children working as adults, beyond their physical and developmental abilities, all day every day.
Oh and just on others home life . Except for comments over a safari suit when have I attacked reb or kitty or you TB over their domestic lives.
Quite often actually, I’m regularly derided by you as a communist or hippy or some kind of wacky person with no idea of ‘how the real world works’. A hypocrite or moron. You are personal and often abusive in your
argumentsrants.I donโt apologise for being angry. Iโve seen it firsthand and I donโt like recalling or being remotely reminded on it.
None of us like it, that is why we disagree with the status quo, why we want change for the better in society.
And if it makes you sick and angry, surely you would be an advocate for impoverished people receiving financial support to send their kids to school, not enforced labour? Clearly the market that you laud has failed these impoverished people. Do you really believe that making a few CEO’s enormously wealthy through child labour is improving the lives of these people? There is NO choice between starving and child labour, neither the kids nor the parents would voluntarily choose that life for themselves.
Thatโs what I sometimes have to do on a Friday yet you morons hate people like me.
No-one hates you, we might dislike what you stand for and defend, but that is your right. We morons show more tolerance toward you than you show us.
I don’t know why a difference in worldview should make you sooo angry, you come in wanting to blast people off the page as if we are somehow wilfully blind to your ‘superior’ knowledge of the world. When we morons choose to differ, you become incoherent with rage. You are so blinkered that you still refuse to even acknowledge where the ‘free market’ fails people.
People who believe they have achieved something with their lives tend to have a degree of self confidence, which can be perceived as a little arrogance.
Self confidence or self important?
Depends on how you measure achievement doesn’t it? i don’t know how you can define a person or human achievement on the accumulation of $. It is only important if you value wealth creation above all things, wrong thinking in my view.
To someone born without arms or legs, climbing a mountain would be a lifetime achievement, they might be poor in terms of $. Mother theresa [who I met in katherine nt] died poor and took a vow of poverty, is her humanity not an achievement? Is a public servant who toils all his life for the betterment of society a lesser person than a CEO?
If you have walked all over others, stabbed people in the back, got ahead on the hard work of others, never given a helping hand to people in need or generally behaved like an arsehole in gaining your wealth, then as a person, as a human being, you are poor IMO.
I only get fucking angry when shitheads from Queensland get in here and accuse me of disliking children because i have a problem with the BER
Do you have any children in your wealthy family who attend a 30 yo state school that has never had a hall … I do and I can see, feel and experience the change …
And not once did you say something like — “of course I like children … I’m arguing the cost … and the money could have benefitted the children by … ”
You still haven’t said you like ’em. BTW … ๐
then try and equate child labour with child prostitution.
BOTH are wrong and BOTH need to be fixed … it was in fact you that “equated” … the Queenslander (who’s not a shithead, BTW) … wants BOTH stopped … you did a shoulder shrug about child labour …
… your, “if they went to school they wouldn’t eat” … applies equally to both disgusting situations … the Monty Python Four Yorkshiremen isn’t a comedy skit … it’s satire about the poor working conditions in the North of England and how wealthy mill owners tried to justify the exploitation of the working class … and still fkn do (though not in mills – all gone)
I’m not wealthy … but I’m very comfortable … wealth has no interest to me … money is just a tool for your chosen lifestyle … any more is greed … one thing I do know … wealth doesn’t make you smarter, more, knowledable or more life experienced than anyone else …
As you may know already I’m more interested in the people and improving society …

No, just luckier, and it helps to be white and male because all systems are designed to ensure white males are more advantaged than any other in society. If you can’t be white, being male is next best and they will ruthlessly ensure it stays that way [climate change, oppression of women, gays, laws to enshrine property rights, use of state to oppress dissent etc].
And on values and achievement, a wealthy person doing a few good things for others less fortunate and lucky in life, out of a sense of charity, to feel smug and good about themselves and their contribution, is wrong.
They should be doing it because they know it is inherently an unjust system, that the lottery of birth has allowed them to prosper above others and it is their personal duty as a human being to install change. To try to make a fairer system, so a child born anywhere in the world can have the same chances in life.
Must confess, KL, I can’t agree with all that you write … (maybe ’cause I’m male and white?) ๐
… I was born into a very poor working class family … didn’t go to high school (parents couldn’t afford it) … graduated at 45 and retired at 59 … I like to think I did – through hard work … where and how I was born and lived in the world has a massive influence on success …
… some of my female friends are very succesful senior managers … my own daughter developed and ran two succesful businesses, while raising three boys – two now adults …
… disadvantage is a driver for some and a destroyer for others …
… one thing I really do believe in is education and employment opportunities … and I have had the privilege to see, twice, a business failing and taken over by the employees (male and female) and succeed .. and I think I’ve mentioned before my two female proteges who have reached for the stars (as well as raising a family)!
One thing that really annoys me is wealthy or successful people who inherit, saying how they made it on their own … and how difficult it is/was … I have a former friend who is a multi – millionaire that prattles on about that … (he lost me, when my then 10 yo daughter, asked him how he could afford such a big house … “because I work very hard” … did my daughter think then, that I didn’t?)
‘…and they will ruthlessly ensure it stays that way [climate change, oppression of women, gays, laws to enshrine property rights, use of state to oppress dissent etc].’
So its a white guy conspiracy?

Did I also say, that next to being white and male, or just male, comes white female in order of systemic advantage? ๐
So its a white guy conspiracy?
Glad you acknowledge egg, you only need to look at history.

Jones has apparently issued a humble apology
… and he will continueto do it!
Three hits and your out … where I come from … verbal warning of what is acceptable (recorded in writing), written warning that the situation MUST change (signed copies to each party) … out the fkn door if you’re that incompetent or deliberately rocking the boat!
If 2GB don’t act now then they are simply condoning Jones’ actions … the same as Tony Abbott … very quiet on BIG issues is our Tones … not a good look for a wannabe PM …
โThree hits and your outโ
Fine with me, as long as we donโt apply that rule to grammarโฆโyouโreโ
Jones makes an appalling vaux par and the rusted ons demand the monk’s head on a platter. ‘Where’s Abbott?’ goes up the cry!
Amusing.
Amusing.
Only to people with no sense of a “fair go” … even Andrew Bolt has condemned Jones … whether you like Julia Gillard or not … NO-ONE deserves such incompassionate bile from anyone especially someone like Jones …
Just who are his sponsors anyway?
As for you Kitty I have called you a raving lunatic bolshie North Korean communist but you can drop the fucking outright lies that I have ever speculated on your
male or female partner or a daughter or son or whatever.
๐ฏ
Who cares?
Long live the
speculationstereotypes.If I speak out about misogyny and sexism, I’m likely to be gay [not that there’s anything wrong with that anyway].
I had just written a para with details of my partner [male] and children [3] and then deleted it as they have no interest in this blog and they have a right to their privacy. tony tells nothing of his life, domestic or otherwise, do you speculate about his family and sexuality, is he even male? ๐
You are a lunatic Leftie to the same degree as you address me as a lunatic Rightie.
Don’t include me in your lunacy!
Yes I am an arrogant Cnut on a few subjects
Sometimes I canโt take prisoners at all
You are such a bully jaws, you rush in here and attack people that you disagree with in the most abusive ways, you’re even quite proud of it, yet have a huge glass jaw and sook big time when you get a bit of your own back.
Iโm almost out of live bait and we spotted 34 individual sharks late today
Any volunteers…
If you are unhappy about your domestic stuff being satirised, then don’t write about it. Why you feel the need to gloat about BMW’s and boating whilst talking of running people over in that BMW and feeding people to sharks [presumably tied up in a chaff bag] says more about you then us. I think you need to tune in to some relaxation music instead of alan jones in the mornings.
I make no apologies because I think you have nothing to be sooking about.
‘…is he even male?’
Ah…yes.
โโฆis he even male?โ
Ahโฆyes.
And you know this… how, egg? You’ve met him in person?
Mrs Jaws put a deposit on a very ice {sic} new BMW today.
Oh so your not all that wealthy then … my sister drives an alfa** ๐ … but she’s a smartarsed, decietful, Robber Baroness … cathlic protected, liar, cheat and artful thief …
** sarc alert … she does actually … why people think BMW’s are the symbol of wealth, I have no idea … just money pits … it’s not buying the bloody things its the maintenance costs …
Toni…
Well fark me!!
I go off and enjoy a rare premiership and when I return I find Kittylitter’s a closeted lesbo, Tony’s a Tigeress, and Alan Jones doesn’t think much of the PM.
Ah well….
Go you FKN Bloods!!!!!!
๐ฏ
What are you wearing, Toni?
George Pell’s sock puppet finally dropped the ball & logged on from an impostor device.
Figures.
“What are you wearing, Toni?”
A cloud of shame.
THE HANDBAGZ WERE FUCKEN AWESOME YESTERDAY !
Hawthorn started to believe too much of their Victoriacentric press & commentary.
The handbagz would’ve never done it without discarded Crow, Martin Matner, though. ๐
* but seriously, they were great! best performing team in the finals & consistent all year.
‘What are you wearing, Toni?’
A cheeky little chaff-bag number, light and off the shoulder.
“..You will never ever hear this bloke argue his ability, his virtue, or indeed his competence,.“

Does Mr-Rabbit have any.?
Jones, thinking he was clandestinely preaching to the choir, overstepped the mark…AGAIN.
My favourite Jones idiocy was his screeching about the government making the police prevent non-existent trucks from the Convoy of No Consequence [featuring bandwagon humper de jour- Tony Mack] from entering Canberra to join the ‘throng’ (guffaw).
I also like the Young Lib organiser’s outright denial…until he realised that there was recorded evidence of the stupid, taboo comments; whereupon he revised his apologetics to…”I didn’t hear it” & “you shouldn’t pick Alan’s comments apart”.
Hilarious.
Just came back onto range with my mini modem.

1)”Wealth” I think was not in relation to you anyway. That was about 730. But limited on downs here
2)James says you are a full on so I won’t go on about your social life. I didn’t know that since I only get limited downloading out here
3) I think sharks are misunderstood . 2 hours ago we threw 20 kilos of cattle and lamb offal overboard. Just to attract some action . A bit quiet tonight.
Do you have a nice swimsuit ?
Strangely as I type there is slit of action about
Andy muirhead jalied on child porn charges..

Former ALP ‘heavyweight’ Bernard Finnigan, from nearby Mt Gambier, is headed in the same direction, reb.
His name has only recently been publicised in SA, but it’s been well known around here for the last year or so since the police first raided his home & parliamentary office. At the time he was SA Police Minister.
I know several people very well who went to the Catholic School in Mt Gambier with him. He is on the record, pumping himself up as a ‘servant of Christ’ as he was elected to the Legislative Council in SA.
I hope he does hard time & lives every minute of it in fear.
Hilarious, Port Power are yearning to plumb even lower depths, today anouncing Ch7 dickwit ‘Kochie’ as their new president. I’ve also read that Kevin Foley, the most hated man in SA (and former ALP treasurer) is gonna be on the board. Like people don’t already have enough reasons to hate the Portscum! ๐
Funnily, they’re also sending a few discarded players to Richmond…to drag them down too. They can have Tambling back while they’re taking Knights also.

Its such as you understand my thoughts! A person to know a good deal roughly the following, just like you authored a guide there or anything. I am you could employ several pct to make the content household a bit, on the other hand as opposed to of which, it is exceptional website. An excellent go through. We’ll surely be back.
Good.
