Effective Sept 16th Florida Will Fine Any Organization or Business That Attempts to Discriminate Based on Vaccine Status, $5,000 Per Incident

Is that strictly legal?
Dover’s vetting policy. Colourised for enhanced entertainment.
Yes, it is a bit like TheirABC, with the exception of the glorious bar-fight between Arky and JC. So uncouth! I enjoyed it thoroughly.
There seems to be a consensus about genteel behaviour and censorship to keep things ‘nice’ which I don’t agree with. Also, a lot of people prefer style over substance, apparently.
That said, Bird is a noxious pest whose thread-bombing is a PITA. Mind you, if you deleted Rosie’s comments here, the total would go down considerably. Still, I prefer the default to be in favour of freedom of expression, and note that Adam has deleted several comments which well and truly crossed the line.
Good luck to all except Monty’s, is my view.
Monty still pops in from time to time eh?
Loves rakes. 😛
Laughed out loud, Calli at 2.45pm. Ta.
Mr. Rafael Epstein cuts off a phone call the instant he realises the caller is pointing out “we’re not all in this together, & especially so for the ABC”.
<<Caller "Mark" told the ABC Drive host he wanted him to stop using the phrase “we’re all in this together” in relation to crippling Covid lockdowns.
“The only time I actually want to hear that is when a politician or member of the media says: ‘I’m going to give half my salary to someone who just lost their house’, but we’re never going to hear that, are we?” he said.
“So what I’m saying is please. Can you please just tell everyone in the ABC, and whoever else, stop saying it. There’s enough stress. I live in my bloody car now. I live in my frigging car! I’ve lost everything,” he continued.
He went on to point out the inequity between those who’d lost jobs and income, and those who had been able to continue working with little interruption during the pandemic.
“And then we get the ABC, and I’m quite sure you guys aren’t losing any money. Of course you’re not, and you’re earning big dollar,” he said.
“It’s an insult to hear ‘we’re all in this together’.>>
Actually Mark, in the middle of lockdown last year, the ABC staff voted themselves a pay rise.
The mandatory vaccinations for the US armed forces has nothing to do with COVID19.
It’s the biggest selection process/filter that has even been applied.
Scary shit.

Australia is now only 2 million first doses away from achieving the 70% first dose vaccination coverage. Every vaccination brings us closer to the freedoms we enjoy.
So let’s get this done by getting your jab today!

4 million extra Pfizer vaccine doses will begin arriving in Australia in days after we secured a swap deal with the UK.
This means millions of Australians will now be able to roll up their sleeves and get vaccinated sooner as we follow our National Plan to safely reopen.

Australia. Is. Over.
I was sympathising that Adam was the one who had to deal with Bird’s disfunction and the ungodly alignment of Groog’s pathological need to have his existence acknowledged with his discovery that he is more noticed for his stink than is charm.
You can be rude to the cops as long as it’s not abusive. You need to be careful and remain inside that fine line.
Last week I was accosted by the arseholes. I was parking my car and on the (hands-free) phone at the same time. A fat slob of a Vippoler approached the front of my car and began to tap in my registration on an Ipad. About a minute later he walked away to join the rest of the lazy slobs a little further down the street. I got out of my car and approached the slob/slobs. I asked him what had he done with regards to my car and what he was checking. He replied that he was seeing if I was a local and indeed I was.
Slightly raising my voice, I told him I considered what he’d done to be very intrusive and I also suggested to the 5 or 6 of them that I looked like that had nothing to do and if they liked their job. One said he did – loved it in fact. I suggested it didn’t surprise me. I also suggested to them that they looked completely out of shape and they ought exercise more and eat healthy , non-fattening food. They walked away and so did I.
Don’t abuse them, just be rude to them and tell them how much Vicpol is despised as an organization as they’re considered to be Dan’s thugs.
Has anyone else notice the various Newscorpse outlets ramping up the attacks on the Vax hesitant? Labelling anyone who doesn’t fall in line “morons, unhinged, desperate, despicable, lacking morality, low IQ and conspiracy theorists”?
The end can’t come soon enough for legacy media.
I also suggested to them that they looked completely out of shape and they ought exercise more and eat healthy , non-fattening food.
JC, those salad dodgers have just flagged your rego as one to stop at every opportunity.
I don’t want niceness or politeness particularly. What bores me is infantile abuse. I can enjoy it when it’s witty, but I come here for information and argument. I live in hope that someone will force me to change my mind. Failing that, a good laugh.
Nothing will happen, but geez Pony Girl has been caught out in a bunch of lies this week.
Yes indeed JC. I believe VicPol to be one of the most corrupt organisations in Australia, possibly broader than that.
After all the Pell crap went down and justice was done, any sane and reasonable government would have called an inquiry into “what went wrong.” Not Victoria, Dan knows the extent of their depravity and wouldn’t want anything unearthed. Even the bastards that keep the bastards honest are corrupt. IFAB or whatever the hell they’re called (IFIB?)
From Rory’s twitter.
Lock down 69 days.
NSW has had 10,180 deaths.

That’s an enormous amount of people who weren’t able to attend funerals or comfort the bereaved in person.
They could, but if they do I’ll lawyer up and go after them for harassment. Trust me, I would too. There’s no organization I fucking hate more than Vicpol.

They’re bordering on obese.
Although, having said that, I can’t say I’m the biggest fan of the plod in Perth either…
Anyway, OT, but you have to blame the Left for all of the misinformation going on at the moment and people not knowing what to believe or who is an authority anymore. Such are the fruits of postmodernity: Proudly brought to you by the Left.
(Do you spell it postmodernity, post modernity or post-modernity or is there no truth?)
Really Doc? You think you could say be persuaded by Fatboy or Stepford from Brisbane to change your mind? Wow!
“Mind you, if you deleted Rosie’s comments here, the total would go down considerably.”
Mind you, if you deleted Bird/Thor’s crap on Dash Cat, the total would plummet.
BTW, it isn’t a competition….some people have a preference….and that isn’t a crime.

Congratulations Father of the Year. I’ll let you guess!
Rather a low probability, but Dover has given me occasion to revise my position once or twice.
Exactly. JC is now a marked man. If JC was in some beat up old jalopy they probably would have found an excuse to charge him with something there and then.
Does this ridiculous man really believe he inspires us? That when he says “Let’s go!” that people bound to their feet like excited retrievers that have just seen their owner grab their lead and head to the front door?
ScoMo, you are in your position because of internecine jostling of party of misanthropes, goblins and trolls, and your party is in power because voters are compelled by law, under threat of being fined, to queue up at a school and cast a vote for either your party or another one of near identical abomination.
Your polls that have you ahead or behind Albosleazy does not mean we think you are a good bloke. It is like people having either diarrhea or the runs – the only difference is the name.
I know. Imagine them chasing a slim crim. There’s really too many cops for the level of crime, I reckon. Most of their crap these days is fining people with speed cameras or setting up on main arterial roads to see if people are rego compliant as we no longer have rego stickers.
Lat year, I was was stopped at 11 am for a fucking breathalyzer on a week day and there was a whole posse of them. They’re the pits and as unionized as all fuck. Just despicable scum.
A while ago I read the stat that while the two northern states have a ratio of 1 cop to 500. Victoria is 1 to 300. You could easily defund these scumbags, getting rid of half the fuckers and the other half made to actually work and fight crime.
So, I’ve got a question and I’m not sure if it is politically correct but…
How does the Paralympics determine who is disabled and who is not (and to the extent of their disability?). Like, can a one legged swimmer compete a disabled person with one arm or with multiple sclerosis? And what if their MS hasn’t completely manifested itself yet?
“ScoMo, you are in your position because of internecine jostling of party of misanthropes, goblins and trolls, and your party is in power because voters are compelled by law, under threat of being fined, to queue up at a school and cast a vote for either your party or another one of near identical abomination.”
A perfect description ML.
Lysander.. Lol
I’ve always wondered that too. Like if a dude is missing both legs and is in a swim race with someone with both legs and one arm, how can you tell whom wins.. like really wins.
I have a funny story that was told to me a few years ago and it’s about a dude who’s in the current Paralympics. He’s in a wheel chair and I think he’s missing both legs from birth. Anyway we were told he was actually seeing a girl who is the daughter of our friends’ friends (who we knew also). The girl was really decent looking, and from what we were told .. like really good looking. He broke off with her because he was “busy with his life” and told her he wanted to meet other sheilas. This is a fucker in a wheel and has that attitude. Incredible!
Clare Chandler, LNP senator from Tasmania on the scourge of the alphabet people. It is ironic though that fembots have been leading the charge against the patriarchy and now they’re being snookered by chicks with dicks:
Private spaces for women and girls used to be the norm in Australia.
Female-only spas, gyms and sporting teams were widespread, and as a nation we valued the importance of these spaces to keep women and girls safe.
But as Aussie entrepreneur Sall Grover knows all too well, that’s not the case anymore.
Sall was a Hollywood screenwriter, living her dream in the US when sexual harassment and assault became a regular part of her work day: you can read about Sall’s heartbreaking experiences here.
Sall realised she needed a strong female support network in her life.
And with that Giggle was born, the social media app for women only.
Giggle was designed to give women “choice, control, consent and connection”, and is specifically designed to be female-only. We all know about the dangers of people pretending to be someone they’re not online.
But, of course, the radical ideologues and trans activists weren’t going to stand for that. They came for Sall and have directed horrific abuse and threats towards her.
Despite this, Sall persisted. So now, they’re employing the familiar tactics of cancel culture to go after Giggle by convincing the major US-based fundraising platform, KickStarter, to cancel its support for the app because it contained “hateful or offensive content that fails to meet Kickstarter’s spirit of inclusivity by promoting discrimination, bigotry, or intolerance towards marginalized groups”.
“Giggle is designed to give women choice, control, consent and connection.”
How on earth could anyone consider that to be hateful or offensive?
Unfortunately, this woke madness is getting worse across the entire Western world.
In Scotland, five police officers showed up to a pub to remove a group of women – not because they’d done anything wrong but because the trans-woman bar manager recognised them as feminists (or TERFs as the bar manager referred to them on Twitter, claiming “You dinnae belong in pubs… or society”).
“It’s quite something when women having a drink with friends are considered the most dangerous of clientele,” said a spokesperson from For Women Scotland.
How mad is the world getting when the police show up in force to respond to complaints that women who believe in sex-based rights are having a quiet drink in a pub?
Even right here at home the war on women has become core business for taxpayer-funded bureaucrats. But thanks to your support, we’re speaking up and fighting back.
Last week, it emerged that the Federal Department of Health had rewritten a guide to COVID-19 vaccinations for pregnant women by deleting the word “women” and replacing it with “people who are pregnant, breastfeeding or planning pregnancy”.
This was another clear example of how this woke, anti-women ideology has infiltrated Australia’s public service.
Today, success! The guide has been re-issued and once again refers to women and mothers, as it should.
Your tip-offs about how, why and when unelected bureaucrats are promoting this dangerous and unscientific propaganda are having a real impact, and the dam wall is starting to break.
Wow JC. At least he’s got balls! 😛
I know, like an incredible attitude, right?
“Last week, it emerged that the Federal Department of Health had rewritten a guide to COVID-19 vaccinations for pregnant women by deleting the word “women” and replacing it with “people who are pregnant, breastfeeding or planning pregnancy”.
This was another clear example of how this woke, anti-women ideology has infiltrated Australia’s public service.”
Note how we don’t see descriptions such as “people with prostrate cancer or “people with scrotum cancer”. This language is sinister, it’s insidious and it’s all about the erasure of woman/women. It’s pure unadulterated misogyny.

Watch live: Auckland supermarket stabbings a terror attack, Prime Minister says

Ed Berry has a new PR paper showing the increase in atmospheric CO2 is primarily natural and therefore there is fuck-all humans can do about it; even if CO2 did control climate, which it doesn’t.
Abstract: The natural carbon cycle specified by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has consequences. It supports a physics carbon cycle model that calculates a “true’ human carbon cycle. This “true” human carbon cycle contradicts IPCC’s human carbon cycle and contradicts IPCC’s assumption that natural CO2stayed at its 1750 level while humanCO2caused all the CO2increase. It shows human CO2has added only 33 ppm to the atmosphere as of 2020, which means natural CO2has added 100 ppm. It shows if human CO2emissions stopped at the end of 2020, the human-caused CO2increase would fall from 33 ppm to 16 ppm by 2040, and to 10 ppm by 2100, showing there is no climate emergency. It shows how increased surface temperature and deep ocean overturning can independently add 100 ppm of CO2to the atmosphere to explain the rise in natural CO2. It shows carbon from net land use change flows rapidly to the deep ocean, leaving little carbon in the atmosphere. Finally, the D14C balance level has remained near zero even as the 14CO2 and 12CO2 levels changed, which shows the ocean is the primary source of the natural 12CO2 increase.

I also seriously doubt it, Bushkid. I told him I was horrified that he had been forced into it and said so. Who the hell knows who was actually doing the vaccinating either? These guys are there in the early hours and on tight schedules. Asking the right questions takes time they don’t have.
You need someone to ‘force’ you to change your mind?
Right.
In other news, this ‘we’re only x jabs away from Nirvana’ stuff is ludicrous. Public health is now just like a telephon on TV. Indeed. it’s surprising that some of the emojis who advise our betters haven’t suggested it.
“The end can’t come soon enough for legacy media.”
Agree but it will take a while…because governments will prop them up financially. They’ve already done this in Canada.
Ballsy. Ballsy, but stupid. How easy is it to boycott a pub into bankruptcy when they take a decidedly minority position?
Especially when a pub relies on local clientele who all talk to each other.

Mind changing? Here’s a dude who really did change my mind at the depth of the GFC and he’s so right. He hated Trump with a passion which is only seen in academics (he’s one). But, that’s his bling spot. He great on macro-economics which is essentially monetary policy.
He’s written another book.
Ignore what he’s said about Krugman. Even though Krugman has become a limp dicked political pundit, he was once a pretty decent economist.
I believe “MoneyIllusion” was the main influence moving monetary policy in the US and elsewhere towards his thinking.

Vaccinated or unvaccinated, nobody would sit with the prick or buy him a beer.
Canada is fascist then. Government sanctioned businesses are a cornerstone of fascism, and government controlled media, directly or by influence by funding is another one. Two cornerstones of fascism in a single act of bastardry.

I also understand that church leaders in the UK have told Johnson and vo that they will not be turning away the unvaxxed when the whole “passport” no jab no entry to public places was put forward.
What I find most amusing about that report decrying pregnancies in California women’s prisons is that it was written by the hard-left ‘Women’s Liberation Front’ or WoLF.

‘Violent extremist’ inspired by ISIS is shot dead by police after stabbing six in Auckland supermarket
Since he’s obviously observant I wonder which mosque he’s been attending? Neither here nor there I suppose since he’s just suffered fatal lead poisoning.
Mater.
I have come to the opinion that our PM and premiers are all extremely odd people.
Would the average person ever seek their company or call them a friend?
They are bubble people and have not shared the common experiences or wisdom of common folk.
That makes them dangerous to liberty, and they’ve proved it.
He may just be one of those awful shallow types who has a checklist of what a Christian does (go to services, no cheating on the wife, don’t swear etc) but without the sense of the spirit. Without grace.
He may well give money to charities for druggies (tick) but step around the crumpled, bone-thin, bone-grey remnant of a person groaning in a doorway on his way to grab a morning cappuccino without thinking for a moment of pausing to ask them how it happened.
Proud (to the extent that his checklist will allow) that he is a good man, looking upwards and smiling more to a colleague than to God, blissfully unaware of the grime and desperate suffering about his feet.
Yes they are dangerous and it’s obvious that ‘democracy’ is totally broken. Has been for a long time but all the malignancies from this are getting more and more overwhelming.

Second, the defeat will have to be of biblical proportions to bring some Liberals to their senses or just get rid of them as a party to make room for a new one that will actually represent their voters.

Ms Ardern described the man as a “violent extremist” and supporter of ISIS who became known to police in 2016.
“What happened today was despicable, it was hateful, it was wrong,” Ms Ardern said, adding it was not representative of any faith or community.
“What does the I stand for in ISIS, PM?” asked not one journalist, ever.
Well, that didn’t work.

I wouldn’t be too concerned about electoral loss of Biblical proportions – a state of emergency can see elections deferred indefinitely or done on-line (like Census) where I’m sure the incumbent Party would receive more than enough votes to romp in.
They’ve wiped their arses with the Constitution (always was a politicians’ constitution anyway) andthey have the guns.

” adding it was not representative of any faith or community.”
LOL. As I wrote earlier….the stabbing will just go into the forgettery. Who remembers Maurice and Zoe Antill? Remember how quickly that was filed into the forgettery? An elderly couple who had their throats slashed by a rodent adherent of the scummy religion of pieces.
Drills
I’m just a little curious here. On the old blog you mentioned a few times that if caught out with a terminal illness, one of your actions , immediately after hearing such very, very sad news, would be to arm-up, load-up. then head to the bank and take out the bank staff for not lending money.
Here though, you appear to be very agitated over the loon stabbing people in the NZ supermarket.
Can you explain how his action and your promised one are so qualitatively different that they cannot be compared?
I’m confused here. I’m guessing that you have a problem with religious based murders whereas as if it’s to do with money (in this case loans) it’s much different and therefore justified. Am I on the right track here? Thanks.

Then all those parents who have been driven up the wall by having to work at home and homeschool their kids.
Then all those people who couldn’t go to funerals of loved ones and friends, see then in hospital or provide comfort in their dying days.
Then all those grandparents who were deprived of their grandchildren, missed out on special moments and milestones even if they were only in the next street.
Shall I continue?
Three shifts a day, every day, for five years.

Just last month Ardern’s government rejected a $50 per week benefit increase for families on welfare.
That’s their prerogative, to be sure, but Ardern came to office campaigning that NZ children were starving “in their hundreds of thousands” under John Key.
No joke, but isn’t Craig Kelly doing ads for the UAP at the moment. Man, Craigie is not a good looking dude. Ugly schnauzer comes to mind.

Why is that any of the Federal Liberal Party’s (direct) fault?
Don’t get me wrong as this is quite possible especially in the fucked in the head state of Victoria.
People could vote in droves against the Feds because of the lockdown while people vote in droves for the Hunchback because of the lockdowns and “keeping us safe”.
Do you think, I’m catching the mood here? 🙂
Doc, here:

The long march of Civilisation in human affairs is a steady easing of the burden of making a living. Each generation makes it easier for the following generation to exist. So the agricultural revolution resulted in fewer people needing to work to achieve the same or better results in harvest as an example.
If this premise is taken to be true, why then the disapproval of people justly taking advantage of the advance of civilisation to not work and be “looked after”.
Further, the Western “Capitalist” system encourages winner takes all behaviour. This means that some actively seek to disadvantage others. This results in any life failure being a failure for life. Loss of “assets” for the vast majority of people is irreversible.
The “Democratic” governance system is at last seen for what it is. A corrupt winner takes all system where rich persons can buy politicians and politicians have no respect or duty to their electorate.
There is no honour here.
There is no respect here.
There is no security here.
There is only endless corruption and lawlessness.
JC – They all say we’re opening up by December.
But on the arc we’re going by December we’ll be having 10,000 positive tests a day and the deaths will be at least double figures, possibly triple figures. All those elderly which the flu hasn’t been carrying off for over a year are still ready to be carried off, vaccination or no vaccination.
The Western Sydney problem is out of control because the locals are ignoring and actually evading the quarantine restrictions. Gladys can’t stop that from happening without bringing in the ADF and basically starting a war.
So I do rather doubt we’ll be opening up any time soon. The pollies’ have dug their hole ‘way too deeply for that. Maybe they’ll try, but the pressure on them to Do Something will become immense, and we all know what they will default to doing in such a circumstance.
“No joke, but isn’t Craig Kelly doing ads for the UAP at the moment. Man, Craigie is not a good looking dude. Ugly schnauzer comes to mind.”
I’ve met Craig numerous times. He a very nice man, ebullient, polite, sense of humour, middle Australia…which is why he made his seat of Hughes (which borders Scummo’s seat of Cook) a safe Liberal seat. Craig represents everything the Liberal party once stood for…Menzies’ values…small business, free speech, liberty, individual responsibility, aspiration. The party no longer represents any of that. What Scumbag Morrison did to Kelly in February of this year was shameful. He sided with Labor against one of his own. Kelly is a backbencher and the Liberal party has a long history of mavericks…but no, that despicable Morrison chose to side with Labor to censure and silence Kelly….the left have loathed Kelly for years because of his stance on “climate change” and now Covid.
Definitely.
And now for a piece of, let me see now, what is it? Ah, yes ‘style over substance’.
Our travertine stone tiling on our verandahs and enclosures has been cut, laid, grouted and now sealed with something that smells noxious but works a treat. Shiny now and it brings out the coloration variability in the stone, lending a slightly medieval feel to it. Wonderful. So there is a great sense of style, and given that it’s quite a hefty stone, quite a lot of substance too, truth be told.
We halted work during the period of two neighbours kids’ trial HSC exams done at home.
I am well up on the timetables of this year’s Year 11 and Year 12 subjects and testings.
Poor kids have enough to put up with during lockdown and don’t need added noise as well.
Not on Kindle. There’s a pathetic book called The Money Illusion by another bloke, and there’s a book by Sumner with Midas in the title. But he’s either wrong or not on Amazon.
They could try protecting the elderly instead. What a novel idea. Extra contactless support services to those elderly people at home who don’t want to go out to places of exposure. Well worth a bit of money spent on those in place of horrendously expensive and draining lockdowns.
He’s not on Kindle. The book does exist, although it’s got a much longer title.
That occured to me too.
Let’s say it is a crew of two watching him.
Hours required 365 x 24 x 2 heads = 17,520 hours.
Given a standard working year of 1650 hours per person after leave, training, yada yada, that requires 11 FTEs.
Mss. Palaszczuk & Young agree with you, Bruce.
On the other side of the ledger, it seems to me that Andrews is taking a rather sadistic delight in threatening the unvaxxed with loss of freedoms.
Politics attracts the weirdest of people.
That’ll be our downfall.
Horseface:
What happened today was despicable, it was hateful it was wrong,” Ms Ardern said in a news conference. “It was carried out by an individual, not a faith.”
She added that she was “absolutely gutted” to hear about the attack.
There is no ISIS, Al-qaeda or any other terrorist group, there is only islam. Ardern is a traitor and/or a fool, typical of our ‘leaders’; what a pity she wasn’t literally gutted like the 6 other poor bastards who will be comfited by horseface’s assertion that is was just a nut and not a faith who rearranged their intestines.
It tells you what a nasty shit he is. A thorough-going politician, with a firm conviction that he has the right to tell everyone what to do. And who really enjoys doing it.
Last week, it emerged that the Federal Department of Health had rewritten a guide to COVID-19 vaccinations for pregnant women by deleting the word “women” and replacing it with “people who are pregnant, breastfeeding or planning pregnancy”.
This was another clear example of how this woke, anti-women ideology has infiltrated Australia’s public service.
Today, success! The guide has been re-issued and once again refers to women and mothers, as it should.
I wish they left the guide as it was. I could seek vaccine exemption as a “person planning pregnancy.”
The fact that I’m (a) Old, and (b) a bloke wouldn’t matter, I can identify as anything I want.
“Ardern is a traitor and/or a fool,”
She’s a fool….and that makes her more dangerous.
Wince…
Not me, I’ve learnt my limitations. Birds and animals and science I can do, not people.
Now back to my novel, taking refuge in fiction appeals to me right now.
Reality is increasingly distasteful.
Bugger.
That it is.
My refuge is history and theology.
They grant perspective.
What a smug woman.

So she intentionally brings up the dumbest arguments against vaccination and then expects other educated people who don’t agree with her to just shut up?
Despicable.
How does she explain away any of the insane nonsense Fauci has spouted such as wearing multiple face masks or booster shots every five months after shots 1 & 2; let alone degrading crap like anal swabbing in China?
It is perfectly reasonable to demand a traditional attenuated virus vaccine.
Andrews openly talked about mandatory vaccinations for people who won’t voluntarily get the jab.
This precious toddler is throwing a tantrum because his lockdown has failed and he didn’t get to boast it in front of ScoMo and Gladys, so now he’s taking his anger out on citizens.
No football
No Pub
No Clubs
No restaurant
A psychological assessment to be made of TaliDan.
Reality is for people who can’t handle drugs
Dr Zelenko in his interview with Craig Kelly got Morrison exactly right when he called him a prostitute who had sold out the country he had been elected to protect.
Them too Roger. Currently been reading Hosea. Hos. 6:2 is one of my favorites. Also have a bookmark in the first vol of the account of the AIF fighting against the Japanese, but that is a bit too real and painful for me to want to get back into just yet.
*Every vaccination brings us closer to the freedoms we enjoy.*
Stage managed crap designed to make it look like you had a plan all along, didn’t make it up as you went along and didn’t panic on the most inaccurate and incompetent of forecasts.
Yes, there are no doubt good reasons why my grandfather would never talk about that.
I’ve since pieced together some of the history from his service record.
The greatest generation.
This is a massive lie. If she were really interested in saving lives she would be advocating every cure, not simply advocating experimental vaccines with serious side effects.
It’s actually much worse than that because, if they get their way, we will never be free again. It will always be just as much as they permit at the time. That is not freedom.
A vaccine passport system means that we will forever be bound to do what we’re told simply to retain access to the most basic things in life.
A bureaucrat’s wet dream.

I’m struggling with how much it will have cost NZ to have a squad of armed plod following this thing’s every move for the past years.
Not quite every move. The watchers seem to have been having a day off today.

Check if the War Diaries of his unit are on-line at the AWM website. They cover (in varying detail) the day to day activities of each unit. They have been digitising them for some years now, starting with combat arms units. I’m not cure how far they have got, but you might be lucky.
Ah, no, BJ.
They were there and popped him off within a minute or two.
Which actually proves the point that even tight surveillance is no prevention.
What is the difference between alabaster and gypsum?
Rex giving it to Bird on Dash-Cat and drawing the usual suspects in behind Bird.
Rex could just be a blog wrecker!
Carving.
Alabaster is yummy.
absolutist
MT – Of course. I’ve at least two, maybe three I forget, patents to my name which centre on the use of gypsum. But gypsum isn’t pretty. Alabaster is pretty.
New Fred everyone!
You do know there’s new OT.
Don’t you?
Ok gypsum can be pretty, I admit. Those crystal caves in Mexico are otherworldly.
I used to have an alabaster ash-tray back in the 80’s

Arky:
I’m curious about the colours and patterns, Arky.
These are important matters.
.22 pellets 🙂
Tom Elliott again frothing at the mouth about vaccine passports. He loves them. He can’t understand unions being suspicious about compulsory vaccinations. Of course, he is ‘personally’ opposed to them but if the rest of the world is instituting and if ‘freedom’ requires them then so be it.
I hope those words come back to haunt Reischfuhrer Bunter.
