I knew there was a reason I didn’t move to Chinchilla.
Said it before, the 2021 “Nationals” are the party of CCP front agri-corps, banks and national sell outs. Nothing more.
For Cats who love their medieval detectives, there’s a very enjoyable essay at Quadrant comparing Elis Peters and Umberto Eco’s work.
I’ve been otherwise engaged and effectively incommunicado over the past 2-3 weeks and so haven’t been posting or reading the Cat. Today I had a few minutes and the first post was Dover’s “Victoria’s Finest”.
What a depressing review. I can’t shake the feeling that some of the police seem to be enjoying themselves – they have been given free rein and this is not an opportunity they will let pass. They want to show the plebs who is in charge and having been armed with assorted new ‘toys’, are keen to use them. If it were not for those pesky individuals with mobile phones who are recording their actions, the brutality would escalate beyond the eye gouging, brutal take-downs, being hit with the butt of a rifle, choked…….
Meanwhile, the MSM are struck mute save parroting the government’s approved commentary. Never again can we ridicule comparable scenes in some 3rd world hellhole. Our ‘leaders’ have authorised these police excesses – not tacitly, but with the full knowledge and assent of the State.
What a god-awful country we now live in.
This is one thing in his favour.
Not I. And to my utter and complete amazement, the Beloved said he won’t be either. Nearly fell off my chair.

“Gladys is an ugly woman without children; she is capable of anything.”
Totally inappropriate comment. There are many reasons why women don’t have children.
That’s me, inappropriate. How about this:
Gladys is an ugly woman who chose to not have children: she is capable of anything.
I was particularly struck when she got her pointy little head together with another childless by choice woman, theresa may, and they were taped opining on the hoi polloi and why they needed to be controlled in respect of climate change.
I know a couple of childless by choice women; they’ve had great lives but now seem sad and in one case B&T.
So, who’s voting Liberal when PM Wobbleguts visits the G-G?
Nor I. Apart from one moment of madness in the mid 1980’s when I voted for Hawke*, I have voted Liberal in every State and Federal election both before that madness moment and since. But not this time.
I wholeheartedly applaud the nuclear submarine decision but that’s it. Nothing else has earnt my vote.
* I apologise but it was 40 years ago and I must have been swept up in the bonhomme of the time. Australia was different then……Hawke seemed like a good bloke……I was much younger…..there was a flood……famine…….locusts…….For the love of God I’m sorrrrry!!!!!
I did the same Speedbox.

I remember Russ Hinze saying the unemployed should be required to wear an identifier in public.
Presumably so they could be spat on and given the occasional shove by the good burghers of Brisbane.
I could go on but it might see Godwin’s Law invoked.
Cali: Merv’s piece is great — and it set me straight about Name of the Rose, which I read and enjoyed for all the detail and digressions but which left me ultimately unsatisfied. Merve sums up why in two sentences.
Yes I didn’t even expect this to be controversial considering how many cats have voiced the same opinion over the years.
And it’s not just that, “my career is who I am and all I’ve got”, woman are so good at being ruthless while still getting, ‘lady privilege’, but they also don’t have to worry about getting sent texts of their kids schools to change their decisions from those they were installed make.
I just thought that post was a timely reminder considering how many people are trying to paint Gladys Berejiklian as, ‘the good one’ in this Illegal National Cabinet of Tyrants.
Roger, Helen Dale has some interesting thoughts on the Australian bias to authoritarianism on the Outdoor Prison thread.
Your Hinze comment reminded me.
Rukshan’s parents, at their home in Sri Lanka, have been visited by police, for an “interview”.
It is believed, though unable to be confirmed, that this is due to back-channel pressure by large media organisations from overseas (i.e. Australia).
Salvatore – are you still having trouble getting staff? I recall you mentioned that you were offering very attractive wages but without success. Is that still the case?

Eco drove me nuts. It was a most excellent mystery but it really had no proper finish, clearly intentional as I now see. I loved the movie. Just sublime. I thought about that labyrinthine library a lot when I visited Melk.

Righto, calli, I’ll see what her take on it is.
Can I say this….none of my grandparents held authoritarian views; they were Menzies’ ‘forgotten people’, neither of the definite Right nor the hard Left because they were suspicious of ideologies and preferred pragmatic solutions to societal problems with only moderate government intervention. Yet while they had definite views on Communist ‘ratbags’, they were among those middle class voters who voted ‘No’ on the 1951 anti-Communist referendum, which of course was not carried because of that Liberal voter leakage. I remember my then elderly grandmother, who took a keen interest in politics, expressing disdain for Hinze at the time. Their’s was a worldview which I would call ‘Christian humanism’, nurtured by the Church of England when it still stood unambiguously for something.

The campaign to silence those who stand for human rights continues.
Make no mistake this is a political arrest and if it happened in Russia or China we would be condemning human rights abuse.
‘But there’s a pandemic’.
That’s not relevant, you can’t simply turn human rights on and off, and they sure as hell don’t depend on whether our politicians like them or not.
Harrison is a relatively mild mannered man, I’ve never seen him get in people’s faces or start any sort of trouble. His ‘crime’ is to believe that our rights belong to us, not to our government, and nothing more.
And in Daniel Andrew’s Victoria that’s all it takes to be a criminal.

Phil Thompson in Herbert also has a new dangerous enemy, Dolan Hayes is one of those old school Beattie type muck rakers. Dolan has jumped on to the ALP candidates bandwagon as a staffer. I reckon the ALP are sniffing they can flip a few seats like this. If Scomo jumps and gives the kiss of death to Frydenberg then we will know the internal polling is horrible.

Hairy and I were wondering if it wasn’t a bit of a spoof.
No-one in their right mind would put a lettuce salad out for a dog. As I understand it, Vegans usually use some horrible mock-meat made out of pulses etc, rather as the kibbles for cats and dogs are often a mixture of carbs and meat proteins, hot pressed into a crunchy kibble.
That said, I’ve never thought that vegans were in their right minds, so maybe salad it was that she got her poor starved dog to eat. I’ve seen starving dogs in Sri Lanka chewing on watermelon rind for sustenance.

Yes, I think that sums up the general sentiment at the time, Tinta.
We have to remember that many of that generation – including my paternal grandfather – had recently put their lives on the line against totalitarianism, whether of the Nazi or Japanese variety or both in some instances. They held no illusions about Communism, but Menzies move for that power was a step too far in their view.

JC @ 12:24pm
And you can tell she doesn’t support what’s going on but only partly going for the ride because she has to. Everyone would be against her
JC, I can understand why you think she’s ok – you’re living in a state with an actual dictator, so anything’s better than that.
But it’s not good enough that she’s the least worst of the premiers and, if true, it’s even worse that she’s only partly going for the ride, because that would show that she’s a gutless wonder when she’s supposed to be a leader.
She has trashed the state of NSW and thrown over her sacred duty to its people. At the federal level the same thing is about to play out in Glasgow when the Prime Minister and Environment Minister submit to a zero emissions policy. Politicians are supposed to work for the betterment of the people whom they lead: that is, they’re supposed to serve us; not the other way ’round.
Now whether Gladys’ change of tack on the way NSW would manage the virus, occurred because she was experiencing heat from the media who were questioning her relationship with Darryl Maguire and his business dealings and she wanted to change the narrative, or whether she’d been pressured by the Federal Govt and General Frewin to get the state jabbed and did so using the blunt instrument of stopping people from working and going about their normal daily activities – whatever it is – she has betrayed her position as premier and is not fit for her high office.
Her claim and threat that unvaccinated citizens in NSW will not have the normal freedoms that is everyone’s right as a citizen of Australia is a disgrace, as is her government’s introduction of a vaccine passport. She is a disgrace. She is supposedly a Liberal.
I had a look at the NSW Liberal Party’s website. Under the heading “Our Beliefs” is the following. (Read it and weep).
https://nsw.liberal.org.au/Our-Party/Our-Beliefs
As far as I’m concerned she will carry the opprobrium of this debacle while she’s stays leader. I can no longer bear the sight of her and that’s got nothing to do with her looks.
Outrageous interference in his rights as a citizen to privacy.

Similar traffic online about Ruki Fernando a Human Rights activist who has been arrested a number of times from Columbo. There’s not a crossing of wires here is there? I can’t find any mention to Rukshan’s parents getting an impromptu visit and know Fernando is quite a common Sri Lankan surname.

It’s no coincidence that Germany was arguably the first Western nation to be secularised (in the sense of ‘losing its religion’, a different sociological phenomena from the political veneer of French secularism), beginning in the 19th C. after unification.
Post-WWI Weimar Germany was a very decadent society, bereft of a religious or moral compass, a precursor in many ways to what the West has become today.

The face is great and the breasts are also good value. The legs above the knee are just too fat. Call me finicky and a little pedantic, but I need faultless legs.

Head prefect, both you and BBS are correct. In pure terms BBS is right: gladys has betrayed her principles and in pure political terms is not worth voting for.
However politics is a relative game; and you are right, compared to something like the hunchback, or palachook or that prick in WA/SA she is relatively better.
Politics is the art of holding your nose while you support people who in a fair and just world you would feed to the pigs. But it ain’t a fair or just world.
I said upthread that gladys had deliberately neglected her ovaries but in a sense I think her offspring is that fucktard matt kean.
No you don’t, you motherless fucks.

I agree with you BBS but the ugly comment posted earlier, clearly copied and pasted from Adam’s Cat, was a nasty comment about her being “ugly” and “not having children”. I don’t think Gladys is “ugly”. Now, I’m quite happy for Gladys to be judged on her role as premier, the last few months she’s been shocking…..every premier seems to have happily handed over power to unelected health bureaucrats, nasty mediocrities such as Chant. However I’m not happy for Gladys to be smeared because of her looks and the fact that she’s unmarried and doesn’t have children. There are numerous reasons why women are unmarried and don’t have children, some of those reasons are through choice and some have, sadly, have not had a choice.
A low IQ person here the other day described me as a “bitter barren woman”. The only thing she got right is that, yes, I’m a woman…an adult human female. I would have liked to have had children, I wasn’t so lucky with my relationships. However, I could easily have fallen pregnant, brought a child into this world and raised that child alone but I didn’t think it was right to raise a child without a father. I seriously thought about it but I made the right decision not to. I mourn not having children but I maintain I still made the right decision..in the meantime I have a great relationships with my nephews and niece.
As for Gladys, who knows why she’s single with no children. I know she had a successful career before she entered politics…and she probably thought she’d end up getting married and time just passes you by, which is what happened to me.
I’m happy for Gladys to be criticised for the performance…I won’t be voting for her, but her looks and her marital status are irrelevant.

From the DM linked above by ssr:
As I mentioned the other day re Monica Smitt, our police/ prosecutors charge you in order to threaten you with imprisonment if you contravene bail conditions that have no other purpose than to silence you. And here it involves protesting either in words or acts the ‘directions of the CHO’. For how much longer are we to pay homage to the ‘directions’ of an appointed public official? To raise an argument from dot, who ever passed the legislation that empowers the CHO, I’m sure they never imagined that we would be under a state of emergency for 18 months. Truly, its no longer an emergency if it persists for 18 months.
No.
They seem pretty intent on this “no jab, no shopping” apartheid app.

Vaccine passport test run
Select businesses in Buloke, Pyrenees, Bass Coast, Bendigo, East Gippsland and Warrnambool will test systems in the fortnight before Victoria is due to hit the 70 per cent double dose vaccination mark.
The 20 trial sites will be selected based on vaccination rates and case numbers.
Among the issues to be explored during the trials are vaccine status verification and how to help businesses safely deal with aggressive customers who are denied service.*
“The trial is partly about ensuring that we understand all of those different pressure points and all those different possibilities so that by the time we get to 70 per cent and 80 per cent we have a much better idea of what is secure and what is not,” Industry Support and Recovery Minister Martin Pakula said.
The Premier also hinted vaccination could soon be required for hospitality workers, but said the chief health officer is still considering the issue.
“It would be strange if you weren’t allowed to stand at the public bar to have a beer unless you are vaccinated, but the person who was pouring the beer didn’t have to be vaccinated,” he said./
*I dont suppose “dont deny them service” is an option to the smooth brain geniuses in charge?

Yes as Premier the buck stops with her, buuuuuut, in NSW once the

In Qld Pileoshit truthfully said “I don’t control these matters (referring to sad tales of woe re health exemptions) because under their Enabling Act the CHO becomes dictator. I believe Vic is same as Qld, don’t know about other states. If Young issued a proclamation under the Enabling Act that we all have to dye our hair red to prevent the spread of covid, legally no politician can stop her without revoking the state of emergency.I wholeheartedly applaud the nuclear submarine decision but that’s it.

Re Elis Peters and Umberto Eco (and Lindsay Davis) here’s a fine article about another classic, which was from Frank Herbert.
The Importance Of Dune, Part 1: The Sleeper Has Awakened (25 Sep)
His comment about Blade Runner is a good one: very bad timing to have released a dark warning movie into a time of optimism and plenty. On the other hand no one would ever dare remake Blade Runner today, ‘way too threatening and dangerous.
I had to look him up. Okay. Sold.
If only I could get to a shop. Better buy something on line before Big Brother realises I have an unvaxxed Mastercard.
Yea, that’s what our lawyer kid said too, Dot. That’s the purpose for such an outlandish trip 10 k out of the limit zone. I’m just curious to see if that’s how they’re checking and also if ours was checked and lit up red, what happens after that. Wifey said they threaten with 5k each fines for being out of the 10k. Do they send a letter requesting an explanation?
This is also what was done to Bikies, their friends, family & associates in Qld. & Tommy Robinson, but made even a little worse in that they were set up for situations where it was impossible to not breach bail conditions.
With both situations I and countless others warned that this was coming for all of us but we simply ‘got othered’ with those people who the MSM taught ‘the good public’ to fear & loath.
Now that same ‘good public’ who are asking for their freedom of association & bodily autonomy are feared & loathed (by those who have that all that corrupt, violent, tyrannical State Power behind them), and they wonder how it came to this.
I’m just curious to see if that’s how they’re checking and also if ours was checked and lit up red, what happens after that. Wifey said they threaten with 5k each fines for being out of the 10k. Do they send a letter requesting an explanation?
And he was never seen again.
Normally you can write to the fining officer or their sergeant first. Sometimes they make an admin. decision to rescind the fine. The fine usually lists some options on the back of it. It isn’t an exhaustive list though, it is bit of a con job, using assumptive language etc. It shouldn’t go to court and politely writing to them buys you time.
I am from Gladystan, however.

Anti-vaccine flyers banned from being posted by some Australian mailing services
Industry body updates code to stop delivery of misinformation, such as flyers sent by United Australia party
Anti-vaccination flyers, such as those distributed by the United Australia party, could be banned from being delivered by many of the nation’s largest mail distributors.
The industry’s self-regulatory body has decided to change its code so that signatories could not mail content containing misinformation with the potential to harm health.
Clive Palmer’s United Australia party has been sending out mail about Covid-19 and the vaccination program since earlier this year.
The yellow and black flyers, similar to text messages sent by the UAP and advertising it has taken out in newspapers, warn of “adverse reactions” to the vaccines, based on a TGA report which documents every reaction experienced after vaccination, regardless of if there is any connection to the vaccine itself.
…
In June, the postal industry’s Distribution Standards Board decided that anti-vaccination flyers would be deemed “adult content” and would need to be wrapped in plastic so that children couldn’t see the content.
Flyers mailed out by the UAP have since adopted this requirement.
But the signatories to the code reported in recent weeks they had been asked to distribute more Covid-19 misinformation and wanted the code beefed up.
After reviewing flyer proofs proposed to be sent out over the past 10 days, the DSB board on Thursday ruled to update its code so that signatories “will not deliver content of inauthentic material”.
“This includes content which contains misinformation that could have potential to impact an individual’s physical or mental health, financial security, safety, is knowingly fraudulent, or is not supported by a qualified independent third-party or is widely rated as false content,” the code states.
So in effect they are banning nearly all advertising material?
I hope Clive does some more recreational litigation.
And cowards castle being used to try to sic woke mobs onto the agent of clive/satan..
It is unclear which companies have been accepting the UAP’s business in the past few months. In August, the Labor MP Patrick Gorman named Ive Group, the largest national distributor of mail next to Australia Post, in parliament as being behind the flyers.
“I’m calling on Ive Group – we normally know them in this place as Salmat – to stop taking Clive Palmer’s money. They’re not doing any good. They can use their freedom of speech to stop taking his money. They don’t have to distribute his misinformation.”

If they don’t send a letter requesting an explanation, tell them you will see them in court. This is your chance to become a hero to all Victorians, by forcing them to defend their actions before a judge.
Seriously, if we had a premier with balls chant would be fired.
Peoples! 🙂
See you in the gulag J.C.
Can you keep one of the bunks away from the door for me?
I’m a light sleeper and I don’t want to be woken up when they’re dragging fellows out for interrogations.
Social distancing plus masking makes it very hard for people to communicate privately.
You can’t mouth messages, you can’t pass notes.
They’ve been pretty good at curtailing non-electronic private discussions.
We need to enlist half a dozen septic pump out tanker drivers and pig farmers with slurry trucks so they can hit the streets and spray the turtles. Spray the filth with filth. There was a farmer in the UK who did the very thing to Emma Thompson and her cohorts when they set up in his field to spout the Gerbil Warming rubbish.
The pump out guys would be members of the TWU wouldn’t they?
Alternative universe stuff, Cohenite (again). 🙁
We have no such luxury at this point.
Doubling down on the stupid, we will have plenty of.
Isn’t that a reasonable excuse JC? Maintenance of a property after an earthquake?
Plead insanity head prefect. I’ll testify in your defence.
I’ll be there as well, Arks. Look out for a preposterous dinobore clad in a white Bayern jacket.
You guys gotta get a timeshare or duplex building together.
Are they checking registrations this way and matching it with the 10k limit. Does anyone know?
Zero doubt.
If like NSW, they can sit there scanning 10,000 cars, the computer tells them who’s who.
I will be in the jungle in my hut with my cheap Handelsgold cigar and a 1985 Arsenal jacket.

Thanks Dot
I get it. If I lit up red, they send a fine through the mail like they do with speed fines and allowing room for an explanation and a provision for going straight to court.

more on the ‘nah we wont do that thing in your mouth you hate, again” vaccine passports..
Vaccine passports in Australia: who will impose them and how will they work?
National cabinet has agreed that all states and territories will integrate vaccine certificates in their check-in apps. But as for how and when they will be implemented, it’s every jurisdiction for itself
How shit are the Federal liberal Party??
So shit Id rather vote for ACT Labour than them.
The chief minister of the Australian Capital Territory, Andrew Barr, said as much on Wednesday, comments that followed his earlier explanation that he opposes the idea that vaccinated people should gain extra freedoms citing human rights and the practicality of enforcement.
By contrast, New South Wales and Victoria have laid out reopening plans that include exemptions from public health orders for the fully vaccinated, but it’s less clear how vaccine passports will be used in states that are currently Covid-free.
Last Friday national cabinet agreed that all states and territories will integrate vaccine certificates in their check-in apps. That creates the architecture that will allow businesses to refuse to serve unvaccinated customers, which Scott Morrison and discrimination law experts have said is likely to be legal.
Morriscum needs to be turned into a Danducken, a spineless sausage casing of a man with Dan wearing him like a skin suit.
…
NSW has announced that “only fully vaccinated people and those with medical exemptions will have access to the freedoms allowed under the Reopening NSW roadmap”.
…
Victoria’s roadmap also sets out the freedoms vaccinated people will enjoy, subject to density limits and caps on numbers.
…
The Western Australian premier, Mark McGowan, has said “you’ll need a vaccine passport to do certain things” including flying overseas, interstate travel and possibly also to attend sporting events.
In early September, the Queensland premier, Annastacia Palaszczuk, declined to say whether vaccine certificates would be needed, citing the fact there was no Delta in the state.
The Tasmanian premier, Peter Gutwein, has said he is not against the idea but a vaccine passport won’t be implemented until every Tasmanian has had the opportunity to get vaccinated.
The South Australian premier, Steven Marshall, is reportedly in favour, but wants the commonwealth to coordinate the efforts.
….
Business requirements on customers
On 6 August Morrison said the solicitor general had advised it was “unlikely” that requiring customers to be vaccinated would infringe discrimination laws.
“Ultimately, [they’re] choices for the businesses themselves,” Morrison said.
Discrimination law expert Liam Elphick agrees, stating that “choosing not to be vaccinated against Covid-19” is not a “protected attribute” in discrimination law.
“While people can choose not to get vaccinated against Covid-19, businesses are equally free to choose not to permit them entry,” he says.
This means that even if public health orders do not require proof of vaccination, unvaccinated Australians may be unable to access certain events and businesses.
Still at least we have this iron clad maybe that it wont be permanent..
Barr said on Wednesday that no state had “gone on the record to say that they intend to make permanent these discriminatory measures, so one would hope they would only be temporary in jurisdictions that do adopt them”.
“gladys has betrayed her principles and in pure political terms is not worth voting for.”
Yeah, someone killing you a little bit is better than someone killing you alot.
She’s scum like the rest.

Yea. I should have followed my hunch and avoided the freeway. It’s more likely fuckers disobeying the 10k limit are on the freeways than regular roads.

Kill Chain – not on Netflix Shatterzzz – so won’t see it.
This Aussie Cossack chap is running a very sophisticated operation.
He puts clips up on YouTube that from what I can do not dox the police (please let me know if that isn’t the case).
That’ll get you banned from the platform.
Then on TikTok there are random accounts, with only a few followers, and one or two posts showing the cops details.
Which then are getting shared around & edited.
If I was part of NSW plod & was told I was going to be on Aussie Cossack’s case today, I’d be calling in sick.

They’re billiard table legs JC.
What is he thinking?
JC,
If they didn’t pull you up immediately, you won’t be getting a letter in the mail, unless it’s for speeding.
They’d question you immediately for the reasonable excuse, or you’re home free with respect to the 10kms.
Perhaps too many to pull up everyone for questioning, or they are profiling to reduce the numbers. Whatever it is, I think you’ve got away with it.
I’m not sure the visit has made it to wider public knowledge.
My source is direct from people on the ground in his hometown.

Good to know.
This would not, and does not, stop her from behaving like the worst concentration camp guard. Frankly, I don’t really care about her motivation. If anything, it makes it even worse if she disagrees with it because it has no influence on her actions at all. Just another good little German who’ll do whatever is required, up to and including murder.
Dovers, have they been alive to anyone with a functioning brain for about the last eight years?
Ruddick presented an analysis on Skah recently where he demonstrated they had lost many millions of votes over the last two feral elections.
It is a path to oblivion. However, the concept of a labore/greenfilth coalition from May next year terrifies me.
We should stock up on guns, ammo and toilet paper – I’ve got a bidet, so I won’t need to go the latter – which means more of the former two 🙂
Number 2 daughter just lost her part time job in a cafe because she won’t get vaccinated.
I’m so proud of her. This is all her own investigation and resolve to stick to her guns.

What was the burger joint on third Avenue we’d go to for lunch? Let’s find the same place down there. 🙂
By the way the new hotel Continental looks like it’s going to be really good value. I think they’re going to try the LA thing of hiring out pool cabanas for the day.

Vaccine passport test run
Select businesses in Buloke, Pyrenees, Bass Coast, Bendigo, East Gippsland and Warrnambool will test systems in the fortnight before Victoria is due to hit the 70 per cent double dose vaccination mark.
I’d really like to know what businesses in Buloke and Pyrenees they have in mind. LGA’s with small towns with small businesses.
The supermarkets might be the target. Then it would get interesting denying people food and having the local plod throw locals out of the veggie section.
Scum trying to coerce good people to become the scum they are.

Lindsey Davis’s books are ripe for being made into a series. Netflix, Amazon…guys if you are reading this: get the rights.
Are they checking registrations this way and matching it with the 10k limit. Does anyone know?
I believe there are instructions to do that but Highway Vikpol don’t seem to be enforcing. I’ve been driving everywhere from Hastings to NE Vic and nothing. Only think I haven’t done is use toll roads. Says a lot when Highway patrol are choosing not to be pricks.

It had Hugh Grant pretending to be God knows what.
Excruciating.
I wonder is Scummo, Federal Liberals and the various state Liberals have any idea how loathed they are now?
The Gentlemen
Great watch.
Hugh Grant being unrecognisable was pretty cool.
Recently watched Wrath of Man.
Pretty cool flick.
Guy Ritchie doing the stylised crime flicks awesome.
Arks – it’s a movie. It’s not meant to have any connection with reality as we pretend to know it.
OK, I can now forgive Guy Ritchie for not getting on with The PROMISED Prt 2 of the brilliant, “Rock N Rolla” … yet.

Jason Statham was meant to play Archie in Rocknrolla but was too busy in Hollywood hence Mark Rich getting the gig.
Goliath with Billy Bob Thornton is an OK watch, and the latest season is about big Pharma sociopaths, which is current.

I tried watching Secret City because Anna Torv was in it but gave up because of the Jackie Weaver character.
She was awesome in Mindhunters.
Fake reviews because you don’t approve of their world view.
Very progressive.
You always hope for the best but they have showed no sign of repenting and returning.
watched this movie last night Bad Frank.
Was’nt boring.
Dude trying to go straight after a life of violence gets sucked into one last favour as muscle at a drug deal that goes wrong. Dude kidnaps his wife, he retaliates by kidnapping the dude’s daughter, roots her (why not? She was hot. Then warns her to keep her mouth shut about the rooting part at the hostage exchange, she arcs up on him as he’s driving there, he then kills her in from of the father at the exchange meet. Kills the bloke and almost everyone, last shot is him driving off with his wife bound up in the back seat, he’s tired but happy.
That actually isn’t that much of a joke.
The rest of the world quickly freaked out at just how much taller, fitter, healthier Australia grew it’s people despite having it tougher than other colonies.
Then there was the sending of not only well bred bad boys to save the families the embarrassment of them, but also quality bastard breeding stock of the right families, for trifling matters that others qualified for transportation served at home.
Likewise there was also the work arounds of the white Australia policy for those who didn’t qualify but again had desirable bloodlines, such as the secret rescue of Ural Caucasians.
All enduring great families have ’emergency spares’ stashed around unexpected places.
All’s fair in love and war.
Nor forgiven, nor allowed to slink off as though destroying millions of our fellow Ozzies’ lives meant nothing.
They will pay.

You always hope for the best but they have showed no sign of repenting and returning.
Why should they “repent and return” when they are the ones driving all that’s happening in Australia right now?
Howard set the scene with his gun grabbing.
I don’t see it being defamatory.
Arks. A bit of restraint when necessary is sometimes required. Not that I’m any kind of exemplar of that.
But then, you wouldn’t have had a (movie) plot.
last shot is him driving off with his wife bound up in the back seat, he’s tired but happy.
Another faggy chick flick review from the Arkster,
He’ll be knitting armadillo cosies next.
Has anyone ever seen Arky and Huge Grunt in the same room together?
One of the crime channels has Robert Pickton on tonight.
He was the part of the character that Guy Ritchie based Brick Top on.

Which is why there will be no more free elections in this country – if any, they will be done on-line due to State of Emergency.
So much evil has been done, but so much more will be done – which is why they are acting as though elections are of no consequence.
over 8000 ‘cases’ in Victoria, 2 ‘linked’ to protests are getting max media coverage but the vast majority are within households.
