I don’t know why people waste their time watching TV. I’m glad to say I have much better thing things to do with my time. Like reading this blog for example.

Been watching a heap of ‘Song of the South’ clips as a follow-up to John Nolte’s article at Breitbart.

As Nolte points out, in erasing ‘Song of the South’ the wokerati also erased a black Oscar winner:

The true outrage about Song of the South is that the great James Baskett earned a well-deserved Honorary Oscar for his iconic work as Uncle Remus, and today, this iconic performance by the first black actor to earn an Academy Award has been disappeared by Disney’s Woke Nazis. What’s more, Baskett still holds the only Honorary Oscar in history ever awarded for a single performance. Sadder still, Song of the South was Baskett’s final performance. He died just a few months after receiving that Oscar.

And now, no one is allowed to experience James Baskett’s triumph.

Just like the Left disappeared black characters like Aunt Jemima off food packages, they disappeared James Baskett. All in the name of raising up minorities.

In an uncanny coincidence, they are now disappearing women in the name of raising up minorities.

John Nolte got a copy of Song of the South on eBay. I really hope that somebody puts together a decent version of it and sells it below the radar. It’s great, including the Tar Baby and ‘please don’t throw me into the bramble bush’ sequences.

Cohenite probably even likes tall owls.

Oh? and how do you know that?

Easy. Australians are stupid and will do what ever they are told.

How does Bowen intend to compensate for the clearings of hundreds of thousands of trees and native vegetation over 25,000 kms of new lines?
Every solar and wind installation will also need line access to the big grid. More environmental clear felling.
The big dirty secret of renewables is the great land grab involved. If we don’t stop this lunacy you’ll see the biggest change to the landscape since settlement.

Not only that, when the YES vote comes in, our indigenous persons will be responsible for it all, which will enable Albo to say “none of this is my fault, it’s theirs”.

Port Arthur:

Soros funded organisations such as Gun Control Australia (Funded via Soros’s Open Family Institute) started tapping their media contacts at the need for more Gun Control as they do everywhere around the globe. The public health angle was also pretty new at this time so they had a new angle to promote. The likes of Simon Chapman also arrive on the scene fresh from the success of smoking as a public health issue.

Being fundamentally left wing the media dutifully oblige upon these requests as it fits their world view. Politicians and media start bouncing of each other on the topic in the now all to familiar Australian Mong Loop. Politicians and Police start thinking about what would be a suitable framework for restrictions. Most probably following guidance material from IANSA and the UN (they’re not very imaginative).

The media sense that they are really getting somewhere with the topic, especially useful on slow news days. The power of laziness. This puts them into overdrive on two fronts. The first is grotesque promotion of shootings and in particular the shooters, which helps prime the right type of individual to start thinking about doing something similar. The second is promoting in detail the risk of such an event, detailing how to get arms and potentially how to do a shooting. Remember 60 minutes water melon shooting expose?

Bryant was exactly the right type of loon to pick up on these ideas. Long ignored by rural Taspol as something they didn’t want to deal with. More common than you might think, having seen this policing model first hand. This, in the main, is why the issue was put to bed so quickly, the sheer negligence of Taspol in enforcing existing laws.

The AR-15 is an excellent firearm, particularly with respect to the ability to acquire good proficiency quickly. Who knows how much self training Bryant did, but it would have been effective in improving his point and shoot skills.

Where did the AR-15 come from? There is an allegation that it had been surrendered to Vicpol some years before. Not that surprising that it resurfaced, the corrupt Vikpol isn’t about to put $ under a hydraulic press. Also a further motive for getting things put to bed quickly. As for the dealers culpability in supplying a firearm to a loon, my recollection is that they never got any charges to stick, this indicates that Bryant had a firearms license which is not surprising as it was all quite cursory at that time.

If the shooter was a true operator, the magazines would have only been loaded to 28. The old metal 30 round mags were notorious for stoppages on the first two rounds when loaded fully. Bryant did it, the hits with training are certainly surprising, but not beyond the realms of possibility. What is surprising is the ability to start and then keep going without slowing down as the blood and guts escalated (German MG gunners on the Normandy beaches frequently just packed up and left because of the mental impact of the slaughter.). This underscores Bryant’s insanity, he should have been tried and executed.

Following all of this the Australian Mong Loop goes into hyperdrive. Any voice of reason gets shredded. Spastic and incoherent regulations pour out (oops! forgot pump action rifles!). Politicians and Bureaucrats believe in the wankfest, which sees such memorable ‘tard as JWH in a flack jacket. The Australian Sheeple are of course all in for this, they’re scared!, govern me harder daddy! I remember being counselled at work by my manager for very calmly offering an alternative perspective on the situation.

Knuckle Dragger virtue signals while leaving out a few important facts:

Incensed, Lee stomped towards neighbours Saumotu Gasio, 62, and Tibor Laszlo, 72, who were chatting with a group of residents outside. “Go back to where you came from,” Lee told Gasio, calling him a “c–t”.

They were a pair of poofters, and Rodney was tired of their bullshit.
This is one of those instances where the Jury should be carefully instructed about Nullification.

that was in response to a pathetic attempt to disqualify anyone without jangly tin on their chest from calling out the epic stupidity of joe vialls

No jangle if they are court mounted (and no, I don’t have enough to jangle even without court mounting).

Believing oneself to be better informed than the majority for knowing that masks won’t stop a virus isn’t narcicism, just the beginning of an education. Being sceptical of the integrity of the government and the medical authorities isn’t narcicism, just good mental health. Noting the moral cowardice of all the mask wearers and those who screamed abuse at the non-vaxxers isn’t narcicism, just a decent self-respect.

An area of about 800ha of vegetated land on Bohle Plains was purchased by the Queensland Development Corporation from the Tapolas family (Owners of Parkside Developers). Proposal is for a 100ha solar farm that IMO will be much larger, NQ Conservation Council normally very vocal on any development have been very mute despite the presence of the Black Throated finch they liberally bashed Adani around with.

The EPBC was done by a firm who are a go to for the ALP and I found rather sloppy with its findings. In fact they based their findings on environmental data that was collected well before the development of Burdell and payed lip service to normal requirements a development proposal would have to satisfy in regards to stakeholders. The fact that QDC is run by odious Mike Kaiser another person unfit for any public office tells me the fix is in.

Too many with snouts in the trough.

“Cute Owls”, don’t really get how it relates to hot chicks. Anyway you can’t beat Dale Bozzio for excellent trashy blonde looks. She was HOT!

The COVIDians found community — something they longed for but had not found in their meaningless jobs or on Twitter or wherever they had been looking — in banding together to defeat the unvaccinated. In this way, otherwise rational human beings — particularly liberal women, who are statistically the most negatively affected by the modern techno-dystopia — are turned into vicious, rabid animals willing to condone the most inhumane treatment of their enemies, weaponized cynically by the social engineers as they are unleashed on the public.

And feeling oneself morally superior to these rabid animals isn’t narcicism. There’s something wrong with you if you don’t.

Dr Bogan your whole attitude comes across as supercilious, haughty and condescending

Sorry about that. And I thought I was doing such a good job of suffering fools, if not gladly.

A comment on Bowen’s anti-nuclear tweet, with emphasis on launch delays.

Psychologist Breaks Down How Society Descended Into COVID Insanity

No need for a psych babble break down. Australia descended into Covid insanity is because its chock full of ignorant, stupid, mouth breathers.

The Patriot isn’t chasing the Kinzhals, it has to intercept them.

The Patriot (depending on variant) has a range of up to 100miles, making it an area defence weapon, not a point defence weapon. Given that, it will often be facing incoming ballistic missiles which are not pointed straight at it, but rather have a significant cross angle.

That, plus the Kinzals extreme velocity (Mach 10 = 3000 m/s*) would make interceptions by *any* means the exception rather than the rule I would think. This is why both the Russians and the Chinese use hypervelocity in their ‘carrier killer’ weapons, and why the US would, I believe, think very hard before committing carriers to the defence of Taiwan.

* albeit they will slow down as they drop into denser air as they dive on the target. Nevertheless, from maximum Patriot engagement altitude of 80,000 ft to the ground, even at an average of Mach 5 would only allow 15 seconds to engage, less if there was a significant off angle to the incoming missile.

It says a lot about the dept of foreignaffairies that they would even employ someone like Krdd.

Facts and/or coincidences –
1) Helen Harvey, heiress of the Tattersall’s lotteries fortune, died by accident Oct 1992 at 59yrs of age.
2) Bryant’s father died by suicide Aug 1993
3) Fr Jeremy Flynn, an heir of the Tattersall’s lotteries fortune died by accident on 21 April 1996 at 54yrs of age.
Port Arthur massacre occurred a week later on 28 April 1996.

Sfw it doesn’t count as a twosome just because your left hand feels like someone elses. Changing hands doesn’t make it a threesome.

Was the legislation an over-reaction to Port Arthur?
That is certainly a debate to be had.

If Taspol had done their job with the mildest degree of diligence there would have been no massacre. Similarly if the ADF had handled Knight with the mildest degree of diligence, there would have been no Hoddle St.

As I said in my post, I have seen exactly the same transpire in other jurisdictions, fortunately without any grievous outcomes.

If MSM put a sock in it over gun massacres in the way they do over suicides, there would be no culture of gun massacres. Although I note that post Port Arthur they did cool it quite a bit in Australia, can’t gin up massacres too much in a land where the problem has supposedly been “fixed”.

Catching up…

As we all know, Grandpa Ed is a shill for collectivism and against freedom and civil liberties.

What a weirdo, but he’s been smack talking jury nullification since I brought it up on the Republic (God Save the King!) thread.

His bizarre ranting really can be quite adventurous.

He says public advocacy for it should get you locked up, but judges can talk about it as a jury direction; even though US State judiciaries have struck it down directly contrary to novel State laws enshrining the idea. (Which, is in turn, why we need recall elections).

I forgot to add ‘smug’.

“If a government told everyone, ‘Righto, we don’t believe in God anymore’, how does that affect society? Is it worth $100m?”

Mr Gorringe compared trying to find a dollar value on sacred sites like the Jukkan Gorge caves, destroyed by miner Rio Tinto, with ascertaining a value for Notre Dame Cathedral.

“It’s a really complicated thing,” he said.

“I think a lot of people would be looking at some kind of compensation, but it’s a million-dollar question as to how that would work.

How to bullshit, 101.

I forgot to add ‘smug’.

One of my sins, although I prefer the term ‘self assured’.

It seems to worry you.

The Kihnzal probably doesn’t exceed or hit Mach 6 and the Patriots (c Mach 4) weren’t even that successful in the First Gulf War (the Scuds had a lot of malfunctions, fortunately).

Patriots have improved dramatically since the early 90’s when they were clearly deficient against the Scuds. There have been 8 variants built since and the latest complete system upgrade with PAC3 MSE missiles and M903 firing system is extremely advanced compared to those initial systems.

The PAC3 MSE missile has even been adapted to fit USN Mk 41 Vertical Launch System with Aegis missile defence capabilities and the Eagis Ashore system so the Americans are pretty impressed with it.

… everyone I know who resisted the Batflu Panic Reset is street smart. Intelligence has just about nothing to do with intellect, when the rubber hits the road.

I don’t mind admitting that my decision to advise my family and myself to not touch the vaccines came largely from very sage advice and information I read on the Cat…

For that I am eternally grateful and have been a very vocal anti mRNA and Viral Vector vaccine ever since…

Biden did Robert Byrd’s eulogy. He is the absolute last person who should ever bring up “white supremacy”.

I’m inclined to believe that a variety of factors influenced people to submit during the covidiocy, rather than an all-encompassing lack of intellect.

I think a lack of the moral courage to ignore peer pressure was a component. Also the laziness to not investigate the facts and numbers.

Dr Faustus> Sadly it looks like a decade or two of learning the hard way regarding destruction of a productive, modern economy by the Voice && Net Zero climate policies. I don’t see anything but complete failure changing peoples minds.

Good luck rickw. My nephew lives there. Runs 3 Architecture offices overseas from there.
