Kerr ain’t a Person Of Colour, or to say the least she’s never been feted as one by a media which is loudly cock-a-hoop with her being a golden boot Superstar and a sappho to boot
Ergo, she be “white”
Ergo, she can’t abuse someone else for being white
AND
it was so scandalously shameful that she had to bury it or miss the world cup
SO
Guessing by the composition of the British constabulary these days, its much more likely she called some plod n*gger
or, m*nkey
…or, dune c**n

Police will allege Football superstar Samantha Kerr called an officer “a stupid white bastard,”
In the early 1970s, 55,000 Spurs fans at White Hot Lane would sing, “the referee’s a bastard” whenever a footballing decision went against our Spurs Team. How to arrest 55,000 people all at once for saying the word bastard?
Not only that, but Caucasians are not white. More a pinky white in fact.
And here, in Convict’s Paradise, I am called a Pommy Bastard. No offence meant by the Colonials of course.
Maybe the bad word said was the word “stupid”. LOL.
Dunno Sal
Hunch says it’s a hotter story that just “stupid white bastard”, which would only be weaponized by a very thin slice of gammon

Re art by Caillebotte- I remember studying him for evidence of how the photographic process can distort the better judgement of an artist. Particularly the failure to compose.
Frinstance look at Young Man’s shoe against the skirting, and the lens distortion of the balcony railing posts, and the window beyond his chin which muddies the whole jawline.
Not that I don’t like the bloke, plus his interest in photography led him to do countless studies of glass, gloss, reflection and water.
I attended a work presentation the other day. Presented by a Vice President from Head Office in Europe …responsible for financing. When quizzed about residual values of EVs in Europe the term he used was ‘disastrous’. 3-4 year old EVs returning are worth v little. Who would want to buy an old phone or old tech? Some people hunting a bargain may want to buy them but not a lot. No percentages available. Still want to buy an EV? Still think ‘renewable energy’ is cheap?

Sam Kerr has made little of her Indian heritage and it’s best she keeps it that way.

RE: Kerr. This will be dismissed because only stupid white bastards can be racist.
Nikki Haley as a Democrat plant might not be true, but I can forgive people for thinking so. It has been rumoured that large donations came flowing from that direction. The BBC lent weight to that thesis when they interviewed two “Haley voters” and showed them to be TDS sufferers. In fact one of them was happy to admit (i) that he tended to be a Democrat supporter to the extent that he volunteered to assist their campaigns, and worse (ii) that he was still only 17 and would not turn 18 until after the election, so not a voter at all.
The new meme (even endorsed by Fox News senior political commentator) is that Trump “needs to win over those moderates like the Haley voters”. This view completely ignores the huge vote he got last time, likely to be bigger again this time, and that he only “lost” because of the dodgy ballot manipulations in the weewee hours.
What if his parents aren’t married and he has a below average IQ? It is an agreed fact that he is white…
If I called members of a certain WA family “STI ridden black rapists” that also would be a factual statement.

State taken over power of councils so virtually no building regulations . Federal government migration policy is the reason given.

I thought the same thing Wally. The man and foreground are all wrong. The man appears to be placed there as an afterthought. The stone balustrade is not in perspective at the base. The man appears further away while the balustrade comes to the fore. The angle of the window precludes the reflection of the man. The man’s shoe is not against the skirting, its a shadow. The carpet continues to the balustrade.
An issue overlooked in the Aussie Sam shock horror imbroglio: the complainant is a Metropolitan Police personage.

Monty, only 8% of Haley voters are Republicans. Maybe even less than that given Dem activists lie to exit pollsters.
And when you adjust for the number of votes Trump got it’s looking like 3%.
On the other hand Biden got 16 million fake votes last time, so I suspect that will go up. Almost all the machinery is still in place. But Biden is so on the nose they’re going to have their work cut out.

Nikki Haley Finally Bows Out
“Nikki Haley was slaughtered on SuperTuesday and ended up with 89 delegates against President Trump’s 995. Even the Democrats, who were her main supporters, gave up. The strategy will be that they refuse to certify the vote when Trump wins relying on the dissent of their three Justices on the Supreme Court claiming that the 14th Amendment is self-executing so Congress need not pass any legislation. Trump gets no trial. Why bother? We are too stupid to have the right to vote. That’s why everyone rejects democracy and when Trump won in 2016, it was called “populism” not democracy. Once you hand power to anyone, they never want to hand it back.
The Democrats will just refuse to honor the votes of the people. Their argument that Trump was an insurrectionist to try to stop the certification in 2021, they will do the same without the people so that by their definition it will not be an insurrection – just backroom politics as usual. It will be the people who have the burden to prove they violated their oath to defend the Constitution. There would be no peaceful transition of power.”

He is hated by the swamp for all that but mostly because he revealed them for the useless, hate filled bastards they are. He is also arguably the best stand up comedian ever.
In Bang-Bang News:
The armorer for the Alec Baldwin movie Rust has been found guilty in the shooting death of the film’s cinematographer.
A jury found that Hannah Gutierrez-Reed negligently allowed a live bullet to get into the gun on the set of Western which Baldwin used to accidentally shoot dead Halyna Hutchins, the movie’s cinematographer.
After two hours of deliberations at the court in Santa Fe, New Mexico, a jury found her guilty on the manslaughter count, but not the tampering with evidence charge.
Gutierrez-Reed, 26, the daughter of respected film industry armorer Thell Reed, faces up to 18 months in jail. She showed little emotion as the verdicts were read, but a family member broke down while sitting behind the now-convicted felon.
The verdict means that attention now turns to July when Baldwin, 65, will go on trial in the same courthouse for involuntary manslaughter. If found guilty he faces 18 months in jail as well.

While training and competing at a professional level comes with its own challenges, those who are practising Muslims have an additional test: during the holy period of Ramadan they abstain from eating and drinking from dawn until sunset.
This year, Ramadan falls between Saturday, 9 March and Monday, 8 April, meaning it will occur during Round 19-22 for the Liberty A-League and Rounds 20-23 for the Isuzu UTE A-League.

This is how you run out of luck. h/t Donald Horne
In the 14th century tens of millions of people died from the so-called Black Death (this estimate is largely based on sampling taken from parish records and is probably pretty sound).
We are also told that the deaths were all caused by a disease known as bubonic plague which is characterised by dark pustules.
Of course, it makes absolute no sense. Why did the bubonic plague cause tens of millions of deaths in the 14th century but since then has never ever caused anything like that amount of carnage?
Apparently the rats and fleas decided to wreak havoc for a few decades in the 14th century but before that and ever since then they’ve been content to hurt the odd sporadic individual but they no longer want to hurt people en masse. Rats and fleas with a conscience you see.
FMD. What an utter joke. How do people believe this nonsense?
Here is the actual story:
A few people had sores and died. And then people panicked. Doctors especially panicked. Panic isn’t unusual but it doesn’t typically get as out of control as it did in the 14th century (or 2020). They diagnosed absolutely everything as the plague no matter if they had “bubos” or not (sound familiar?). Anybody who looked a bit tired or coughed or sneezed or slipped on a banana peel was diagnosed with the plague.
And once you were diagnosed with the plague your life was over. Not because of the plague or whatever you actually had but because the doctors would proceed to execute you. They would tell you to eat glass, drink mercury and arsenic, have yourself whipped, live in a sewer or whatever else would most likely kill you and then, when you died, the doctor would say “oh no! That damn plague! If only we had given them our amazing treatments sooner!”
Rabies is exactly the same.
Doctors believe that rabies has a 100 per cent fatality rate. As such, doctors believe that there is no treatment too extreme for someone who they think has the condition. The Milwaukee protocol is one such treatment – literally put the patient into a coma and give them as many drugs as possible to kill them. Then declare the treatment to be an astounding success except for the fact that rabies was just too mean.
The vaccine is horrific but it appears to “work” not because it works but because if you get the vaccine, doctors might not treat you as though you have the virus which means you will probably be spared the other even more horrific treatments.
The single most important lesson of history isn’t about war or even economics it is this:
Doctors don’t make their diagnoses based on symptoms alone.

Queensland students win right to appeal school suspensions
Parents and students in Queensland will be granted the right to appeal against short-term suspensions in public schools.
Schools are breaching children’s human rights when they suspend badly behaved students from school, new government-funded research asserts, as some families won the right on Wednesday to appeal against suspensions.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, as well as children with disabilities, will be given extra support at school as an alternative to suspensions, under legislative changes introduced by the Queensland government on Wednesday.
Parents and students will be granted the right to appeal against short-term suspensions in public schools.
Queensland Education Minister Di Farmer said she would “improve the suspension and disciplinary process’’.
She said that First Nations students, as well as those with a disability and children as young as four in the first year of prep, account for half of all students suspended from Queensland state schools.
She said principals would still retain the right to suspend students, but would have to provide extra support to disruptive students.
The new school rules coincide with demands by Professor Anna Sullivan – director of the Centre for Research in Educational and Social Inclusion at the University of South Australia – for “punitive-free education’’.
She said excluding children from school was a “punitive policy’’ that breached the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, on the grounds of their right to an education, discrimination, and a failure to work “in the best interests of the child’’.
As the lead researcher in a study published in the latest issue of Critical Studies in Education, Professor Sullivan lashed out at “neoliberals’’ for failing to recognise that disruptive students are often vulnerable children with learning disabilities or a troubled home life.
“It is easy to blame the problems of schooling on the personal situation and character of individuals, which is to say, on ‘disruptive’ students, ‘dud’ teachers and/or ‘negligent’ parents, rather than on social systems,” the study states.
“Many people act as though the causes of individual conduct and feelings are somehow divorced from the wider structural and institutional arrangements of society.”
The study, one of a series funded through a $324,000 grant from the Australian Research Council, shows that the students most likely to be suspended or expelled from school are boys, students with a disability, Indigenous students, children in foster care and those living in poor families.
The researchers warn that children’s misbehaviour is being “medicalised’’ through diagnosis of “conditions’’ such as oppositional defiant disorder, conduct disorder, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
“The medicalisation of student behaviour justifies the exclusion of students with a growing number of behavioural disorders that are perceived to be beyond the capacity of schools to address,’’ the report states.
“Exclusion is then seen to be a sensible and safe response to an intractable problem.’’
Professor Sullivan said that students are at greater risk of dropping out of school altogether, drinking and smoking, and turning to crime after they are expelled or suspended.
Given that vulnerable groups were most at risk of school suspension, she said, “exclusion policies are ultimately discriminatory’’.
“We also see situations where children with disabilities – some on prescribed medications – are being excluded from school on the basis that ‘they have problems already’,’’ she said.
“Instead of helping these students, the policies are exacerbating their struggles.
“What we need is more listening, more empathy to students at risk, and a willingness to challenge the impact of wider social inequalities including poverty, race, housing, and unemployment on the most vulnerable people in our society.
“These things cannot simply be left at the school gate.’’
Queensland’s legislative reforms will require school principals to write up “student support plans” for all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, as well as those with a disability and prep students who start school as young as four, so that suspensions are only used as a last resort.
“It should be noted, the amendments will not change a principal’s right to suspend students where appropriate and necessary, or reduce the support available nor the review rights for other students,’’ the bill’s explanatory statement says.
Oz, with the comments going ape
A 22-year-old man has been arrested over the disappearance of missing mother-of-three Samantha Murphy.
The Ballarat local is not connected to the Murphy family.
The man was arrested shortly after 6am on Wednesday at his Ballarat home by Missing Persons Squad detectives, Victoria Police said on Thursday.
He remains in custody, however no charges have been laid.
The arrest marks the first significant breakthrough in the case that has sent shockwaves across Australia.

Because “punitive-free” youth justice has worked so well.
Because if you’re ATSI you’re likely to be a troublemaker?
This is not “progressive.”
We’re heading back to the 1950s and the curse of low expectations for indigenous children.
Bubonic and pneumonic plague are a bacterial infection. It’s still around, and many people in the US contract it since the bacterium is naturally present in prairie dogs and squirrels.
Being a bacterium antibiotics can kill it handily though. Which is why plague is nothing to worry about, and hasn’t been since WW2. It’s unlikely to develop resistance to antibiotics like MRSA since it is so rare. Better urban hygiene also helped, and insecticides to kill off fleas.
Gotta luv it .. Full-on condemnation for “monkee” but lotza sympathy for “stupid white bastard” .. seems when “Sam” sez it .. “why is this a problem” but when an Islander thugby player sez something .. on the field, whist sober .. hang ‘im high……

A touch of the vapours …
She would have done well in a 19th century novel about a pore younge maiden removed of her virtue by a cad, liar and bounder. The virtue being regained by a large trunk of cash and grande tour of european climes, starting with rural france.
Here is the actual story:
A few people had sores and died.
https://www.worldhistory.org/article/1536/procopius-on-the-plague-of-justinian-text–comment/
Rather, it’s who (and what “race”) is the alleged victim.
Whenever I ask people how come doctors don’t immediately die after starting their jobs given diseases are so nasty and contagious they respond by saying “they wear masks and are vaccinated!!!” Completely oblivious to the thousands of years where vaccines and masks were non-existent. Not to mention all the other patients who are not vaccinated or masked.
Same thing here.
Apparently the reason there wasn’t a Black Death in the 15th century or the 8th century or 1000 BC or in poor countries today with scant access to medicine is because of the invention of antibiotics in the mid-20th century.
The funny thing though about abx is that, whilst they can sometimes reduce symptoms (proven with challenge, dechallenge, rechallenge) they can’t possibly work the way we think they do. Many people with symptoms who take certain abx will see their symptoms improve even when the supposedly culpable bacteria are shown to be resistant to the abx (in a petrie dish). Conversely (but proving the same thing), many people with symptoms show no improvement from a certain abx despite the fact that the supposedly culpable bacteria does indeed die out from the abx in a petrie dish!
IOW antibiotic “resistance” is complete nonsense. Which makes sense because if it was, nobody would still be using penicillin today (given that there was ostensibly “resistance” to it immediately after it was first used). Antibiotics poison the body. The response to being poisoned is to stop healing in the current form and focus on dealing with the poison – much like how if you get drunk whilst on the flu you will feel (temporarily) amazing. As healing is what typically makes us feel sick, antibiotics make us feel better – but only temporarily. The healing will still take place but the body will have to do it from an even weaker state.

In other news Bankwest is closing all its branches due to the annoying and costly phenomenon where Bankwest customers keep coming into branches and demanding cash and other services.
Luckily the customers don’t need these things, as mentioned by Bankwest, since they can use a mobile phone for everything. Where ‘everything’ means applying for a house loan and making payments on said loan – all other services being useless in 2024.

I should prefer her and her erminmince greeese to feature in a more racy 19th century novel – about the sensual delights of being whipped until bloody.
For shame. Only a cad mentions details about a pore maidans undergarments and other accoutrements maintaining her virtue and reputation.
Vigilantism is when citizens have to protect themselves because the law will not.
It’s not legal for me to give that freak the advice I think he needs.

You have never caused pore maiden to shed her undergarments…
Hmm. They froze my account as after I paid off debt and started making deposits, they said I needed to do KYC stuff all over again.

I woke up with a broken leg this morning, jagged bone jutting out from torn skin, gangrenous stench, flies crawling around, disappearing into and emerging again from the tented flesh around the wound.
Instead of reaching for the Nurofen as I normally would, I instead decided to ‘work’ on my state of mind. So I put on my tracky daks and took a brief walk, had a shower, a shave, and then drunk a strong coffee on the balcony.
Blow me down, all tissues are now properly composed, the skin seamless, smell gone, nothing left but a bunch of pissed off flies.
I suppose that Figures.
Thats in Volume three, where the (not so) ypunge maidan is exposed to wicked ways and devices on the continent, casting aside her loyal mate out of boredom and need to make economies.
Final volume sees her returning home, penniless, only to become one of Canbras most famous and riche S&M ladies with a large pool of clients, mostly politicians.
So if a bunch of refugees have a sexual crisis, they can randomly rape women too?

Like mole (?) said the other day, imagine if one of these kiddos drowned.
The Cable Guy can’t win with friends like the Rt Hon Megan Krakouer.

Oh firetruck !
Megan Krakouer said four children, including a six and seven-year-old seen in a video that has made headlines worldwide, sneaked in because their mum’s car had broken down and they could not go to the beach.
Soooooo no problems with trespassing, swimming unsupervised and wagging school ..
cos “hot day” .. maybe time to shut all schools in Broome over summer so kid scan go to beach .. then ..?
I’m guessing Megan K would be first to volunteer to drive kids to the beach on hot days. At her own cost and risk.
Perhaps not.
Understandable. I’d be feeling a bit wobbly myself.
Mediation is a tedious process; key in which is the mediator explaining, re-explaining, and then stressing the costs and risks of going on you litigation. It’s the Acid Test, specifically designed to show you the abyss and make you review your position very, very objectively.
The OZ quotes “legal sources” as estimating the cost of the separate legal teams at $50-$70,000/day. A six week trial would see Grateful Boy’s largesse largely evaporate unless Team Chubby is able to somehow flick costs back to Reynolds.
Damages plus Reynolds’ costs, if it came to that, would mean the unthinkable: gainful employment.

Australia’s looming homelessness crisis in a few figures:
Rents up 8.5% in February ’24 (CoreLogic)
Rental vacancy rate down to 0.7% in February ’24 (Domain)
[Therefore, the middle class is now competing with the lower class for scarce rental properties.]
Population growth 626 000 in 2022/23 (ABS)
Only 162 000 new homes/units built (net) in 2022/23 (ABS)
[Housing approvals are declining; we can’t keep up with the demand caused by high immigration numbers. VIC leads the nation in this respect]
The Albovilles (communities of urban tent dwellers) are going to get bigger.
Britnee and sensual delights should not be seen in the same sentence little in person.
So was this pool on private property? Or a council pool? Or what?
Since Yemen is all the rage now – Houthis et al. Here is a joke to lighten the mood:
A Yemeni father gives his son a gun. The boy is about to be married. The father says “Mohammed, take this gun if she comes to the bed and is not a virgin, shoot her immediately.”
Fortunate the wedding night goes well.
The next night Mohammed shoots her.

thefrollickingmole:
Why did you bother with this?
What difference does it make if buboes have occurred at other times in history? The point is that rats and fleas have *always* been ubiquitous and, if they were the cause of the “Black Death”, then nobody would have ever been able to coalesce into a city.
It’s worth noting that these other “outbreaks” that you point out suffered from the exact same issue I already explained – that doctors will always diagnose disease X if they think that disease X is the epidemic du jour, even in patients whose symptoms look nothing like what disease X is supposed to look like.
In addition, whenever you see estimates like “millions of people died because evil Europeans brought smallpox/plague/sniffles with them” the first thing you have to ask yourself is: how did they know that many people died?
In the case of the Black Death we have parish data in Europe – it doesn’t give population data but it is a reasonably good sampling that enables us to make broad (but real) estimates. But in the case of, say, Native Americans, we have precisely nothing. Nobody has the slightest clue how many people died following Cortes’ exploits. For all we know, outside direct conflict, the death rates amongst the indigenous might have been similar to what they were prior to the invasion. We have no population data and no sampling data. We have nothing. Any estimates of deaths, no matter how broad, aren’t estimates – they’re fabrications – and the idea we know what they died of is complete lunacy.
Same for this Indian “plague” story. Was a census taken before and after to see the population change that give rise to the “estimate” of ten million deaths? And was cause of death ascertained in each death (and based purely on symptoms rather than beliefs)? Hint: of course they weren’t, the numbers and causes were completely made up.
Most people have absolutely no idea just how disgustingly retarded epidemiology is. 100 per cent of people who understand epidemiology would never ever describe themselves as an epidemiologist because it makes econometrics look clever.
One of the greatest articles about the uselessness of epidemiology is called “Measles deaths in Africa” by Greg Beattie. Basically, he proved that the WHO just make everything up. And I do mean everything.
This Britney person you all keep banging on about has to be the least interesting thing I have ever encountered.

So a named disease ravages a population.
Figures believes that the correct dignosis was “it wasnt named disease, but a imbalance in their humours and a build up of black bile in the liver”.
And Monty, stop making me agree with you on something, please switch to Figures side.

– wasn’t ol’ mate’s yard and pool the subject of five other trespass occasions?
– aren’t these kids supposed to be in skool?

Brittle Knees was used as a stalking horse for the “Morriswine has a woman problem” by the ALP, who , on winning power granter her more than 2 million dollars for services redered.
I think Morriswine was on the nose enough to lose anyway, but the fact remains a possibly false allegation was effectively funded and run by the ALP which may have cost the Libs seats and changed the government of Australia.
In effect they ran the “E Jean Carrol” to smear their way to victory.

The ABC is like a 2-Dimensional creature constantly perplexed by the workings of a 3-Dimensional universe. Their Marxist schema of power and conflict politics are constantly caught out by interplay of such things as innovation, reflection, the realignment of loyalties in response to newly identified trends, family, community, compassion – they are time and again predicting what does not happen.
And they dress like shit.
Such wit!
The problem is that it is actually your side that has to deal with this problem. Germs are ubiquitous.
Right now you have tens of trillions of bacteria in and on you. And not just the nice bacteria but all sorts of dastardly ones such as e coli, strep, diphtheria, pertussis – probably even plague. And that goes along with the hundreds of trillions of what doctors call “viruses” in your body.
Obviously you are dead. Nobody could survive if even a tiny tiny fraction of germs were pathogenic.
No. You’re racist so sit up and shut up:
