    ey all do. but it’s the manner of the removal that counts and if you think that means legal proceedings you need to think again. We don’t need any more laws. We need to rapidly repeal all the laws that have got us to where we are. She/they can only be removed by local people in a manner that makes the next pollie/journo/copper think, “shit, I’m next”. And “not guilty, your honour”. The cops have chosen sides. They didn’t choose ours.

    My first question is were they not receiving ANY treatments such as Ivermectin or Hydroxychloroquine and zinc? Just nothing?

    ********

    Current recommendations– unless they’ve changed overnight- is, once you’ve been diagnosed with COVID19, is to go home until you start turning blue, at which point you can go to hospital and begin receiving treatment.

    It’s a massive failure of institutionalised medicine in Australia (the TGA & expert “committees” ) that they’ve waved through experimental “vaccines” (not even examining the trial data for themselves), while at the same time recommending against the use of re-purposed drugs such as HCQ & ivermectin with literally decades of safety data & experience in their use, & clinical data supporting the benefits of early use in coronavirus infection.

    Last week, you posted links to responses in Gab, from Woolies and Coles, that check-in via QR codes is voluntary and customers must not be refused entry. I wonder if they are still holding this position.

    **************************

    It needs to be formally challenged.  There’s no doubt that Woolworths’ and Coles’ legal advice is that they cannot enforce it but that would make no difference to the bullies running this state and, as someone here said, you can hardly argue with each and every bored person at the door enforcing it.  I tried to show the exchange to one and he wouldn’t even look at it.  You’d have to call the manager each time.

    The law doesn’t seem to matter much any more in this state.  We seem to have gone beyond it, with the police even being told they could basically do whatever they want and get away with it.

    CH, yes it is. Dr Peter McCulloch addressed this issue during his interview with Tucker Carlson mid year.  He said it is the first time that doctors have refused to treat their sick patients.  He put it down to them being so frightened of contracting the virus that they are effectively ignoring their Hippocratic Oath, so will stand back while people in their care(?) become dangerously ill.

    Trouble is the Police may not even know the law. I was told by the local Police Station that we could not mow the lawns at the local Anglican Church. ServiceNSW said it was fine as it went under Repairs and Maintenance

    Went back last week and asked the Police again and this time they said it was fine. i asked what changed and they told me every policeman would give you a different answer.

    The problem is not him; it’s you.  From reports from others, you’re supposed to be intelligent(?) and well informed(?) and yet most of what I’ve read from you is gibberish, and when it’s not, it ends up becoming outright abusive of whole groups of people.  It’s as if you start slow, speed up and then act like a uncontrolled spinning top of verbal absurdity.

    I don’t blame Mark.  When cohenite wanted to know what you’d said on a previous comment because it made no sense, I said it reminded me of Sheldon not getting enough sleep and becoming manic and incoherent.  It seems that you mostly always end up that way, and then you get pinged.

    Why don’t you go away and get some rest, work out what you want to say and start discussing things rationally? And if you cross the line into matters appalling and repulsive, the “flag comment” button will be engaged forthwith.  In the debate, it’s up to all of us here to be reasonable human beings, notwithstanding the robust nature of a centre-right blog.

    Great got my avatar back, but have to log out and type in stuff, no big deal.

     

    Three Englishmen were drinking in a bar and having spotted an Irishman, they decided to stir things up a bit. So immediately one of the Englishmen walked over to the Irishman, tapped him on the shoulder, and said, “Hey Mick, I hear your St Patrick was actually a drunken loser.”

    “Oh really, hmm, never knew that.” Sighed the Irish guy.
    Puzzled, the Englishman walked back to his buddies. “Well … I told him St. Patrick was a alcoholic loser, and he simply didn’t care.”

    The second Englishman remarked, “Oh .. You just don’t know how to set him off … watch and learn.” . . . With that, the second Englishman walked over to the Irishman, tapped him on the shoulder and said, “Hey pal, I hear your St. Patrick was really a lying, cheating, idiotic, low-life scum!”

    “Oh well, hhmmmm….., I certainly did not know THAT.” And with a shrug of the shoulders the Irish guy took another sip of his Guinness.
    Shocked beyond belief, the Englishman went back to his buddies. “You’re right. He’s unshakable!”

    The third Englishman remarked, “Boys, I’ll really tick him off … just watch this…” and with that, the third Englishman walked over to the Irishman, tapped him on the shoulder and said, “I hear your St. Patrick was really an Englishman!”

    Without batting an eyelid, the Irish guy nods, picks up his beer, smiles and says … “Oh Yeah… Right, .. So THAT’s what your buddies have been trying to tell me.”

    Hmm, via cites in my inbox from other blog posts, I just learned something new.

    Shooting an unarmed woman with other police behind her without trying to restrain her is now an “heroic” act, approved and applauded by some without reservation.

    Restraining a violent thug which resulted in his unfortunate death and following  beatification by the mob while putting a police officer behind bars for practically ever is also just and proper according to them.

    Shame.
