All good; NSW and even victoriastan have very strong self defence rights but unlike the US they do not allow any means such as you describe or a nice little .32 to enable those rights.
In a just world, Clementine Ford would be begging for alms in the street.
.32 is “lethal”. What I suggest is exclusively defensive. Should get around both legal and moral objections.
She also doesn’t need a passport. Monarchy is so cool.
Ain’t it so.
Is Dr Beaugan really Professor Bunyip?
Say it ain’t so!
Evening Zulu.
Roger, it ain’t so.
Yes.
And your point is . . . ?
I could believe many things of Prof Bunyip but not that. 😳
He’ll be one of the “Stolen Generation.”
Greetings and salutations to you, and your’s MV. Mrs MV is making a recovery, I trust?
Explain to me how Clementine Ford keeps her job at Fairfax.
You’d have to wonder. She is so very abusive. Proud of killing her unborn babies.
At the same time, she seems to have a kind and understanding dad and husband who have looked after her and provided for her. white chaps who protected and protect her. So probably that’s why she is doing okay. There are men providing for her and caring for her.
Want to bet on that? Nixon-style resignation in disgrace counts.

OK let me guess Bangkok (miracle lounge). Airline I do not wish to know… Remember a Solomon Island Air flight once where the cabin leaked yup we got rainwater from outside inside…
You know the left really wanted it to be an Israeli Jew murdered by a neo Nazi. Sickos.
You know the left really wanted it to be an Israeli J— murdered by a neo Nazi. Sickos.
I have been brilliantly mulit-tasking … as only a woman can do.
Watched the start of Frantic. Switched to the tennis. In between the ads watched the start of Titanic, which takes a while to get going; then back to Frantic.
After Harrison Ford’s wife was kidnapped in Frantic, I went back to the tennis.
Alex De Minaur was addictive viewing. He lost, but WOW!!
Now, back to Frantic.
Finishing with Titanic … the movie goes for hours!
Arky! I saw you presented yourself late last night.
Tease!
Though it appeared you were teasing the dudes only.

Police asking a citizen for his intentions on Aust Day.
Aust, welcome to the Stasi state.
Regrettably, no.

Trump appears to be separating himself from the hands-on collaborators.
Last I saw he was still pumping Manafort’s tyres. Also some of the collaborators are blood relations.

Monty you will dead long before Trump is impeached.
Want to bet on that? Nixon-style resignation in disgrace counts.
Would be a bit morbid, Monty, betting on your life.
Besides, how would the winner collect after your demise?
Same brand brudda.
Mulit-tasking and dancing as well.
I’ll amend the will to leave a sovereign for JC.
Convey all good wishes to the lady, if you would be so kind?
Thanks Zulu.
Will do.
Indeed.. the correct answer to that query is of course ‘ get fucked’
How do I collect?
Haven’t you noticed the subtle shift in Giuliani’s rhetoric Monty?
Also some of the collaborators are blood relations.
Jnr is the smoking gun.
LOL.
And both successfully.
Definitely a bloke then.
Poor old Monty. It’s been a bad week for his Demrat cult:
They got exposed getting drunk on the beach with lobbyists in Puerto Rico during the shutdown
Ruth Bader Ginsberg continues to miss oral arguments
Support for wall jumps double digits in just days
Their taxpayer funded excursion overseas got cancelled.
#stillnotsickofwinning.
My god. People now frothing over buzzfeed craziness.
Mass hysteria is so great to watch.
Living next door to Ali.
Just remember how fwit Andrews tried to capitalise on this before the murderer was arrested:
What disgusting creatures are urban bugmen.
And the week ended with the most hilarious humiliation of a pack of imbeciles looking to take flight since Dirty Harry posed as a pilot. Also notable was Alexandria “Spick-Spack” Ocasio-Cortez joking about the gang-rape of her political enemies – something that even gave her colleagues pause and cause to reconsider her sanity. On that topic, during the week our own Candy made what I thought was a very astute observation about Miss Cortez. Candy reads her behaviour as manic, grandiose and laden with a saviour complex. I agree with that.
I assume he meant aboriginal culture.
Racist.
Country towns are great.
I just got an invitation to attend an evening BBQ on Australia Day.
The invitation had the date, time and place, but I particularly liked the PS; “bring beer, wear something Aussie, don’t bring meat because Steve ****** is doing a spit roasted sheep. Girls can bring a salad if absolutely necessary”.
Obviously never heard of political correctness in this neck of the woods. Love it.
Tell me what is the purpose of these vigils for murdered women? Why only these women? Why not for murdered women in central Australia or suburban Sydney? What’s with fwit ghoulish inner city Melbournians obsession with murdered rape victims? Did the last two vigils achieve anything? Did they stop a murder? It’s grotesque.
Watch when you can. 30 mins.
A tour of a Sunderland Flying Boat once operated by Ansett Australia / Ansett Flying Boat Services in the early 50’s.
Kermit, is a champ.
No vigils for women killed in Tennant Creek, or Yuendumu.
Nothing about Giuliani’s rhetoric is subtle, but I know what you mean sdfc. He’s trying to get in front of impending revelations that further implicate Trump’s people by openly admitting it, this is a long-established pattern by now. Basically he’s Comical Ali, but instead of conducting pressers on the roof of a hotel he’s shouting answers at reporters while running away under heavy gunfire.
If Trump thinks this is going to end like Iran/Contra with pretty much everyone getting off scot free, he’s going to be sorely disappointed.

I have been thinking the same…..there is something quite weird about it. It is the left partaking of a sacrament….they participate in this cretinous social media exercise and then they walk away feeling so virtuous and so “woke”. But maybe they’re just reflecting the sad reality that is now Melbourne….a shell of a city…captured by the hard left.
Anyway, it makes me feel quite sick.
About those cows that are raped for their cheese – talented girls, making cheese, and having to hand it over on threat of rape.
Anyway the other day I was walking the 7 back to the clearing and came across a bunch of heifers who wre fratenising with the boys on the boundary the paddock next door, just like school kids on the boundary of the school.
The girls had no occasion to be there, their water was 7 or 8 km away, but here they were, full of fizz and batting their eyelashes at the boys as well as suggestively lifting their tails, such flirting had already attracted some of the boys through 3 barbs to join them. I looked away as, unashamed, they explored further intimacies in full daylight and with an interested and excited audience.
Call it rape you silly girl? It is just lust.
Pretty serious stuff. He actually spoke to a Russian at Trump Tower. That’s frightening.
The original copy of this letter is going to be worth a lot of money one day.

To call you a fucking idiot is to do a grave injustice to other fucking idiots. Everything obuma, shrillary and their cohorts in the demorats, the fbi, doj, cia, irs did before, during and after the Steele dossier, the FISA court and mueller witch hunt is so tainted and corrupt that anything Trump has done, which is nothing, makes him look like saint; which of course he is.

My kind of Australia Day, Pedro!
Mine is likely to be barbie by the swimming hole at the river, and sadly minus the spit roasted sheep. This is beef country.
Monty’s meltdown tonight was as crazy as that RBG linkage from our crazies last night.
People are just fucked up. The division is insurmountable
Headline in tomorrows dead tree Oz
Makes a change from “aspiring rapper.”
Why do people keep saying RBG?
It’s RPG … RPG … Rocket Propelled Grenade … RPG.
Fiar go, Cohenite.
It takes a lot of dedicated training to become an accomplished idiot. like Monty.
Ed is one of the best follows on twitter.
He doesn’t muck around.
Vigiltainment.
It’s now a thing.
ABC Online – which again describes the Israeli victim as an “Arab-Israeli” to ensure its readership doesn’t lose interest.
To be fair, CL, ABC probs didnt realise there actually are arabs in Israel and are still exploring that novelty. What can it mean, to be an arab- Israeli who studies overseas and why wouldnt she want to wear the freedom sack? Or at least the freedom hat?
On Line Oz is still áspiring rapper.’
I think you’re right, Cassie. In the end it’s all about them. Augh.
No. Not that I’d admit it, even if I were. His problems with his sex life were well deserved.
Also, from the front page of the Oz, it would seem that the Indon people smugglers are keeping an eye on the political scene in Australia….I’ll bet good money the first boats show up three days after the election of the Shorten Government…
Pretty serious stuff. He actually spoke to a Russian at Trump Tower. That’s frightening.
Little Don met with a Russian to get dirt on Hillary. Then big Don is announcing at his rallies that they are about to get dirt on Hillary. All just a coincidence apparently.
Spot on Helen.
The concept of a “Palestinian Arab from Israel” travelling the world without impediment from Tel Aviv (nay Jerusalem) must have popped their circuit breakers.
About now, Titanic gets exciting!
Channel 7
He didn’t, but lets say he did get dirt on Crooked. He wasn’t formerly part part of the campaign, so how is that illegal?

If proved it’s still collusion. Are you saying big Don should cut little Don loose?
Like all virtue signalling, it is more about signal than virtue.
No-one was seriously going to go all the way to Bundoora… uuugh!
It is in Zone 2 FFS!
The resolve of the mourners would be waning by the time they got to Thornbury.
A few might hang on into Preston, but no-one is going all the way to the Bundoora terminus.

You and Monty are pathetic losers with you conspiracy theories.
Worse than Anne, at least she is funny.
They might show up, Zulu, but I’ll wager a fiver they get turned back by an OSB patrol boat.
Shorten is nothing if not cunning. Abbott has already demonstrated how to bring in as many country shoppers as you could possibly want, by air, without disturbing the local sheep.
Dude, are you on meth?
You and Monty are pathetic losers with you conspiracy theories.
I don’t know why you think it’s a conspiracy theory, you’re a bit behind.
Little Don’s emails teeing up the meeting and what he was after are in the public domain.
Mueller is going to announce the Second Trump Term. A total and complete bust.

You may be right Mark, but if you’re not Big Don is going to go off. All caps.
So the Irish lass was a victim of the left’s soft approach on crime, the Aussie comedienne was a victim of the left’s soft approach to mental health and the Israeli lass was a victim of the left’s soft approach to crime, mental health and colonialism. This is why the vigils. It absolves them of their role and of any responsibility for making hard decisions to reduce the risk of future attacks. Vigils are quick, easy and care free.
Yes siree.
Any day now.
Just wait.
You’ll see.

Anyone remember the last girl murdered in Melbourne? The aspiring comedian who would have regaled us all with “Tony Abbott is a poo bum pee face” jokes? All the tears and flowers and speeches about violence against women?
Less than a month later the very same people were out screaming in the face of Lauren Southern, abusing her, attacking her, forcing her to walk around with bodyguards…
Correct.
As opposed to Hillary paying a lawyer to pay a company to pay a foreign agent to pay Russians to make up up dirt on Trump.
You idiot.
Tonight I went to a school reunion which turned into a lezzo wedding.
It was a pathetic ceremony which utterly trivialised real marriage. First there was the ridiculous paying of respect to “elders past and present” before moving on to the vows which were about what they take from the fridge and watch on tele.
Embarrassing.
Jupes, did they complete the official documentation involved in a legal marriage?
I’m interested in following a few such cases.
The government should investigate and sack ABC journos who used third party videos on animal cruelty shot by known animal abusers paid by Animals Australia to get abuse footage. Journalism 101: do not use third party footage.
I assume so however I didn’t pay too much attention. The celebrant made a big deal about it being legal now that homo marriage legislation has been passed.
Sounds like my worst nightmare come to life.
Sure but I’ve got more chance of winning the $100 mil lotto than that ever happening.
Worse. The whole thing occurred before we had even had a drink.
Joel Fitzgibbons was on 2gb suggesting it was undemocratic for politicians not being allowed to shut down an Australian industry. What a fuckwit.
OMG this is the first time I’ve listened to fitzgibbon and he is a stark raving fucking lunatic. How did we end up with such a fucking idiot in parliament.
Thanks, Jupes.
I’m interested because my own experience is that gay relationships rarely last longer than two years. It is going to be interesting when two such people split up, then want to repeat the exercise with someone else.
At that point they will discover that our bigamy laws now apply to them, and they will have to go through the full two year process of obtaining a decree nisi then a year later, a decree absolute.
Only then will they be able to remarry without committing bigamy, which is a jailable offense.
As opposed to Hillary paying a lawyer to pay a company to pay a foreign agent to pay Russians to make up up dirt on Trump.
A two wrongs make a right argument.
You dipshit.
Fitzgibbon justifying shutting down cattle train because of Indonesian abbatoirs. Go be the fucking Indo minister, moron.
Fitzgibbon we will export coal for others to develop but fuck it if we will have cheap coal fired electricity here.
We’re you warned about the wedding Jupes?
And still not a crime.
Fuxk me.
This goes to the heart of the new craziness. They accept every deprvaity but won’t abide even one drink to dull the the degeneracy.
And still not a crime.
The Trumpy fan club each way bet.
No but if you think it should be selective then your a partisan hack.

All too true. Post of the night.
Vic Alhadeff is a paid up fanboi of Mutti Merkel’s new Germany.
Why the fuck would he go to a Russian for dirt on Hillary? God knows when I want to find out more about beef, I ask a stamp collector.
Trump knew more about Hillary that Bill Clinton did. Fake news with saggy tits.
Di Crappio drowns. How does that ever get old? 🤷♂️
