Go away.
April 18, 2007Scurry away back to Farrars, we don’t host trolls here.
Burn in fucking hell.
Note to the next wannabe: Shoot yourself FIRST.
The current sponsorship balance for the WMD Fling is standing at a big fat -$1,500 due to the total lack of support from Wairarapa busnisesses - thanks guys, you’re on my list.
However the Carterton Mayor, Gary McPhee has been very helpful with some advertising and refuse removal. I’ve also been offered some free editing and narration for a video so if anyone has an interest in showing up and filming everything that moves or has a camera they’re brave enough to loan out please let me know.
There’s also a pressing need for framing timber and ply sheets.
On the up side I get to have an interesting chat with an insurance agent about getting public liability insurance for medieval siege weapons. I’m just more interesting than most people I guess.
Did I mention the cannon that may be coming?
Might need some cabbages as well. Something about them being the best incendiary
munition… I may have said too much.
See not having any native predators it’s really hard to come up with a title for a good political assassination thriller. When you read “Day of the Jackel” you know it’s not going to be about Miss Williams agonising over which bonnet to wear to the market with which to impress Mr Bingsley the local vicar.
But is it evolution and the lack of quadrepedal carnavors and an overabundance of things that are basically overweight blue chickens and go “bloop… bloop” that has kept our politicians safe from the ravages of deranged gunmen and overzealous Girl Guides trying to make quota during cookie week?
Or is that the environment does not, or more to the point, has not existed in New Zealand where a citizen would feel the need to express themselves in a manner that could make a best seller with a cool cover and the authors name in embossed gold and bigger than the title? New Zealand is one of the very few countries in the world where our political staff (they might be “leaders” to you but I have standards of what I’ll follow) have not been targeted but some loon with high powered bunny gun and three names.
But simply because it has never happened that does not stand that it it never WILL happen. Before the Queen St riots it was unthinkable that joe citizen would spontaneously rampage though Main St NZ because some long haired self impressed half pint jerk off with a microphone told them to - yet, it happened.
Before the Springbok tour the days of massive civil unrest were well and truely left in our almost forgotten past - yet….
Before the waterfront strike it was unthinkable that a New Zealand government would make it illegal to give food to hungry children. But that is EXACTLY what they did in an attempt to break the union. It was also unthinkable that North Africa vets manning vickers machine guns would open up on a crowd of protesters - but they came bloody close to doing that too.
It is unthinkable that our government would suspend free speech and jail people without trial - but they did it. Then they bulldozed the camps and burned the evidence, also unthinkable.
But of course that was back during WWII and they’d never jail someone for disagreeing with them now… would they? I’m sure Tim Selwyn would like an answer to that one after the cops took time off from their important revenue gathering duties to crawl up his ass with a microscope.
On Sept 10th Sept 11th was unthinkable and an Auckland born environmental lawyer wrestling his way into a terrorist controlled cockpit to help prevent that plane reaching its target could not have been sold as a pitch to any Hollywood exec. Yet…
Our long and recent history is nothing but the unthinkable happening over and over again.
So it is of course unthinkable that in New Zealand any person could feel that they are so disenfranchised, so prevented from having an input into the process, so legally constrained that they have no hope that they would see no other option when seeking to replace the current government than to exchange their freedom for the life of politician.
It is unthinkable isn’t it?
Its not like our government is seeking to change election rules to their own benefit, or to methodically reduce the ability of Her Majesty’s loyal opposition to campaign, or to outright halt free speech in violation of the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act?
Or to put it another say someone like Tim Selwyn only a couple of shades more out on the edge is already in a place where he’s pissed off enough to put an axe through a politicians office window and could be sent to jail for having written that he thinks everyone should be trying to get the current government out of the 9th floor. Add that his girlfriend just left him for his cousin, throw in that the IRD is doing a dance on his life - and gosh isn’t that a story we’re familiar with and don’t the IRD worry about Mig strikes these days . Throw in that he’s got access to a rifle and the rest is not only less than unthinkable, its predictable.
And why is it that in Helen Clark’s “benign strategic environment” that an unprecedented upgrade of security has been undertaken in parliament?
The fact is that politicians are not afraid of us. They bloody well should be because their continued obvious contempt. autocratic & dictatorial treatment and manipulation of our laws is pissing a LOT of people off.
If Michael Cullen went into a pub and spoke to any one person the way he talks to 4 million he’d get a smack in the mouth.
But what we are looking at now is way past one person being a rude offensive self impressed teacher in a suit in desperate need of a dose of reality. We have the systematic dismantling of our democracy by a morally and financially run down failed group of power mad socialists.
We have never had a political assassination in New Zealand because the conditions did not exist for it to be possible. That is changing, step by step.
Be afraid.
Why not stop by the store and pick up a project for the kids while the weathers crap and they’re stuck inside.
Our operator is standing by…
And why not stop by and take part in the democratic process New Zealand style. Thats where 90% of people vote against something and the Klark Kronie Klub call us all names and tell us to shut up and do what we’re told because we work for them not the other way round… hang on.
Does jellymeat REALLY have to smell like cat shit BEFORE the cat has eaten it?
22AD - the ranged weapons division of Dolphin Foundry - is now live for all your catapulting needs with kit sets, plans, events news and an R&D section so you get to see all the things I break so you don’t have to.
You’ll find things going up, getting added, getting changed more or less at random as I get it sorted out but it is functioning so yay me.
Special thanks to Whaleoil for the hosting. Whaleoil by the way is not to be stopped by a small case of someone thinking free speech is only for socialists and laws are only for conservatives and you’ll find him back in operation after taking a short rest for some quality family time while his team of geeks got thinks back up and running.
In conclusion I’d just like to say:
FREE TIBET! FREE TIBET! FREE TIBET! FREE TIBET! FREE TIBET!
Thank you.
