      comment under that item:
      “The entire Western world needs a revolution.”
      Yes, it does.Either that or some very high profile lynchings by angry crowds of some very high profile people.

    Virtue signallers take note:
    ‘A recent Danish study has concluded that, in fact, plastic shopping bags are much better for the environment than all the alternatives. Working on the assumption that plastic shopping bags are reused — as bin liners, for instance — the results of the government study show that regular cotton bags must be used 7100 times to make them better for the environment than plastic bags. Organic cotton bags need 20,000 reuses and paper needs 43 reuses — which is surely a big ask…’

    A French hero – Arnaud Beltrame, a lieutenant-colonel in the gendarmerie, who swapped himself for a hostage in a supermarket siege, has died after he was hit by several bullets. http://falfn.com/CrusaderRabbit/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_rose.gif

    Just finished watching the BBC movie “Eroica” for the third time.
    Bloody wonderful music and a great piece of film making.
    A must for fans of Beethoven.

  5. Ronbo says:

    So the Establishment thinks by signing the gloated federal Budget bill that Trump has been successfully rolled and will lose his base supporters – and they intend to finish him off by way of the bogus Russian Conspiracy Mueller Witch Hunt…but I wonder if Trump has plans for the Establishment overthrow? When faced with a parallel option of ruin by the Roman Senate, Caesar marched on Rome – and overthrew the Senate.

    Yes, it’s beginning to look like for his personal survival and that of his family, Trump’s options are either to surrender and hope for mercy from a mad dog Leftist Establishment, or to double down and become the President For Life and overthrow the reactionaries. When faced with a parallel situation, Julius Caesar opted to March On Rome and overthrow the Roman Establishment.

    The question of the day is will Trump do the same? I would say at this point the American Republic as founded is no longer a free representative democracy where We The People rule – we are, in fact, ruled by an oligarchy. Thus the question of freedom is not operative – This is dictatorship, straight up!

    Therefore, if dictatorship be our lot then the choice for the average American must for a dictator like Trump who reflects our nationalist pride in the United States. The other option being an International Socialism where the United States is just another country on a world map ruled by an Globalist elite.

    Stay Tuned – This next year should be very interesting.

    • KG says:

      “…we are, in fact, ruled by an oligarchy. Thus the question of freedom is not operative – This is dictatorship, straight up!”
      And it’s the same across almost all of the West.

        • KG says:

          How many people do you suppose recognize that fact, Fred? As a percentage?

          • Well actually KG, I would say since the great depression government has slowly become bigger. I would say when Obama was in office, we had few freedoms left if any and that’s Americans we’re talking about.

            If that’s the way it is in America, how bad it must be in other countries.

            • KG says:

              Just so, Warren.

              • Fred says:

                “ruled by an oligarchy”

                So KG, I think the number is very, very high. Now they may not use the dictionary definition of the term oligarchy but here is the problem. I would say that 90% of the population knows our “leadership” is immoral, unjust, and bankrupt, or whatever term you want to use. The real problem is that they want to use this same corruption for their “redemptive” purposes supposing that if MY GUY can just be in charge then WE can fix it.

                Globally the new co-religions of secular humanism, moral relativism, and diversityism are wrecking us and therefore our children.

                Specifically in America this is true as well, but now back to my point about wanting to be the group in charge. Every article, every section, every clause(there’s no such thing as a “clause” but I’ll play along to make my point) of the constitution is willfully violated every second of every day by every government across the country. The people don’t know God, they know not from where their liberty hails. They have never read the constitution and haven’t the vaguest of ideas what the natural rights of men are. This goes for the Magna Carte as well. Nobody has read it, nobody follows it, and nobody cares. Back to the constitution; a contract that nobody has read, nobody follows, and nobody cares about is no contract at all. It’s null and void.

                Sorry for the length of this post but it’s critical to understanding.

                “…And his sons walked not in his ways, but turned aside after lucre, and took bribes, and perverted judgment. Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah, and said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations…And Samuel told all the words of the Lord unto the people that asked of him a king. And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots. And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots. And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers. And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants. And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants. And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work. He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants. And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the Lord will not hear you in that day.”

                But the people didn’t give a shit. They wanted their ____________(insert your favorite force of law at gunpoint idea here) implemented by a king. Everybody keeps asking government to do ___________. Well, you’ll get your wish, you’ll get your king to give you ______________ at gunpoint, for your own good, or else, and the LORD will not hear you.

                The writers of US constitution knew this passage and specifically did not give a king to the people though many asked for one.

                How far we’ve left the things of God and how far we’ve left the reformation and made government our savior. And yes, it’s controlled by an oligarchy.

                • Pascal says:

                  It’s never too long for those who understand Fred. Thing is those who understand are not the problem. It’s not even the ignorant because they can be taught. It’s those who choose to be ignoramuses and insist that the rest of us shut up so that the ignorant stay that way. “It’s not that my head is in the sand, it’s just that I don’t want to know” is an actual quote from one.

      • Pascal says:

        almost all of the West.

        It’s charming to see you retain a smidgen of optimism KG.

  6. MikeH. says:

    Does anyone else here believe there is something way wrong with David Hogg? Besides the obvious, (ie, his being a total leftist stooge) I would not be shocked to hear that the little jerk-wad was the “brains” behind the shooting plot.

  7. Gregoryno6 says:

    “It’s a strange political fact, but nearly every major anti-gun group has been a front group… The one consistent thing about anti-gun groups is that that they are usually the opposite of what their name says they are.”

  8. Michael in Nelson says:

    Australia caught cheating and conspiring to cheat at test cricket.

    http://www.nzherald.co.nz/cricket/news/article.cfm?c_id=29&objectid=12019814

    Is anyone surprised?

    • mawm says:

      A one match ban! Is that all for a “senior” players conspiracy to cheat?

      I’m sick of the histrionics, the cheating, the lack of sportsmanship that has crept into sport. It is time to take the money out of the game.

  9. Alan says:

    I lost interest in cricket years ago. Directly after the New Zealand team were having pot parties while touring South Africa and the behaviour of Cairns and Parore quitting the West Indies tour because they could not take the discipline of Glen Turner who was coaching the team. That, with Australian sledging and unsporting behaviour was the last straw.

  10. Michael in Nelson says:

    There have been all sorts of discussions, analyses and knee-jerk reactions to the recent mass shooting and bombings in the US. What I find puzzling about the reactions is what isn’t being considered as a cause. What if we considered evil as actually existing and facing the possibility that the perpetrators were influenced by the idea that they could do these evil things, i.e. they were encouraged to do what they did by the idea of being able to do something to harm others simply because they could?

    • Grog says:

      That’s practical thinking, Michael, and it’s a rare skill in today’s “modern world.”

      As it has oft been said, the greatest trick the devil completed is convincing the world he doesn’t exist, the point being that self reflection, self discipline and manners, to name only a few standards among many, is not encouraged today.

      Jeff Cooper once said that “there a lot of people walking around who are a waste of good air, however it’s illegal to kill them.” That’s paraphrased, but I’m sure you understand.

    • mawm says:

      Heh! I recently read a novel about an on-line game that had subliminal messaging to get people to do mass shootings. You might be onto something there Michael. http://falfn.com/CrusaderRabbit/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_cool.gif

    • Fred says:

      Most people understand that evil exists, it’s that they deny the converse is even possible which leads to the problem. They seem to think that moral relativism and humanism and diversityism is good. But no, only God is good. And since they don’t know God, evil is only as real as an abstraction.http://falfn.com/CrusaderRabbit/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_good.gif

      • KG says:

        “there a lot of people walking around who are a waste of good air, however it’s illegal to kill them.”

        How about:
        There’s a lot of people walking around who are a waste of good air..because it’s illegal to kill them?

        • Grog says:

          O magnificent spelling guru, I defer to your correctivity, and humbly (cough) ask for minimal penance because of my lack of quality. http://falfn.com/CrusaderRabbit/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_mail.gifhttp://falfn.com/CrusaderRabbit/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_cool.gif

    • Andy5759etc says:

      To be tempted to do evil is human, to succumb to temptation is to be a flawed human, yet to resist temptation is to be a better human. No man is perfect but surely we can try a little harder.

      • Fred says:

        I’m reminded of Job 28:28

        “And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.”

        Resisting temptation (departing from evil) is a good start toward wisdom. If one departs from evil they are then, necessarily moving toward God.http://falfn.com/CrusaderRabbit/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_good.gif

    Ronbo is officially banned from Facebook – It would appear the Communist censors there didn’t like me saying Michelle Obama is a tyranny.

    I am so sad….NOT! http://falfn.com/CrusaderRabbit/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_yahoo.gif

  12. Alan says:

    I see Pat Condell has been banned from youtube, I wonder what the world will look like in 50 years. Probably most sensible people will be in the gulag, and communism will reign.

    • Gregoryno6 says:

      We need to get a Pat Condell samidzat running! Distribute the vids that youtube won’t present through Gmail – oh, what sweet irony that would be.

      Seriously though, I have heard it too many times that youtube is censoring and demonetising and stifling, and just generally being tyrannical mofos. Youtube is not the only game in town. There are alternatives now, and Pat, Milo, Dave Rubin etc should be packing up and getting ready to move house.

  13. Michael in Nelson says:

    Hey KG, Your favourite fish wrap continues to less than impress. In a story about cricket, Trent Boult was commenting on the new pink ball for the day-night test. He was quoted as saying “The pitch almost seemed to do a few quirky things, a bit more pace, when the due had settled on the wicket.”

    ‘Editors, we don’t need no stinking editors.’

    • KG says:

      Yegods…the frightening thing is, this rag and a couple of TV channels largely form Kiwis’ view of the world.
      No wonder the last couple of exchanges I’ve had with people have felt like trying to explain computational fluid dynamics to a wood louse.
      ie the final response to an exchange about plastic bags vs the green alternatives ended up being an angry “oh well it’s just a matter of opinion”. Well no, no it ain’t, it’s a matter of measurable facts. Which are apparently rude hostile mansplaining and fascistic to boot.
      When Truth takes a back seat to feelings we’re stuffed, Michael:

      http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=12021006

      I rest my case.

      • Michael in Nelson says:

        I’M A VICTIM!!! I’VE HAD MY FEELINGS HURT!!! SOMEONE MUST BE MADE TO PAY!!! (preferably in large denominations).

          • Ronbo says:

            Me too! Like every time I tune the TV to CNN or read anything by the New York Times – I feel I’m a victim of Hate Speech – and Democrat politicians who keep calling me “Deplorable” – one who clings to “God, Guns, Tobacco, Old Glory and the Bible.”

            So what’s to done? Since elections have been proven to be ineffective in righting the wrongs done against Deplorables like me – The only option remaining is a dictatorship of The Deplorables – during which we refine Freedom of Speech as only that speech we agree with – and as treason speech that conflict with our ideals punishable by execution or life in a hard labor camp above the Arctic Circle in Alaska.

            I mean what’s good for the goose is good for the gander!

            – and if the opposition doesn’t like “The New Speech Order” – then we remind them that when their oligarchy ruled they censored our speech.

  14. mawm says:

    How much more embarrassing can our Prime Minister get?

    Maybe you can’t find any covert Russian spies because they don’t need to be “covert” in Cuba of the South Pacific. Anyway, aunty Helen is back to help you muddle your way through a job that’s far beyond your ability and I’m sure we’ll see far better pronouncements from you.

    Saw this earlier today. Can’t find it on any news site.

    Has anyone got any reference to corroborate it?

  16. KG says:

    Socialist NZ:
    ‘Netherlands, with almost 15.5 million people, has a prison population of 7000. For 4.7 million, NZ’s prisons are approaching 11,000.
    …Since 2015, there has been more than 20 per cent increase in the prison population, largely due to an increase in the rate of convictions of serious violent and sexual offenders, who boosted the number of long-term prisoners.
    If Māori had the same proportion of people in prison as non-Māori, the national prison population would be 44 per cent smaller, the report found…’

      Best comment under that story:
      MN_CONSERVATIVE • 5 hours ago

      This story is really personal to me, my nephew is profoundly autistic and was once beaten up by some local thugs. The cops were probably more pissed than we were, they told us where we could find the thugs and what time the police would be going on break. Those thugs never bothered my nephew or any other defenseless kids again.

      Memo to bleeding-heart cowards who refuse to act:
      THIS is what it takes to stamp out scum. “Vigilantes” my arse, they were behaving as responsible adult citizens.

  17. Gregoryno6 says:

    Of course, when Americans get stupid again and elect a Democratic president, she will do the same thing.
    But that would happen regardless of Trump’s actions.
    And he took action. They said it couldn’t be done. He just did it.

    “Self-absorbed whining” barely begins to describe this drivel. :shock:

    • Michael in Nelson says:

      I noticed other women that didn’t get up either. What do women expect if they champion feminism that rejects chivalry. How many times have we heard about a man getting abused for holding the door for a woman? You reap what you sow.

    • Ronbo says:

      My take is that this is a Leftist family living off the taxpayers – and the adults using the kids’ benefit checks for their own private milk cow. So the growing kids started becoming a big problem. The neighbors started making complaints. The cops were slowly – but surely – closing in – Finally – in panic – and facing years in prison – an act of suicide/murder.

  19. Lara says:

    How many months before our shambles of a govt collapses? Ardern found out for the Marxist idiot she is, and so funny, Aunty Helen running to her defence. Possibly the worst govt in our history, already!

  20. Gregoryno6 says:

    Australia’s first and only Aboriginal government leader has called for the ABC to be privatised for featuring a white privilege message on a kids’ show.
    Adam Giles, who made history in 2013 when he became Northern Territory chief minister, has slammed the national broadcaster’s ‘ME’ channel for comparing a straight, white male to a refugee woman.

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5556333/Australias-Aboriginal-government-leader-calls-ABC-sold-white-privilege-video.html#ixzz5BC6xYOqW

    That’s going to trigger a few lefties for sure. An actual INDIGENOUS PERSON saying the ABC should be privatised? I don’t think even Warren Mundine has gone that far.

      • Ronbo says:

        Unfortunately – like PBS in America – ABC will continue to be financed by the Aussie taxpayers from here to eternity…..

        It’s like the man said, “A government program is immortal – and a government bureaucrat is impossible to fire.”

  21. Ronbo says:

    The feel good story of the day – three armed thieves in dressed head to toe in black meet a homeowner with a Colt AR 15 semi automatic assault rifle (magazine size not announced) and die in a hail of 5.56 mm rounds (hollow point or full metal jacket not announced). The only still alive member of the gang – a woman getaway driver – is charged by police with homicide.

    This is America in action – if this had happened in Britain the homeowner would be facing murder charges – in America many states have “Stand your ground” laws that authorize the use of deadly force in self defense.
