Where is our Cromwell?

‘(At 11 o’clock in the morning of 20 April 1653, Cromwell led a company of musketeers to Westminster. Having secured the approaches to the House, he addressed the Members, calmly at first, then with rising anger as he told them that their sitting was permanently at an end and they must leave.)

Raema Merchant is a dishonest propagandist

and more than likely a racist, to boot.
‘Pakeha (that’s maori  for European Kiwis. kg) kill just as many children as Maori, despite Maori being the “face of abuse” in the media, according to a researcher.
Social work lecturer Raema Merchant said focusing on Maori parents diverts attention away from the fact Pakeha can harm children too.
“I’m not denying it’s a problem for Maori, but if we’re just focusing on Maori we’re ignoring the Pakeha side,” she said.
“It’s almost as though Pakeha are putting their heads in the sand and saying there is no Pakeha child abuse.”
Her master’s thesis at the Eastern Institute of Technology found about half of the children killed in New Zealand died at the hands of a Pakeha abuser..’

Leaving aside for the moment the value of a social worker’s “master’s thesis” from a place as eminent as the “Eastern Institute of Technology”–which is probably a collection of houses or offices with chairs and signwriting added, a shonky grant of taxpayer’s money and a student roll which owes more to skin pigment than talent–leaving that aside, the simple fact is that maori, on a per-capita basis, are the prime cause of NZ’s horrific child-abuse figures. To claim otherwise is dishonest.

Labor’s incompetence and dishonesty:

‘MALAYSIA will take up to 800 asylum seekers from Australia, in return for Australia accepting 4000 processed refugees.’              source

We still get hordes of unwanted immigrants–except now, they’re known as “processed refugees”. And Australia has no control over that process. Good one, Gillard, you duplicitous cow.

‘San Francisco Considers Legal Protection for Criminals’

A legislative proposal in San Francisco seeks to make ex-cons and felons a protected class, along with existing categories of residents like African-Americans, people with disabilities and pregnant women. If passed by city supervisors, landlords and employers would be prohibited from asking applicants about their criminal past.

…According to The City’s Human Rights Commission, San Francisco has the highest recidivism rate of any big city in California, almost 80 percent. With an influx of new prisoners set to be released because of the state’s budget crisis, supporters argue felons need legal protections before they’re disqualified simply because of their record..’
Given that San Francisco has the highest recidivism rate of any big city, it would seem to be merely prudent to disqualify felons, no?
‘Commission Director Teresa Sparks calls it a public safety issue.

…”All we’re saying is get a chance to know them, see if they’re qualified otherwise, before you use that as a criteria for taking them out,” she said…’
So…this ignorant handwringing PC kumbaya bovine idiot thinks that private, law-abiding citizens should wear the risk of finding out if felons are, in fact, rehabilitated. Not the city bureaucrats. And who will be held responsible should one of the felons re-offend? I guess we already know the answer to that!

‘Indigenous Alumni’

From the University of Melbourne. To which, I can only say:
Bawaahahaha!  ‘Indigenous’ my arse. If they’re indigenous, I’m Martian. They’re nothing more than opportunists riding the gravy train. Andrew Bolt says “I am not able, under legal advice, to comment on this special group of alumni of Melbourne University. For legal reasons I may not permit you to comment, either.”

Well, Wabbit can and will comment and damn the Star Chamber.
