Do You Support Police and Law Enforcement?

by minimus in

recently black lives matter representatives have encouraged people to spit in law enforcement officials foods.

some people are going into police stations and trying to kill innocent officers.

federal officials are marked for death because they try to administer the law.. what is your opinion of this type of lawlessness?.

LoveUniHateExams

I fully support the police.

There are some bad apples in the police force but most are decent officers, doing their jobs under difficult circumstances.

The made-up racist instances on both sides of the Atlantic don't help.

(Here in the UK, police shot and killed Mark Duggan in 2011 in Tottenham, north London. The cops thought Duggan had a gun on him - it turned out he'd thrown it in a bush by the roadside before the police caught up with him. The police weren't being 'racist' here - they were just doing their job. It didn't stop people rioting across London and other parts of Britain. There were people from other parts of London who didn't know Mark Duggan at all, breaking into Burger King and McDonald's and flipping themselves a few burgers with fries on the side! XD Jewellery shops got smashed and burgled, too. The Turkish and Sikh shop owners had the right idea - they stood outside their shops holding swords.)

LGBT, trans, etc. - Be warned!

any minority group who bring such cases because they have been "offended" by a comment or a joke about their precious "alternate" lifestyle, should take a few steps back and admit what they are really demanding - a total ban on everyone's freedom of speech, except their's!

Good news - the High Court found that Harry Miller's 'transphobic' tweets were lawful and that the police interfered with his right to freedom of expression.

Hopefully this will mark some kind of turning point and return to common sense ...

I'd just politely but firmly affirm my legal rights by stating that I did not wish to discuss the matter with them - I get where you're coming from. Some people do exactly that and that's fine.

But the police would then check your business, check your tax payments, check for anything illegal ... watch you to see if you break the law in any way ...

Re talking to the police in the first instance: I'm a bit surprised Mr. Miller never informed the police that he did not wish to discuss the matter with them - the police asked him to appear for a 'voluntary chat'.

The usual tactic by the police if someone refuses the voluntary chat (which people can legally do) is for the police then to go through the person of interest's affairs and try to pin anything illegal on that person. If they find nothing illegal, they'll watch that person until he breaks the law.

It's disgusting behaviour from the police - they should be solving actual crimes.

'Checking people's thinking' goes beyond their remit. People are free to think whatever the hell they like.

Just as an aside, I posted a comment on facebook recently that basically said:

'Actually, some women want to keep their safe spaces free of biological males. This is an issue that needs to be discussed.'

I got some interesting discussions with two or three people, but one guy (who claimed to be a lecturer on Statistics) was shitposting, taking the p*ss out of me, etc.

I called him out on his childish comments. He ended up threatening and then claiming to have doxed me and sent emails to my old uni. He also called me a 'p*ssant TERF c*nt'. I hadn't actually mentioned transgender people at all up till that point.

Also, I'm not actually a TERF or even a feminist! XD

I guess he was annoyed because I kept saying 'biological males'.

He hit the roof after I responded to his comment: 'I don't tolerate TERF c*nts' (i.e. me), because I responded by saying 'sorry, you have to tolerate me because I've done nothing illegal'. XD

I pointed out to him that I'd actually said a number of times that society should be able to accommodate intersex people AND still have female-only spaces for those women who want them but, like I said, he went nuts.

Just goes to show there are real extremists out there ...

PS - I recognised a name who went through a lot of my comments in that discussion because this person liked a lot of them. I think it was an administrator from Bolton Uni.

Harry Miller appeared on Triggernometry for a full hour. He's basically an ex-copper who values freedom of speech.

Here's his appearance on Triggernometry, fascinating viewing ...

When China sneezes ..... !!!!!!

by fulltimestudent in

i'm being a smartarse with that title.

its a play on an old saying in ozland (australia) which was, "when the usa sneezes, australia gets pneumonia" which was meant to describe the economic clout of the usa on the economic life of australia.. but first, a (hopefully) quick personal story.

two weeks ago, i went with some chinese friends to a house auction in hurstville (a suburb in sydney, which is now a popular suburb for cantonese speaking chinese).

The Chinese can sneeze all they like.

However, they should stop eating bat soup.

The future of the Watchtower Society

i left way back in 2002, seems a long time ago now and i haven't really kept up with any developments since.. i've kept one ear open and noticed recently there is talk of the wt being investigated over the sex abuse cover ups, but over the years this story has come in and out of the news.. what is everybody's predictions as to the future of the borg?

i know what most people want to happen, but realistically, are we just looking at certain elements being hit because of the restructuring they did a few years ago to protect from this very thing?

looking further ahead, you'd like to think that more people would wake up?

People that are shunned and those that shun mimic slavery

by Yomama in

so im reading this book 1619 about slavery then it dawned on me that shunning like slavery emotionally rips apart families.

if you look at romans 1:32 study note under natural afection they tell on themselves if you cannnot love your familey you cannot love others wow just wow try shareing that point with your pimi relatives..

He could have said slavery was wrong......he didn't. So much for Jesus and all of the Old and New testament. In fact it supported Slavery which still goes on to this day - yeah, true.

But it's important to get a sense on perspective on slavery.

Slavery in Christian-majority countries ended a long time ago. The British ended the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade at the beginning of the 1800s.

As far as we know, Jesus never owned slaves. But Muhammad did own slaves and concubines, and he traded in them.

Slavery among Arabs and Muslims started centuries before the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade and ended in 1962 in Saudi Arabia and Yemen and in 2008 in Mauritania! ... just think about that for a moment: there are some people alive in Mauritania right now who are freed slaves. Makes you think, doesn't it?

Iowa Democratic Caucus - Just WOW

by Simon in

there was a babylon bee or onion spoof article a few weeks back claiming the democrats would lose their own caucus and ... well, they managed to do it for real.. apparently they can't count their own votes, their app and process is now steeped in corruption (created by a company called 'shadow' that has taken money from multiple candidates as well as the dnc and has links to clinton) and multiple candidates have declared themselves the winner.

biden has apparently done so badly that he's going to court to block the results being announced.

no estimate of when they will be released even.. how do they come up with this ... and what does it mean for the election results where they oversee the counts?.

Because he's doing a fantastic job and the alternatives would range from dreadful to downright scary.

^^^ This ... just this.

Trump's no saint but he's taking his job as President seriously and he's actually doing his level best to deliver on his manifesto. He's also improving the economy and apparently improving the lives of African-Americans.

The Dems, in contrast to Trump, are showing themselves to be a deranged bunch of chancers and extremists who shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the levers of power.
