The sad thing is - this isn't the bottom of the barrel - it's spiraling down, with no end in sight. I'm really concerned just how far down this rabbit hole society is going to go. We used to admit people with these types of thoughts into asylums in the past - now we give them a degree and a place of influence in society!


You ever watched a session at The Senate or Question Time in Parliament and compared that behavior to chimps in a zoo?

I can see why they want to give chimps the same standing as humans - aren't chimps one gene away from humans anyway? :sarcasm:

I was checking out an article in the US about this whole ridiculous carry on and even some of the comments from the readers in the states knew kangaroos were a pest to farmers and they should be managed. They were commenting on why all the carry on and fuss.

How does the president for the kangaroo society think the kangaroos are taken for the meat supplied to major supermarkets? They're not farmed and sent to abattoirs....
"They were smiling and enjoying themselves...." so it's a crime to enjoy doing anything now?

"Dentist" is a very suspicious term from a Commonwealth Nation. Where did you hear of this? :D

I resigned from society many years ago and been essentially anti social since.

On the topic of dentists, I was in the chair some years back with a new dentist when he said to me, just before stabbing me in the gum with a horse needle "This won't hurt a bit". I replied that he should let me hold his balls just to be sure and reached out to grab them....the look on his face was priceless, the nurse had tears of laughter. I still see him on a regular basis and he flinches anytime I move my hand towards his groin :)

I heard Michal Jackson gave Chimps the same rights 30 yrs ago.. Ask bubbles he'll tell you. :friends:

I wear a gun. At first, I thought, "I should keep it covered, he is a foreigner and if he doesn't like guns he might hurt me a little more than usual."

Then I though, "That was dumb. Go with your strengths :D"
