Cricket Australia just lost all my support

[happyhunter]

Alannah & Madeline Foundation? Same people screaming for gun control are currently making excuses for woman that commit infanticide. Maybe we need a foundation that supports murdered babies because as the law in Australia currently stands it's all but legal for a mother to murder a child under 12 months of age.

I wonder how Glenn McGrath (the cricketer AND shooter) feels about all this...

Lets ask him .... give me ne a minute. ...

Heres something else to ponder on about Cricket Australia, they'd be nothing if it wasn't for their long history of supporting and promoting alcohol and cigarettes.
Has the shooting paternity ever used the promotion of drugs to help fund their sport ?

If you want to champion this, you have to make it easy to get maximum participation. Up to you, of course.

These companies couldnt give a rats arse about yours and my feelings and opinions.... its 'sold' to them as a violence prevention action, "tougher gun laws wouldnt hurt"..... and thats enough for them.

Anyone who challenges them is potentially seen as disrespecting little Alana and little Madeline.... that how they use the memory of dead kids to manipulate and leverage support..... these people are disgusting, an he is advancing his cause including his income by using his dead kids.


Go to his website to measure this guys character;

Out of curiosity, over the last two years, how many shooters or range officers have died while competing in Australia? How many cricketers or umpires have died during cricket matches?

I don't think we need to go there, mate, tragic accidents have and probably always will happen in any sport

There have been several incidents on the footy oval where young players have just fallen over dead, from cardiac arrest, not to mention the countless destroyed bodies from the very high impact nature of the sport, we know of 1 recent death in professional cricket, who knows the number on the amateur circuit.
Golf, image how many death.... Its fair to say shooting sports are one of the safest ways to 'recreate'...or compete...

I don't think that pushing individual case examples is particularly a good idea - because their families have suffered enough.

But my first thought on hearing this was to think about Luke Batty, Rosie Batty's son, and the tragedy of his death...

His father hit him with a cricket bat... Yes, a cricket bat, before killing him with a knife.

A tool is a tool. Violence is violence. And cricket bats don't kill people, people do.

Typical lefty response. Censorship - and if that's not possible drown it out by shouting down anyone who dare's have a question that might shine some light into an area they don't want looked at.

They're scared of being questioned or a real level debate... gee - been a while since I've seen a proper level debate aired about this sort of stuff in a while, let alone any soft of stuff with the ABC. Always biased one way, with a bias audience....

[<<Genesis93>>]

A balanced firearm debate on the gaybecee or the socialist broadcasting system....

Is 5 lefties who think only police should have guns..2 feminist domestic violence campaigners, an animal rights terrorist and a professional opinion provider who had a neighbour who had a grandparent who shot a 22 back in the day and are therefore the resident expert.

Great to hear. Comments don't show up on my computer for some reason - so it's nice to see that there's a good response to their page.

Of course... what's unbalanced about that... provided the professional opinion provider had 20 seconds of free air time out of the 40 min debate to say what he needed too...

The ABC has been out of control, so biased and left - and it's pathetic that the government hasn't done anything serious to deal with it either. We're paying for that propaganda TV station. It's bad enough on commercial channels, but when it's out of my money.

Struck a nerve

Well I'm not really surprised, poor Glenn wouldn't be able to answer that in any way shape or form without upsetting CA , us lafo's or lying with his answer. The only practical thing he could do is pretend he was never asked and stip me from asking again.
What upsets me the most is that CA still has tge post up even aftwr a publuc lashing ... talk about standing by their guns !
