It's been implanted during my last abduction by an experimental craft, programmed to scan certain brain waves. In fact, this is being typed against my will, I am trying to resist but my fingers are just moving on their own. At this stage, I think the revolutionaries have hacked the system and took control of the chip and my actions. Please send help, bring foil. We need a lot of foil. And a donkey.
A cashless society seems like a lot of trouble to institute without a motive ?
If you think the people who run this circus have only taxation in mind you are engagingly naive, just the sort of "client" they want.
What do you think is the logic behind importing savages to attack us ?
My view is that this is being done to justify increased "management" of society as a whole via imposing universal restrictions on personal freedom and privacy, political correctness dictates that we as individuals cannot criticise lest we be called some sort of new age swearword "xxxxist"
Think about it, we have a demonstrably alien and hateful religion blossoming in Australia and any who dare speak out are attacked as racist ! WTF !
Tony Abbot quite fairly got stuck into a dishonest Socialist Shrew and was screeched at for being a "Misogynist", to great applause from people who produce nothing but mischief and consume much produced by others.
Maybe you should hit the books, I would suggest Orwell's 1984 as a primer, that would be double plus ungood but may pry your eyes open just a small bit.
I have been around for 62 years and seen the place change from where a couple of barefoot 8 yo boys could disappear from home on Saturday morning and explore Sydney on the strength of a 10c train ticket, always home before dark of course.
Now the majority of parents are so s#it frightened of predators that they will drive their kids half a mile to school.
I wonder that since we pay record levels of taxation why that is ?
I hope the above is not lost on you, if so you have nothing but my disdain, perhaps some will understand.
Playing Cassandra can be tiring.
Oh gawd... here we go again.
The only thing i have to say to this entire load of codswallop is that crime rates are in real terms lower now than they were back when you were that kid with no shoes and a train ticket. The only reason people are so scared about crime is because we are constantly told how bad it is by the media and paranoid delusional freaks. Kids would actually, in all probability, be safer to roam alone now than back 50 years ago, it is just not perceived to be the case, which is why kids today are so mollycoddled. 50 years ago, there could have been a dozen murders 5 suburbs over and peoples worlds were so small and information moved so slowly you would never hear about it and so live in a false sense of security. No it is the polar opposite. You hear more reports about fewer crimes (per capita and in actual incidents in many cases) but because there are so many reports it seems that there are more crimes. Don't get your info from 3AW or your chronies over shanties at the bowls club; look up the facts on Australian Institute of Criminology and Australian Bureau of Statistics.
Fear is the basic tool of control and the media uses it well. If you cant see that then you have my undying disdain and sympathy, as you so kindly put it.
Back on topic: my answer is NOT ENOUGH!
Have to stock up on 22lr and do some serious reloading sessions. Need more primers and 7-08 bullets. Got plenty of 224 bullets but only a handful of cartridges left loaded.
Actually, i haven't shot much for a couple of months and went into the paddock to confirm sights for some planned pest control an i completely sucked! I need to practice. Maybe i'll just put a brick through the 22lr for fun and games. I've been known to go through 1000 22lr a week when i'm concentrating of working on better technique so i could easily justify keeping many thousands on hand if i had the cash and the storage. Will have to start keeping all my targets in case i ever have to prove my needs. Plus f-class, 24 rounds a week, minimum for 8 months of the year is around 770rounds, plus i could easily shoot 30 wallabies a week if i put my mind to it.......
