I read the article and according to various witnesses the woman was handing out leaflets and the dreadlocks guy called her a b**ch for some reason. This was before the point when filming the incident began. So maybe she was just really p**sed off.
They were always much smarter than Americans. One of the most civilised racial/cultural groups on earth.
Which is why Ho Chi Minh came to the US well before the war seeking help to prevent Nth Vietnam from becoming communist. He was ignored by the US government who subsequently declared war on...
Are you actually aware of the laws I referred to ? Most Australians aren't. Check the details. My remarks were not hyperbole at all. Perhaps like most Australians you simply don't know the details of the laws which were passed post-911.
Yeah, and I keep thinking it will help me understand people better.
And then, when it does, I wish I hadn't read it.
But I keep reading it.
God I'm a fool.
Like right now I have a movie on hold to post this. The movie is 'FEU: Crazy Horse Paris'.
I could be looking at gorgeous French women in...
Not referring to age as in pulling rank, but because I have a view of Australia which began prior to the TV era (I was born a year or so before introduction of TV). So I have observed our culture for a long time, and watched the changes. I remember the 'Aussie culture' which folk are nostalgic...
I guess you mean that although what I posted is all true, which it is, it does not give credit to the more positive aspects of Australian culture.
I would have thought the same thing some years back. But I am possibly somewhat older than you, and have watched the decline which is now...
G'day. Owya goin ?
Bad news I'm afraid. Australia is superficially a free democracy. But the rot has really set in.
The rot really took hold on November 11 1975, when the government of the day - the Labor Party, under PM Gough Whitlam - was sacked by the Queen's representative Sir John Kerr...
Arbitrary assertion Luis.
And it ignores the global history of philosophy, religion and art., all of which have their origins in the use of mind altering plants.
There is a complete failure here to recognise that there is a significant difference between intelligent use of drugs and the use...
Yeah right. The whole human race needs to be corrected by a corrupt government.
Check the facts Luis. Drugs have been the backbone of philosophy and spiritual practice for thousands of years, in every corner of the globe.
The Greeks philosophers used kykeon, and psilocybe mushrooms and...
Let's get real about this. Humans have used drugs as a fundamental part of their spiritual and social lives since time immemorial.
The notion that this is a problem was invented by the US government very recently, and has produced nothing but misery and cultural destruction.
The very notion...
The significant differences decriminalization would make...
Organised crime could no longer take billions in profits.
Crime in general would be radically reduced.
The US prison system could be significantly downsized.
The justice and policing systems would be freed up to do real work.
The...

Let's kick out the JAMs. ;)
I am immune to your 'misdirection of attention' algorithms.
Spotting high-functioning sociopaths is an important and well-developed part of my skill set, as is knowing when I am having a conversation with a programmable entity. Both are basic necessary skills in the 21st century, as the Upper...
