I get it and not trying to have a go at you. The problem is that you and others are pre-programmed to think this way and its a huge issue, as it shouldnt be the automatic response in this part of the world. And people like Rachel Riley posting what she did, reinforces that. And there are real world...

The Big Chungus also has another rape trial to attend in Toowoomba. This risk is hes so infamous now that an impartial jury might be hard to find. Sounds like we just need to assume he's guilty and we should lock him up. :thumbup: Its only fair. He got away with rape, so even if he didn't do this o...

Yeah because no one dies of drug use now that they are banned. :roll: But accessing the drugs is much harder so fewer people become addicts. FYI, Im not a fan of banning but rather a fan of higher taxes on it , and then using that money on programs to assist people who do smoke to give up. Same as ...

My wife is dieing in front of my eyes. She has smoked for almost 50 years now and just cannot give up. She doesn't try any more and won't even let her doctor discuss it. She refuses any tests to see what damage it has caused, she knows it has but thinks knowing the details will just cause more stre...

Stupid decision. I am an avowed non-smoker, but such a ban would have the opposite effect with an unregulated Black Market. There is also the precedent of the state deciding that if something is not good for you, they can ban it. Which leads to the question, what would be next? Fancy a beer, anyone...

Sensible Stephen

I am not a smoker but I wonder if such a ban will only strengthen mafia and other criminal groups in pushing these sales to the black market - similar to what Prohibition did with alcohol. Yeah, it won't work. Just like banning alcohol didn't work, and banning drugs has only lead to the situation i...

Thats either harsh on McReight or light on McDermott. McDermotts was way worse than McReights IMO.

Well, because the majority of mass shootings in the US are carried out by Black Americans for one. Nope.

Aren't most mass shootings in the US done by home grown wacko white boys? Why not jump to that conclusion in this case? Or you know, wait for the facts before making an arse out of yourself.

Same probably Phil Kearns used to make me laugh. Mexted was myopic but a legend all the same. Can’t stand the Scottish guy. Kearns was the myopic one. Of the two you mentioned, anyway. Mexted loved free flowing rugby and psychic energy. He could get deep about the game. Kearns just got bitter. Kear...

BRUCE LEHRMANN IS A RAPIST.

Saw that just now. But what does that actually mean consequence-wise? Does he basically get away with it because the mis-trial?

Maybe he'll get his own show on Sky news.

There's just so much to unpack here... Dutton likened those 9 October protests to the shooting murder of 35 people at Tasmania’s Port Arthur historic site in 1996, which heralded tougher gun laws in Australia. “While no one was killed during the 9 October protests, the events at the Sydney Opera Ho...

I don't think you can mandate what positions bench players can pay, aside from the front row for player safety. Tbh, South Africa didn't win the RWC final because of the bomb squad, they won in spite of it. I thought the All Blacks' pack gained the ascendency in the 2nd half, and the rotation of fo...

Agree with dropping back to a 7 man bench, 3 of which must be the front row. The other 4 up to the coaches.

Maybe Schmidt is the coach to bust the moniker that a weak Waratahs is a weak Wallabies. He manages to pluck 23 players from 5 teams and get them cranking. I live on hope.

Conspiracy theory - The likes of Elon Musk are pushing that stuff like this should be blamed on DEI, taking focus away from the actual issue, cutting corners to increase profit. Something Tesla also does.

It is entirely impossible for a POC to be racist against a white person.
