That's a crap argument. Especially for you. I know for a fact that 'Out Back of Bourke' has never had a lockdown before. I'd imagine there's been a gun-centric holocaust inflicted on local kangaroos and rabbits / foxes. Bourke ain't leafy Annandale. Shooting a few dogs to lose a problem wouldn't lead to the fainting couch. Maybe you should wonder why a local council ranger in fuck-stick Bourke has become so iconic? Who is playing who?

Just wait till they discover that shooting feral cats is an Australian habit...

Oh look.

The pollies are getting nervous. The evidence supporting my POV converges. 🤷‍♂️

Btw, the HSC is the Year 12 final exams that determine uni places. There’s a whole electorate of students and parents looking nervously and angrily on. Many parents have invested $200K or more for 6 years private education to get a great outcome. They’ll be pissed I if the exams are disrupted or little Mary doesn’t get the ROI because “allowances across the board” are made.

And most of them vote Liberal. Gladys and her MPs will be watching and weighing the situation.

And then you have labor greedily eyeing the towel-heads who may swap aspirational dreams of liberal powered small business wins for the liberal lefts offer of handouts.

Yet-another example of screwtape not-seeing the original news story post, due-to 'ignore'ing me, but feeling confident that his reply is fully-informed.

The actual story is that Bourke had already made arrangements with Cobar (130 km away) to receive the dogs-- including anti-Covid measures-- but Bourke shot the dogs so that Cobar would have nothing to receive.

In divorces and domestic squabbles-- it's common for one partner to hold the other's pet hostage-- and kill the pet in a pyrrhic display of dominance. Here in the US, that's punishable as a Domestic Violence felony. I see a distinct similarity in this case.

And screwtape weighing-in is just another example of the progressive expert-class traipsing blithely down the road to eugenics. One day you're wishing for the mass-death of low-IQ undesirables, the next day you're proudly de-sensitized to the senseless killing of dogs (shooting dogs was a method used by the Nazi SS to acclimate trainees-- so they could graduate-to killing humans without hesitation.)

#727

I can’t believe this is the crime against humanity the world is creaming over.

Bourke was in lockdown. That means no comings and goings. Doesn’t matter what was happening in Cobar.

Meanwhile the dogs were going silly.

Are we supposed to feel better that ten were puppies?

But hey, it's a MAJOR CRISIS, cuz the deaths due to covid in NSW just doubled this week. 15 humans + 15 dogs.

This wouldn't have been necessary, had your shit-for-brains, wanking bureaucrats not placed all you sheeple under house arrest in chicken little response to a wimpy variant that's killed hardly anyone, and those were either really old or fat chain smokers.

They shot dogs during Katrina, too. Because some dickless wonder desk jockey decided dogs were just property and no property allowed when being evac'd.

After the Camp Fire here [Paradise], wanker county officials wouldn't let animal rescue folks in 'because of risk to public safety, and insisted there were no animals left. Yet trails cams showed hundreds of cats showing up for food and water. Fortunately, the fire and emergency crews happily set out food and water. My friend snuck in and saved a big yellow dog who'd been sitting for days in front of where his owner's house had been. That made international news as a feel-good story, but the fucking county dipshits would've let that dog die, and all the cats I helped rescue.

Callous mistreatment of animals is a sign of a sick society. Asking children to suffer to assuage the irrational fears and superstitions of adults -- as we just did for a year in the US -- is the sign of a mentally ill society.

You personally might not give a shit about a few "surplus" animals. But most people do care about animal welfare. And, as SD observed, dogs are practically family going back tens of thousands of years. This is a harbinger.

Likewise, it's a weasel-word to say the Cobar rescuers were 'unable' to come to Bourke. The dogs were killed because Cobar WAS able to come.

I’m not sure you’re trying to understand my point.

The general lockdown of western NSW came as a shock and surprise to the countryside. They had considered COVID a Sydney problem. Specifically a SW Sydney problem. It had only just started to manifest in Dubbo. The cockies were twitchy.

Lockdown was imposed on them very quickly and with little warning. There was panic buying for the first time. Rules were uncertain beyond the general top level command to “stay at home and cease movement”. Loopholes and exceptions were not encouraged, to say the least. Regions were already doing a lot of finger pointing (and worse) at perceived outsiders spreading the virus (see Byron Bay). Quite frankly I’d have been surprised if a council had considered it appropriate at that moment to move dogs around between regional towns.

Now do with that as you will. But that’s the reality. And I’m sorry if it doesn’t fit your preferred vibe. But tough.

As for the behaviour of the dogs. I was simply repeating the reported facts - that they were fighting and overcrowded with the new 10x puppies. The relevance of which is that it supported the requirement for a change of status quo.

Pretty much. It’s a shit sandwich.

I guess my meta point is that the responses around the world are best understood as a maelstrom of local social and cultural inputs filtered through the same rough gauze of institutional political command-and-control. Proactive innovative crisis management is something that Governments are ironically very shit at.

We just hit over a 1000 daily cases here in NSW for the first time. We locked down when we were getting about 20 a day. This will be interesting given the govt wants to deliver some sort of return on the ‘6 million jabs’ target.

Germans and Austrians are hooligans next to the Swiss. Mate of mine stepped off the kerb to cross an empty Zurich street contrary to the lights and received a tug on the back of his shirt from a native. Not that I've ever been there. My personal experience of Switzerland is the Sprungli choc shop in Zurich airport and a particularly harrowing balls up by Swiss Air involving a late connecting flight, an 8 hour stay in the airport followed by a flight to Vienna and another hours long wait for a long haul flight. Chocolate good, airline bad. No wonder the airline went tits up.

Politico, today:
EXCLUSIVE

U.S. officials provided Taliban with names of Americans, Afghan allies to evacuate
“Basically, they just put all those Afghans on a kill list,” said one defense official.

"U.S. officials in Kabul gave the Taliban a list of names of American citizens, green card holders and Afghan allies to grant entry into the militant-controlled outer perimeter of the city’s airport, a choice that's prompted outrage behind the scenes from lawmakers and military officials.

The move, detailed to POLITICO by three U.S. and congressional officials, was designed to expedite the evacuation of tens of thousands of people from Afghanistan as chaos erupted in Afghanistan’s capital city last week after the Taliban seized control of the country. It also came as the Biden administration has been relying on the Taliban for security outside the airport.

But the decision to provide specific names to the Taliban, which has a history of brutally murdering Afghans who collaborated with the U.S. and other coalition forces during the conflict, has angered lawmakers and military officials.

“Basically, they just put all those Afghans on a kill list,” said one defense official, who like others spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive topic. “It’s just appalling and shocking and makes you feel unclean.”

A spokesperson for U.S. Central Command declined to comment."

Study: Fully Vaccinated Healthcare Workers Carry 251 Times Viral Load, Pose Threat to Unvaccinated Patients, Co-Workers

A preprint paper by the prestigious Oxford University Clinical Research Group, published Aug. 10 in The Lancet, found vaccinated individuals carry 251 times the load of COVID-19 viruses in their nostrils compared to the unvaccinated.

By
Peter A. McCullough, M.D., MPH

A groundbreaking preprint paper by the prestigious Oxford University Clinical Research Group, published Aug. 10 in The Lancet, includes alarming findings devastating to the COVID vaccine rollout.

The study found vaccinated individuals carry 251 times the load of COVID-19 viruses in their nostrils compared to the unvaccinated.

While moderating the symptoms of infection, the jab allows vaccinated individuals to carry unusually high viral loads without becoming ill at first, potentially transforming them into presymptomatic superspreaders. :rimshot: MASK THE VAXXED!

This phenomenon may be the source of the shocking post-vaccination surges in heavily vaccinated populations globally.

The paper’s authors, Chau et al, demonstrated widespread vaccine failure and transmission under tightly controlled circumstances in a hospital lockdown in Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam.

The scientists studied healthcare workers who were unable to leave the hospital for two weeks. The data showed that fully vaccinated workers — about two months after injection with the Oxford/AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine (AZD1222) — acquired, carried and presumably transmitted the Delta variant to their vaccinated colleagues.

The ANZAC concept is something retooled by government to meet evolving social agendas. Currently it (apparently) expresses past demonstration of our tolerant and diverse community. :bjarte:

Historically it celebrated a fetishised version of a highly developed Anglo personal character. One broken free from the shackles of industrial cities. One best showcased against the contrasting light of a venal and futile war. Specific personal traits as documented in the War Memorial’s Sacred Shrine, our Holies of Holies.

Anyone who thinks ANZAC is all about the preservation of innate God delivered freedom needs to go back to school. And definitely not an American one.

The vast bulk of those who died were on their last legs. How much can the quality adjusted years of life saved by vaccinations, masks, lockdowns etc... actually be when averaged across the population? Would you be locked down for a year, make yourself significantly poorer, and harm your children's education to extend the low quality end of your life by a day? Maybe it's two days, but that's the cost/benefit analysis of "lock it all down", surely?
