If Miranda has any medical evidence that attibutes violence to marijuana use I would love to read it.

I'll save her the trouble;

The link between pot and mass shootings may be closer than we think
By Miranda Devine

You can’t walk through the streets of Manhattan these days without smelling weed.

Even as evidence mounts of the health problems associated with marijuana, New York has insisted on joining other greedy states scrambling to legalize this deceptively dangerous drug.

It makes no sense at a time when American youth is suffering from an unprecedented mental health crisis.

And, in all honesty, we cannot rule out a connection between increasing marijuana use, mental illness and the recent spate of mass shootings by disturbed young males.

Indeed Miranda, indeed...pot sends people crazy in the head, alters their minds/personality, sends 'em schitzo.
No one much would listen in the rush to send the country potty.

If Bambi had his way and Trump his and Kid and Ward theirs, Pasteur would have sold his vaccine to the highest bidder and the world would still largely be suffering from Polio.

When a knife-wielding killer went on a bloody rampage through the streets of Sydney, Australia, this week, he was stopped in his tracks by a group of courageous men using just a milk crate and a chair.

Brandishing a butcher’s knife and yelling “Allahu Akbar,” 21-year-old Mert Ney already had allegedly murdered one woman and stabbed another in the back when six men armed themselves with weapons, ranging from a café chair to a firefighter’s ax, and chased him down.

With the killer pinned to the ground, one of the men yelled at him in outrage over his violence against women: “You’re a piece of . . . You stabbed a chick, mate.”

In every story of bloodshed and mayhem, it’s the same. Tales of selfless male heroism and chivalry emerge in the face of mortal danger.
These are men who rush toward danger, risking their lives and even dying in the noble cause of protecting women and children.

We saw it in the El Paso and Dayton massacres. There was David Johnson, 63, who pushed his wife and 9-year-old granddaughter to safety under a counter at the El Paso Walmart before he was fatally shot.

Gotta love that "toxic masculinity" so hated by some today.

Kicked in the head by some cows in Oakley. Dairy farming is a dangerous world.

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Jones_(radio_broadcaster)

Now we know his excuse, what’s yours?

I would've been more diplomatic...you know, 'play the flute or play the harp' depending where I am.

"The lovely Ms Ardern is seriously misguided".
"She's living in cuckooland if she thinks Australia will be giving the 'Pacific' $500m for climate change".
"Climate change is not Australia's fault. Australia's carbon emissions are miniscule in the scheme of things."

Morrison didn't give them the $500m.
Tuvalu is not sinking into the sea, has not sunk one inch.

No 1 radio host today; [reading from an email a politician sent him overnight.]
"Perhaps NZ PM Ardern would like to explain what she's going to do about the 40 million tons of CO2 emitted yearly by the cattle and sheep herds in NZ."

"The 5 coal-fired power stations in NSW only emit 8million tons of CO2 pa."
"China will be increasing its carbon emissions from coal fired power stations by 140million tons this year."
"She should go and make China answerable."

This Alan Jones seems like a properly ignorant moron. Was he repeatedly kicked or kneed in the head at some point in his life?

About time someone from Australia said it.
No 1 radio host did, if clumsily.
Morrison is far too nice, and has no real idea what's required.
The People who elected him are demanding what he promised at the election [which he only just won]...cheaper electricity, only achievable by building new coal-fired power stations [Australians pay the highest energy prices in the world, thanks to all the 'climate change' drivel demanding 'renewables now'.]
No sign of new coal fired power stations being approved/built, and no sign of new dams being built.
Morrison is for the high jump if he doesn't do what he promised.
Radio callers are already calling him a 'charlatan'.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison has slammed Alan Jones after the radio presenter said he should 'shove a sock' down the throat of New Zealand leader Jacinda Ardern.
Mr Morrison stepped out of a meeting with leaders at the Pacific Islands Forum in Tuvalu on Thursday to say the 2GB presenter's comments were 'way out of line'.
Jones took to the airwaves to call Ms Ardern a 'lightweight' and a 'clown' following her comments on global warming at the forum on Wednesday.

Pressure has mounted for Australia to reduce its emissions with Ms Ardern warning the Australian government they would 'have to answer to the Pacific'.

Morrison looks ridiculous with that bunch of flowers on his head.
Imagine Trump doing that.

Only women should wear those...men should have a fighter jet or nuke bomb cap.

Nah...he has a brilliant mind.

What he meant to say was that PM Morrison should tell NZ PM Ardern to "put a sock in it" [her mouth], a common expression downunder...meaning to "stop saying it".

As for 'Juliar" ['there will be no carbon tax under the govt I lead"...then after the election introduced a carbon tax]...the chaff bag in the ocean metaphor or whatever [no one was really meaning for that to happen] was acceptable to many people.

Alan Jones says Scott Morrison should 'shove a sock down the throat' of Jacinda Ardern

The radio presenter Alan Jones [no1 radio host] has said Scott Morrison [Prime Minister] should “shove a sock down the throat” of New Zealand prime minister Jacinda Ardern, in abusive remarks on Thursday.

The radio host – who previously said Julia Gillard should be put in a “chaff bag” and thrown in the sea – said Ardern was “a complete clown” and “a joke” and too outspoken about the climate crisis.

Both leaders are at the Pacific Islands Forum in Tuvalu, where nations have urged Australia to commit to reducing emissions. Ardern said on Wednesday that Australia “has to answer to the Pacific” and said New Zealand would “do our bit”.

“Here she is preaching on global warming and saying that we’ve got to do something about climate change,” Jones said on radio station 2GB. “I just wonder whether Scott Morrison is going to be fully briefed to shove a sock down her throat.”

Jones claimed that New Zealand’s per capita carbon dioxide emissions had grown more than Australia’s – but also reassured listeners there was “nothing wrong with” carbon dioxide.

Yes, carbon dioxide is the food source of all plant life on the planet.

China has the whole world by the throat.
The world was warned, but wouldn't listen.
Look around...'everything' we buy is made in China.
China...an economic powerhouse.
China...buying up the world one farm, one house, one company, one country at a time.
The West...going broke fast.

If China didn't care what anybody else thought, they would have squashed the rebellion by now, ninny.

And as for the buying pattern:

https://www.industryweek.com/economy/should-we-allow-chinese-buy-any-us-company-they-want

We Americans blithely ignore the long-term effects of allowing foreign corporations to purchase the assets of our country in the form of companies, land, and resources. We are selling off our ability to produce wealth by allowing many American corporations to be purchased by foreign corporations. It is not just foreign companies buying our assets that is the problem ─ it is the state-owned and massively subsidized companies of China that are dangerous because China uses its state-owned enterprises as a strategic tool of the state. By pretending they are private companies abiding by free-market rules makes us the biggest chumps on the planet.

Young people in Australia who are not drinking alcohol has risen 50% in the last 6 years.

President Trump has been setting a fine example in this regard.

What percentage of Australian youth do you suppose know Trump's drinking proclivities?

We get a lot of news from America.

“Syphilitic” and “cracker” have made it into the verbiage of network TV to describe this “president” and his supporters.

It good they are catching up. Word on the street has been there for a while.

What else can you call people who do this?

"Cracker" is racist.

What people fail to understand is that China doesn't care what anyone thinks.
All one has to do is watch the 6 o'clock news every night to see it.

If China sent troops into Hong Kong and started shooting people, what could the West, or East for that matter do about it?
Invade China?
Blow up China?
No.

China has the whole world by the throat.
The world was warned, but wouldn't listen.
