Time to lock up no 1 radio host.

In Australia, Anti-Immigrant Racism Is Everywhere

The alleged Christchurch shooter is a product of the dog whistles and overt bigotry in the political mainstream.

Crikey!

What if, the immigrant is white with a foreign accent, is sitting near you in your office, isn't happy with her new land, is always criticising it, and says "Australian farmers f their sheep"...you're "the sheep farmer's daughter", and you go after her like "a Pitbull on steroids", is that racist?

Responding, while probably not obligatory seems well within bounds. Responding like “pit bull on steroids” seems like an Aussie code for going on an ignorant racist rant. That’s probably where you fucked up.

So your argument is that you and your likeminded countrymen and whack job brethren around the world are spreading hatred and violence dangerously and effectively, but since it’s part of some ancient tit for tat where you got your feelings hurt, you’ll keep it up anyway.

It explains why your flailing so hard for bothsiderism as you dig deeper into your hole.

You are a paragon of all that’s wrong with your country.

Forget your puppeteer radio host.

Listen to the children.

No 'ignorant' racist rant...but mrs bambu, the sheepfarmer's daughter, told her in no uncertain terms where she was going wrong and that if she ever heard her say anything like that again she'd be "straight up to HR, complaining bitterly about how much I've been offended and calling for your dismissal".
Not racist IMO.

Looks like Chelsea was correct in her tweet.

History?
We don't need to know history to tear down a statue!


Confederate Monument Vandals Take Aim At Wrong Lee Statue


DUNN, N.C. — The controversy surrounding Confederate monuments has resulted in the vandalism of statues across the South.
“Never even thought it would affect us in any way at all,” said Mark Johnson, Curator of the General William C. Lee Airborne Museum in Dunn.

Johnson thought for sure a statue of General William C. Lee would be safe from the chaos.
“This is a hometown grown boy here that turned out to be an international hero of World War II so to come and try to destroy his statue is just an insult to everybody,” said Johnson.

“This, right here, is a result of a massacre stoked by people like you and the words that you put out into the world,” one student told Clinton. “And I want you to know that and I want you to feel that deep down inside. Forty-nine people died because of the rhetoric you put out there.”

#####

Not Chelsea's fault, according to my TV news last night.
It detailed exactly how and when the shooter 'turned', 'snapped' if you like.

It showed him as a cute toddler, in his marathon-running father's arms, his mother and sister also in the family photo.
It showed how he attended the local schools in the country coastal town.
It showed a photo of him aged 21 when his father died of asbestos poisoning.
It said that at that time he inherited some money, and decided to travel overseas.
First stop NZ.
He must've lived in countries for extended periods.
Then thru Asia, Pakistan.
Then to Europe.
First France then other countries, including Sweden.
Everywhere he went in Europe there was an attack by Muslim terrorists.
Think after the one in Sweden...news said, that this is where and when he decided "To do something about it""To commit to violence"

Don't think they teach war history in schools.
They should.
It's the South, a statue with "Lee" on it, good enough for them.

Kid you are quite the repository for writers who try to project their guilty conscience. You are what you eat.

Please don't read this one

https://www.redstate.com/sister-toldjah/2019/03/15/kamala-harris-dined-many-times-alone-married-man-finds-pences-position-dining-alone-women-outrageous/?fbclid=IwAR32FslrXUI8QeSwzQ2zywjGRRwNkhZ3rMUp6UXClxultCIZ_n00WPF_RzI

Pence's position of never dining alone with a woman who is not his wife is exactly the correct one.
Better still is also never being alone in the presence of a woman who is not your wife.
Only other person in the workplace cafeteria/dining room, a woman?...leave immediately and raid the snacks supply in your locked bag for lunch...a lot safer option.
Makes life a whole lot easier.

Iranians...they're Muslims, right?

http://www.msn.com/en-au/news/world/britain-and-eu-at-risk-of-iranian-terror-attacks-at-home-us-counter-terrorism-chief-warns/ar-BBUQr8a?li=AAgfYrC&OCID=AVRES000

Britain and EU at risk of Iranian terror attacks at home, US counter-terrorism chief warns

Britain and other European nations are at risk from Iranian terror attacks on home soil and must do more to deter the regime, America’s counter-terrorism coordinator has warned.


#####

There are solutions, quite easy solutions really...but the brigades of political correctness, harmony, tolerance, "multiculturalism is great", "everyone in the world is a lovely person"...would be outraged by them.
Looks like the only thing left to do now is stock up on more flowers and candles.

That's the US counter-terrorism chief issuing the warning.

Never dine with anyone, Bambu. Fewer people will get sick that way.

The whites everywhere are a bigger terror risk.

I will say the attack on Chelsea seemed misplaced and something of a red herring.  Her disagreement with a Muslim congressperson was with her words regarding Israel and not against her as a Muslim.

Yes I know, but the college students were blaming Chelsea's words for causing the deaths of the Muslims in NZ, by her criticism of the Muslim Congressperson.
