YAY!!! an OOT.
sadly I am exhausted from not sleeping last night.
night yinz! thanks bunk!
Thanks Bunk X for putting up a new thread. Seeing I’m first can I have a spleen vent over governments massive overreach that tramples basic Liberty into the dust for the sake of health security ….. and because they can and like the POWER that they have invented out of nothing but their imaginations.
Case in Point. The UNELECTED government in New Zealand that was confirmed in a power play behind closed doors between a Socialist left party with just 38% of the vote and a populist party of the centre who were gagging for power with just 8% of the vote and supported by the Green Hard core (communists in green drag)with just 5%. Overall the left factions polled just 43% of the vote while the NZ First party sold its soul for a handful of silver and some plumb seats in parliament. This fascist bunch of misanthropes colluded to impose STASI type power to control the People under Urgency legislation in the dark of night. They claimed to be operating under Emergency powers but in fact that period ran out 5 weeks ago and was only for 30 days anyway.
So we have a regime that now breaks its own Human Rights Act tenants and tells the NZ Police Force that it can forget man rights and liberties and can bust into any home without warrant to ensure that citizens are keeping the ‘temporary’ spacing and numbers rules imposed UNCONSTITUTIONALLY under lapsed Emergency legislation. The NZ Police are VERY upset having to be forced to enforce these illegal and unconstitutional rules. They have claimed that the instructions for enforcement are illegal and the individual Police are committing a felony by carrying out these demands of parliament.
To add real ‘creep factor’ it’s been discovered that a cohort of senior police has been operating a covert IT trial of surveillance and identification, that even the newly incoming Commissioner of Police was unaware as were most of the members of parliament.
This smells like a coup to overthrow constitutional rule of law and replace it with a STRASI type surveillance state. That is NOT mere rhetoric. This is serious and will be judged harshly in the November election, IF it’s not POSTPONED until there is a ‘cure’ for the virus!
Hell NZ has destroyed the Wuhan virus. It’s isolated to a few former high incidence sites with NO cases reported outside these few areas. Te borders are sealed tight and NOBOGY gets into NZ unless they undergo 14 days in lockdown quarantine.
THERE is NO NEED for this fascist socialist legislation except for the Left’s demand for a surveillance society and eternal power for themselves.

Ardern has been ACTING the democrat since 2015 whilst plotting her soft coup. Time was getting short and the people of NZ were starting to question her choices so she unmasked completely.

what? was it in the newspapers? And nobody from Parliament spoke up?
ZIP Nada. The whole parliament seemed shocked and mute. It was passed literally in minutes. The opposition just didn’t have the numbers and to their eternal shame the carpetbaggers of the centre NZ First Party just smiled knowing that their payoff was coming to selected support base like Northland Maori who were handed $1 billion of ‘local infrastructure’ support. The VP of the NZ First Party is a corrupt Northland Maori. The Nga Pui tribals were always untrustworthy cannibals who preyed on other times!
Bastards. Sold out for handful of silver
Just 20 weeks before the election.
I think Ardern has had her ‘bridge too far’ moment with this garbage.
The radio talk back stations have absolutely exploded over this and even blue collar Labour Party supporters have said that they can’t support a Labour led coalition who are this authoritarian.
If we can just shame NZ First to stand on a repeal in November then they may change horses. The STUPID leader of the National opposition Party has 48% of the vote but he hates the leader of NZ First and has said that there will never be another coalition accord with NZ First. This is just plain DUMB ! He needs to go as well.There are a few good conservatives in National but the heir apparent is a RINO type and she is one ruthless bitch with a taint of the socialist as well.

@ Aussie Infidel:

You think NZ upper defence forces are pink… you should see the Australian Defence Forces senior officers especially in the vastly overstaffed Russell Offices ( the Australian equivalent of the Pentaon) in Canberra. Both organisationally incompetent and mildly corrupt.
Take the submarine contract.
COULDN’T be uncleared powered even though distance to on station is the longest in the world. COULDN’T be US so went for a French nuke converted to run on fuel cells where the design is TOTALLY untried. 80% of the cost had to be built in Oz for some pork deal for South Australian industry.There was a perfect Japanese sub already in the water that had the same range but some corruptocrat at Russell Offices insisted on the French boat. The COST had blown out from $50 billion for a dozen boats to $90 billion and the last boat doesn’t even arrive until 2053! Sheesh!
We need 12 US nuke Hunterkiller boats at a unit price of about $4 billion a copy delivered between 2023 to 2030. Just piggy back on the existing US order. Instead of ensuring operational compatibility with the US , something that the French boats will have to retrofitted with we would get built in compatibility at HALF the price in HALF the time!
See the types of problems with Russell Offices?

Our crews are the best but their old shallow water quiet diesel electric boats are old. We operated with the USN regularly off Hawaii and have done very well even in the deep end of the professional pond.

Looking ahead to November, I’m concerned. One of the biggest unknowns that will likely affect the election is the federal bailout of the bankrupt states. Trump should have stated up front that the states will receive no bailout and that they are welcome to shutdown as long as they think is necessary and their economies can tolerate. We already see states lining up to appeal to the federal government to fill the void in their coffers resulting from their own stupidity.
How this next chapter in the nightmare unfolds will be important. You know the Dems/MSM will be howling for relief from Washington, DC, complete with endless sob stories about families suffering and how we must “do it for the children.” They’re innocent victims. Yeah, well, I’ll go along with their victimhood if we can honestly assign the blame on the true villains: their Governors, China, the CDC, and the MSM for its role as Chicken Little. Others, too, but those are near the top of the list.
Despite the fact that the Governors have failed and have intentionally tanked their states’ economies, Trump will be cast as the Orange Meanie who abandoned the nation if the federal government doesn’t bail them out. I’m not hopeful that a hysterical, frightened mob of voters is going to take the rational path in November. I am hopeful that I’m wrong.
Forget the model makers. Forget Fauci. Forget Cuomo. Forget De Blasio. Forget the Michigan Tyrant. But, remember Orange Man Bad and it’s all his fault.
Even if the economy takes back off, which I think it will, you can’t make up for much of the lost revenue. Sure, people will buy that car or refrigerator they were thinking about before this nonsense, but the meals out, the movie tickets, the ice cream runs, the sporting events, the concerts, and so many other spontaneous opportunities are forever lost. That revenue won’t return.
Municipalities and states generate a lot of revenue from those sources, and without it, they’re going to be facing a massive shortfall. Of course, it’s the hard working people of the heartland who owe it to the fools in the blue states who are obligated to finance their frivolity.
The left will be milking this catastrophe for as long as they can. I’m concerned that Trump isn’t the sure thing he was two months ago, especially since we don’t know what surprises the DNC has in store for us and Biden in the coming weeks.

Disease Mitigation Measures in the Control of Pandemic Influenza
2006.
There are no historical observations or scientific studies
that support the confinement by quarantine of groups
of possibly infected people for extended periods in order
to slow the spread of influenza. A World Health Organization
(WHO) Writing Group, after reviewing the literature
and considering contemporary international experience,
concluded that “forced isolation and quarantine are
ineffective and impractical.”2 Despite this recommendation
by experts, mandatory large-scale quarantine continues
to be considered as an option by some authorities and
government officials.35,43

@ eaglesoars:
Closure of schools.It has been the practice in manycommunities to close the schools for 10–14 days at thebeginning of an epidemic of seasonal flu, primarily be-cause of the number of both teachers and pupils who areabsent. This is a reasonable initiative, often expected inmany communities, that also serves to demonstrate ac-tion on the part of officials. Closing schools for longerperiods in hopes of mitigating the epidemic by decreas-ing contacts among students is not warranted unless allother likely points of assembly are closed (e.g., malls,fast-food restaurants, churches, recreation centers, etc.).Such widespread closures, sustained throughout the pan-demic, would almost certainly have serious adverse so-cial and economic effects.

Georgia has been open for two weeks, but many of the restaurants are still cowering and only doing take out and curbside pick up. I expected it to be wide open from the first day they relaxed the shutdown. And this is north Georgia, home of the Deliverance banjo kid (honest, it is). If the MSM can rattle the cages of desperate backwoods business owners, I’m concerned about how quickly people will dare to venture out.

Absolutely, the $600 bonus money was clearly going to hinder a return to work. That was by design. The restaurants may not be able to open because they’re short on staff.

The Act will be automatically repealed unless it’s continued by a motion in the House every 90 days or another agreed time period, meaning the law won’t stay on the statute books beyond the period needed to respond to COVID-19.

How are you hanging Cold?

It all depends on what happens between now and the November elections.
If the Opposition makes it an election issue then this Bill is toast. If not politicians being politicians will just leave this monster mouldering away buried until it can be resurrected and used against the citizenry for some other nefarious reason.
At the moment it doesn’t look good.
The new Commissioner of Police seems to be missing in action. NOT a good sign. The cops on the beat HATE it as it leaves them swinging in the breeze and subject to felony charges.

As I said stay chilly. You’ll come out the other side of this mentally stronger than ever. Tell Mrs CW to keep treating you nice. I’m sure she will.

Now Gov Gimme Gimme Cuomo has an excess of testing kits.

@ eaglesoars:
A governmental agency would have the deep pockets for that, but I seriously doubt a private citizen would be looking to impoverish themselves just to attempt to sue a business.

No contest, the earthworm is a useful creature that is beneficial to the Earth’s environment. Shyster lawyers, leftists, most politicians and bureaucrats are parasites related more closely to fleas, ticks, lice and tapeworms than the magnificent earthworm.
I don’t know where in Japan Nara Park is, but this is beautiful so I thought you might like it
No tourists in #Japan? No problem. Deer herd moved into Nara Park, fully enjoying its Cherry blossoms
An estimated 1000 Deer in the park this year. Breathtaking:

Quick fix to the technical problem.
Admins rename the “Day 62 of the Great American Lockdown” post to “Hotel California” and leave Octopus trapped forever.
Problem solved.

Nara is a former capital of Japan prior to the Shogun period. I think the capital moved from Nara to Kyoto also down south to Tokyo and then to Oda (Tokyo).
Nara is smaller than Koyoto but more beautiful. A schoolboy from Nara was swapped with a boy from Sydney Australia when the two cities became sister cities.Each boy lived with the family of the mayor of the city. Tabor lived with the Mayor of Sydney Harry Jensen and came to school where all the 11 little Jensen boys went. That was my old school and Tabor was in my class and we were BBF.
🙂
VERY uptight when he arrived complete with a Japanese high school uniform with a high collar and brass buttons. We ‘fixed’ that and within 6 months Tabor was 100% Aussie. We hiked in the Blue Mountains, caved and surfed at Maroubra beach or Coogee beach. Great times.
BBF = 🙂

Trump is the Master Troll, winning the Master Game with one mighty meme after another, while the Idiot Left/MSM Redundancy flails away piteously at his feet.
I just re-read his answer to the media from last week, where he advised Biden to “Go ahead and fight” the Tara Reade charges. Scott Adams, of “Dilbert”-fame, called it the most brilliant troll of his presidency. Well, there’s a lot of competition for that title. But that was precious! lol
gotta love it

That’s why Fatass is headed to Springfield this week to attempt to get his EO’s authorized as Laws with criminal penalties.
oh, man, that is lawsuit bait if I ever saw it, straight to SCOTUS. There’s a reason it’s called an EO and not a law.
