Things that annoy me (9 Viewers)

[Horus]

I am thankful that we use more civilised punishment in Australia.

If islam carries on advancing as fast as it has, then Sharia law will be, The law in Oz, UK and much of Europe if not within our lifetimes, then by the following generation.

Albanese, saw for himself yesterday, being chased from a mosque with shouts directed at him of Putrid Dog, ringing in his ears, and yet within hours he was back to his appeasement, just like the idiot here.

Which will result in far more deaths by following 7th century ideology as the left in Iran found out for themselves as the clerics took control there forty seven years ago, when they found themselves being stoned to death, hanged and so on.

As the saying goes....................follow the money.

As noted, wasn't Trump bragging that their strikes on Iran awhile ago wiped out their nuclear capabilities; now according to him they were 10 minutes away from developing nukes?

Right; sure they were.............


Yup; follow the money.

Pressure from Israeli lobbyists...that may be true...

The director of the National Counterterrorism Center, a retired Green Beret and longtime supporter of President Donald Trump, says he has resigned over the war in Iran…“I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran...Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation," Joe Kent said in a statement posted on X on Tuesday..."It is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.”

If you think the stock market and tariffs are your only problem...which are huge problems...you’ve barely skimmed the top of the barrel…

Commercial flights have almost ground to a halt...as some airports are closing due to TSA employees walking off their job from no pay...and I don’t blame them…the battle over the funding of ICE...could be solved with removing masks...adding body cameras and a visible ID...not asking that much...most police officers in the USA already adhere to this...

Oil is going to keep going up...as Iran is attacking neighboring oil facilities...and Israel has attacked Iran’s...decreasing the ability to produce and ship oil…operating through the Straight of Hormuz is a nightmare...long lines at gas pumps might be coming soon...you remember them?

Inflation rates doubled this month as the job market also declined…

Affordability is a huge issue...America runs on shipping...shipping by trucks is increasing the cost of EVERYTHING…

The national debt has surpassed $49 trillion...the interest alone is over $1 trillion a year...that’s just the interest...not paying anything on the principal…

America’s relationships with our “former allies” is in the trash…we have alienated ourselves from them in the last year...

Energy prices are up...heating and cooling your home…

The list goes on and on...everything is in the toilet...but the thing that scares me them most is domestic terrorism…

read the below article...especially the part about multiple waves of 12-15 unidentified custom built drones with “advanced knowledge” of signal operations flying over our Air Force base in Louisiana where we house our $2 billion B-52 bombers…drones are vey effective...

now it’s getting really scary!

An expert suggests the incident at Barksdale Air Force Base was “deliberate and intentional” to see how the base might react.

Too much gambling on Sports (and everything else) these days.
Story:
Dad's a kid and asks Grandpa why he's laughing.
He says [his mom] just came back from a week of gambling and said, "I finally broke even, and boy, did I need it!"
So he wasn't a gambler. Some people can't take it.
Best Wishes

Steve, it's always the fanatics that spoil things, and I'm cautious of things they say. I'm not a fan of Albanese, but he's doing his best to keep things calm. Many Muslims are upset in Australia, partly due to the preference given to Jews here recently, you have to keep things fair otherwise people tend to overreact.

I don't like Drummond...but this is stupid...$25,000...sounds excessive...maybe a warning not to do it again would of been better...




NEW YORK -- Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond has been fined $25,000 for what the NBA described as an objectionable gesture while on the court.

NBA executive vice president and head of basketball operations James Jones announced the penalty Saturday.

The incident occurred with eight seconds left in the third quarter of the 76ers' 139-118 victory at Sacramento on Thursday.

After knocking down a 3-pointer, Drummond appeared to make a shooting motion toward the Kings' bench, according to a report.

Drummond finished the game with 13 points, including going 3-for-3 from behind the arc, and 11 rebounds.

Nope, it's more like follow the B.S.! Look at who runs More Perfect Union and "follow the money" that funds it, they're hardly unbiased to say the least.

Oh well, at least most countries have seen the light.

Seriously, this is bordering on offensive. Maybe on some opinions, you should let it go, unless you walked in my family's shoes and the tragedy that ensued, I would cut out the retorts as they get to be insulting. You do not have a right to judge others feelings about a certain subject. There is no "seeing the light". You have a right to an opinion, not a judgement. This is not a debate at this point. IN other words, until you experience a tragedy first hand as a result of a planned mass murder, seriously, STFU.

It is called punishment for a reason, NOT rehabilitation and I have no earthly interest in this individual's rehabilitation. He is currently sentenced to death and of course appealing, if I could put the noose legally around his neck, I would. I guess people like you judge other people for that reaction. JC and you wonder why we have a f'd up world.

"Preference to Jews", what because of the atrocity that occurred????

I wouldn't call that "preference", sounds more like humanity.

Only pointing out one thing here - I fly every week, No delays at TSA in any of the airports I was at - BWI, Phoenix, Hobby, Austin, Dallas. I think what is being reported is biased. YES, TSA is reduced and I don't blame them, BUT, even when at full staff, if you got to an airport at rush hour ie 6-9am, the lines were always longer. What I think is happening is the press (and none in particular, it is all of them) are filming at rush hour and showing it out of context. TSA always took between 10 to 30 mins at peak times, so if they show it now with some of the reductions it is what 15 to 35 mins max, probably average is still 15mins. For any off peak times I have flown this year, I have not waited more than 5 mins.

And on a funny note about this, one of the idiot news stations here set up last week at TSA in BWI with camera crew, reporter and there were..............2 of us in line, we waived much to their dismay.

I am not saying there are not isolated slow goings in some airports, but I have not seen any of it perse and I fly a lot to a lot of busy airports. I still don't think it is right they are not being paid, that is a failure on all of Congress

Tom...

you may be right...but the live stories on the news show a very different story...

and as far as getting their full staffs back to work...I agree with you...these people are suffering financially...

I have seen food banks set up for the TSA...donation drives...proposed tip boxes for flyers...gift cards are even a suggestion...

Congress needs to resolve the ICE issue and refund/refinance the TSA immediately...

and not that I have heard of any incidents more than some fist fights between disgruntled flyers and TSA agents...but I would also suggest more security...
