DifferentPerspective

Leftist Fake News
The morally bankrupt cultural Marxist “Emily Writes” at the Spinoff has done another of her screamingly dishonest posts in that ‘paragon’ of low brow blogism.

In this “fake news” pieces she dresses up Family First’s concern about forcing girls in schools to put up with boys in their bathrooms and changing rooms into

Bob McCoskrie and his perverted vocal minority are trying to get us to bully children about the toilets they use

Throughout the whole piece she goes through tortuous editorial gymnastics to avoid ever saying those trigger words/phrases that ordinary, decent people would be tipped off by “transgender”, “social engineering of our schools”, “made-up Orwellian thought crime”, “gender diversity tolerance” are all starkly absent from this dishonest hit piece.

This is why the Left can’t be trusted, this is why year after year the most awful National govt in recent times is voted back in.

It’s worth keeping an eye on this marginal puffery blog just to see how insidious the lies are from the cultural Marxists that make-up the Left these days.

    Yes they have stephie and if you’ve been paying attention you’ll have noted that in all of their marxist initiatives I, as a conservative, have been on here arguing vociferously against them. Go and look at the record, if you care to.

  Tucker subjects this transgender supporter to ridicule on Fox. Carlson knows how to get these weirdos in a flummox by asking direct questions; exquisite example of an airhead Leftist here.

        stephie, they can feel what they want, but it is unwise to make policy depending on people’s feelings as opposed to actual biological facts. All the wishing in the world won’t let a man become a woman just because he wants to. Heck (to use a phrase that liberals often use) this is the 21st Century isn’t it? We are so scientifically advanced we know just about everything there is to know about human biology and what makes a person male or female.
        
        What is amusing to me is that when it comes to subjects to do with creationism etc, liberals will always deflect to the argument that ‘science is king’. We should all focus on the Science rather than Faith. When it comes to human sexuality, however, science goes completely by the board and we have to take it on faith that a person is the gender they claim to be (or want to be).

        Stephie, I’m actually extremely liberal on these sorts of things. I’m a full believe that people can dress, act, talk, however the fuck they want. If that means a grown man with a penis wants to dress like a lady in a dress then so be it.
        
        But I’m also a realist. If you have a penis you are a male and you should use the men’s toilet, if only from a practicality sense (mens toilets have urinals, womens have sanitary bins, etc).

        The bleeding-heart libbewwal position on this is epitomised by snivelling Lizzie in the Herald today, she tells us that these poor people “truly are a woman” who has been cursed to have been born with a peepee – or “truly a man” who has been cursed to have been born with a vagina and boobs!
        
        Not a man with a problem in his mind / brain, or likewise a woman.
        
        Bleeding-heart libbewwals whole mindset is that their “thinking so”, makes it so. Not just on this issue either. Talk about arrested mental development!

        Nope. We’re still in the dark about a whole lot of human biology especially when it comes to the brain. We’ve identified the gene on the Y chromosome that is ultimately responsible for gender but we still don’t understand its downstream effects on the brain. We do however have good evidence that the brains of transgender people tend to differ from those of cisgender people.

    Classic. He even offered the guy $1000 if he could get any scientist to come on his show and explain the scientific basis for determining sex according to how people feel about their own identity.
    
    I think it probably pees these people off when Tucker physically laughs at their arguments on air as well. They deserve to be laughed at, as their arguments are amusing 🙂

PIZZAGATE CELEBRITY JAMES WOODS PUTS JOHN PODESTA ON BLAST OVER PIZZA GATE #SKIPPY

Democrat Party leaders are planning to agree on a strategy of all-out war against President Donald Trump at meetings this weekend, rather than work to achieve their policy goals through compromise.

      And today, the Republican South has the USA’s least racially segregated cities, which goes along with them being affordable (median multiples of around 3). In contrast the libbewwal cities in the North and West, have affordability problems and segregation problems.
      
      I look forward to Stephieboy challenging me for supporting links. There is an embarrassment of riches on these points, as there is on many things that contradict lefties mythical assumptions about regional cultures, policy outcomes, etc

How many think this woman’s view is extreme? I think she should try for a qualification in statistics. Let us say the 1 in 3 figure is correct for girls being sexually abused that does not mean 1 in 3 men sexual abuse children.

Why I won’t let any male babysit my children

  Well I can sympathise with her view if it’s about people from the Left.
  
  They seem to have a thing about men “doing” children, there’s Left’s:
  – the ‘no smoke without fire’ problem with pizzagate and
  – the ‘men in girls’ bathrooms push’ problem along with
  – the “Islam is OK because it legitimises grown men raping child brides” problem
  
  So you’d have to say – who’d want men from the Left babysitting kids if they believe these things?

    Longknives my reason for posting this item was to show that white, heterosexual, non Muslim males are about the only group that can be discriminated against in this way. Muslim women are the ones who preform FGM.
    
    If this woman had added lesbians and/or Muslim women to the group who could not babysit her daughters she would get a lot less support than she has which is not that much.

  Funny how in the last few years it’s female teachers who have been convicted of sex with their male students. There have been a whole swag of them. The media doesn’t seem to mind as much when it is women doing the offending though.

  As a male I am extremely hesitant to solo babysit for anyone – as if they go nutty then they can ruin your life with an accusation (that you have little ability to defend yourself from).
  
  Male teachers pretty much all get investigated every few years due to false accusations, and many leave the profession as a result of the stress and sense of fear/betrayal that results.

    This type of attitude is why there are so few male primary school teachers these days. Our boys are schooled without role models. Although perhaps that is what this woman would like to see; a bunch of emasculated drones to her Queen Bee.

Well Penny Hulme having a dig at the Government about online voting and there dry run should have been in the Mt Albert By Election. Well Penny you might think it is fine but with people like Kim Dot Com and Nicky Hager in our Country that boast about hacking and are allowed to make money from the proceeds of hacking how would you know that they will not stop to this low again. Both these people have promoted for a change of Government and have stated they will do every thing to have a new Government so you might have faith in this system I and a lot of other NZ’ers don’t while people like this legally make money from breaking the Law.

  Yep. As Stalin said, it’s not who votes it’s who counts the votes.
  
  Unless you have an auditable paper trail you cannot guarantee democratic integrity, and who on earth is so stupid as to imagine it’s unacceptably inconvenient to wander down to the local school at some point in the day once every three years, when the integrity of our, not your, but our, democracy is the subject in question.

      No I’m not suggesting that at all in any way stephie and anyone who thought I was doesn’t understand English and is probably incredibly stupid.
      
      BTW, when you reply to one of my posts in future, pray stick to the general subject of what I was saying, rather than go galavanting off into a completely different, unrelated topic. But since you ask, since I’ve never posted anything on Soros in relation to that, how the fuck should I know, and next time, please word such idiotic questions in such a way as to make it clear to readers that his is YOUR idea of a question, and DOES NOT equate in any way to anything the poster has said on the matter. In fact, if you do think I have said something about a question you plan to ask me in future, always link to the post where I made it. This is because I have extreme doubts about not only your intelligence but also your integrity stephie, for good reason, and therefore I’m asking you back yourself with evidence everytime in future, otherwise I’ll just report it as abuse, every single time.
      
      Over to others of course but if anyone else has been similarly assailed by stephie in the past with lies and innuendo, I suggest you take the same approach. It seems that could be the only way to stop this guy from libellous lying and slandering.

        I believe stephieboy is working a steady campaign of defamatory innuendo against a number of us posting here on KB, especially those of us with known identities.
        As this is an election year, the last thing I want is to have KB go offline. There is surely a limit to how many complaints DPF can deal with.
        
        At present, I’m just happy for stephieboy to keep adding to his pile of harassing and defamatory posts.
        I can’t see that he is making any converts.
        
        He daily confirms the repugnant behaviour of his political stance.

        I’d be with you on that Maggy if I thought stephie was capable of such deep thinking but I don’t.
        
        My analysis of him is that he’s a low intellect lefty green voter who hasn’t even moved past the basic understanding gained by maturity in most people, that not all people are as dumb as you are. This is why, I think, he conducts his daily operation of making counter-point after counter-point to posts in a vain attempt to “redress the balance.” It’s also why when he’s not doing that, he’s drawing fantastical conclusions about what the poster might think on a totally different topic, based on what the poster just said about something else.
        
        Those two tactics comprise 99% of his “contributions” and they both come from the same mindset. He’s so stupid he doesn’t understand that other people may be smarter than he is, therefore even if they do think “x,” this doesn’t necessarily mean they will also think “y.” But stephie can’t work that out, because he puts his idiotic thinking cap on when he reads something and thinks to his idiot self: “what would I think about “y” if I thought that about “x?” And he can’t comprehend that other people may have far more advanced nuance and evidence analytical skills than he does, which means that just because he might think that’s what they think, it doesn’t mean they do.
        
        As I say this is basic maturity 101, but he doesn’t have it, notwithstanding I believe he’s quite old.
        
        Given that he doesn’t seem to want to take on board, like most lefties, anything which conflicts his own pathetic and incorrect worldview, I have no sympathy for him and I wish he’d just fuck off because he adds absolutely no value whatsoever.
        
        Penny and philu added far, far, far more value than he has, or will. He’s that stupid.

        You are lying.
        Your question was,… was it a surprise that I had
        I had jumped onto the alt-right bandwagon?
        This is what you wrote:
        “Maggy W, is it not surprising a tree hugger like you has jumped onto the alt right band wagon ?
        
        Not really !
        
        That is is a clear public expression that I am on the alt-right.
        Your question pertains to the surprise bit.
        
        But remember you had previously linked me to neo-nazi and alt-right news sites.
        Material I have never referenced.
        
        So unless you can explain exactly what you meant by calling me an alt-righter, you had better accept that you have defamed me.
        
        This is your one and only opportunity to offer me a public apology.

        Notice he says “so there” at least several times in a normal week? Who, if they’re over twenty, ever says that, but in humour? Except he doesn’t say it in humour, does he. Just like Phil’s scientist says they would, if they had the dis-ease she apparently outlines.

Yesterday we had a post from a fascademic seeking to defend the humanities as a place for critical thinking when in fact the academic was not defending the humanities (they don’t need defending) but was promoting cultural marxism .

Here’s an example from Germany.

“During the carnival parade different troops dress up as characters from historical eras, with some troops dressing as knights and damsels. The Südend troops have represented the German colonial era.

The accusations against them have come from a group of academics from the Fulda College, who say that the troop is spreading a racist and colonial world view.

The group also criticised the costumes in an email, saying that “with this they are normalising and trivialising genocide, oppression, and the deprivation of rights.”

They demanded that the troop lose the colonial costumes and the “black-facing”, calling it “derogatory, inhumane, and racist”.

And of course these academic bullies have won.

https://www.thelocal.de/20170224/carnival-troop-to-have-police-escort-after-racism-accusations

As a descendant of the peasantry , I am offended by knight costumes, which promote notions of feudal oppression , dispossession and violence. They also glorify foreign wars and religious genocide in the Middle East .

  your noble ancestry is likely to outweigh your peasant ancestry. Peasants were less likely to have children that survived to adulthood than nobles, and there was a continual downward shift and displacement of peasants by the progeny of richer merchants and nobles.

This whole toilet gender debacle will be over very quickly when a group of boys enter a girls toilet and claim entitled use due to considering themselves to be gendered as girls.

Oh what a commotion that would cause. Only possible answer are unisex toilets.

Report in the Telegraph that Trump was right about Sweden’s immigration.

You won’t ever, ever, hear or see that correction on TVNZ.

Meanwhile TVNZ’s news hound in America, Rebecca Wrightweiler, has gone silent for a day or two. Can’t be any anti-Trump demonstrations worth covering.

  Sweden’s official Twitter account debunks Donald Trump claims line by line
  ‘I saw that this was a great opportunity to draw a line in the sand with facts,’ Max Karlsson tells The Independent
  
  An official Swedish Twitter account that is controlled by a different citizen each week has taken Donald Trump to task over his claims about the country.
  
  The US President was greeted with a mixture of confusion and ridicule after he told a campaign-style rally in Florida: “We’ve got to keep our country safe. You look at what’s happening in Germany, you look at what’s happening last night in Sweden. Who would believe this? Sweden! They took in large numbers, they’re having problems like they never thought possible.”

  Plus,
  
  “Meet the 22-year-old fighting Trump’s terror talk about Sweden from the country’s official Twitter feed,”
  
  Before President Trump’s reference on Saturday to a terror attack in Sweden, the biggest story in Stockholm was this one: a report about the so-called “fake news” industrypublished by Dagens Nyheter, a Swedish newspaper.
  
  But Trump’s remark was met with a collective “What did he just say?” in Sweden, a country recognized by most Americans as largely peaceful, except in, say, Stieg Larsson novels.
  
  “You look at what’s happening last night in Sweden,” the president said to his supporters at a campaign-style rally in Melbourne, Fla., on Saturday. “Sweden, who would believe this?” Trump later explained he was watching a Fox News segment that featured a documentary filmmaker accusing the Swedish government of covering up an immigration-related crime wave there.’

  It was the very next day after Trump pointed out Sweden was a disaster zone, that massive riots by Mohammedans broke out in the Swedish capital.
  
  This is the problem for the Globohomos, people can actually see what is going on with their own eyes or from family and friends, in their own streets, neigbourhoods and towns.
  
  The Globohomos have lost control of the narrative.

  The Trump/ Brexit revolution is having an effect even on the Quisling Swede PM who was at pains to contradict Trumps comments on Sweden.
  
  Having said that , there’s nothing like fear of being excluded from the trough to concentrate a pollie’s attention.
  
  “The Social Democrats have traditionally had a large working class voter base, and Löfven’s comments were seen as an attempt to win over voters fleeing to the anti-immigration far-right Sweden Democrats.”
  
  And why are voters “fleeing” to the so called anti immigrant party?

    Its national voters that vote for this to happen. State housing creates more “have nots” than “haves”, record immigration levels create more demand for housing than an economy NZ’s size can provide, even if there were no earthquakes destroying buildings. And increasing regulation like National has only makes housing more expensive. We are importing a city the size of Rotorua every year – thats just stupid. Its socialism branded with a big blue N.

        Utter bollocks. National control the regulatory regime and they have had 8 years to sort it out. National control the immigration policy and they’ve allowed RECORD levels of immigration to occur when infrastructure is already bursting. National have made houses more expensive to build by adding more regulatory burden.

    It is absolutely correct that “preserving the environment from housing development” is responsible for the house price problem. In reality it most often turns out to be protecting farmland rather than nice native bush etc.
    
    Almost any amount of growth can be catered for by sufficiently free-market supply. Several US cities have been growing at a rate of 20%+ per decade, with house price median multiples remaining between 3 and 4. Building houses and infrastructure at scale, especially in an era of low financing costs, is extremely good for an economy.
    
    I don’t know how long it will take the economics profession to wake up to these success-story urban economies; they are too busy obsessing at the moment, with the “success” of “creative-class cities” with growth containment policies, price gouging, inequality and exclusion. But whatever is being created in those cities, it is seldom blue collar jobs, other than menial ones in services for the well-off.

  dime , you really need to understand that Trump has not been the only one fighting human trafficking ,
  
  ” Obama signs anti-trafficking bill into law,”
  
  President Obama on Friday signed anti-human trafficking legislation that emerged from Congress after being the subject of a bitter battle on Capitol Hill earlier this year.
  
  “Obama signed the Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act of 2015, White House press secretary Josh Earnest announced in a statement late in the evening”

      Nope, the rate of interior deportation, the removal of undocumented residents, fell under Obama.
      
      ICE removed 65,332 aliens from the interior in 2016. That is a decline of 6 percent from 2015 and down 73 percent from 2009, the year President Obama took office.

I wonder how many people would have thought we would have learnt from our misdeeds on Pacific Islanders fifty years or so ago and now we have the same sort of vendetta against Muslims. While I don’t completely agree with our Immigration Policy it does not mean that all Muslims carry the same stigma and deserve the abuse they are tarnished with by some NZ’ers.

  Yes this is what I too have pointed out for decades HC but the point is, there is a branch of Islam which does act like what people say, and it is Wahabbi, who come from the Sunni side of the family.
  
  And Wahabbi practices are what ISIS follows and teaches. Of course the home of Wahabbism is Saudi Arabia.
  
  So you have to wonder, don’t you, why the people who decry Islam in general don’t specifically focus their rage upon the specific target that is the demonstrable root cause, and demand that Western govts take specific action specifically against that specific branch. But they never do. Perhaps they’re waiting for the media to explain it all to them before they “believe it.”

      How come for instance some of the Western sheeple see straight through for instance Killary but they fail to see straight through the exact same propaganda when it comes to say Wussia, China, or anything else?

      I have noticed a couple of occurrences in NZ recently where the Muslims speaking out about how peaceable they are, are “Ahmadiyya Muslims”. Look into this a bit more, and you will see they are regarded as apostates by pretty much all the rest of Islam. Their peaceableness is based on their belief that the 5th Imam came a century ago, therefore a promised peaceable period has begun; but the rest of Islam does not share their belief in the guy they say it was.
      
      It is like saying Rastafarians represent Christianity, when 99.9% of Christians do not believe Ras Tafari was the Second Coming.
      
      What I want to ask these Ahmadiyya Muslims, is why they seem to be providing cover for the bulk of Muslims, from whom they themselves are under threat of violence for their apostasy? Or is it NZ MSM spin that is responsible?

I suppose clueless deplorables could be excused, but paying attendees trolled with a Russian flag, priceless.

People attending the Conservative Political Action Conference could be seen waving small Russian flags emblazoned with the word “Trump” during President Trump’s speech.

It appeared to be a prank. CPAC workers quickly began to collect the flags after they were being waved.

Lets pimp the poor and attack the Government, Sue Moroney edition #53,455

Long suffering taxpayer pays 25 THOUSAND dollars for 4 months rent for ferals. Thats 75 THOUSAND dollars a year! Of course Moroney thinks we’re not doing enough.

Premium motel rates ‘danger money’ for emergency housing risk

Waikato Motel Association president and owner of the Ulster Lodge in Hamilton Narinder Sagoo said his members are stuck in the middle, wanting to help but with businesses to run.

Premium rates for emergency housing is “almost like danger money”. Some motel rooms have been trashed, leaving motel owners with huge repair bills.

“It’s like a rock and a hard place. They want to continue their business in a good fashion but they are also taking on board a significant risk and this is where the gaps between Winz and business need to be strengthened,” Sagoo said.

Some people are in dire straits, he said. Others have social issues. There is drug use and partying and businesses are ill equipped to manage.

“If you have someone who is trying to have a party and they don’t understand why they are not allowed to and all of your business customers walk out, there are cross purposes.

  Is a black Muslim the answer?
  
  Weird, because I thought it was all about the person’s skills, not whether they were black, and not whether they were Muslim. But that seems to be all you can see.

    Whereas all lefties seem to be able to see is that if he’s white and he’s a man, therefore he’s evil, and anything else has to be good, no matter how bad or incompetent the person who is their selected alternate actually happens to be.
    
    It’s called identity politics tricky. It’s what you lefties do, and you do that and nothing but. Manban quota is just a small example.
    
    Meritocracy is the way to go and conservatives do that, it’s just that white men happen to be so fucking good at nearly everything you lefties get all confused and think we’re cheating.

      Let me add to that:
      
      …if he’s white and he’s a man, therefore he’s evil, and if he is a Christian Fundamentalist, he is the worst of the worst, somehow even worse than the bulk of white males, who are already by definition, “Nazis”.

      If you could ever point to a post where I had said “Is a white man the answer?” then I would absolutely give you that.

        So the left doesn’t practice identity politics? Is that what you’re saying? Otherwise pray explicate because I just don’t understand why whether or not you said “Is a white man the answer” is germane, not even with my white manliness with all that experience of building the Western civilisation surging through my very DNA.

        Nope, I’m saying that isolated individual people all over the spectrum do all sorts of things, but you can’t apply the one as a broad brush to all.
        
        Not only is it what you have done, it is also is what Chuck has implied (what, he’s Muslim? You know what THEY’RE like; what he’s black? You know what THEY’RE like)

      The entire meritocratic approach which built Western civilisation has been degraded by political correctness at the heart of which is identity politics. That’s why every single Western society is so fucked up and getting worse by the year, as more and more identity politics are foisted on us.

MSM Meltdown in all it’s glorious hues

True to form the comment section is totally anti President Trump (snicker)

Several major US news outlets found themselves blocked from attending a White House briefing with press secretary Sean Spicer.

The New York Times, CNN, the Los Angeles Times and Politico were among the news organisations prevented from attending on Friday, according to posts by reporters from those outlets on social media, as were several foreign news organisations.

The move is the latest sign of worsening relations between the Trump administration and the media attempting to cover it.

AP and Time declined to take part. The White House was said to have invited press organisations to the event.

At 5.5% annually, that means Rates double every 12.7 years.

The Christchurch Council has an appalling reputation.

In a MBIE Regional Report last November, over the past decade, compound employment growth for Christchurch has been 0.3%, Waimak 5.3% and Selwyn 9.8% with the national average 1.4%. So Christchurch has been about a quarter the national average with Waimak about 4 times and Selwyn a whopping 7 times ! … see attached …

A teenage boy has been beheaded by ISIS for simply listening to Western music.
Ayham Hussein, 15, was arrested by militants after allegedly being caught enjoying pop tunes on a portable CD player in the group’s Iraqi capital Mosul.
He was dragged before a Islamist kangaroo court which sentenced him death in a public execution.

  ABS , thats very sad but the kind of barbaric behaviour we have come to expect from ISIS. Fortunately for us not all Muslims are into this kind of thing and notably in our country too.
  
  Its similar to equating German Catholics and Protestants with the SS’s barbaric behaviour in the East .
  
  Yes antisemitism does exist amongst some Muslims but also among many Trump supporters as the President has , at last,,reminded them,

    He was speaking at the end of a tour of the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, which Trump said showed “why we have to fight bigotry, intolerance and hatred in all of its very ugly forms.”
    
    The comments marked a change for Trump, who had not explicitly and publicly condemned the threats against Jews when asked last week. Instead, he spoke more generally about his hopes of making the nation less “divided.”
    
    The president reacted with anger at a news conference last week when a journalist from a Jewish magazine asked how his government planned to “take care” of a rise in threats.
    
    Trump berated the reporter for asking a “very insulting” question, appearing to believe the reporter was accusing him of being anti-Semitic.
    
    “Number one, I am the least anti-Semitic person that you’ve ever seen in your entire life,” the president said, adding that he was also the least racist person. Trump has often noted that one of his daughters is a convert to Judaism, he has Jewish grandchildren and he employs many Jews in his business.
    
    I note he instantly condemns the violence, compared with Obama who has had nothing to say about Black on Black violence, ever.

More than 300 scientists have urged President Trump to withdraw from the U.N.’s climate change agency, warning that its push to curtail carbon dioxide threatens to exacerbate poverty without improving the environment.
In a Thursday letter to the president, MIT professor emeritus Richard Lindzen called on the United States and other nations to “change course on an outdated international agreement that targets minor greenhouse gases,” starting with carbon dioxide.
“Since 2009, the US and other governments have undertaken actions with respect to global climate that are not scientifically justified and that already have, and will continue to cause serious social and economic harm — with no environmental benefits,” said Mr. Lindzen, a prominent atmospheric physicist.
Signers of the attached petition include the U.S. and international atmospheric scientists, meteorologists, physicists, professors and others taking issue with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change [UNFCCC], which was formed in 1992 to combat “dangerous” climate change.

  Challenging the catastrophic climate change narrative, Mr. Lindzen describes carbon dioxide as “plant food, not poison.”
  “Restricting access to fossil fuels has very negative effects upon the wellbeing of people around the world,” he says in his letter.
  “It condemns over 4 billion people in still underdeveloped countries to continued poverty.”

  “Nobel Laureates Issue A Call To Action On Climate Change”
  
  “At the 65th annual edition of the Lindau Nobel Laureates Meetings, held from June 28-July 3 in Lindau, Germany, on the shores of Lake Constance, 65 laureates gathered with 650 young scientists from 88 countries for a week of lectures and discussion that included several calls to action…
  
  But most prominent—and formal—was raised on the final day of the conference, held on nearby Mainau Island: a call to address climate change. 2011 Physics laureate Brian Schmidt introduced the Mainau Declaration 2015 on Climate Change, signed by 36 Nobel laureates, to the hundreds of laureates, scientists and other attendees. “Nearly 60 years ago, here on Mainau, a similar gathering of Nobel Laureates in science issued a declaration of the dangers inherent in the newly found technology of nuclear weapons—a technology derived from advances in basic science,” he said. “We believe that our world today faces another threat of comparable magnitude.”
  While Schmidt acknowledged that there were laureates who did not want to publicly express an opinion, he stated that “those of us who sign do so because we feel we have a moral-bound duty as a scientist on an issue that has such lasting consequences…We say this not as experts in the field of climate change, but rather as a diverse group of scientists who have a deep respect for and understanding of the integrity of the scientific process…..”

    All on Red , from the link :
    
    “Nothing like this has ever happened at the White House in our long history of covering multiple administrations of different parties,” Dean Baquet, executive editor of The New York Times, said in a statement.
    
    “We strongly protest the exclusion of The New York Times and the other news organizations. Free media access to a transparent government is obviously of crucial national interest.”
    
    BuzzFeed’s editor-in-chief, Ben Smith, also responded to his outlet being barred from the briefing: “While we strongly object to the White House’s apparent attempt to punish news outlets whose coverage it does not like, we won’t let these latest antics distract us from the work of continuing to cover this administration fairly and aggressively.”
    
    And the BBC’s Washington bureau chief, Paul Danahar, said: “We understand there may be occasions when, due to space or circumstances, the White House restricts press events to the established pool.
    
    “However, what happened today did not fit into that pattern. On this occasion selected media were allowed to attend the briefing and the selected media, including the BBC, were not.
    
    “The BBC has a representative at every daily White House briefing so we are not clear why we were barred from today’s. We have sought clarification from the White House Press team. Out reporting will remain fair and impartial regardless.”
    
    Several media outlets including the Associated Press and TIME Magazine declined to attend the briefing to boycott the President’s decision.
    
    A Wall Street Journal reporter attended the meeting without being aware of the circumstances. The publication later promised to boycott similar press briefings.
    
    “The Wall Street Journal strongly objects to the White House’s decision to bar certain media outlets from today’s gaggle,” a spokesperson with the newspaper said in a statement. “Had we known at the time, we would not have participated and we will not participate in such rest
    
    Fox News anchor Bret Baier discouraged conservative news outlets who celebrated the gaggle, citing organisations who defended his network when former President Obama tried to freeze out Fox News in 2009.
    
    “Some at CNN and New York Times stood with Fox News when the Obama admin attacked us and tried to exclude us,” he wrote on Twitter, “a White House gaggle should be open to all credentialed orgs.”

        Not so Red, there’s a difference between the White House media briefings and “off the record” meetings.

        The current (Obama) White House is not unique in using secret presidential face time to try to influence coverage. Previous presidents of both parties regularly invited columnists to the White House for off-the-record sessions.
        
        It’s Breitbart that’s being dishonest here.

Is this terrorism, or just a deranged individual?

“Adam Purinton, 51, was charged in Johnson County, Kansas, with one count of premeditated first degree murder and two counts of attempted premeditated first degree murder, Johnson County District Attorney Stephen Howe told a news conference.

Purinton is accused of shooting and killing Srinivas Kuchibhotla, 32, and wounding Alok Madasani, also 32, in the Austins Bar and Grill in Olathe, Kansas, on Wednesday evening, according to a statement from the Olathe Police Department.

At least one bystander told the Kansas City Star that the man shouted “get out of my country” before shooting the Indian men. He is also accused of wounding American Ian Grillot, 24, who was shot when he tried to intervene, the Kansas City Star reported.”

Prisoners to earn jail time reduction under Act Party policy.
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=11807537.
“Prisoners would have their time in jail slashed if they complete literacy, numeracy and driver licensing courses, under new Act Party policy.
Former Labour president Mike Williams, now with the Howard League for Penal Reform, strongly backs the policy and said it could cut reoffending by as much as 50 per cent”.

Really!!!.
I would like to see how he arrived at that nice round figure or did he just pull it out of his arse because it sounded dramatic.

  It’s not that implausible. Could be worth a trial.
  
  If you can’t read, you can’t write and you can’t drive, you have no chance of employment when you come out of prison.
  
  You really need to offer ex-prisoners some alternative to being on a benefit forever (or going back to offending).
  
  Which alternative do you prefer?

    Sorry I think it is nonsense especially when most overseas countries who have trialled this type of thing achieve reduction rates in the 20-25% range.

  Yeah it sounds implausible. Correlation is not cause. Sure, if they had literacy in the first place they prob wouldn’t be inside but once you’ve already become a thug and lets face it to clock up enough convictions to actually end up inside these days means you’ve done a lot along the thuggery line to get there, then once you can read all you’re going to be is become an educated thug.
  
  Maybe what we need to do is tell them they’re not going to ever get out unless and until they achieve certain literacy standards. And if that means life inside well, that’s up to them, isn’t it.

  Why not? Going to prison now looks to be a viable way to get a university education if you are a poor young person from a depressed region or poor suburb.
  
  Reward poor choices, could be a motto for this type of programme.

  S&S, Williams didn’t use a precise figure, he said “…. it could cut reoffending by as much as 50 per cent”.
  
  And if 50% isn’t achieved, it could still be a very worthwhile initiative if society is genuine in its desire for rehabilitation of prisoners where that is achievable. As with fernglas at 4:35pm, “20-25% works for me”.

A question please to those with a greater knowledge of election law than myself.

Today is the day of the Mt Albert by-election and I’ve just seen an opposition MP going door to door, down Alberton Ave, and emblazoned with the rosette of his party.

Is this kosher? I thought that on an election day all ‘advertising’ was not allowed and I would have thought a rosette would meet that criteria. Have I got this wrong?

“You are not in control” (reminds me of cfl lightbulbs, developed to save the terrible expense of disposing of mercury by providing a method of having it deposited in landfills, one improperly disposed of lightbulb at a time, where it will poison the water supply forever):

“. . . What is it about the car-dependent living arrangement, and the landscape it enables, that the technosphere finds to be efficient? The surprising answer is that the technosphere strives to optimize the burning of gasoline; everything else is just a byproduct of this optimization.

It turns out that the fact that so many people are forced to own a car has nothing to do with transportation and everything to do with petroleum chemistry. About half of what can be usefully extracted from a barrel of crude oil is in the form of gasoline. It is possible to boost the fraction of other, more useful products, such as kerosene, diesel fuel, jet fuel and heating oil, but not by much and at a cost of reduced net energy. But gasoline is not very useful at all. It is volatile (quite a lot of it evaporates, especially in the summer); it is chemically unstable and doesn’t keep for long; it is toxic and carcinogenic. It has a rather low flash point, limiting the compression ratio that can be achieved by gasoline-fueled engines, making them thermodynamically less efficient. It is useless for large engines, and is basically a small-engine fuel. Gasoline-powered engines don’t last very long because gasoline-air mixture is detonated (using an electric spark) rather than burned, and the shock waves from the detonations cause components to wear out quickly. They have few industrial uses; all of the serious transportation infrastructure, including locomotives, ships, jet aircraft, tractor-trailers, construction equipment and electrical generators run on petroleum distillates such as kerosene, jet fuel, diesel oil and bunker fuel.

If it weren’t for widespread private car ownership, gasoline would have to be flared off at refineries, at a loss. In turn, the cost of petroleum distillates—which are all of the industrial fuels—would double, and this would curtail the technosphere’s global expansion by making long-distance freight much more expensive. The technosphere’s goal, then, is to make us pay for the gasoline by forcing us to drive. To this end, the landscape is structured in a way that makes driving necessary. The fact that to get from a Motel 8 on one side of the road to the McDonalds on the other requires you to drive two miles, navigate a cloverleaf, and drive two miles back is not a bug; it’s a feature. When James Kunstler calls suburban sprawl “the greatest misallocation of resources in human history” he is only partly right. It is also the greatest optimization in exploiting every part of the crude oil barrel in the history of the technosphere.”

Did you know BTW if you break a cfl lightbulb you need to leave the room for 15 mins and ventilate so the mercury vapour doesn’t get you? And never cut yourself on the glass, you’re likely to get a raging infection. Again, because of the mercury in it. Lefties never told you that, did they. Most of them probably don’t even know. Aren’t lefties stooooooooooooopid.

And isn’t it evil, they’re phasing out the manufacture of the good old reliable, environmentally friendly carbon filament variety in favour of the cfl’s, giving you absolutely no choice in the matter.

  Perhaps they could sell bits of wreckage as lucky relics.
  
  I don’t think there were any fatalities when the cathedral began to tumble down on staff and visitors. People working in the archives below even emerged safely.
  
  But should it be rebuilt? I think the cathedral is an important part of Canterbury history and should be reconstructed, but not necessarily into a grandiose, expensive edifice. Bells would be good, though.
  
  One of the most touching sites in Berlin decades ago used to be the ruins of the Gedächtniskirche, the Protestant church whose skeleton survived the bombing. The tower from this moving symbol has been retained as a dramatic part of the new church.
  
  Perhaps the standing ruin of the old Cathedral could do the same for Christchurch as part of a new building.

  Jack that’s very sad.
  
  A Swedish journo asking why its all gone wrong points not to the politicians who let them all in but to the lack of integration services which presumably in his fevered imagination are the root cause of the whole affair. And presumably he thinks that had they been there in adequate proportion no matter what it cost Swedes to accommodate complete and total rude and belligerant strangers who’d never paid a cent of Swedish tax in their entire lives and most of them never will, then none of this would have happened.
  
  WAKE THE FUCK UP MAN is all one can say to such a fool.
  
  People who don’t already know precisely who has done precisely what and precisely why to bring this all about right across Western Europe from the 60’s on which is when the preparatory social engineering programs began, really should educate themselves. The whole thing has been prepped waiting for the trigger which was Syria, again, generated by precisely the same people.
  
  The reason why people need to educate themselves on this is because its happening here as well.
  
  Here and in Aus, its been a much much more subtle silent coup. Here, as in Aus, we don’t have the same ThinkTank infrastructure to design, monitor and tweak the social engineering. Here, as in Aus, our politicians are, by comparison to the more sophisticated Europeans, rank amateurs in the lying and treason depts, as are the people in the support infrastructures for the program, such as in the intelligence agencies and security agencies, academia and the idiot media.
  
  But like all Western countries both us and Aus are being taken down by the same people who have bought Sweden and the entire Western European continent to the world and the same fate awaits us, eventually.
  
  The Asians and the house prices in Akld are the start. The Indonesians and 100 tramp steamers each loaded with 500 poorly educated, seething, angry Muslims arriving off our coastline, will be the end, because by then, the US as we know it will have long disappeared and who else is there.
  
  The root cause are the people who’ve done Sweden. That’s why you all need to educate yourself.

    reid , it could be helpful to know that immigrants other than Asians have arrived here including Brits and other favoured ” Europeans ”
    
    Also it is useful to know that the housing shortage has been exasperated by returning kiwis from Austrlia ( lack of work ) and elsswhere.
    
    It is strongly doubtful that poorly educated Muslims or whatever could make it across the Tasman to our coastline in leaky tramp steamers n’t They couldn’t make it to OZ so why do you think they could make it a further c 4000 ks due West ?

Two hillbillies walk into a restaurant. While having a bite to eat, they talk about their moonshine operation.
Suddenly, a woman at a nearby table, who is eating a sandwich, begins to cough.
After a minute or so, it becomes apparent that she is in real distress. One of the hillbillies looks at her and says, Kin ya swallar?’
The woman shakes her head no. Then he asks, ‘Kin ya breathe?’
The woman begins to turn blue, and shakes her head no.
The hillbilly walks over to the woman, lifts up her dress, yanks down her drawers, and quickly gives her right butt cheek a lick with his tongue.
The woman is so shocked that she has a violent spasm, and the obstruction flies out of her mouth.As she begins to breathe again, the Hillbilly walks slowly back to his table. His partner says, ‘Ya know, I’d heerd of that there ‘Hind Lick Maneuver’ but I never seed nobody done it.

  Correct Ballsack, and there were 131 lunatics in Mt. Albert who gave their vote to Penny, giving her 1.009% of the total votes cast.
  That was a stunning achievement, and I’m sure she’ll be trumpeting it from the rooftops tomorrow.
  Of course 100% of the lunatic vote is a far greater endorsement than 1.009% of the lefties who actually bothered in the absence of a National candidate.
  And the chippie girl got exactly 10,000 votes. Is that too much of a coincidence or do we need a recount?

      They seem to need frequent reminders about material that has been previously canvassed.
      Perhaps it is a genuine cognition disability, but much more likely to be different posters who can’t keep abreast of each others’ postings and associated responses.

    Why would you think I’m somali-phobic, stephieboy?
    
    And what do you mean by that word also?
    
    How many Somalians do you think I taught in Wellington?
    Do you know any Somalians here in NZ, stephieboy?

        @stephieboy
        do you know any somalians?
        
        Like have you ever chatted to one, or watched a team of them play soccer, or told a couple of them where East is, so they can do their 5pm prayer when they’re out in the bush with you.
        
        Or are you just indulging in nasty harassing innuendo, yet again?

        Why are there no Stephiestanis in the Government statistics from which you quote?
        
        This may be construed as evidence that the whole Stephiestani troll team is in NZ illegally.
        
        Your defence, Stephie Y?

        No stephieboy, Maggy was not talking about the staff at the mental health unit you have to visit as part of your court ordered treatment order, for stalking young Muslima girls in the park.

        So you don’t have many Somali friends. Sad, but it’s not only “Europeans” who can be prejudiced against Africans and isolated from them. (See my link below.)
        
        Even I have broken bread with Somalis in NZ, and I’m not exactly into multiculturism.
        
        But it sounds as though folk from the Indian subcontinent, including Stephiestanis, along with Arabs, are isolated from New Zealand Somalis, even though most Somalis are followers of the same religion.

@stephieboy

You seem to have forgotten that it was me that first put up a link to the somali graduate journal here on KB.

Funny old habit of us ex-teachers… but we like to see that our students are doing well in the big wide world.

stephieboy, why do you think I could possibly be somali-phobic?

Did you actually watch that video clip of South Africans protesting against somali immigration?

Yes I would stephieboy.

I am deeply concerned about their safety after hearing reports of young Muslim boys being approached by a very strange creepy man, in the Keith Hay and Mt Roskill war memorial park .

Stephie Y:

If you want to break away from Islam, may be we can help get you on the underground railway to the South Island, and hide you from the mullahs until you lose your Stephiestani accent.

Do you want to escape from Islam?

Don’t turn to Dame Devoid – she’ll probably hand you over to the mosque. But we have your welfare at heart.

  stephieboy lives in constant fear they will find out about him being gay. That is why he often stalks young Muslim women. He has no idea how to act around females, so he seriously creeps them out, but it does act as a good cover, so his Imam won’t find out he is a raging poofter.

Stephie Y (12.07)….

Got it! You’re blogging to us in code that you want to go to Dunedin, which you have previously called a Medina.

There are a lot of Muslims there who might not take kindly to your defection.

Can we suggest a small southern town near Dunedin would be safer?

You better get your travelling gear together. Some warm, Western clothes, and the beard will have to go. Perhaps get rid of that skull cap thing and get a baseball hat.

We’ll alert the underground railway you’re about to ~~hump~~ jump the camel.

In the meantime, keep up the Muslim propaganda on Kiwiblog so that Stephie X and Stephie Y don’t become suspicious.

[Service message to all Kiwibloggerites who are volunteers in the Freedom Railway.]

Coming through: short, paunchy, light olive-skinned Stephiestani. Will be in Western clothes. Will be clutching glossy porn magazine.

Instructions: send him on.

Message to Sam Groan: That message at 11.44 was very good cover. But remember it’s you who is to play the homeless alcoholic. You do it so well. Stick to that.

    Surely you must have been told before about getting too close to the Muslim escapers when you’re on the hard stuff.
