Guest Post: Hold The Front Page
A guest post by Spartacus Oblivious:
On Sunday we were in mourning because the All Blacks had lost, we were happy because our Olympic medal haul was looking good and the rest of the world was bubbling away with the usual conflict and mayhem. Plenty of opportunity amongst that lot for a good headline then.
So what does the Herald on Sunday lead with?
Well, turns out a big District Commander had been mean to some of his staff.
Queue the outrage
“Bruce has been found by the “Independent Police Conduct Authority” to have bullied a senior officer by yelling at them in two senior management meeting leaving the staffer feeling belittled and disrespected”
Shit, If a day went by where I wasn’t belittled and disrespected at work, I would think I wasn’t having any sort of impact.
How is it possible for senior officers to be so emotionally fragile that they go running to some sort of mummy organisation to say that they have been picked on.
And what is this signalling to the crims, If they toss a few insults at pursuing cops insults like ooh I don’t know .. “If we gave you an enema we could bury you in a match box” then they know the cops would sculk off and cry in a corner.
This is the inevitable outcome when we feminise everything, want safe spaces, want hate speech banned, and are always looking to others to protect us from everything. Including now emotional slights.
Man up I say, even if you are a woman
The first and second commandments for all of us should be
1 Don’t be a wuss
2 Really I mean it, don’t be a wuss
