AUSTRALIA DAY IS 26TH JANUARY

AUSTRALIA DAY - 26TH JANUARY

Congratulations to Fremantle.  They have single handedly alienated themselves from the rest of Australia because of their narrow minded decision to move Australia Day celebrations to the 28th of January so as not to offend anyone.  They used the banner of being culturally sensitive.

What a load of bullshit.

Australia Day is the 26th of January, just like Christmas Day is 25th December and Anzac Day 25th April.  The flogs at Fremantle who have made this decision supposedly on behalf of their community, are misguided to say the least.  Did they canvas the community?

It is un-Australian to not celebrate Australia Day on the 26th of January.  Whether you agree with it or not, this is our national day.  I feel for the Aboriginal community as they were persecuted beyond belief by many European settlers.  On the other side of the coin, and this is often over looked was the fact that the country from this date in 1788 was settled by convicts from England.  Many of the convicts were sent here without their families or friends from back home and many of them were convicted of relatively minor offences, compared with today's standards.  There is the key words 'Today's Standards'.

Today, we naturally find the historical events of 1788 and the persecusion of the Aboriginal communities to be totally abhorrent.  Just as dumb founding was the removal from their home country, thousands of convicts and sent to a foreign land and then left to effectively fend for themselves.  How bloody cruel.

Since settlement of this great country of our's we as a Nation have evolved into a country that is the envy of many, especially the 'home' country.  Yes, our leaders have made mistakes over the 228 years with the treatment of Aboriginals, Children, Mental Health, English migrants, Migrants in general, assylum seekers and as a country, just like us in our personnal lives, we find some of our most heinous mistakes quite embarrassing.

I feel that from these mistakes our Nation has learned and grown as a result.  Comapred to many other countries around the world in Australia the closest we come to civil war is on the football field when Adelaide play Collingwood or in the NRL Queensland take on New South Wales.  Our crowds at these sporting events are largely well behaved, we don't have weekly riots.  We have never had a Prime Minister assassinated, although we all like to hate our politicians we a free to sling crap at them in the media or face to face when we disagree with their policies.

In our personnal lives we are a Nation that prides itself on giving people a second chance.  Countries, just like people do make mistakes.  It's when we keep making the same mistakes is when it becomes a real issue.  I really feel for the 'stolen generation', I also could not imagine the anguish back in 1788 and the years that followed for the Aboriginal people, but we cannot constantly blame the country for mistakes made over 200 years ago, when back then that was 'Standard Practice' just like slavery in the U.S and beheading's in the Queen Victoria years.  Just imagine you lose your drivers license for drink driving when you are 22 years old, then still having the system continuing to mention your indiscretion when you are 80.  We would feel that this is somewhat unfair.

So Fremantle you go and celebrate 'Fremantle Day' because you sure as hell are not celebrating Australia Day.  Here is a thought, maybe Fremantle has decided to help South Australia celebrate it's Procolamtion Day!  Oh how kind of you Fremantle, hope you can get enough supplies of South Aussie Flags.

Can we please as a whole rise up against these flogs in our society who have nothing better to do with their time than run around raining on everyone's parade for fear of offending someone.  The fact that Fremantle have gone down this rocky road, offends me as a proud Aussie and I assume most other Australian's.

Just imagine people suggesting that the USA move Independence Day, India move Republic Day or Saudi Arabia move Unification of the Kingdom day just so they didn't offend 'some' people, they would be laughed out of the country at least.

AUSTRALIA DAY IS 26TH JANUARY 

AND THAT IS THAT

PROTECTING YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR HOME

As I listened to the news reports of a father and husband being charged with murder, my blood began to boil.  This poor bloke was confronted at 3am by some arsehole in his house.  Allegedly, in the daughters bedroom.

Now, everyone I know, in particular a parent faced with some prick in their home and in their children's room at 3am would also be facing murder charges.  This man was simply defending his children, his family and his home from some wanker WHO DID NOT BELONG THERE.

THIS PIECE OF HUMAN FILTH HAD BROKEN IN, HE WAS NOT INVITED AND HE DESERVED WHAT HE GOT. 

End of Story as far as I and 99.9% of the Australian population are concerned.  Now an innocent man is facing a murder charge.  WHAT THE HELL WAS HE SUPPOSED TO DO? Was he to yell trick or treat to the man?  Maybe, he should of offered him a coffee and a biscuit then chatted for a while about his apparent wayward journey.

What a load of shit our  legal system is.  Built around the absurd bleeding heart brigade that are more concerned with criminals rights than the rights of the victims.  The moment anyone chooses (yes folks it is a choice) to break the law then pretty much all bets are off.  If you choose to break into someone else's home then you suffer the consequences.  Your rights are revoked.

Enough of this pussy footing around and being nice to criminals.  They deserve the basic essentials and that is that.

That's my opinion.

TAKING OF NUDE SELFIES

I am not sure about you, but I am getting sick to death of celebrities who simply have no personal morals and carry on with their lives as if everyone is interested in their pathetic behaviour.  

The recent indescretion of high profile Collingwood FC players and representatives of the AFL not to mention role models for young fans of football and the Collingwood FC is quite alarming.  Having been on the receiving end of a partner who cheated, I really feel for the respective partners of these two morons.  They must be feeling hurt, heart broken, betrayed, angry and sad.

They would be asking themselves is this the only indiscretion their men have made.  What about the stuff they have done but as yet haven't been caught?  The taking of nude selfies and then sending them to other women is a form of cheating in my view.  Cheating does not confine itself to just having sex with someone else although many people assume this.

For the people who feel the need to cheat on their partners, I ask this: How would you feel if the roles were reversed?  I am sure you would not like the feeling either.  Trust you have is wiped off in the blink of an eye and in many cases, like mine virtually irretrievable.

As for the Collingwood FC and Eddie McGuire saying that it has nothing to do with them, shame of you.  These two high profile players of the club should be penalised and harshly too.  These two idiots are not 15 and this is not high school.  It is a professional club in a professional sport and these two fools are in their mid to late 20's.  They are quite simply old enough to know better.

Hopefully, the AFL makes an example of these two by throwing the book at them.

Lastly, I hope there is support for the partners of these two knobs because out of this they are the ONLY victims in this.  They would be feeling devastated that their partners did this with other women.  I hope the AFL, Players Association and the Collingwood FC work through this awful ordeal with their partners.

If you feel compelled to cheat on your partner for whatever reason, be honest with them.  Have the guts to be upfront with them and say "I can't do this anymore".  Will still hurt, but nowhere as much as it does when they find out you have cheated on them.

That's my opinion!
