Mick, frequently torn between cancelling a day and having this on a t-shirt.

Dirty glass please. The hygiene thing is a joke. You're going to be kissing the same people later in the evening.

I thought fêted but can’t think of anything better than aware.

I even went as far as writing a love song about England. Got the crabs bucket line from someone here as it happens. He’ll know who he is. Feel free to message me for your royalty payments but I wouldn’t get too excited.

Despite England’s faults, it’s the only place for an Englishman.

Back on guns, this should give anyone who knows about them a laugh. https://www.news.com.au/national/nsw-act/crime/police-gun-debate-erupts-amid-claims-pistols-only-good-for-decoration/news-story/116f6884c86f2c59c60e4618929fa1d1?utm_campaign=EditorialSB&utm_source=News.com.au&utm_medium=Facebook&utm_content=SocialBakers&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQKNjYyODU2ODM3OQABHhnN2HQxrDERjCfH2npWyXRIVIImg5nAk6UE3WNAZps4CcAvZaemB94v6ZOv_aem_SM69KuRfZ9RxtXKqtn1lfg Relax, everyone. Armed police will be here soon and you can be assured of their competence.

Well done!

What happened?

I don’t for the same reason I don’t break any number of other laws that I think are wrong. I don’t want to risk prison and come out to find they’ve sold my house. I also don’t know any black market gun dealers, or how to go about finding one. I don’t move in those circles. I’d be interested if you could look back through the more philosophical points I’ve put in the last couple of pages because all you’ve effectively said so far is, “Alreet, Rambo.” Have I lived the last twenty years tripping from one near-fatal experience to the next, lucky to escape with my sourdough loaf intact? No. I’ve had almost no bother at all. Could that change tomorrow? Yes. Will it? Probably not. I suspect I could go the rest of my life quietly avoiding dodgy situations. So I don’t need to carry? So nobody does if it’s so safe here? It’s not about me or anyone justifying why we should be able to do something. The natural law starting point is we can do something unless there’s a good reason not to. The problem is people (you in this instance) are currently wired to think, “Why?” rather than, “Why not?” The papers etc. All the headlines imply some kind of wrongdoing you should be angry about and someone you should be angry with. It’s a lot of programming to resist. Try a thought experiment where you’re ridiculously open minded about everything. You see something despicable. Start from the point of view that it’s their prerogative, their business etc. Then look for the victim of their actions. Does that victim deserve to not be wronged? A lot of the time you’ll arrive at the usual conclusion, like yeah, that scruff shouldn’t have thrown his McDonald’s bag out of the window. But some of the time you won’t find a victim and you’ll notice how you've been judgmental by default. Good example is speeding. You’re plodding along. Someone tears past in a properly fast car. “MANIAC! See how you like three points!” But why? They haven’t hurt anyone. Anyway. Ramble ramble ramble. There was something else I was going to say but it’s slipped my mind. I’ll get back under the van and it’ll come to me.

The wrong uns already are. They only need go to the kitchen for a knife. That's already a greater force multiplier than the majority of people carry. Good people are already outgunned. If someone put a kitchen knife against your kidney at a cashpoint, you'd pay him. I would anyway. We're not all as hard as Major Fifth. And why should anyone else's choice (or apathy) affect my rights? Remember. I'm championing the rights of individuals. I'm an individual. So are you. Are you really happy to be told like a child what you can't do when you damn well know it's wrong?

Hard to say. The heat picks up as it goes along normally. Maybe a tiny tang, or that could be the lime I squeezed in it.

I just left a pan of curry out and it started fermenting. Nothing clever.

You've devolved into shitey irrelevancies. No, I'm bloody obviously not a spokesman for the entire jewish people. What does that matter anyway? My opinion is that they should enjoy more freedom than they currently have. If they don't want it, they don't have to exercise it. And fcking obviously the Australian government isn't racing to yield control. Governments like control. I suspect you'd find a lot of those present on the day would agree with me btw. Jews respect resilience. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Masada And same to you as to mesterh. There's no active 'arming of everyday Australians.' You don't go and stand in line for a societygun. I'm advocating for liberty, which is the absence of constraint. Those who want to tool up, should not face constraint. Those who don't want to, don't have to.

You don't want to carry. Don't. I do want to carry. Who is anyone to say I shouldn't? Should I suspect their motives for saying I shouldn't/can't? I think some people should carry and some shouldn't but I also have the humility to accept I shouldn't be able to dictate who can/can't (otherwise you end up with things like the disarmed jews from the 1930s that I alluded to a few pages ago).

Fizzy curry tonight (including potatoes). It's been unusually warm in the kitchen. Refrigeration is bourgeois.

No no. Join in. Learn. Self ownership. If I own myself, I can do what I want with myself, like carry a pistol to a bbq at Bondi beach. But if I can't do that (without running the risk of prison etc), do I own myself? If I don't own me, who does own me?

Appreciated. https://arbtalk.co.uk/forums/topic/125722-the-state-of-the-union/#comment-1884321

Forget this "everyone" business. I'll pick a name at random from the Bondi dead. You then have to look their widow in the eye and say you're happy they were prevented from carrying. "Everyone" is not some abstract idea. It's a collection of individuals. When you say no to everyone, you say no to any individual. An individual who you don't own and don't deserve to have power over.

A longstanding member sells English Hardwood Charcoal (scrap willow). He doesn't remotely need to. He just loves the con.

None of you tyrants can bring me down anyway. I’m still riding the high I got from freeing off a twenty-year-old hydraulic line in a twat of a place on the steering rack earlier. Three extensions. A moment of brilliance. I’ll sign autographs in due course.

You decide for you. I'll decide for me.
