One of the most historically ignorant statements of our time is that “violence is never the answer. Rather, Robert Heinlein was correct: “Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor.”
My take is we’ve been disarmed and couldn’t defend ourselves and the police as usual, were no where. W e are not only disarmed physically but also mentally. Australians just run and hide now,. No one stands up for themselves. Yet the answer is ban something. not to actually have the police do their jobs and arrest someone. This shows that the police are not there to protect you. Why cant people get that into their heads.
I was awake at 5am in hospital and Andrew Hamilton came up on my feed. I kept meaning to watch this video. Being an OG crew fan.This led me on to watch several other vids from the same channel, The other main one was from Struthless.
These effected me enough to post the interviews up on my blog. What would be my three rules for life ? I had no idea !
Rule 1 : Embrace the journey.
I fought for a very long time not to do this. I was fit and healthy to a very high level and damaged my back which almost crippled me. Not long after I was told I was terminal and required a double lung transplant. This failed after two years and I spent the next 10 years on an oxygen hose. Before all my other injuries and a second transplant.
When I was on oxygen I had my dogs and cats for company and I began writing. i had learned to live in the moment. I had started to embrace what was happening to me and looked upon it as the only way I was ever going to learn anything about myself. Ive always learnt the hard way.
I read a book that said after we cross to the other side we choose the life we need to come back as to learn. I thought i was a dumbarse for picking this one but I stopped being angry all the time.
Rule 2 : Adaption. (Learn to adapt)
Everytime Ive had a new crisis in life Ive had to learn to adapt and learn new ways of doing things or I would have sat there and never grown or accepted what was happening to me. Ive seen to many people with injuries that have never accepted them and have never learnt how to work around them. Mental adaptivity is even a more powerful skill to learn than to physically adapt.
Rule 3 : Find a purpose.
I went from being very highly qualified in security to not walking. At the end of the ten years on oxygen i had spent four years in a wheel chair. Writing became my purpose at the time. I then built a bus to travel in where I became interested in bushcraft before starting this blog. I now do voluntary work gardening, which gets me up in the mornings. The last six months Ive become involved in political activism Id guess you’d call it. Its more trying to educate people as to how stupid politicians are. Id like to start a social media page for people to put up their stories on the NDIS to let others know what a shit show it is.
Without a purpose I see too many people give up on life and see no reason to get out of bed.
Ill go into more detail of these if anyone is ever interested.
When an ex-cop writes in to defend a corrupt cop. It shows that either that cop was corrupt aswell or if not then well he still is since what makes good cops corrupt is covering up for the bad ones.
I like the cheer a cop campaign there arent many good ones out there any more. Id like to see more of them published on youtube. I only see the ones beating disabled people.
Exposing machete bans before they spread. Stabbing people is already illegal. how about actually arresting offenders and not placing them back out on the streets on bail. Try getting the pigs and the courts to do their jobs.
