Medical assessments in theory are a good idea, however most medical practitioners are not qualified to perform mental health checks. Currently under the law GP’s are already required by law to report unfit personnel to the police. How much pressure will they be placed under to disqualify people. Doctors proved under COVID that they were worth a damm.

Will the police be held under the same laws of operating firearms ? Or for that matter politicians.

Ask yourselves why our government are targeting law abiding citizens and to disarm legal owners of firearms.

Will GP’s be receiving any training to disqualify people. The last few GP’s I have seen have been totally incompetent in their every day practices. My current one cant even remember whats wrong with me, has biased views towards pain medication. My thoracic specialists couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me for over 6 months and it fell upon a kidney and heart specialist that worked it out in 3 hours. I currently have enough data to start 20 law suits against my current hospital, all of which will fall upon deaf ears and the lawyers will drag out the proceedings until I pass away. Laws are only there for the rich.

if the government is going to bring in mental health checks then have them performed by qualified psychiatrists and not GP’s that cant even write scripts for many mental health medications..

Silence equals surrender !

I first met David Freeman Smith through my blog after he replied to one of my posts. We first started conversing through email before swapping phone numbers.From then on we were talking most days,running ideas off one another for the blog. Dribbling shit as mates do. Both having been through illness we knew what to say and what not to in order to escape our shackles. Living outside the box. Each day above ground as they say.

Dave had been fighting bowel cancer for a long time before it traveled to his lungs. He called me in late January to inform me that it had traveled further to his brain with two large tumors forming. His prognosis wasn’t good.

Dave lived another 18 months longer than expected. In order to spend time with his family. I received word today from his wife that he had passed away on the 5th of March. We had never met in person, however Dave was a good friend to me and shall be missed dearly and contributed more to this blog than many will ever understand.

I didn’t have the heart to change the above eulogy. I had sent this to Dave the week he told me the news of the 45mm and 25mm tumors. We were both sick c&nts and both with an unusual sense of humour. I wanted him to know what he friendship had meant to me and that I would miss our conversations.. I wanted him to know I had faith in him fighting it and that two months were bull shit.

Most of the posts over the last year were directed to David. The traveling sections, the pearls of wisdom, sections on living in the moment. I had been sending Dave pictures of sunsets, probably after the second week our conversations started. Saying to spend more time doing the little things and not worry about the big ones. Enjoy life! Time was too precious and I knew he didn’t have time left ,but not how little.

There’s no better way of learning to live in the present or in the moment than watching sunsets. They are like a slow moving fire works display. Every moment changing, the colors intensifying. You never want to take your eyes away in case the whole kaleidoscope changes. Every moment different.

Ive never liked talking about myself and it took a long time before I told my friends about what exactly I had been through. I only started writing more about those experiences for Dave. It had been easier to write about them than to talk out loud about the pain. I wanted him to know he wasn’t alone and that fighting could be a purpose and a way of reminding you ,that you are still alive.

The influence of his friendship has made the blog what it is today. I would never have spoken about many of the subjects before his presence in my life.

Farewell Brother…

Retarded self defense laws in Victoria, what can I say.

What most Australians don’t know is that it is the same here. Try carrying a large amount of cash with reiepts of where it came from if your pulled over by the pigs.

If someone with a hearing impairment says speak up its now a hate crime.

Everyone else saw this coming, where the ministers and treasury have not. Their idea is to build 100,000 new homes and yet 700,000 imigrants come in every year. doesnt seem ministers can do basic maths.
