This is not a bout rape, paedophilia or murder. This is about locking human beings up far away from families with only an unknown insecure future to look forward too.

Today I want to share a story with you here that I find most disturbing. I have no way of checking the veracity except that it was brought to my attention by an elderly gentleman and Kaumatua of the utmost integrity and whose standing in the Maori community is above reproach. He has been a […]
The very word “secrecy” is repugnant in a free and open society; and we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies, to secret oaths and secret proceedings. We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment of pertinent facts far outweighed the dangers which are cited to justify […]
The propaganda as espoused in the Daily Mail reached fever pitch this weekend. The vote in the commons against another misbegotten criminal war is not stopping the war mongers trying to whip up war sentiments pushing the people towards it if they can’t push their alleged “representatives”. Here are some examples: While we are not […]
Even 9/11 denier Matt Taibbi (whose articles on the Banking scams I greatly admire) can’t get around the total bullshit the latest in Hollywood history rewrite is. Here is Steve Watson pointing out how the White house can’t get their bullshit story straight about what happened in Abbottabad. With gory details about how Osama bin […]
Update: thanks to an attentive reader I was notified that the original article has been pulled and he gave me a cached link which I have saved off line.

While I tried to have a couple of days of rest by avoiding people and staying somewhat intoxicated (not advisable by the way) earth shattering events happened.
