I read that this morning and it took me three tries to get through it. What is she actually trying to say? It seems like she's mocking, but then in the same breath she seems to be serious, and I genuinely can't figure out what she's trying to say.

I'm a big proponent of nuclear in most cases but I agree, we are simply not hungry enough to need it given the other natural options available. That said, not every country has that luxury.

Butt Wizard posted:People cut Barry Crump a bunch of slack for beating the poo poo out of his partner(s) when it first came out but I'm guessing it's also a big reason why you don't hear much about Barry Crump any more (that and being dead). Other than Margaret Mahy being convicted for drunk-driving, I'm drawing a blank too. eh i've said to people barry crump sums up new zealand perfectly, both the good and the bad on the one hand, he did some really cool poo poo and was a lot of things nz values - hardworking, independent, outdoorsy, etc on the other, here's a direct quote actually it's gonna be a series of quotes from crocodile country barry crump posted:I'm always having to pull her into gear over giving cheek like that. guy could spin a pretty good yarn and had clearly done a lot of living, but unfortunately he was also a wife beater

echinopsis posted:there's probably still a decent chunk that thinks minor domestic violence is a bit like menstruation, as in no one likes it, but it's life and just should be tolerated dont make a fuss There's no probably about it. This is more or less the exact reason why domestic violence can exist. It is a massive problem.

echinopsis posted:This brings in an interesting angle, to an extent. I was smacked as a child, and I don't really want to defend it as such but there is a chasm of difference between being smacked and being beaten. A large grey difficult to define chasm. I bet a lot of people see domestic violence the same way. Once were warriors style beatdowns are a definite no no but a slap? Not saying it's ok but it's very different and there is a lot of undiscussed psychological abuse going on which is significantly worse but doesn't get the same attention The way crump describes it is like disciplining a dog basically - give it a smack to keep it in line. I don't think he beat the poo poo out of her - or he doesn't want it to be seen that way - but I really don't think that was too far out of the ordinary back then. I do remember my stepmother telling me that her mother had said to count herself lucky if she finds a man who doesn't hit her.

sup nz just gonna forge a cop's signature and impersonate a police officer to get my hands on a gun also gonna pointlessly name the store i got the gun from also gonna make out like i was the one that got this loophole closed when apparently it had already been identified and dealt with internally #journalistlife would make me happy in a lot of ways if she wound up facing criminal charges for this

He's today announced that he's standing down as Police Association boss the one i posted from whaleoil discusses exactly that. i'd normally say it was typical bullshit but somehow i didn't doubt it for a second gently caress this whole thing just keeps getting dumber and dumber, if she'd come up with the idea and gone ahead and done it that's bad enough but the head of the police association telling someone to commit serious crimes, and them going along with it? just idiots all the way down Comrade Blyatlov fucked around with this message at 18:09 on Oct 21, 2015 |

lolquote:But Mr Woodhouse told TV3's Paul Henry programme he was not sure a loophole existed. "Putting aside the fact that someone has committed what I think is a pretty serious offence in order to make a point ... I'm not convinced there's some great loophole that has led to significant numbers of weapons being obtained illegally," he said. i think she is starting to realise she may have made a serious mistake

Ghostlight posted:My point is that those would all be places tied to your actual identity so it really seems like basically the worst someone using this method can do is commit fraud and then go on a shooting rampage before the paperwork gets to the police. There's plenty of other ways of illegally obtaining firearms that don't require you to wait for the mail or effectively reveal your identity to the police. almost like it was a bullshit piece designed to get ratings nawwwww

fong posted:ah, that seems to be the main point. They should've talked to the police first I guess? it just kind of creates an interesting point because regardless of what her intentions may have been, she did actually commit several crimes by doing this. her argument is clearly that it is in the interest of the public good, and up to you whether you accept that or not, but that does not change what she has done. which leaves me wondering how a judge would deal with this if it gets that far - seems like letting her off is making a nasty precedent to let the media do what they like. i wonder how this is going to pan out

Exclamation Marx posted:Yeah. No way of knowing whether Story inspired people to do it, or it was always happening but wasn't being reported I guess. I'm not going to outright say they were responsible for all the ones recently, but having someone saying 'yeah, a cheap pair of scissors, or sidecutters will get through it easily' and then actually showing it being done is something else. At this point I'm thinking locking these two idiots away is gonna be a public service. Next up on Story, it's time we took car manufacturers to task. Our expert shows us how with just a simple blade, any criminal could turn a normal car into an unstoppable deathtrap! We also tackle household chemical manufacturers by showing how just mixing a few common cleaners can create lethal poisonous gas. Anyone could use this as a murder weapon!
