CoronaVirus ==> Empty Shelves

I live in a forest, I have a garden there where I grow my food. My family and I live in a home with screen doors.
It’s been a bad autumn and 1 million mosquitoes have invaded my garden, 10 of them carry malaria which may kill me if I am bitten.
I need to go to the garden daily for food. It was OK for the last few months while I had Aeroguard protection, but I’ve run out.
Now every time I go out for food, I get bitten by one mosquito and a further 10 follow me back into to the house. We kill 9 but one always bites one of the family.
We are safe from them if we stay in the house, but we will die from starvation.

This is Donald Trump's dilemma.
Can you help him?

Which is why Trump hates the press so passionately - they see through him and keep exposing him. In the Guardian blog, for example, they constantly correct the same lies, exaggerations and understatements. I have read some of the same corrections countless times, and whilst that can become tedious at times, it is necessary to counteract the lies every time they are spoken, to avoid the Goebbels Effect.


According to the Washington Post (via the Examiner) he has lied 16,241 times since taking office. Gawd knows what the number would be up to now because he has been absolutely on fire in the last 3 months.

Greg, I don't think anybody can help Donald Trump but I'm not sure he needs it yet. It's his constituents who are in trouble.

Substitute Ross River or Dengue fever for malaria in your case and you're close to the money. Bushman is the best mozzie and sandfly repellent out there with 80% diethyl toluamide (DEET) in their ointment.

Can anyone imagine this scene in Australia? Simply because they are sick of the lockdown?

What's more, they are almost exclusively overweight middle-aged WHITE males with goatees. Not a woman in sight. I think there might be something in that for all of us.

At least one bloke has a pistol and another is toting an assault rifle! :o

I guess this is what they mean by a well regulated militia.

There are nine of them carrying assault rifles that I can count, but there are no doubt more that can't be seen.

Looks like Trump has a new business venture,
'Rent-A-Redneck'

A mate of mine who lives on the coast at Rockhampton has just had a bout of Dengue two weeks ago. He was talking to me with a dry cough and other symptoms that sounded a little like C19 so I urged him to consult a GP. Apparently the big giveaway to it being Dengue was a strong metallic taste in his mouth. One of the more attractive symptoms is....a blue Old Fella.....

He can't wear DEET, and the mozzies are in full cry 24 hours a day.

Make whatever you want from that Brett. Able-bodied white heterosexual males are unique in being the only group that have no lobby group standing up for them. The world seems to support quotas and lobby groups for:

Women
Genders/sexual preferences other than heterosexual (all 97 of them)
Disabled people
minority ethnic groups

Good to see a group that has nobody else lobbying for them standing up for themselves. :2tsup:

Humm . . . . cant let that one slide by . . . . . . given that able-bodied white heterosexual males (and are a world wide minority) already have 90+% of the power and wealth in the world, why do they need any more representation, perhaps what they need is less?

Bob, is that 90+% figure really able-bodied white heterosexual males or just males?

Take out the men who are either gay, disabled or minority race and what is the figure?

At first glance, I actually thought it was a bunch of blokes standing in front of Vic parliament house, so yeah I can imagine such a scene. And to be honest, I kind of expect it in Melbourne. You are correct though, they are all white. Thanks for noticing??????

That fact that disabled people are even included in this argument says it all for me and means I won't be responding any further to this.

Well I didn't make up the categories, disability is included in the Victorian Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commission.
Types of discrimination.

Crikey. A stark reminder of what I (don't) miss.

Next thing you know, Trolls will be looking for a support group.
