One Madman

That was all it took to turn Sydney into a madhouse. One man who should not of been out walking the streets after being charged on suspicion of murder. One man who should not have been free to enjoy the freedoms Australia offers all her people, after being charged for sexual assault. Yet this one man threw the city into chaos, much like Martin Bryant threw Tasmania and the rest of Australia into chaos while we watched his murderous rampage through peaceful Port Arthur. 

Please note that I do not say that this man is Muslim, and the reason for this is because he isn't. I'm not a Muslim, I know people who are, I have read the facts and know, because I'm not some stupid hater, that this man did not act for religious reasons and nor do true Muslims advocate this kind of outright hate. The man was a stupid fucker who decided he wanted to play God, just like Martin Bryant, just like any madman. 

I don't know the religion of my neighbours, nor do I care, it is their actions that speak to me. The way they say morning when I pass by, the way I see them treat their families, the way they get up every morning and put on their underwear one leg at a time, just like me. These are the things that speak to me, I do not stop to ask them if they are Christians or Muslims, cause I don't give a damn. They are all the same as I am, trying to keep their families safe and happy. Trying to make a living so they can retire and still be able to pass on a legacy. 

I am not a religious person, I know about different religions because I take the time to learn about them. There is not a religion in the world that can claim they have not taken part in some atrocity or other. Whether it was from 1000s of years ago or not, they cannot say it didn't happen. And why does it happen, because one madman decides he has the right to say how we should all live. Men have been doing it for years, invading countries and moving their own beliefs in while slaughtering those who don't bow down to them. We live in an age where we value our freedom, where we want to be able to walk down to the shops without the threat of someone who has decided today is the day they vent their hate. 

The atrocities are committed by the simple act of people believing the lies told to them by their leaders. Men who claim to have the ear of some God or other, men who cannot seriously be called men, and they will slaughter until they too are slaughtered. The ones who follow are the uneducated they are the ones who when told that that woman walking her children to school is committing a sin rape her, the ones who think that that man who attends a different church to them must be killed. They are the ones who believe that even a child who is not old enough to form their own opinions can be sacrificed. 

We are taught that God gave man free will (yes I have been to church and read the bible despite not being religious) and yet when that man commits a horrendous crime we don't then say it was free will, we turn to the mans religious beliefs first. If we can't find a reason there, it may be the colour of his skin, or maybe the family he was raised in. The fact is this man made the decision to do what he did, no one said to him "Hey go out and kill" without him not then saying "Okay". He could say "No" but with free will he has that choice. It is the man who makes that choice, not his religion. 

I've seen some posts about people praying for the safety of Muslims, sorry your post should read praying for the people of the world. Yes there might be backlash, yes you have the right to pray for whoever you want, but if you want to prevent backlash then here's a good place to start. Whatever your religion, whatever you believe in, stop praying for your own people and share your prayers with the world and all it's peoples.

Surprise surprise

Anyone who is surprised when a politician turns around and changes their mind after being voted in on the promise they have just broken, is a fucking moron in my opinion. 

Do you seriously think this fuckwit is going to be able to keep, or rather want to keep the promises they made? Seriously? They lie and lie continuously (I think they actually go through a special training course) and yet people still manage to be shocked and even go so far as to defend the lie. Wise up, there isn't a politician in the world, not even the universe, who hasn't lied to get what they want. It doesn't matter what party you vote for, they will lie to you. And what the hell do they care, they aren't the ones struggling to make ends meet, they aren't trying to live on air while they watch everything that they worked hard for get auctioned off so they can go and buy some groceries. They aren't the ones trying to keep a roof over their heads, or watching their children struggle along in their hand me downs. Fuck em all. 

I'm not sure about the rest of the world but in Australia, they get voted in, rip us off then get voted out again, only to live the happy life on a huge pension with benefits, and what do they have to do to get all this? Why, just tell the biggest lies they can get away with. I don't care if your telling me you'll put a halt to global warming, or give us a better public transport system, I don't fucking believe you. Unfortunately if I don't vote for one of these bastards I get fined, or if I do go and vote but leave the form blank, my vote of course doesn't get counted. I'm so tired of voting and then waiting for the broken promises to start. 

I know alot of bills have to get voted in, so if the majority says no then that's it, but please don't tell me your going to make my life better and promise to do so, when you know full well you can't unless the rest of the fuckers agree. And they won't!!! Just be honest enough to say you will try to get such and such a bill passed. At least that's honest. 

This is not directed at any particular party or person, they are all exactly the same. What's the alternative? Damned if I know LOL. I do think that they would be more honest if they weren't given all the benefits they get now, but we know they won't ever stop them, because it's the same bastards who get the benefits that vote on whether to lower or do away with them. And seriously if your in politics why would you vote against something that would mean you lose out. 

I don't want them to give me anything amazing, like a house or car, but for goodness sake, stop making my everyday life hard. I want the good free healthcare I was promised, I want to be able to retire and spend time with my family without having to beg or steal to eat and pay for my water, electricity, and heating. I don't want to pay through the damn nose for insurance cause some fucker says I'm old (only I'm allowed to say that LOL), and nor do I want to be told by some fucker who is going to retire on a huge pension that my pension is high enough I don't need more. 

Rant done LOL.
