Corrupt cops on verge of sack

DOZENS of corrupt Victorian police faced dismissal and criminal proceedings, the Office of Police Integrity (OPI) has confirmed.
The OPI has told Victoria Police Chief Commissioner Christine Nixon it has evidence against officers involved with serious crimes including drug dealing, stealing and associating with criminals, News Limited newspapers reported today.
The OPI would recommend action within six months against another batch of police it has compiled further evidence on, the report said.
Ms Nixon said she enjoyed a close relationship with the OPI and would follow up on its latest recommendations that she take disciplinary action against dozens of police the OPI had investigated.
OPI director George Brouwer yesterday rejected claims from former Royal Commission chief Donald Stewart that Victoria's police force was riddled with “deep-seated and continuing corruption”.
We wouldn't have so much corruption if laws were fair, for example if pot was legal especially for those with illness then there wouldn't be the markets for the police to be corrupted in!

Drug Law Hypocrasy
There has never been a recorded case of someone dying from marijuana anywhere in the world and it benefits people with illness such as cancer, MS, MD, Glucoma, Arthritis and hundreds of other illnesses, yet alcohol shows no where near the same benefits but kills hundreds of Australians each year.
Hypocrits our law makers!

ALCOHOL kills one indigenous Australian every 38 hours, landmark research has found.
The average age of those dying from alcohol-attributable causes - mostly suicide for men, or alcoholic liver cirrhosis for women - is about 35 years.
National Drug Research Institute (NDRI) Indigenous Australian Research team leader Dennis Gray said these were conservative estimates from a first-of-its-kind study of the problem which showed alcohol killed 1145 indigenous Australians between 2000 and 2004.

Drug laws discriminate against the poor and increase profits of organised crime
I've stated many times that the only benefit banning drugs like marijuana have is to increase the profits of organised crime and pharmacutical companies are the biggest drug dealers who are protected from the laws making $billions by pushing things like morphine and valium over something that is safe and can be grown for free (if the government can't make a profit they ban something beneficial)
But worse is how these laws are used to discriminate! Yep it's only those that the authorities don't like (no other reason) that are busted!
Look at Bill Clinton! He should have been prosecuted for admitting using illegal drugs and had his house confiscated and other assessts removed or blocked as he not only used pot but admitted to it! Then we have George Bush who doesn't deny using illegal drugs which is an admission.
But now we have more people running in politics that admit to using illegal drugs! How can they be so hypocritical?
Obama owns up to cannabis, cocaine use as teen

* Obama pledges new generation of US leadership
WASHINGTON - Bill Clinton famously admitted to having smoked marijuana but denied having ever inhaled.
"When I was in England, I experimented with marijuana a time or two, and I didn't like it," he said. "I didn't inhale and never tried it again."
His successor, George Bush, while acknowledging a near-alcoholic past, refused to say whether he had ever taken illegal drugs. In 1999, he said: "I've told the people of this country that, over 20 years ago, I made some mistakes when I was younger. I've learnt from those mistakes."
But a generation later there seems to be less bashfulness about the topic and controlling the message appears to be the key.
Barack Obama, the Democratic senator who has formally announced his bid to become America's first black president, long ago admitted taking both cannabis and cocaine while he was a teenager.
In a 1995 memoir, Dreams From My Father, he wrote: "Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it. Not smack [heroin] though."
Mr Obama has also stressed his activities were part of a youthful behaviour he has long left behind and which he does not condone
So it's acknowledged it is part of youthful behavior!!!! That makes it alright then does it while millions of youth are prosecuted for being youthful!
And then you take medical conditions into account and someone can't use something like marijuana for pain management and all the other medical benefits to help with quality of life but a president of the United States can use marijuana for youthful behaviour.
Proves what I'm saying hey the pharmacutical companies control drug law to increase their profits at the expense of our youth and ill, injured and sick!

Recyled Water
This is the biggest crap issue I have read about in recent times.
For governments to claim recycled water is safe, reminds me of 20 years ago and chemical sales people would claim you can drink their toxic poisons, in fact some of the sales reps actually did drink a poison in front of workers and claim it was safe.
Likely they died early in life!
And to have polititians repeating this sort of sick behaviour by drinking recycled water and claiming it's safe is absolutely disgusting!
For one sure when a recycle plant is new it may produce safe drinking water but the problem lies further down the track when older plants don't work so efficiently and if your in safety you will understand that when equipment becomes used it does not work as efficiently as when it was new!
With the older plants and cost cutting there will be toxic spills into our drinking supplies this is 100% certain.
I can say it's certain becuase we can't even get the Safety Institute of Australia to ensure that members are qualified and competent.
And if we can't get our safety leaders to get their skills to a minimum level there is no hope of getting systems in place in these recycle plants that won't fail!
So poluting our water supplies with recycled water only benefits those making money our of water to the detriment of those using or drinking water. And then surveys are claiming 78% acceptance by Australians for recycled drinking water.
A great big lie by governments to push their agenda of selling off our water supplies as there is no way people would support toxic drinking water.

Abusive Women in our workplaces or maybe it's the homosexuals
Workers for Queensland rail have been warned not to take men's magazines into the workplace. Magazines such as FHM, Zoo Weekdly, People and Picture workers are warned they are risking their jobs if they brang that sort of magazine on site.
Now this is also an all male workplace which makes this ruling even more hypocritical!
Yet there are no mentions of banning Women's Weekly, Women's Day, Cosmopolitan or any of the many offensive and discriminatory magazines women read!
Worse there is not one mention of banning homosexual magazines which are offensive in the extreme!
This is an attack on the basic rights of freedom of speech! People should be allowed to read what they enjoy and for management to want to control what their workers read is a disgrace and belongs with Adolf Hitler and the Nazis.
So Queensland Rail is run by Nazi's it appears from this sort of ban. And what's next ban the bible, the Koran and just read Queensland Rail propaganda which is full of miss truths and uneducated opinions from the likes of the Safety Institute of Australia.

Water Crisis! Excuse to sell off more of Australia
The Federal Governments and all Governments for that matter in this country treat the people like idiots!
Currently the Federal government is moving towards taking control of our water resources with the support of the State Governments!
And the big question is why?
Simple, whenever the Federal Government takes control of an Australian entity it sells it off, even though the people own it, the government sells it off then claims they are good financial managers becuase of the billions made from the sales, eg telstra!
But to highlight how advanced the plans are to sell our water supplies, governments are preparing us for increases of 100% or more in our water prices.
Obvious that it is being prepared to gain the highest price from the biggest bidder.
Yet we see overseas the results of lack of water or probably more relevant the lack of money to purchase water. Yep selling our water off will make it more acceptable for our poor in this country to not be able to drink, shower or any other activity requiring water.
And then they die, and John Howard jumps up and down in joy becuase that is one less person he has to support becuase they died.
Sick Country we live in

Education sucks in Australia unless your rich
Sorry I haven't posted for a fair while. Been enjoying the kids company over the holidays and getting involved in voluntary activities to give back a little to the community so please forgive me.
One of the most important issues in the countries mental and economic health has to be education and with schools in queensland banning students from attending classes if their parents haven't been able to afford fees, we are seeing the result of not providing education to our poorest children with more and more drug use and people being put in jail.
Isnt it sad that our young kids cannot get an education in this country if their parents are struggling financially.
For example I get a DSP and my wife parenting payments which add up to just over $600 a week, take out $230 a week for rent (is going up shortly), we try and keep our food budget to just over $200 a week probably averages $230, then fuel to drop kids off and doctors appointments at around $80 a week, then there are medications at around whatever I can afford that is left, a specialist visit is around $160 a pop and massage and physio are well over $50 so I live in pain most of the time as it's obvious I cannot afford medical treatments.
Add rego, tyres, school fees and books and uniforms and you can see there is no way of affording to live in this country with any dignity or security, if you are unfortunate enough not to be able to work for whatever reason.
So for schools to ban kids from attending becuase their parents are poor is sooooo wrong and all it does is keep these kids in the cycle of poverty so the rich can become better off (yep the CEO's get more and more and company profits get greater and greater).
And then we see prisoners getting free education! Becuase they are poor a lot revert to crime and then get the education but if they had an education in the first place maybe we could stop a lot of them going to prison in the first place.
But that is the corrupt society we live in where the rich cry poor and the poor don't eat.
