'So how'd you classify a human male Green so it can be hunted ?'

- As blood sucking vampires, sucking the life out of this country.

An inconvenient truth is that the Greens get more first preference votes than the Nationals. In fact overall they came third, behind the ALP and the Liberals - but ahead of everybody else.

Rather than whine about the Greens (for no specific reasons mentioned) maybe you should be cheering for the dodgy electoral system that keeps them from winning seats.

rache,

"Rather than whine about the Greens (for no specific reasons mentioned) maybe you should be cheering for the dodgy electoral system that keeps them from winning seats".

There are specific reasons in the OP; the Electoral system, rather than being dodgy, is designed to find out who the electors prefer, which it does and fortunately sufficient people do not prefer the Greens.

Primary votes, as such, don't really matter.

Issy, I had not read your link before this post, I opened it for the first time now, and as I expected it was some nonsense (only looked who it was from), from the Victorian chapter of the Yankee red necks the National Rifle Association of America (NRA), an organization that counts members of the Ku Klux Klan among its ranks!

Fortunate in Victoria the Australia chapter which goes under the pseudonym of the SSAA is irrelevant. Issy you said "Primary votes, as such, don't really matter", you better believe it. in Victoria the SSAA political arm, which I laughingly refer to as The Shooters and Hooters Party, were out polled four to one by the Sex Party, it shows Victorians prefer sex to guns, BTW, the Sex Party can almost count their votes on one hand.

Unfortunately there are disastrous consequences sometimes when the SSAA becomes involved. Here in NSW recently we had members of the SSAA St Marys Gun Club facilitate the obtaining of firearms by a mentally tortured father John Edwards, who then grievously went on to murdered his two children Jack and Jennifer.
I ask, who really is the invasive species. A Green who wants to share their love of nature, or a misfit at a gun club who facilitates in the murder of two innocent children

Reclassify it as a duckling and let other ducklings sort it out:

Guns don't kill duckling, ducklings kill ducklings
They're the biggest threat to your masculinity.

Hi Belly. I address this to you, I count you as a forum friend, we think alike on many issues. When you say "No fan of the greens". Labor and the Greens need to be united allies as never before, as we face a new powerful onslaught from the extremists of the right. The Greens need to be there to counter the fringe dwellers of the extreme right, the Horrorable Hanson and the Corny Banana types. If the Abbott clone Dutton wins today, as I expect he will. Labor will need to fight hard to win government, the right will use their considerable resources, not just within the parliament, but particularly through their vast media holding to attack and discredit Labor, and steer voters back to the conservative side. Wrongly, they will try and paint this Dud Dutton as some kind of new conservative messiah for the Australian people. If the other fool Morrison wins, its not going to be any easier for our side. There is no sure things in politics, and there is no lay down misere for Shorten and Labor. I must stress overconfidence can spell death for Labor, if we are not all very careful.
