"Bob Brown cares about the environment."

Bob Brown cares about Bob Brown, power, world government, and turning Australia back to pre-industrial days. There is no person less deserving of 'respect' than Bob Brown.

IF our posts appeared in say the national news papers it is my view the green vote would rise two percent
We let our personal views take us in to an unrealistic world
I see the green as my parties enemy, no less than deal or no deal Palmer is to the Liberals
This game is called politics, brand rightly or wrongly, anyone as the greens have been here and know it is not going to be the view of many

What a blast from the past, here we are in the year 1919 (not a typo, I just don't want to shock the forums pair of Rip Van Winkles) and Hassy and Indy are, true to form, carrying on like the Joh (Bjelke-Petersen) and Russ (Hinze) show on another lame duck of a project that wont fly.... called Adani. Like Old Joh, Hassy seems to take offence at people protesting. According to Hassy in true Old Joh style, "what a cheek" they have "to come up here telling us what to do, & how to live". News boys, in the democratic society that we are privileged to live in, peaceful protest is a right and not something members of the hard right like yourselves should be bellyaching about.

What is disgusting to me was the actions of an Adani supporter in using a horse, in true Captain De Groot style, to run down a defenceless 62 year old woman protester, shocking! I don't see the forums 'Usual Suspects' baying for his blood as they would be if this renegade Wild Bill Hickok was on the other side of the issue.

As for the approval of Adani given by the Minister Melissa Price during the final death throes of the pathetic Morrison government, that will need to be reviewed by the incoming Labor Government as to what unethical pressure was applied by the bully boys of the LNP to force the Minister to grant approval of sorts, as she was busy packing up her ministerial office which is to be seen no more by the dear girl.

Aidan,
Obviously you don't realise that I was talking about people who think with common sense !

Paul, you sad, sad example of whatever it is you represent.
You wonder why I call people by their descriptive names, now if I were to call you a moron, it would be for a reason and not for personal gain.
You are the one with emotional issues who unjustifiably and without provocation, have come 'riding' back into OLO on your high horse with your traditional brand of bull.
If you would be so kind as to check out Jayb's comments on page 5, you will find you have once more reacted emotionally and not pragmatically.
Had you engaged your brain before your mouth, you would see that, right or wrong, there is Jayb's comment which clearly demonstrates how fools operate, and as I have pointed out previously, age is no barrier to stupidity, I believe you can better comment on that fact.
Karma is a wonderful thing.
I had felt sorry for this maggot, but if what Jayb says is correct, I am now pleased and therefore find that she deserves what she got more so because it was self inflicted.
I now shift my concern to the horse, and hope it did not suffer because of the gutless and vial act of cowardice she set upon it.
So, in keeping on topic and how things are expected to play out on OLO, instead of showing us your 'bad' side, how about you practice a little of what you preach to me and others, and prove Jayb wrong, in doing so you can vindicate yourself and get yourself back in the 'cred' books.

From what I'm reading elsewhere Jayb's post is correct and the woman deliberately attacked the horseman with the gate, that it rebounded and hit her is her own fault; I wish her a speedy recovery and retention of the lesson.
