Hi guys.

The ongoing and ever more varied comments and different point of views asserted under my article: Barty's Embrace:

currently with a whopping 99 contibutions is highly relevant to your discussion, so please feel free to join in.

I was particularly moved last night watching the Matildas making their debut at the Tokyo Olympics against the Kiwis.

The whole team unfurled a huge Aborigine flag and lined up behind it before the match started.

The Kiwi girls joined in, in solidarity with Black Lives Matter, by doing the one knee on the ground protest salute while the photos were taken.

Also the English athletes did the kneeling in protest against the recent vilification of blacks following the English soccer loss to Italy in the European football final.

"The Kiwi girls joined in, in solidarity with Black Lives Matter, by doing the one knee on the ground protest salute while the photos were taken."

Oh....so when the went down on their knees it was in solidarity with people who have more melanin.

Wow...I took women on their knees to signify something completely different.

Dear mhaze,

Worried about you old cock. Reduced to a couple of sentences each post and dropping in sexist statements to get some attention.

That is bottom of the barrel ttbn territory.

Not sure you really want to go there.

Paul,

As usual you make assertions but never give a reference to back up your opinions.

Going back to the riots in the Zulu KZN South Africa.

The riots weren't triggered by a wealth disparity, rather the fact that the most corrupt South African leader ever who had looted every single state-owned organisation was jailed and happened to be Zulu. The rioters consisting largely of male youths and gangs targeted high-value shops ATMs and distribution centres in rich and poor areas stealing everything of value and wrecking everything else. The only shops surviving were owned by small businessmen were defended by the owners with firearms.

The result is that the women and children most needing support got little to nothing and with the shops and distribution centres smashed the townships are left with no food or prospects of any deliveries.

The hangover will leave the rich inconvenienced and the poor without food or jobs to pay for it.

Couple of sentences? Well it doesn't take to much to draw attention to your errors eg Holmes v Hopkins.

Sexist? The statement wasn't sexist. I'd have said the same had some sanctimonious virtue signaller pointed to men knelling.

Attention-seeking? Not seeking to get attention...just doing it for my own amusement, so to speak.

Now SR, don't worry about me...just concentrate on your maths lessons.
