Today is the anniversary of Democrat Governor Lilburn Boggs of Missouri, in 1838, signing the executive order 44 allowing the extermination of Mormons. The order was rescinded in 1976 by the 47th Governor of Missouri Christopher Bond, a GOP man. Boggs lived the rest of his years in fear of assassination. He had declared Mormons as fighting a war against Missouri. But Boggs order should be seen in modern terms as being disproportionate. In Boggs' defence, there was still slavery in the US and he would have felt urged to treat Mormons harshly. It isn't really a defence.
The end is nigh!
Only 37 days to go before the end of the world according to CSIRO chief scientist Professor Penny Sackett. Yet the chief difference between a skeptic and a warmest seems to be years of research. A skeptic is more knowledgeable. And warmest scientists seem to be well remunerated for their crackpot theories.
ABC and ALP Balance?
Well remunerated ABC former host complains about others doing what he does. Jonathon Holmes was a Media Watch host who would post questions late on a friday for a Monday broadcast. Quadrant had done similarly when it compiled its list of ABC stars remuneration packages. But Holmes was never appropriately balanced in his reporting, often being side tracked with having to hit and hurt Rupert Murdoch.

A new ABC chief would be better than the present one. All they need be is balanced.

Victoria's conservative government are in trouble according to polls. They have an effective leader and their policy is positive with a vision for the future, while the ALP have shown nothing worthwhile. But with media siding with ALP in almost all media, the choice for voters will be hard.

ALP know their policy was wrong and caused deaths, but they refuse to change, and obstruct legislation that saves lives and is more compassionate and fairer. ALP like to kill. For those living elsewhere, the issue is to do with migration by boat to Australia. Conservatives had ended the mass drownings and piratic exploitation of desperate economic migrants in 2002 with the Pacific Solution, allowing routine refugee checks on the migrants off shore of Australia. But the ALP claimed that was not compassionate. So the ALP took down the Pacific Solution in '08 and the result was many died and many tens of thousands were exploited by pirates, paying some $10k or $20k each to come to Australia. The abysmal policy of the ALP meant $billions were spent housing and caring for survivors whom were placed in camps for years at a time. The new conservative government has ended the expensive misery, but the ALP are desperately holding onto their murderous policy.
Fighting savages
Rehana died fighting for her people against terrorists. She was Muslim. She was a Kurd and part of a female unit of fighters. ISIL are disturbed by the female fighters, because their 72 virgins in heaven myth is nullified by being killed by a woman. Rehana had a righteous spirit, and she has many friends.

Some really disgusting, obstructive and insane people are bigoted non Muslims. But they aren't the terrorists killing, raping and torturing people.
