Tue 8th April 2014:

The Modern Truth About Domestic Violence

Sat 5th April 2014:

I picked up a hitchhiker last week. He was accompanied by his smallish dog. I know what it’s like to have a dog. (S)he needs you, is a member of your human family and if you need to go somewhere there is often little choice but to take the dog. It was unusual for someone […]

Public Service Association (PSA) – a feminised shipwreck

Tue 1st April 2014:

The PSA – the Public Service Association/Te Pukenga Here Tikanga Mahi by its own assessment ‘is a powerful public voice and a key player in New Zealand Politics’, although its antics this week, might have many wondering whether its ship has been high-jacked, and left foundering on the rocks of feminist dogma.

Violence Towards Men, Homeless or Otherwise

Thu 27th March 2014:

Men have long been the most frequent victims of violence and the most severe violence. While feminists don slut clothes to march demanding safety from attack on the streets (and fair enough too), the truth is that a sole male out on the streets of our cities at night is more at risk of violent […]

Wed 26th March 2014:

Tannery finned 163K The tannery was evacuated and the unconscious men were eventually pulled from the building by co-workers, who found two breathing masks that enabled them to make it up to the mezzanine. I wonder if this was because of on-site training or whether these guys worked out some way to save their fellow […]

Interesting to see this on the front page of the Stuff website on a Sunday morning.

Wed 19th March 2014:

Story here: Female paedophile, 21, is jailed for two years after she had sex with an eight-year-old boy 50 times, starting when she was 16 . The lack of transparently between male and female sentences is not just a New Zealand problem. I suppose she would be out in say 9 months. That’s 5.47 days […]

The Kahui legacy

Thu 13th March 2014:

I haven’t followed this case in any detail so I am not suggesting that it is necessarily a good example but if anyone has been following it, they may like to comment on that aspect.
