When did you hit the big Seven O, Dave? My brother celebrated that birthday last month and his wife organized a surprise party for him - just family really - he was well surprised.

Hope everyone has a good Sunday.

BREAKING NEWS

Another 'knifeman' has allegedly been busy on London Bridge (UK)
Armed police are in attendance

The Gold Channel News
has announced that a car has allegedly been involved
with people strewn across the road that crosses the bridge
All roads in the surrounding area have been closed

___

You read ^^^^^
just what I heard from the broadcast
which included statements from (2) unidentified witnesses
I had the Dab Radio on because Teddy was being upset by local fireworks
Send them HOME...
before we have some IDIOTS seeking-revenge
and targeting possibly innocent persons

Or perhaps
this is
just what our Government intended....

"Fox's amongst the Chickens"?

It is high time that we, THE PEOPLE
regained-control of this idiocy.....

While I agree that those that seek 'sanctuary' and 'protection' from despotic leadership (persecution) should receive all the assistance and protection the rest of the world can-provide, we are (in fact) deluding-ourselves / only deceiving ourselves to believe all the propaganda and hype ~that our governments UK and US _actually do
have, the best-interests of our peoples and countries at-heart

Why do they not (?) engage-in making people SAFE in their own countries instead of GIFTING AID (finance and material support)
that in-fact generally ONLY benefits 'the few' whom have power in them
ie: why ? transport them here, house them and nurse them, WHEN, they do not integrate, do not speak English nor, want-to ..
They isolate themselves in communities and ignore the customs and laws of the country in which they are resident
Moreover, our prisons are crammed-full of immigrant offenders
~at no small-cost to the country and with no recoverable recompense

I hate Politics and lying politicians too
They, are a drain on the public purse and stand shoulder to shoulder
to mislead and milk the man on the street and his family
Almost ALL politicians have their minds on their own institutions and commercial interests....
And yes, we are all 'born equal'...
but privilege, is not earned
~it is handed down / inherited / connived-at

Why do these 'people' resort-to such horrific acts of horror
without thought for their own lives ?
Is it from desperation, for-reason there is no other way to affect-change
Is prosperity denied them because resources (at-home) are being usurped and squandered by the few, whom, by force majeure
are-able to possess and squander those resources and their country's wealth upon themselves

Just look at Iraq, it is rich with oil-fields that the whole world is a potential-customer for (?) where ? has that wealth gone ?
Has it provided irrigation for it's desert-landscape and feed for animals
does it's people benefit at-all from trade with the world ?
Where does it's wealth go ??

The people that inhabited cities in Syria, have no cities remaining
that have been left-untouched by it's army, whom have been engaged in fighting "REBELS "of it's government.... aka: victims of genocide (?)

Yes, I remember Saddam Hussein and his so-called
"weapons of mass-destruction" there weren't any ?
and yet 'Allied Forces' murdered, so very many thousands
of innocent civilians ~the peoples of that land in their "FIGHT"
against what has been reported as being TERRORISTS and, which may simply have been
ordinary-folks, fighting back, in futility against oppression and genocide

How much more BS are we to receive and suck-up ?
Openness ? where is it ?
We step in more of it in every direction

We have a GENERAL ELECTION in-progress here

There is NO-CHOICE for the people ? ~save-for HOBSON'S CHOICE

These are the candidates.... all will fulfil the needs of those
that PAID for them, to do their bidding... It matters not what they call themselves in terms of PARTY
the very same 'processes' will continue, to be imposed upon our peoples

The infrastructure / Civil Services, they run automatically and is varied
only according-to instruction from above (policy-changes)

It could just as easily be run by concensus
ie: concensus ~of the people (Majority Rules)
and why isn't it so, in this DEMOCRACY ?

It is all BS

How do Kings become Kings ?
God's will ?
or, gangs of thugs, wiping-out all-opposition
Rule by the SWORD ?

The establishment is corrupt and will stop at nothing
and I do mean 'NOTHING' is too-dirty for them to conceive of doing
in maintenance of THEIR rule

Even newspapers have-to employ people that have no idea of grammar and are unable to spell correctly... Whatever happened to proof-readers ? They do not need them because the majority of it's readership would either not-notice or would care even less

see next post¬

Jeremiah 5
New International Version (NIV)
Not One Is Upright

1 “Go up and down the streets of Jerusalem*,
look around and consider,
search through her squares....
If you can find but one person
who deals honestly and seeks the truth,
I will forgive this city.
2 Although they say, ‘As surely as the Lord lives,’
still they are swearing falsely.”
3 Lord, do not your eyes look for truth?
You struck them, but they felt no pain;
you crushed them, but they refused correction.
They made their faces harder than stone
and refused to repent.
4 I thought, “These are only the poor;
they are foolish,
for they do not know the way of the Lord,
the requirements of their God.
5 So I will go to the leaders
and speak to them;
surely they know the way of the Lord,
the requirements of their God.”
But with one accord they too had broken off the yoke
and torn off the bonds.
6 Therefore a lion from the forest will attack them,
a wolf from the desert will ravage them,
a leopard will lie in wait near their towns
to tear to pieces any who venture out,
for their rebellion is great
and their backslidings many.
7 “Why should I forgive you?
Your children have forsaken me
and sworn by gods that are not gods.
I supplied all their needs,
yet they committed adultery
and thronged to the houses of prostitutes.
8 They are well-fed, lusty stallions,
each neighing for another man’s wife.
9 Should I not punish them for this?”
declares the Lord.
“Should I not avenge myself
on such a nation as this?
10 “Go through her vineyards and ravage them,
but do not destroy them completely.
Strip off her branches,
for these people do not belong to the Lord.
11 The people of Israel and the people of Judah
have been utterly unfaithful to me,”
declares the Lord.
12 They have lied about the Lord;
they said, “He will do nothing!
No harm will come to us;
we will never see sword or famine.
13 The prophets are but wind
and the word is not in them;
so let what they say be done to them.”
14 Therefore this is what the Lord God Almighty says:
“Because the people have spoken these words,
I will make my words in your mouth a fire
and these people the wood it consumes.
15 People of Israel,” declares the Lord,
“I am bringing a distant nation against you—
an ancient and enduring nation,
a people whose language you do not know,
whose speech you do not understand.
16 Their quivers are like an open grave;
all of them are mighty warriors.
17 They will devour your harvests and food,
devour your sons and daughters;
they will devour your flocks and herds,
devour your vines and fig trees.
With the sword they will destroy
the fortified cities in which you trust.
18 “Yet even in those days,” declares the Lord, “I will not destroy you completely.
19 And when the people ask,
‘Why has the Lord our God done all this to us?’ you will tell them,
‘As you have forsaken me and served foreign gods in your own land,
so now you will serve foreigners in a land not your own.’
20 “Announce this to the descendants of Jacob
and proclaim it in Judah:
21 Hear this, you foolish and senseless people,
who have eyes but do not see,
who have ears but do not hear:
22 Should you not fear me?” declares the Lord.
“Should you not tremble in my presence?
I made the sand a boundary for the sea,
an everlasting barrier it cannot cross.
The waves may roll, but they cannot prevail;
they may roar, but they cannot cross it.
23 But these people have stubborn and rebellious hearts;
they have turned aside and gone away.
24 They do not say to themselves,
‘Let us fear the Lord our God,
who gives autumn and spring rains in season,
who assures us of the regular weeks of harvest.’
25 Your wrongdoings have kept these away;
your sins have deprived you of good.
26 “Among my people are the wicked
who lie in wait like men who snare birds
and like those who set traps to catch people.
27 Like cages full of birds,
their houses are full of deceit;
they have become rich and powerful
28 and have grown fat and sleek.
Their evil deeds have no limit;
they do not seek justice.
They do not promote the case of the fatherless;
they do not defend the just cause of the poor.
29 Should I not punish them for this?”
declares the Lord.
“Should I not avenge myself
on such a nation as this?
30 “A horrible and shocking thing has happened in the land:
31 The prophets prophesy lies,
the priests rule by their own authority,
and my people love it this way.
But what will you do in the end?

Common-Sense in-articulation


WATCH | Former SAS serviceman, Phil Campion talking sense once again. When will our politicians listen?

"These people killed last night, they probably sat there last week thinking to themselves, 'How terrible that was in Manchester' and now it's happened to them, and nothing has been done in the mean time!

"If we keep having these conversations and I keep appearing on your show and saying, 'Let's do something' and nothing ever happens, we're just going to lose more and more people.....

"I'd like to see the borders controlled properly. I would like to see people who are suspected or have any links to these organisations taken off the streets immediately and either locked up or sent back to where they came from. We need to do it now!"

“No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it”
1 Corinthians 10:13

I queried this and received the following:-

If you're getting

error,
it's because Chrome is trying to protect you from a site that's not secure
to make sure your information on the page doesn't fall into the wrong hands.
If this happens, in the address bar, you'll see the Insecure content icon

To post here, I have temporarily ALLOWED those "unsafe-scripts"
Just so you know (also) of my experience

My version 'Chrome' is protected by software ~from my Bank
whom list all unsafe sites.... and WARN me of 'sites' that are known threats
and also, those pages, that are simply 'links to dangerous sites'
I will make 2 further attempts to visit in Secure Mode this week.
However, if I am unable to browse and post here securely ...
I won't visit anymore
In which case God-bless, Goodbye and Good Luck

I had problems this morning also, but I didn't get any error messages from my browser or security software. I just thought it might be forum database problems. It seems to be better now.

Thank you Tom Bro'....
I noticed that my secure connection, had been re-established
immediately, I came by (just now)

Maybe it is an attended-thingy, ie: 'they must be on a 'break' :thumbsup:

Last night, all I could see was a red flag....

Override alert
Although not recommended, you can choose to override the alert for the page by clicking Load unsafe script. Chrome will refresh the page and load its content, including any insecure content. To show that the page isn't fully secure, the address bar at the top will show https crossed-out in red:
73nf8Qg7lg5283B-r167ZrXu8Qn6DRyHX6-KTs4opi00K--KuIR6dpdnxoRKzw=w45
.


The system, is telling-me
that it is presently blocking_
'Plugins, cookies from third parties and unsafe scripts'
which probably means (it /they are awake and at it)
and, I will be denied ability to post this 'message'


This may also be a focussed-attack [ip addressed]
would be reason, that others arent, seeing-similar

Trusteer Rapport is protecting my Chrome
and also, sends 'reports, back home' for analysis

You'd think I was used-to crashed computers by now
but, it's just 'a proverbial pain in the ooojah'

I have, informed Support... I'll just have-to wait it out

your Bro'
