Good old George

[mocking_loudly_died]

Just finished watching George give his speech to our parliment.

Some hippie "Green" party senators acted like childish **** wads and yelled abuse (though they were booted out, yay!) and I'm sure I spotted Mortimer on a grassy knoll.

Very exciting.

dont remember where you mare from.

Senators Brown and Nettle ordered to be removed for protesting
At this point in his speech, Mr Bush was interrupted by Australian Greens Senator Bob Brown, who was then ordered from the chamber by the Speaker. And when Senator Kerry Nettle was also ordered out for protesting, Mr Bush lifted his voice and said: "I love free speech."

Senator Brown managed to get back into the chamber and later shook Mr Bush's hand while Senator Nettle attempted to push some papers into Mr Bush's hands, which he refused to take. Leader of the House Tony Abbott moved for the Greens senators to be suspended.



GO Bob!!

lol he can be a legend sometimes...i think hes the only Australian politician that gets in there...hes been aressted a few times.

Bush needs to really know that there are A LOT of people that disagree with his policies...not just me


Mr Bush, here is why we opposed the Iraq war
October 23, 2003

Forty-one ALP federal parliamentarians have written an open letter to George Bush.

Dear President Bush,

The friendship between our countries is longstanding and deeply felt. We have a great deal in common, particularly our commitment to democracy. We retain our commitment to the ANZUS alliance.

That's why we feel it's important for you to understand why so many Australians opposed the war on Iraq.

Australians have a history of support for international efforts to stop the spread of weapons including weapons of mass destruction and landmines. Weapons inspectors should have been given the time they asked for to peacefully disarm Iraq. No evidence of a massive weapons building program nor capability has emerged since the war. Australia, the US and Britain went to war because of a "clear and present danger" which just did not exist.

The ALP firmly believes that international conflict should, wherever possible, be dealt with peacefully and through international co-operation under the auspices of the United Nations. When all attempts for a peaceful resolution have been exhausted, United Nations sanction is vital if force is to be used.

What is to prevent other countries from following the example of our attack on Iraq, and arguing the right to preventative self-defence? Why shouldn't North and South Korea attack each other using the template we developed in Iraq? Or India and Pakistan?

The precedent we have set is a very dangerous one, and there is every indication that the world will become less safe, not more, because of our actions. Certainly the British Joint Intelligence Committee believes the risk of terrorism will increase due to the war with Iraq.

Our own government knew of this increased risk before the war and refused to tell the Australian people.

Many Australians have continuing concerns about what will happen in Iraq now. Civil unrest continues. The death toll for Iraqis and US, UK and allied troops mounts. The bombing of the United Nations headquarters shocked the world, and it seems that instead of eradicating terrorism in Iraq the country has become a terrorist magnet.

The United States must now redouble its efforts to enlist the help of the world community to bring peace and rebuild Iraq, and then withdraw as soon as practicable. Iraqis must regain control of their destinies and their resources as soon as possible.

While many of us didn't support the war on Iraq, all Australians welcome the end of Saddam Hussein's brutal regime.

Our hope for Iraq is that there will be a strong, stable, democratic government which represents all the people of Iraq, including the ethnic and religious minorities.

Our hope is that the people of Iraq will have control over the rich resources of their country and be able to use those resources for their collective benefit. Our hope for the world is that this mistake will lead us to renew our commitment to the United Nations and its processes for promoting and maintaining global peace.

ever since JFK was assassinated, mortimer was dying to be another lone-gunman. that's how much he hates the US. :P

[Mortimer]

and if i was on the grassy knoll your dumbass president would be dead.

Australia.

I like old Morty. :D

Though I do disagree with him. ;)

[Deuterium]

and if i was on the grassy knoll your dumbass president would be dead.

Thanks for taking such a morale position. Assasination is certainly a democratic ideal. Making a statement like that, even on the Internet is not called for. As an American I could go to jail for saying that in public.

[96B]

and if i was on the grassy knoll your dumbass president would be dead.

Go for it if you would like to find out what it feels like to have your face turned into pudding compliments of the Secret Service...

That was totally uncalled for and you should be very careful about making such comments.

[usa320]

WOAH.

THATS ENOUGH

Mortimer you do understand that you can get ruffed up by the secret service for saying that right?

[usa320]

As a matter of fact, that broders on threatening to kill someone....

which is a punishable offense...

Most geek forum do not allow to discuss about pirated softwares and music because they fear of RIAA going after their ass. Threaten to assassinate US President is asking for trouble.

Do you think Australia government would protect a dumb**** like you after you made a threat to assassinate US's President? That's just bad bad international policy for Australia, all because of ONE stupid Aussie citizen rofl

[mocking_loudly_died]

Calm down you fairy puffs or I'll kill you all!

Nah, I’m to tired.....

Bloody hell some you guys have massive rods up your butt - reporting Mortimer would be a waste of peoples time.

Am I saying his comments are justified NO!....but you would have to be a simpleton to believe he was serious. :petting: <I love that emote

This is the internet not a bloody patriot parade.

Now I'm so mad I spilt my beer!

US Secret Service have to disagree with your opinion. They take this **** seriously after 9/11 and especially during this Iraq thing.

I've been around the internet long enough and saw quite a few people got their ass ban from forums all because they made threats to kill someone and this is "someone", not US President.

It's like yelling "fire" in the theater when you meant as a joke, right?

Edit: Did I mention I work for a US goverment agency? Nope, it's not military because military is my part time job for now. I'm not suppose to tell you what government agency i work for and let's keep it that way.

[mocking_loudly_died]

I see your point Jack.

But....how many times a day would some kids be threatening to blow up the president?...a gizilion (is that a real number?).

I know old Morty's not a kid, but I don't for one second think his going to pull out a sniper rifle and take pot shots at George.

I think any phone call to the authorities would be pretty silly and a waste of peoples time.

If you remember correctly I started the joke about Morty being on a grassy Knoll, he was responding in kind to my jest.

So everyone please direct your insults to me, not him.

I'm so damn noble!

[Mortimer]

jack...your a nut case....

and thanks mocky for not taking what i said out of context.

GOOD OLD GEORGE,

The point is that some things shouldn't be joked about. You wouldn't walk around Harlem and start cracking black jokes because you'll probably get severely beaten. I'm not saying don't make Dubya jokes, but it's probably not wise to make jokes that can and most likely will be perceived as threatening by the people who take their jobs as protectors deadly serious.

what the hell are you talking about? way to take everything out of context and out of proportion. a lame joke was made on a messageboard.
if you want to make a threat against my "president" (well, i have two prime ministers because i hold dual citizenship) on a messageboard, go ahead. i won't call the authorities. i won't call you names. hell, you can visit my countries and make the threats in person. the authorities may not appreciate your actions, but i could care less. frankly, i have more important things to worry about.
and i notice that you refuse to comment about threats made to other groups. as far as i know threats made against muslims, for example, could thereotically be prosecuted under hate-crime legislation. i'm not accusing you, mr. mehoff, of making such threats, but some on this board have and did you open your mouth then? no, you remained silent. your hypocrisy is appalling.

[Jack Mehoff]

Correct me on this but there is a thing call "hate crime". That mean you get more servere penalty if you commit violence against another group based on race, gender, religion, nationality,etc.

Also, there is a law call "stalking" or whatever. They will judge you guilty based on your intent and NOT your action

In another word, George Bush is a public figure and you don't make death threats to public figure, period. Go to www.google.com and find that out yourself.

So, did you say something about hypocrisy?

have i made any jokes about killing? hell, i'm one of the few individuals who has criticised others for celebrating the killing of other human eings.
i have not made any such comments, so you are an idiot and a wanker for suggesting i have.

in addition, some of your gung-ho colleagues have made threatening comments about muslims, hippies, etc. did you say anything? no. were you critical then? no.

did the rest of us who aren't knee-jerk patriotic reactionnaries rush to our phones to call the fbi? no, because we are mature individuals who can discern jest from genuine threats. you made an erroneous statement and i have your called bs, yet you dance around the issue and make false accusations.

[Mr Gently Benevolent]

TF160SOAR please read my post again, read it take it in and think about it, you read the bit about me having no real opinion and just trawling for thoughts what does that mean to you? Saddam was used as an example as a sitting head of state and from my other posts you will see that I am very much anti terrorist. Since when did solicting opinions become a challange.

So, did you say something about hypocrisy?

first of all, your post makes little sense. i mention hate crime legislation and you counter my post with the same info? i said issuing threats against others could be prosecuted as a hate-crime, so you either misunderstood my post or are supporting it.

yes it is illegal to make threats against a public figure, but it is also illegal to make threats against others as well, which, in the context of this message board, would apply to muslims, for example. correct me if i am wrong but you were silent when some on this messageboard have made threats towards muslims. why is this?

how am i being a hypocrite? i would not and never have threatened any public figure. but i'm also intelligent enough to discern jest from the genuine article. i am commenting on the fact that some of you have popped your load a little early by dragging the secret service into this. criticise the initial post, but to start threatening legal action seems rather immature.

huh? killing taliban? i am talking making threats towards muslims in general. some on this board have expressed views that could be construed as being hateful, thus potentially in violation of hate-crime legislation. bear in mind that i have been deliberately vague, because hate-crime legislation varies from one country to another. add the fact that this a messageboard.
but you're focusing on a few trees and missing the forest. when racist posts directed at muslims emerged, very few of the more conservative members said anything (i only remember trigger stepping up to the plate). some have routinely suggested so-called "hippies" should get a good beating for expressing their views (one of many examples: the kid wearing the anti-bush shirt), but did you say anything? notice how the more liberal members did not threaten to contact the aclu or the authorities? we know that this is a messageboard, and that people tend to shoot their mouths off (including yours truly). mortimer's post was never to be taken seriously for obvious reasons. moreover, he merely delivered the punchline to a joke started by another member. the latter was fully aware that mortimer's comment was made in jest. however, some members have jumped all over this incident and made statements about contacting the secret service. some, including myself, have suggested that the rhetoric may be taken down a few notches. this is the extent of our intervention.

[Jack Mehoff]

How amazing!!! Mortimer still doesn't know how to keep his mouth right after the threat. Indeed, he was joking by his sarcastic and careless comments :roll: My feeling tells me that he wasn't joking just by reading all his previous posts in the past.

www.militaryphotos.net locates in United States I believe. But Mortimer's dumbass comment probably get this site shut down if any government official read this.

Pinkeye,

Don't blame me dude. Go back and read all Mortimer posts. He challenged me and Deuterium to report this to US Secret Service. If you are not so bias you would have realize that. It's his dumbass made the threat and made challenge. Do you still think that's a joke?

[usa320]

I think it is in the best interest of the site for mortimer to be banned and this thread locked.

There is a huge difference between killing people like Saddam Hussein or Bin Laden and Killing people like Bush, Putin or Chiraq...

Elected officials are elected by the people for the people.

Saddam and his chronies came to power through murder.

Saddam and his chronies came to power through murder.

And by the money and power of the USA, lets not forget Saddam was quite handy during the war against Iran :roll:

Yes Kriz, as has been hammered home time and time again ad nauseum, the U.S. supported Iraq in the 80's. Do you have anything relevant to add?

[Deuterium]

.Pinkeye, If others have made similar threats against ANYONE and I have read it and not condemned their actions then I AM WRONG. I don't live in a glass house. I'm not aware of this happening but if it did you are entirely correct, I should have condemned them also. I certainly don't agree with the majority of things you, Mortimer, and Spier write about. I don't know any of you personally so I can't really say why you guys are so confused in your thinking. But I am a man of principles and I thank you for allowing me to publicly state the above. I will always vigorously debate your inaccurate conclusions to current and past events. I might even make a simple joke but I won't make a personal attack nor EVER JOKE ABOUT KILLING people. This you have my word on

Mort said some pretty stupid crap and the big pile of it in this string stinks up the post pretty good... but I think George and our CIA can talk care of themselves. I'm sure that a REMF like mort has better flames to chase instead of doing something challenging like assasination. One good point though.. whether Militaryphotos is base in the US or not .. talk like that is gonna get the site a lot of attention in a negative way. (I'm sure it isn't the first time.) If you want something really pro American soldier to piss of Mort and the like.. check out www.ehowa.com. Ernie loves us grunts.

Nothing like living in the land of the free eh Deuterium? :-)

cheers

front - actually it is called "terroristic threatening" it has been a law for many, many years...even threatening to kill anyone can fall into this catagory as it may cause the victim a lose of his rights as he now potentially will live in fear..

SO YES in fact there is "Nothing like living in the land of freedom"...and that includes free from threats of bodily harm...

I will bet money the country in which you live has similiar statues...as does Canada, England, and Aus.

Although the Mortimer's comments are out of line, reflect his typical willingness to post anything to flame others, his absurd sense of logic and is in violation according the rules of the Forum...
....I doubt that anything should happen...

Stoli - this isn't aimed at you personally mate, but...

When will you bloody yanks learn that the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is not just England.

Ahhh, feel better for that. ;)

i'm not a REMF..... :fork:

you dumbasses have just hyped this up for no reason....there is absolutly no way this site would get shut down for that comment, anyone who thinks so is just getting on Jack's and Det's stupid band wagon.

now shut up about it i am getting sick of seeing my alias being mentioned so many times.

well sure his comments were taken out of context and probably shouldnt have been made. But i have heard of you guys threating "hippies" and "liberals" before and they certainly didnt whine and bitch and moan about it now did they? Did they call the cops? Did they email there local fbi office and inform them that they were being made fun of and threatened on a website? No they didnt. So maybe you guys should take a dose of your own medicine and shut up and sit on it....im sure your guys tax dollars can be better off spent somewere else like iraq or afghanistan instead of having your local fbi waste time and money on reading threw a forum.

p.s. jack quit trying to boost your ego by saying you work for the government

p.p.p.s. maybe everyone should learn to take a joke now and then p-)

Sorry we will not joke about killing heads of ANY state while I'm part of this forum.
