A reason to bring back the death penalty

2006-10-27T09:44:00.000+13:00

Well it may have taken around 125 days but at someone has finally been charged with the murder of the Kahui twins. It is crazy to think that this happened before I left to go to the USA, I thought by the time I returned someone would have been arrested, convicted and have begun their stint in jail for what can only be described as a heinous. Unfortunately, this was not the case and like many New Zealander’s I was getting pretty pissed off with the pussy footing around as the family shut up shop.

Anyway, after all the shit had hit the fan the twin’s father has been arrested. All I can say is I hope this guy gets everything he deserves. It is people, and I use the term very loosely, that make a great argument for bringing back the death penalty.

In fact, maybe we should resort to Roman times and make this guy, the asshole who shook the baby to death (see “Ever Wanted to be somewhere else…”) and every other low life coward into a pit to fight to the death and when the final guy is left standing let some tiger out on his ass. Would sure beat Celebrity Treasure Island…speaking of which throw that tosser Cocksy in the pit too.

Well that is another rant done……have a good weekend

Who is dumber? The working or the bludgers?

I think I may have to give up on listening/watching the news. For the last few days I have not managed to go through a bulletin without hearing something that is utterly ridiculous. First their was the murdered baby’s family refusing to co-operate with Police, then there was Helen Clarke and her cronies making a new law to cover their illegal activities and now there is the Panmure state house dilemma.

Long story short, the woman whose name was on the tenancy agreement recently passed away leaving her 19-year-old pregnant daughter, her daughter’s 10-month old baby, and her 13-year old niece in the house. As the lease holder was no longer alive Housing New Zealand, the house owners, stepped in and have told the daughter they will all have to move to a smaller 2 bedroom house as they need this larger home for someone who needs it. Now because this girl says the house has been in her family for 30-years she is refusing to leave and has staged a sit in.

Firstly, the house can not be in someone’s family if the family do not actually own it. Secondly, why is Housing New Zealand even giving this girl an opportunity? Kick her sorry ass out and get a more needy family in there. And thirdly, they need to do it now because the more press coverage she gets the more PC sympathizers will begin to side with her.

Housing New Zealand, another great government department.

Yet another proud NZ moment...

So after my rant yesterday I thought I would be able to come on here today and post something that is of a happier nature.....unfortunately on my way to work I heard some news on the radaio that pissed me off.

Helen Clark and her crew massively overspent, over $800,000, during their election campaign and like the others who were caught out were being forced to repay the money, our money. However, due to their strength in numbers mentality the givernment sat under urgency, something that they never do for an issue that doesn't directly effect their wallets, and passed a law that basically means they do not have to pay the money back.

What a fucking joke, what they are saying to the NZ public is that because of who they are they can steal whatever they want from us and if they get caught they will just pass a law allowing them to get away with it.

Top work Helen, top fucking work.

Ever wanted to be somewhere else…

I heard on the news last night another baby was found dead in a house and it looks as though it was shaken to death. In a similar nature to the Kahui twins murder, the family involved here has shut up shop and are refusing to speak to Police unless they can get a list of questions beforehand. WHAT THE FUCK!!! This is not a press conference they are getting ready for, it is a murder investigation and worse yet it is a murder investigation regarding their own child. It is ridiculous that the Police cannot take their case any further because everyone refuses to speak to them.

What sort of a society allows babies to be murdered by their own family members and then stands idly by whilst nothing is done about it.

In this case, and that of the Kahui twins, my solution is to lock the whole fucking family up until one of them finally grows a conscience and stands up for the slain.

Of course this will never happen as some PC fruit down in parliament will scream human rights injustice and spout some shit about how the family has suffered enough when in reality they are probably just cementing their argument of emotional instability so they can stay on the benefit for another 3 years.

Unfortunately for New Zealand, our politicians are too busy trying to defend the fact, and change the laws so they won’t have to defend the fact in future, that they all stole money for their election campaigns.

If there was ever a time to be embarrassed about this country, it is now.

Another weekend has been and gone and I am once again back at work…at least it is raining outside so it is not like being inside is the worst thing that could happen to me.

Quiet weekend, yet very expensive. Brought ourselves a new washing machine, dryer and fridge…very domesticated (and scary). Apart from that we watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on Saturday night.

The weekend’s excitement came on Sunday with the weekely poker night but this week for some reason it wasn’t as fun. Aces, which is a nickname my friends call me, was not firing on all cylinders and I ended up losing. On the flip side was Paul and Kat who cleaned up and may not be invited back next week.

Nothing else to report, just working on writing up the USA trip and beginning to work on video editing which is going to be a HUGE job.

Until next time,

Aces out

Friday the 13th, Mother Nature's April fools day and funnily enough something weird did happen to me today...I got a call from the one and only Private Pile. Turns out he has snuck he way back into New Zealand and is ready for some good old fashioned drinking.

What else has been happening this week............work has been the busiest it has been in a long time, I got my new external hard-drive so I can finally start editing down the hours and hours of USA video footage, I am still broke and am not going to see a cent when that he-woman Helen Clark pays back all her stolen dosh.

Well the news has just come on so I gotta shoot and do some work.

have a good weekend.

For some unknown reason the blog that was Shandy has departed this world wide web leaving me no where to post my random ramblings, embarrassing stories, pictures and thought provoking anecdotes.

Well last night I had a small bit of downtime and decided it was time to leave the Shandy grieving process behind and move forward with the creation of NorthShoreDon.

Although Shandy will forever be in all of our hearts we must remember the good times we all had and know that this is the right thing to do.

See you soon,
