  1. Cop tazers 87yo lady FOR WHAT? Cutting dandelions for a salad? LOCK THAT COP AWAY FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE! HE'S NOT FIT TO BE LET LOOSE IN PUBLIC!
    176
  2. @Jeff Joy: Really? You ask yourself that when next you find yourself on a gurney being wheeled from the ambulance into an emergency ward and one of these tired, overworked young doctors has been assigned to you and they've already been working 36 to 48 hours non-stop.
    55
  3. When I hear the name "Blücher", I immediately think of Cloris Leachman in the Mel Brooks movie, "Young Frankenstein", where each time her name "Frau Blücher" is spoken, the horses react with whinneying. Total crack-up, that movie, absolute comedy classic!
    54
  4. The Crown Casinos should be immediately shut down and James Packer jailed for incitement of criminal activities, such as money laudering.
    53
  5. This is what I wanted to say: America only sees other countries for what it can get out of them. America has ZERO interest in the people of those countries. America sees the Middle-East, including Afghanistan only of modest value for its oil. If the Middle-East had no oil, America would not be interested in them. America wants all the other countries of the world, including the so-called allies, and that includes us Australians, to be totally subservient to America's wants and needs with America paying no heed to our wants or needs. If we were to assert ourselves, stand up to Big Bully America, they'd drop us like a hot potato.
    34
  6. The cop should be immediately SACKED and LOSE ALL HIS PENSION ENTITLEMENTS! PLUS, Anna Wubbels should sue the offier PERSONALLY, AND the Utah Police for wrongful arrest. Harsh treatment of a civilian simply doing her job should be met with EVEN HARSHER penalty for the offending officer. I hold that cop in utter contempt for what he's done.
    34
  7. The cop should've gone to jail.... FOR LIFE - NO PAROLE!
    33
  8. When young doctors are burnt out before their career has any chance to develop and flourish, then the hospital management should be held criminally liable and sentences of not less than 40 years should be imposed, WITH NO PAROLE!
    28
  9. FOR CRYING OUT LOUD AMERICA - LISTEN TO THIS MAN!!! HE'S TELLING YOU THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH ABOUT TRUMP! Yes I typed this in all upper-case because I had to get you Americans to wake up to yourselves and get that overgrown TODDLER out of the White House before he flushes your nation completely down the toilet.
    28
  10. Scott Morrison, as PM of Australia, effectively ended Australia's involvement in Afghanistan yesterday (27/8/2021). There were still many Australian citizens remaining in Afghanistan, now left with no means of escaping from Afghanistan. Scott Morrison has DELIBERATELY THROWN THESE AUSSIES UNDER A BUS!
    27
  11. @Sonia Reynolds I suspect you are also a "bot", writing crap like that.
    26
  12. This could've been a great documentary series but was ruined by the inclusion of the music.
    26
  13. The control was lost by Gladys Berejiklian when she failed to lock down in June, 2021 when the limousine driver and his passenger(s) were detected as having the Covid Delta strain. There should've been a snap 7-day lock-down with the driver and his passengers immediately removed to Howard Springs. Had she done this, she would have spared us of close to three months of this lock-down that seems to drag on and on and on..........
    22
  14. To first sing "This Land Is Your Land" then to go into the nonsensical "God Bless America" is a gross insult to the first song's composer, Woody Guthrie, father of Arlo Guthrie. Woody Guthrie would be spinning in his grave at that pathetic performance of his song.
    22
  15. Doctors just starting in their careers may well be "allocated" to a certain hospital and not really have a "choice" as to which hospital they end up with. And working those hours will likely not be an "option" either. If the doctor protests, that doctor may find him/herself out of a job. The cards are stacked against the new, young doctor.
    18
  16. It's past time Donald Dump was "thrown under the bus"!
    18
  17. 21:21 Charles G. Dawes, aside from politics, is known for writing the song It's All In The Game with some refinement to the lyric by Carl Sigman in around 1951. The song had been recorded by Tommy Edwards(M-G-M K-11035, August, 1951), Cliff Richard(EMI-Columbia DB-7089, August, 1963) and The Four Tops(Motown M-1164, March, 1970). These are the most notable versions with the Four Tops version the best of them.
    18
  18. It should be a criminal offence, punishable by 40 years in prison WITH NO PAROLE for making these doctors work 8 hours without even so much as a meal break.
    15
  19. 21:00 This Matt Schlapp is blatantly Pro-Trump. Nothing he says can be taken seriously at all.
    14
  20. You keep telling yourself that, John Small. Perhaps if or when you find yourself lying on a hospital gurney because some rev-head hoon runs a red light at an intersection and hits your car side-on, you're going to be hoping the doctor who attends to your injuries has only just come on duty at that time, instead of being on his/her feet after nearly 2 days without a decent rest or meal break.
    14
  21. As an indication of how British people thought of her, when she died, her funeral cortege passed through the London streets, as it did so, all the people on the route turned their backs on the cortege. There were no bowed heads to be seen, from all reports. Thatcher was held, quite rightly, in UTTER CONTEMPT!
    14
  22. America was NEVER a proper democracy. The system of voting demonstrates that fact for a start. the BIGGEST mistake is giving citizenship to corporations, with ensuing rights and privileges. The corporations don't JUST own the courts, THEY OWN THE GOVERNMENT TOO! America is TOTALLY F**KED! And if my country, Australia follows the lead of those traitorous Republicans and Corporate Democrats(who are no better, but worse than Republicans), then we in Australia are headed down the shit-pan, right behind America.
    14
  23. Christine Holgate should be reinstated, not as CEO but as CHAIRPERSON of Australia Post while current Chairman, Lucio Di Bartolomeo should be sent flying out of Australia Post on the end of Miss Holgate's Size 6 shoe!(I don't think she wears boots). Miss Holgate is very much the egalitarian CEO, mixing and socialising with anyone in her employ, not just the upper echelon.
    13
  24. Presidents should be subject to impeachment if they are found to have acted outside the constitution(Trump certainly has, his days are numbered), Judges should likewise be impeachable but the judges who ruled against the gerrymandering in Pennsylvania deserve congratulations for their stand.
    13
  25. One thing America MUST have is COMPULSORY VOTING!
    12
  26. When I was a kid, living at Stockton(NSW, Australia, not Calif., USA, thank goodness!), We had a neighbour who took the odd trip to Japan. This is years ago before anyone ever knew anything about Covid. Our neighbour, we knew him as Mr. Jordan(sadly long deceased) was required pre-flight to be vaccinated against whatever disease he might've picked up while in Japan, or any underlying disease he might've had before travelling. It was the done thing for anyone travelling overseas! So WHY PANIC NOW?
    12
  27. The report is dated 1/8/1975 and is in colour as Australian TV had been in colour for five months to that date, so the heading should've read "Report calls for banning of ouija, tarot and horoscopes (1975)". That aside, it was extremely hypocritical of the Anglican church, or any church, for that matter, to call for the banning of tarot cards, Ouija boards or horoscopes which deal in one type of fantasy when christianity itself is nothing more than a fantasy.
    11
  28. Corporations ARE NOT PEOPLE! CORPORATIONS ARE CORPORATIONS! They may be run by people, but the people who run those corporations have no sense of shame, no sense of justice, of decency, of ANYTHING HUMANE. This is why corporations SHOULD NOT/MUST NOT be considered as CITIZENS of ANY/EVERY nation!
    11
  29. 4:38 Alan Jones, the "star" of 2GB, but the letters in that call-sign have come to mean "Gutter Broadcasting" DIRECTLY because of Jones!
    10
  30. NSW Health is an arm of the NSW State Government, so the blame that is quite rightly laid at the feet of NSW Health, must equally be laid at the feet of the State Government. And yes, the Border Force is also at fault, as is Peter Dutton. They ALL deserve the severest censure for their utter incompetence!
    10
  31. Note to John Barron: Just because your show is called "Planet America", please remember that you and Chas are AUSTRALIAN and that we Australians call the product that fuels our cars by its CORRECT name, PETROL!
    10
  32. 12:48 It is this Opinion-Based Reporting that should have Sky Network's licence revoked and the network ordered off the air immediately ! TV and Radio news bulletins are required to broadcast ONLY THE FACTS without ANY opinion or other spin whatsoever, as required by Broadcast Law and Codes Of Practice. Sky wantonly and blatantly VIOLATES these conditions of its licence.
    10
  33. I've already seen this edition, no need to view it again. But what it does illustrate is an utter weakness of regulatory bodies in Australia, in ALL INDUSTRIES to do the jobs they were intended to do.
    10
  34. If the story of the laptop containing incriminating evidence against Hunter Biden came from a Murdoch sleaze-rag, dismiss it. It's utter bunkum!
    10
  35. China: "not lying, but never telling the whole truth!" Yeah, right! Watch out for airborne porcine beasts! Australia is allowing foreign ownership of its media at Australia's peril. Australian media MUST BE 100% AUSTRALIAN-OWNED. The likes of Sen. M. Fifield and others who allowed foreign ownership of Australian media should be serving LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE in an Australian prison on the charge of HIGH TREASON!
    10
  36. In the absence of an INDEPENDENT ELECTORAL AUTHORITY in America, America's federal, state and local council elections should be overseen and managed by the CANADIAN GOVERNMENT!
    10
  37. Jag-Panthers, the "Jag" denotes them as Hunting tanks as the word Jag is the German verb, "to hunt".
    10
  38. Correction: God delivered nothing! The COURT SYSTEM delivered the justice! Credit where credit is PROPERLY due! THERE IS NO GOD!
    10
  39. Trump's parade harks back to Soviet Russia for its influence, and to modern-day China and North Korea for its influence. Trump has shown to the world that he despises democracy. He is an imbecilic, infantile TRAITOR!
    10
  40. This is what A O wrote an hour earlier from his/her own first-person experience:    "I quit medical school in my second last year because I know what I was in for. It's not just the hospital. It is a national and international system that runs this way. No money to fund twice as many doctors as we have now, that's why one doctor needs to do a work that by right two doctors should do."    There's your answer, Jeff Joy! CHOKE ON IT!
    9
  41. By his total contempt for the protocol of debates and not following the rules of debate, Trump LOST!
    9
  42. Typical religious stance: Medical practitioners save a life, Thank god! Lawyers and barristers bring proper justice(as is the case here), Thank god! Not a thought goes into actually giving credit where it's rightly due, no, instead all credit is aimed at a mythical "skydaddy".
    9
  43. Genk Uygur, a breath of fresh air in American political coverage. Likewise Ana Kasparian. Thank you both, you put ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox and CNN to shame.
    9
  44. Cameron Murray, up against Kamalini Lokuge, Omar Khorshid and Sally Scales, Murray came off looking like the two-year-old toddler in a room full of adults.
    8
  45.  Peter  The Australians halted the Japanese advance in the Battle of the Coral Sea. The Yanks hardly had anything to do with any of it. But like America, they wanted to take all the credit.
    8
  46. He totally wrecked our regional TV with that accursed "BRAIN FART", Regional TV Market Aggregation. Regional stations are losing, or have lost their local identities and are little more than translators for the capital city stations, with little or nothing for the regional viewer.
    8
  47. BRILLIANT! Should be MORE like this camp!
    8
  48. The teacher should sue the school board, and the cop! The cop should lose his job, his house, his car, his bank account, his kids should be expelled from their school. He should feel the hurt he inflicts on others by losing everything he has. This applies right up the line, to his colleagues, the chief of police, right up to the state governor. If the rights of a citizen of ANY country is violated, THERE SHOULD BE HELL TO PAY!
    8
  49. EXCUSE ME! Olivia Newton-John is NOT Australian! She might've gone to school here but her entire career has been based in England and America, right from her first record, "If Not For You" which was recorded and issued by PYE in England. She just pops back to Australia every now and then to keep up the pretence of being Aussie.
    8
  50. (Inter)Net Neutrality SHOULD, indeed MUST go to your SUPREME COURT! Ajit Pai should NOT be allowed to get away with this CRIME against your citizens. I speak from a distance as I'm an Australian and I'm seeing this from Australia.
    8
  51. Goes to show just what a pack of gutless cowards the A.C.M.A. truly are. Jones will break every rule in the book but the A.C.M.A. won't touch him.
    7
  52. 6:36 Rebel Wilson should've been paid $49 Million by Bauer Media, and the media group should've been DENIED the right to appeal the decision. Bauer's magazines, like New Idea are, like Murdoch's empire, Gutter-trawling sleaze-rags!
    7
  53. 5:50 Paul Fletcher trying to tell us that black is white, telling us that funding is on the increase when, in fact is was being slashed. He appeared on Q & A on Monday Night(29/6/2020) and was called out on his lie by Bill Shorten, who produced proof positive of the cuts to the ABC.
    7
  54. John Bolton has no credibility whatsoever.
    7
  55. If Gladys Berejiklian IS to be found corrupt, then resignation should NOT be an option for her. She should instead suffer the ignominy and humiliation of being SACKED! And that goes for ANY and EVERY politician at State or Federal Level.
    7
  56.  @rickylee1309  Trump has done NOTHING! He has boasted and bragged about affordable medical care since February, 2017 yet he has NOT delivered and its 31st October, 2020. Trump is THE WORST PRESIDENT AMERICA HAS EVER SEEN - BAR NONE!
    7
  57.  @knightrider6473  So you would rather have a criminal with the I.Q. and mental level, as well as the vocabulary of a three-year-old toddler running America? Be grateful that ADULTS are back in charge at the Whitehouse!
    7
  58. The female singer's(?) horrible screech is like fingers down a blackboard. It earns this documentary a Thumbs-Down from me.
    7
  59. Add it to the list of causes for impeachment!
    7
  60. Tyler Powell: Training for cops in America is in an inexcusable state of affairs. Cops are NOT taught to de-escalate a situation and resolve it safely. They're taught to draw and fire at the slightest provocation, even if the provocation is only imagined.
    7
  61. Trump has now gone too far, there's no coming back for him. For the sake of America and the rest of the world, THE IMPEACHMENT MUST HAPPEN NOW!
    7
  62. Thank you, RampagePhoenix, thank you indeed. This fellow really has Trump's number! Cenk Uygur has summed Donald Trump up so accurately, only a brother could know a person that well, but thankfully for Mr Uygur, he's not in any way related to Trump. If I were Trump's brother or father, I'd disown him.
    7
  63. BLATANT MYSOGENY! That's it, right there. BLATANT MYSOGENY! Can't say it any clearer. BLATANT MYSOGENY!
    7
  64. The young lady here is brave and courageous in calling out what has become THE MAJOR PROBLEM IN THE PUTRID STATES OF AMERICA..... 100% ROGUE COPS! She is the type of person who should be PRESIDENT! And also, Valedictorian Speeches SHOULD NOT BE CENSORED!
    7
  65. Jeannie Little was Australia's Phyllis Diller! And Mike Walsh put ALL other talk show hosts from Britain and America IN THE SHADE! Jeannie once said she couldn't sing but we sure found out that Jeannie was wildly underestimating her talents there! She COULD sing! And she did it brilliantly. And that she overcame a childhood stutter, inspiration for others in the same situation! R.I.P., Jeannie Little..... Daaaaaahhhhhhh-ling! I won't watch this again as I'd already seen this edition on free-to-air TV.
    6
  66. I've already answered you: "Doctors just starting in their careers may well be "allocated" to a certain hospital and not really have a "choice" as to which hospital they end up with". Now read the rest for yourself.
    6
  67. The residents of Mascot Towers should be given back 10 times what they paid to buy their units in this block by the building's owner himself and the insurance companies should be FORCED to pay out on the policies on pain of jail terms of not less than 30 years for their CEO's if they fail to comply.
    6
  68.  Saul Goodman  Voter suppression, voter disengranchisement, gerrymanders - all the dirty filthy tricks in the repugnant party arsenal!
    6
  69.  Saul Goodman  Biden won 2020 in spite of the filthy tricks of the Repugnant Party. Biden is THE LEGITIMATE 46th President of the USA!
    6
  70. The ex-cop, Derick Wiley should be jailed for LIFE with NO prospect of parole. ALL his property, his wife's property, his children's possessions, INCLUDING CLOTHING seized, and liquidated to pay compensation to Mr Jones. IF Wiley was already fired from the police, then just he, his wife and children suffer the loss, but if he was still a cop when he committed this crime, then the entire state's police should wear this punishment. The consequences of a cop's unjust actions against civilians must be EXTREMELY SEVERE and affect not only the offending cop, but his/her family and colleagues at his her own station and the rest of the state.
    6
  71. Australia had a traitor in its midst. Robert Gordon "Pig Iron Bob" Menzies was that traitor. Just before the war, there were ships in our major ports waiting to take a cargo of pig iron to Japan. The waterfront unions were concerned that this pig iron would come back to Australia in the form of bombs so they placed an embargo on the ships. They would be proved right in their fears. Menzies broke the embargo and the ships sailed. 1941 saw the pig iron returning to Australia in the bombs that fell on the town of Darwin and the City of Broome. That very same pig iron fell on Pearl Harbour, Hawaii. Then there was the "Brisbane Line", Menzies was overruled on this so it didn't go ahead, but his mere suggestion of it should've had him facing a firing squad for his treason. The plan was to cede the northern half of the Australian continent to the invading Japanese forces, would that they were successful. Thankfully for us, they weren't. But that was the traitorous nature of Menzies, a despicable, contemptible, foul loathsome TRAITOR!
    6
  72. Pell WAS guilty. He got away with his crime! I'm no fan of this sleazy far-right-wing Sky News gutter-trash television, but at least comments weren't turned off here.
    6
  73. There are comments here that are attacking Shannon Price, Gary Coleman's widow, but like me, they don't know the story behind his death. I'm not going to make any comment there. I saw on YouTube another interview with Gary Coleman that had him justifiably indignant. The interview was blatant character assassination. Gary had had enough and walked off the set. I was going to write something in Gary's support but found comments disabled for that video. They blocked the comments because they feared the deluge of pro-Gary Coleman comments they would've received.
    6
  74. 5:00 Cadbury Castle.... Made of chocolate and full of nuts! LOL
    6
  75.  @carolinebarnes6832  People grew to despise her during that last term as she showed herself to be arrogant and autocratic.
    6
  76. Laws were INDEED being broken by the way that nurse was being manhandled, and the fact that the patient was unconscious and not in a position to give consent to blood being taken FOR ANY REASON! Wheter the patient was a police officer or not. There is absolutely NO EXCUSE WHATSOEVER for the manner in which the nurse was treated. She should sue the Utah Police Force AND the Police officer involved.
    6
  77. But it's a matter of how many dollars! A lot of, if not all these young, new doctors are overworked and underpaid.
    5
  78. John Barron and Chas Liciardelo, PLEASE remember you are AUSTRALIANS! And Australians call their car fuel by its RIGHTFUL name, PETROL, not gasoline!
    5
  79. Adam Hills' "Last Leg" in Britain with Josh Widdicombe and Adam Brooker was a hoot and "Spicks & Specks" here in Australia with Myf Warhurst and Alan Brough, I'll look forward to its return on 18th April.
    5
  80.  Bon G  Similar to how it works in Australia! You register to vote when you turn 18. You are simply registered to vote in federal, state or local council elections but you are NOT obliged to vote for either party. Because of the geographic and population size of the USA, voting booths should operate 24 hours/7 days a week for 3 months to give every citizen their chance to vote. For those who cannot get to a voting booth because of severe weather or illness, postal ballots should be available. Voting processes shall be STANDARDISED across ALL 50 states! The Federal, State and Local Council elections to be controlled and monitored by a FULLY-INDEPENDANT STATUTORY AUTHORITY so that NEITHER party can interfere with the processes or disenfranchise ANY voter for ANY reason.
    5
  81. 21:00 America has ALWAYS been the Schoolyard Bully as a nation, pushing other countries around and stealing credit for other countries' achievements. This is, in a large part because America's Presidency is "executive" when it should be merely "ceremonial".
    5
  82. All voter fraud committed in America is committed by the Republican Party because the Republicans could never win by fair means.
    5
  83.  @henryjekyll1873  The only running Trump will be doing in 2024 will be around the exercise yard of a federal penitentury.
    5
  84. @Kathleen Brooks, just how much of an ignorant fool is it possible for you to be? Joe Biden won the 2020 election fairly in spite of the filthy rticks of the Repugnant Party.
    5
  85. Because of the geographical size of America, and its population, voting in America should be spread out over 3 months with polls open 24 hours, 7 days a week, but the voting proceedure needs to be overseen by Canadian officials because the American system is rotten-corrupt!
    5
  86.  @rickylee1309  Go back and hide under rour rock, you ignorant Trumpist fool! You are not intelligent enough to join in this discussion.
    5
  87. 4:00 Joe Biden's angry reply is understandable, he was reacting, most likely, to a Fox(Faux) News hack instead of a legitimate journalist.
    5
  88. The cop got exactly what he deserved! Whether the guy who shot him was acting criminally or not, is beside the point. If the shooting of the cop had happened ANYWHERE ELSE, other than America, my sympathy would automatically go to the downed officer, but because this IS America and ALL AMERICAN COPS ARE ROGUE, I will not waste any sympathy on this piece of shit!
    5
  89. 0:45 The Six-Day War was in 1967.
    5
  90. The supreme court in any nation shall have ONLY the role of adjudicating any matter BASED ON THE LAWS THAT HAVE BEEN LEGISLATED BY GOVERNMENT! The courts CANNOT AND MUST NOT overturn ANY law with which they do not agree. The power to enact or rescind law lies 100% with the GOVERNMENT!
    5
  91. Those chronic millionaires should be taxed at 99.999999999% of their ill-gotten wealth. Democracy should be STRENGTHENED! Voting rights should be GUARANTEED FOR ALL CITIZENS aged 18 and over! Or else America should FORFEIT ITS SOVEREIGNTY AND BECOME A TERRITORY GOVERNED BY CANADA, BUT WITH NO VOTING RIGHTS IN CANADA'S GOVERNMENT - EVER! They who wish to strip away basic rights, must themselves lose those very rights they seek to strip away from others.
    5
  92.  @georgevladimirovich7190  America and Britain are always quick to take credit for events in which they played no actual role, America moreso than Britain. The dissolution of the Soviet State started in Poland with the formation of the first free Trade Union, "Solidarnosc(Solidarity)" led by Lech Wallesa(pardon the guessed spelling). The Pope had nothing at all to do with any part of this movement. And Romania's own people threw off their hated dictator, Nikolai Caicescu(again guessed spelling) and the first the Americans knew of it was when they read it in their morning newspapers.
    5
  93. Not only should the teacher have been sacked, but the entire school board should've been sacked and barred from ever working in similar roles ever again for their failure to remove this racist teacher after her first rule violation.
    5
  94. America needs to completely rebuild its governmental structure from ground up. The presidency should be STRIPPED of ALL executive power and be rendered a Ceremonial Figurehead position ONLY. Actual EXECUTIVE power in Government should/MUST be vested in a Prime Minister and Cabinet of ministers with various portfolios(education, health care, transport, finance, treasury, etc.). Trump's presidency should've rung alarm bells in 2016 about what kind of president he would be, and now America is seeing EXACTLY Trump's true colours.... HE IS A DESPOT, DICTATOR, TYRANT! He is EVERYTHING that Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, Benjamin Franklin and others were striving to AVOID as they formulated America's SECULAR constitution!
    5
  95. Mat Broomfield: The lady had dementia, plus did not speak or understand English. Telling her to drop the knife will have sounded like gibberish to her ears. Demonstrating the act will mean nothing to her with her dementia.
    5
  96. The cop should be IMMEDIATELY sacked, along with the police chief in the district and the mayor of the city. This violation of these citizens' rights should have repercussions RIGHT UP TO THE VERY TOP. No-one should be able to walk away from this and retain ANY position AT ALL. The ENTIRE STATE'S administration MUST wear the guilt for this violation, up to the GOVERNOR him/herself!
    5
  97. I just had a thought: Was the unconscious truck driver Afro-American? If so, that would explain perfectly why this rogue police officer was attempting to violate the truck driver's AND the nurse's rights. None but the harshest sanctions possible should be enacted on that rogue cop... He deserves to lose EVERYTHING!
    5
  98. Yep! Nothin' to see here, folks! Just a whole lot of indictable damning evidence! Yeah, nothin'! LOL
    5
  99. Eddie Lampert.... The only proper place for him is a prison cell for THE REST OF HIS LIFE! The Sears/K-mart executives should get EXACTLY NOTHING!!! ALL THE MONEY should go to the sacked employees, plus the proceeds of executives' property and cash assets seized and liquidated should be paid to the sacked employees as compensation. Lampert and his cronies shouldn't even be left with a shirt to wear.
    5
  100. Sounds like a stunt Donald Trump would pull.

  101. 10:30 Lyn Wood is in cloud cuckoo land! Those were REAL planes that flew into the World Trade Centre towers in New York!

  102.  @realmoa  At the VERY least, the casino should be shut down and the place be operated simply as a hotel/motel.

  103. He does not need the so-called "Gift Of The Gab". He only needs the skills of diplomacy and tact.

  104.  @sebastienloyer9471  I was talking about something years ago that a neighbour I knew had to do before travelling overseas. Anyway. You are the ignorant one here because injection of chemical mixture to guard against diseases is called VACCINATION! And the chemical mixture is called a VACCINE!
    4
  105.  @tonys3165  I get what you're saying. Murdoch should be stripped of ALL his Australian media holdings as he threw away his Australian citizenship in order to get his grubby paws on British and American media(TV, radio and newspapers) as well as in Europe, Asia and elsewhere. He showed no respect whatsoever for his birth country, he deserves only contempt from us Ausralians.
    4
  106.  @Ozvideo1959  You're not telling me anything I don't already know. Niki Savva, Paul Kelly(not the singer, thank goodness), Greg Sheridan, Malcolm Farr, Dennis Atkins and their ilk.... they're not journalists, they're HACKS working for Murdoch's Australian-based gutter-rags.
    4
  107. No, Pat Melton, Trump is the curse America must endure until such time as he is impeached, or better still, convicted and jailed for HIGH TREASON!

  108.  @The_Str4nger  I missed the 'd' until I saw it later in the video.

  109. 38:38 Word misspellt. Shown as "Historiker" when it should be "Historischer".

  110. Germany, as a nation should NEVER be forgiven for what was done to Poland and its people. Even today in the 21st Century, Germans should be forbidden to even visit Poland, let alone live there. And I say this even after learning to speak German, which I only did in recognition of my own language, English, being of the Germanic language family.

  111. The quartet became a trio when Peter Tork left in late 1968. The remaining trio of Mickey Dolenz(originally called Mickey Braddock in his "Circus Boy" days), Davey Jones and Mike Nesmith stuck it out for another year before going their separate ways in late 1969. Nesmith formed a "phantom" group called The First National Band, which was just himself playing all the instruments on his two big hits of 1970, "Joanne" and "Silver Moon" and their respective B-sides, "One Rose" and "Lady Of The Valley" plus other cuts off his "Taproot Manuscript" album. Dolenz and Jones teamed up with Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart, using their surnames as the name of their group. This happened about mid-1970s, then the reforming of The Monkees with Dolenz, Jones and Tork but Nesmith wasn't interested as he had his own projects to work on at the time. That's it in a nutshell.

  115. Olivia's accent was tempered by her primary and high school years in Australia. It's known that if a child emigrates to another country, his/her accent will gravitate toward that which is spoken in the new environment, but if an adult emigrated, his/her original accent will still be prominent. It's all to do with the palate, at the roof of the mouth. Children's palates are still soft until about mid-teens when they begin to harden. By adulthood the palate is hard and the accent is "locked in". If a Scottish child moved to London when he/she is about 8 or 10, by the time of the child's next birthday, he/she will be speaking with a London accent. A Scottish adult will still have a heavy Scottish accent.

  116. Yes, SERIOUSLY! American police are no better than terrorists with the behaviour they display of late.

  117. I WOULD NOT want to see an American cop join Australia's police forces state or federal. They are UTTERLY INCAPABLE of being retrained. If an American cop turned up at an Australian police station asking about joining, he should be immediately arrested and deported as an UNDESIRABLE ALIEN TERRORIST!

  118. This forecast made 10 months ago. Add to this, Trump alienating Canada and Europe with punitive and unjust tariffs on various products, separating children from parents at the Mexican border(only reversing that policy because of public pressure), courting enemy nations over allies(North Korea, Russia) which is outright TREASON! Trump deserves to see out the rest of his days in a cold, damp prison cell.

  125. That email was fake, threatening Democrat voters to vote for Trump, but it could just as easily have been true because it's a page from the Republican Party's book of tactics. They'll do ANYTHING to win! Playing fair is NEVER part of the Republican Party's methods.

  131.  @Jradaus  I subscribed to, and started watching some of Friendlyjordies' videos but soon unsubscribed again as he appeared far too erratic and was going after the wrong targets, railing against the Sydney Morning Herald & Age papers when it's the Murdoch gutter-rags he should be attacking.

  132. @Chicha 17: Sounds like a recipe for a "roller-coaster" response to lack of doctors. Abuse and overworking leads to drain of staff. Desperation leads to improving salaries and conditions resulting in a return to previous staffing levels where the abuse and overworking once again leads to drain of staff....and up and down, around and around..... 457 Visas will bring in doctors from overseas who are trained to grossly inferior standards compared to Australia, for example, the USA. Our working conditions may well be bad but our standard of training would be superior to the USA but equal to New Zealand. While our training standards are high, our treasonous Liberal government has made us the laughing stock of the rest of the world in EVERY OTHER FIELD OF ENDEAVOUR. The only Australian-made product you can buy in Australia is a packet of matches.
    3
  133. @Chicha 17: "Overworked and underpaid? Sounds like many careers". Yes it does, that's quite true, but young new doctors are clearly more susceptible to this situation than most. And if the situation of exploitation and overworking, and underpaying these young doctors, then they'll rightly get fed up with the situation and leave the profession, then where will we find the much-needed staff staff for our hospitals after we've abused those we had to the point where they've left the profession in droves?
    3
  134. @Jerry Yu: You are obviously one of the great number of young, new doctors, and you're clearly writing from first-hand experience. I guess the only "weapon" you have at your disposal is strike action, but that could go against you just as likely as it could work for you. If you're not already a member of a union, join one, and soon, for your own sake, and get your colleagues to do likewise. Unity is Strength. I wish you all the very best. Cheers!

No-one wants to be exploited! But unless you all club together and stand up for yourselves, you'll continue to be exploited and taken for granted. Joining a good, strong union is your only REAL hope of getting any kind of justice.

  137. These "junior doctors" need to be protected by legislation that ensures a LENGTHY prison sentence for hospital CEOs(registrars) who push these young doctors into shifts lasting beyond 8 hours without meal breaks. 40 years with NO PAROLE should be the MINIMUM sentence.

Even after a hundred years of Democrat rule, America will NEVER, EVER AGAIN have even a millionth of a percent of the credibility it had as a nation before Trump, and even then America's credibility was seriously depleted after Nixon.

  152. Obviously your a supporter of that man-child Trump so there'll be no getting sense out of you. While these arms manufacturers are supplying weapons to so-called "friendly" states, they're supplying through "back-door" channels the dictatorships propped up by the US. Saddam Hussein was once propped up by the US as well, or have you forgotten? America has interfered with the sovereignties of several middle-eastern countries and yet America kicks up a stink if those middle-eastern countries dare to assert themselves. As evil as Islamic State was, and is, the rise of ISIS and the Taliban or Al Qaeda would more than likely never come about if America kept its nose out of those middle-eastern countries' affairs. If America had followed Jimmy Carter's example and kept out of other countries' affairs, "let sleeping dogs lie" then 11/9/2001(note the correct order, day/month/year) would NEVER have happened.

  169. Al Sharpton by his candidacy for the presidency(spelled deliberately with lower-case 'p') was blatantly violating the wall between church and State contained in the First Amendment of America's SECULAR Constitution. In order to strengthen that amendment, religious leaders of all religious cults should be banned outright from running for president, and we in Australia need a similar law to protect Australia from sliding down into the gutter of theocrasy.

  175.  @robertristevski3446  I have a whole different slant on media. 1) Commercial TV and radio networks should be broken up with all stations operating as stand-alone concerns, not having any kind of affiliation with any other TV or radio station in Australia. Only ABC and SBS should operate as networks but first, SBS should be stripped of its privilege of running ads. 2) Media ownership should be ONLY ONE TV station per proprietor, OR ONLY ONE radio station per proprietor OR ONLY ONE newspaper per proprietor in ONE MARKET ONLY! And the proprietor MUST BE A LONG-TIME RESIDENT IN THE REGION SERVED BY THE TV, or Radio station or the newspaper. 3) If you own radio, you shall be barred from owning TV or newspaper, if you own TV that shall bar you from owning radio or newspaper, likewise, owning a newspaper bars you from TV or radio. Regional media should be owned by regional proprietors, in line with cases 2 and 3. 4) Translator stations shall be the exclusive preserve of regional TV stations with a maximum of 6 unstaffed translators per station. Metropoltan (capital city stations) shall be allowed only *one translator and ONLY if topographical obstacles require such translator. For this purpose, Canberra will be classed as a regional city. Now to your suggestion. no politician, whether current, nor former, shall have ANY involvement with commercial TV, radio or print media, whatsoever! That ban will be lifelong.

  179.  @podfixx  You were taught wrong, and considering it's French influence, that compounds the crime! In all but a handful of cases, words beginning in 'H', be they nouns, adjectives or verbs, take A instead of an as their preposition. The ONLY exceptions are hour(hourly), Honour(honoured, honouring, honourable), heir and heirloom.
    2
  180.  @AussieCarsRule  It is INDEED A Historic because the 'H' is aspirated(pronounced). It is NOT silent! The 'H' is only silent in "hour"(hourly), "honour"(honoured, honouring, honourale), "heir" and "heirloom". in ALL other cases, the 'H' is NOT SILENT and any noun, adjective or verb beginning with 'H' takes A, not an as its preposition!

  183. Israel was a state created post-WW2 by an infant United Nations effectively out of nothing and was imposed on Palestine without any consent from the Palestinian people. The Jewish people had just emerged from the utter devastation of the war with more than 6 million of their number murdered by the Nazis BUT the Jewish people learned NOTHING from their experiences about compassion and empathy for their fellow Semites in the Arab world. Instead, the Jews persecuted the Arab people of Palestine as much, if not more than they themselves were persecuted by the Nazis. So sympathy should not be wasted on discompassionate Jews and instead be given to the beleaguered and persecuted Palestinians. The only real way to end this conflict is NOT a two-state solution, rather the way to solve this is to ABOLISH the State of Israel! Reduce Israel to the status of mere territory under Palestinian rule. By its actions over more than 70 years since its foundation, Israel has forfeited the right to exist as a nation.

That said, yes, I'm fully aware of what can potentially happen with Electoral College votes, particularly with the ultra-corrupt Republican Party having any influence in some states that voted overwhelmingly for Biden. This is why either of two measures should be taken: 1) Enact a law which COMPELLS the Electoral College to vote according to the wishes of the popular vote, or 2) Totally abolish the Electoral College!

The repugnant party has used this trick in elections for years, but this time(2020), the Democrats won in spite of the filthy tricks of the repugnant party. This discussion is at an end.

It was NOT Channel 9 that ripped off(stole) YouTube Creators' content, it was Station GTV-Melbourne, Station TCN-Sydney, Station QTQ-Brisbane, Station NWS-Adelaide and Station STW-Perth that did the deed. Channel 9 is physically non-existent! It is a mere chunk of spectrum space and nothing more. In the analogue days it was 201-to-208Mhz near the top of VHF Band 3. I don't know the frequency range on the digital platform but I do know that several signals are multiplexed on the one frequency range. A channel has NO staff, earns NO revenue, pays NO overhead costs and produces NO content. All of that, including theft of YouTube content is done by the STATIONS!

It is NOT narcistic to expect a degree of proper use of the English language, and my comment is NOT pointless! Just knowing where and how to use "There", "Their" and "They're", or "Your" and "You're" in a sentence should not tax people's brains either. And saying that you're using a mobile phone to post your comments is NOT a legitimate excuse as several models of mobile phone these days incorporate a full QWERTY keyboard for text messaging or writing posts to YouTube, Facebook or Twitter. Using such "shortcuts" as "ur" for "your" or "you're" is leading to the corruption of our great language.

  214. When you say "Volk"(German word, literally translates as "Folk", or "People") then the 'V' should be pronounced like an 'F'. Indeed, the 23rd and 24th letters of the German Alphabet, 'V' and 'W' are named thus: V = "Fau", W = Weh(pronounced Veh). The 'V' is sounded like an 'F' and the 'W' like a 'V'. The German Alphabet has 27 letters as there is an "Etszet"(like this: ß, looking like a fancy 'B') which follows the 'S'. To further illustrate the pronunciation of 'V' and "W' in German, take the name of the car, the Volkswagen, abbreviated to VW. We in the English-speaking countries naturally say Vee-Doubleyou but in Germany they say Fau-Veh. And while we've bastardised the full German name as Volkswagen, the German-speakers say it as Folksvagen! Wie soll Ich das Wißen? Ich hab’ Deutsch gelernt! How should I know that? I have learned German!

Those four I named in bold print would rate as "Mel Brooks' Greatest Hits".

  219. America is NOT a democracy, America HAS NEVER BEEN a democracy! America is a BLIGHT on the world! The United Nations should seek a venue in Geneva, Switzerland(die Schweitz) for their headquarters and the USA should be EXPELLED from the UN, but GOVERNED BY the UN, in other words, for the absolute atrocities committed by the USA on other nations, AND ON ITS OWN CITIZENS, the USA should be stripped of its sovereignty.

  220.  @davidlafleche1142  Here's the greater part of the problem.... RELIGION! Those far-right millionaires are all, or mostly evangelical christians who want to break down the wall of separation between church and state to get their own way and stuff the rest of the country's citizens! They don't matter. I'm glad I'm an Australian living in Australia. Even though often, of late I've had cause to be ashamed of my country, we haven't stooped so low as to let millionaires hijack our constitution.

  223. The Palestinians are NOT the terrorists here, ISRAEL IS THE REAL TERRORIST NATION! And no, I'm NOT being anti-Semitic here, as Palestinians are ALSO a Semitic people, they just believe a different BULLSHIT to the Jewish BULLSHIT! (Bullshit = religion).

  224. 15:32 And more proof these narrators are monolingual Americans. A native German-speaker would pronounce Vossenack as "Fossenack", as in German, the 'V'(called "Fau" in German") takes an "eff" sound. How do I know? From learning the language myself!
    2
  225. I do not believe the two narrators on this video are native German-speakers who are fluent in English, otherwise they would've pronounced Hürtgen correctly as Germans naturally prounced that name. It's a name which cannot be phonetically spellt in text as the two dots above the letter 'u', known as an umlaut, affect the pronunciation of that letter in a way that cannot be properly shown in print, and can only be demonstrated in actual speech. It's my suspicion that the two narrators are monolingual Americans hired to narrate this programme.

  227.  @FatherJoel  Whatever! My sympathies lie with the VICTIMS of the PUTRID catholic church and its paedophile priests, INCLUDING PELL! The three-part documentary, "Revelation" aired on ABC TV here in Australia showed just how low those priests went and how they were protected by the church after ruining the lives of their victims.

  228.  @deant3980  No, But I know this decision is a kick in the guts for all of the sexual abuse victims in Australia and elsewhere in the world. I'm not a victim myself but I can at least empathise with those who were and this "unanimous" decision by the High Court will tear the heart out of all those who suffered sexual abuse at the hands of catholic priests, including Pell, across Australia and elsewhere in the world.

  232. 4:30 Nixon DID NOT play Football! He played an over-choreographed, over-organised game called "Gridiron". Football is a European game, invented in England where the object of the game is to defeat the goalkeeper and kick or head the ball into a goal net, and the ball is spherical, as balls should be.

  239. Evolution is NOT instantaneous! It takes several million years for the process to take effect... but it DOES take effect! You can't put an animal in a cupboard one day and expect it to evolve into another species overnight. It just doesn't happen that way. The species of elephant we see today was evolved from a much larger animal(Mastadon) several million years ago, it took that long for the process to affect the size of the animal to make it shrink down to a size that would make the species more viable in the environment in which it lives.

  241. The girl DOES NOT WORK FOR Ch.7, she works for Station WSVN-Miami. NO-ONE in TV works for a channel, they work for STATIONS!

  243. The genocide of indigenous peoples have happened centuries before America, Australia, Canada or New Zealand were ever known of. It goes back centuries before when Celtic tribes were displaced by invading Europeans so it's nothing new.

  245. @Cenk Uygur: Cut the histrionics! Stop trying to imitate Trump because you look and sound as STUPID as Trump when you imitate him! It's that kind of presentation that makes me glad I did NOT subscribe to "The Young Turks" YouTube Channel, and why I unsubscribed(if I ever was subscribed) to Kyle Kulinski's channel.

  246. The hospital should be renamed the "Alex Wubbles Medical Centre". The cop, J. Payne, should be SACKED. He should have EVERYTHING HE OWNS SEIZED, INCLUDING CLOTHES OFF THEIR BACKS! Leave him NAKED AND HOMELESS with NOTHING to his name! And NOT just Officer Payne, but EVERY COP at EVERY LEVEL THROUGHOUT THE STATE OF UTAH should get the same punishment! SEVERE CRIME DESERVES THE MOST SEVERE PUNISHMENT! The thinking behind this is: If you, as a cop, commit the crime Officer Payne committed, then not only you but your colleagues get exactly the same punishment, you might stop and think before jeopardising your job, and the job of your fellow cops, not just at your precinct, but ALL of the state of UTAH.

  247. Aha! This says it all about Donald Dump: "His father bought his degree and paid off teacher after teacher because he was so slow they couldn't even teach him how to read"! Thank you, Carolyn Minter, Cheers! But what of his tweets?, Simple, he dictates them to someone who IS literate and can operate a mobile phone and/or a computer.

  248. I watch all this from Australia, where we have COMPULSORY voting at federal, state and local government elections because, put simply, voting isn't so much a right, it's more of a DUTY to your country that you have your say in who governs it. This ensures that any attempt at manipulating polls by a voting block, such influence will be cancelled out by EVERYONE 18 years and older participating at elections.
    2
  249. That's another MASSIVE problem for America... NON-STANDARD voting systems! America should adopt a STANDARD system which DOES NOT INVOLVE ANY KIND OF MACHINERY OR COMPUTER and apply it ACROSS ALL SEATS IN ALL 50 STATES!

  250. You americans(spelt deliberately with lower-case first letter in order to devalue your country) are clearly and demonstratively UTTERLY INCAPABLE of governing and policing yourselves fairly and equally.

  252. Isaac Moo, you have keyboard issues to sort out! Care to re-post?

  253. Not really! Jo Hammerstein was simply expressing the view that the cops are racist. As severe as the treatment of this child was, and thoroughly unwarranted, if the child had been anything other than Euro-Caucasian, he'd have suffered a lot worse treatment from a racist cop.

    2
  256. Indigolight6, and others, I don't think you got the gist of what Andrew Stewart was saying. He was, in a tongue-in-cheek fashion, saying there was a hell of a lot of evidence out there to bring Trump, Bannon, Pence and a bunch of Trump's other cronies undone.

  257. C Levy: Your son sounds like he's going to grow up as a decent person. You and your partner as parents can take full credit for that for sure. But you know, those who were schoolyard bullies as kids, it wouldn't surprise me if they became the "trolls" who infect these comment pages on YouTube, and likely also Facebook and Twitter.
    2
  258. You may have something there! You may well be right, C Levy!
    2
  259. It's the children who get no discipline from parents who are likely to be the schoolyard bullies. One such schoolyard bully type is now the US President. He is a bad example for any child to follow.

  260. Krista Stenvall, your credibility rating just shot through the roof! Atheists are the ones who possess the common sense! Christians are basically brainwashed fools. Interestingly, often the bullying is done by the Christians.

  262. 0:55 As I said earlier, this is your thumbnail image showing you holding a DVD instead of a CD. The colour on the recording side is lighter, only because it's being held up to a bright light source. Had you been holding it in a normally-lit room, the blue colour would be MUCH DARKER, appearing more of a deep purple colour.
    2
  263. Watching from Australia, I can see it is patently, and painfully clear that Trump MUST be impeached, but Pence is not fit to take over as President either. Thereby hangs the problem. Does the Republican Party have ANYONE fit to hold the offices of President and Vice-President? I DON"T THINK THERE'S ANYONE FIT OR WORTHY in the Republican Party for such offices.

  264. The ENTIRE TEXAS POLICE FORCE should be charged with the MURDER of Sgt. James Brown. If one or two cops commit the crime, the ENTIRE STATE's forces should pay the penalty. The penalty should be that the cops LOSE EVERYTHING! To be left naked and homeless with ABSOLUTEY NOTHING to their names

  269. I don't really want to be the so-called "internet grammar police" but I'm heartily sick of people posting sloppily-written comments, using "there" when "their" or "they're" should've been used(for example). As someone educated in the 1960s when English grammar was one of THE MOST important subjects taught in Australian schools. All I can think of when I see the standard of writing in several comments posted here and on other videos, is that the standard of English taught in schools these days, particularly in American schools(seemingly), is at best, sloppy, at worst, utterly atrocious!

  272. It is time that Australia, New Zealand, Britain, Canada and the democratic nations of Europe PUSHED AMERICA ASIDE as America is a FAILED STATE WITH ABSOLUTE ZERO CREDIBILITY as a democratic country. The people on this Belmarsh Tribunal which was named for the prison in which Julian Assange is being UNJUSTLY detained, have explained or are about to explain the GROSS ATROCITIES committed by the USA against any and all citizens of America or other countries who dared to stand up against those very ATROCITIES committed by America.

  273. Israel was imposed on Palestine as an act of an infant United Nations against Palestine's wishes and will. Effectively Israel is an illegally-created nation-state that simply should not exist as such. Israel is that "unwanted house guest" who starts with one bedroom, then takes over a second, or even third bedroom, then the lounge-room, kitchen, front and back verandas and pushes the original home owners into the laundry. Israel is greedy for land, to which it has no right. As such, Israel's nationhood should be revoked and Israel reduced to the status of territory under Palestinian governance.

  274. Margaret Thatcher just-about RUINED Britain and destroyed any possibility of another female Prime Minister. For Theresa May to have become PM, even for the brief time she held office, the ghost of Thatcher would've hung over her and spoiled her chances of having any lasting effect or leaving any legacy as PM. Thatcher deserved no praise or tribute. She deserved in death ONLY THE TRUTH be spoken about her, and that truth was SCATHINGLY ACCURATE coming from Glenda Jackson. May Glenda Jackson rest in well-deserved peace but the memory of Thatcher should be heled in UTTER AND COMPLETE CONTEMPT THROUGHOUT THE WORLD!!!!!

  280.  @erasingtheuigours5560  The papers were and are heavily "redacted", meaning a lot of the information they carried was blotted out. In situations like that, it's not worth releasing these papers at all. Such information should be fully disclosed or not disclosed at all!

  286.  @lilaclizard4504  Our media is ALSO in an awful mess as our ACMA(Australian Communications & Media Authority [Apologists]) are doing absolutely BUGGER-ALL to regulate our TV, radio and newspapers. We need a MUCH STRICTER authority to regulate our media and our media needs a wholesale shake-up. For a start, only ABC and SBS should be allowed to operate as networks(but first, SBS must lose its privilege of running ads, as SBS has ABUSED that privilege) and all the commercial TV and radio networks be ABOLISHED, leaving the stations as stand-alone broadcasters, they trade programmes across state borders, but on an open market. TCN-Sydney selling to or buying from either GTV-, ATV- or HSV-Melbourne, selling to or buying from BTQ-, TVQ- or QTQ-Brisbane, and the so-called regional "networks" should also be broken up with Bob Hawke's BRAIN-FART of regional market aggregation being dismantled. The incumbant station in each market reverting back to its own region, of the other two, one closed and the other sold to local owners and rebranded. For example, in my own region, Newcastle/Hunter, NBN-Newcastle's licence be seized from TCN-Sydney and handed back, free-gratis to Soul-Patinson (Newcastle-based chemist business) and NOT A CENT paid to TCN in compensation! The NEN(Prime) station be sold to other Newcastle-based owners and the former NRTV(now WIN) station closed down. The Syney stations would then have to sell their shows to two independent regional stations, like it should've been in the mid-1980s and early 1990s.

  288. Those people you listed did exist, with the exception of Muhammed. He, like Jesus, was mythical. Buddha and Conducius were just ordinary humans who claimed no special supernatural powers and abilities, their only "claim to fame" were wise sayings. They were simply philosophers, nothing more. Nostradamus is reputed to have been able to make predictions about the future. The jury's still out on his abilities, or lack thereof. Aristotle was a Greek, I believe he may have been a mathematician or astronomer. Alexander The Great was a Macedonian(not Greek) military leader and Leonardo Da Vinci was an Italian painter and inventor. His most famous painting is, of course, the Mona Lisa.

  289. 1) I'm NOT trolling, and 2) Jesus IS, WAS and ALWAYS WILL BE a mythical character. Get used to it because it's FACT! Jesus NEVER EXISTED!
    1
  290. I am INDEED saying it was ALL fantasy! Jesus was just a character, made up as an amalgam of other mythical people from much older tales than the bible. Jesus was no more real than Harry Potter, Hermione Grainger and Ron Weasley, the three heroic characters of J.K. Rowling's "Harry Potter" books.

  291. Point 1) Colour TV HAS been in force in Australia since 1st March, 1975. Point 2) Christianity WAS being hypocritical about Ouija boards, horoscopes and Tarot cards when Christianity itself is NOTHING BUT FANTASY!

  292. The media, both broadcast(TV & radio) and print(newspapers, magazines etc.) need to be strictly regulated, without right of appeal. But the ACMA - Australian Communications & Media Apologists - have failed dismally in the role of regulatory authority. If a media mogul should so much as look sideways at the ACMA, they look for the nearest rock or brick wall to hide behind, quivering in their boots, sucking their thumbs and shitting in their pants! This also applies to the ACMA's utter failure to stop regional media from being gobbled up by the capital city operations, and losing their local news bulletins.

  294. There should only be TWO networks on Australian TV, ABC and SBS. The commercial networks should be abolished, both metropolitan and regional, and the commercial stations be stand-alone individual stations with NO formal affiliations with ANY other station in ANY other state!
    1
  295. 9:55 Ad masqueraded as news, we have in Australia, the Australian Communications & Media Auth..... er.... Apologists which, if some media owner were to look angrily in their direction, would scurry behind a rock, suck their thumbs and shit their pants rather than actually do the job they were put there for, to REGULATE Australia's print and broadcast media! Australia needs a STRONG media regulator and a MASSIVE SHAKE-UP of media ownership laws: 1) ONLY the ABC and SBS to operate as networks. All commercial stations to operate ONLY as single stand-alone stations, Regional commercial networks also should be ABOLISHED. Applies to TV and radio. 2) Metropolitan TV proprietors shall own ABSOLUTELY NO PART, NOT EVEN .0001% OF REGIONAL STATIONS, Likewise with radio. 3) ALL Broadcast stations, TV or radio must be wholly-owned by interests residing WITHIN the region served by that station. 4) A media proprietor shall own ONE radio licence, AM or FM but not both, OR shall own ONE TV licence, OR shall own ONE newspaper IN ONE MARKET ONLY! This rule MUST BE SET IN STONE!
    1
  296. 12:33 A blatant ad dressed up as news, should earn TCN, STW, NWS and QTQ immediate and permanent licence cancellation. This is what I've been saying, we need a STRONG media regulator to replace the gutless cowards of the ACMA, and we need this new regulator RIGHT NOW!

  313. Invasion Day? Survival Day? Yeah, our "first nation's people" can call it that! They'd be right, too. The BEST day for us to celebrate Australia Day would be 1st January, in tandem with New Years Day, because it was on New Years Day in 1901 that Australia was born as a nation, a "New Nation", born on the very first day of a "New Century! Perfect Symbolism! Australia, as a nation had a bloody long gestation period, 112 years, 11 months and 5 days! Not even elephants carry their pregnancies for that long! To put it another way, one celebrates his/her birthday on the date he/she came into the world, not the day his/her mother was impregnated with the seed that became hi/her.

    1
  317. No-one looks on doctors or other medical practitioners as "gods" in this day and age. That's due to several of them being sued for malpractice, so the "mystique" surrounding them has long since evaporated. But nonetheless, competent doctors are still a necessity in society. And I'm not entirely sure about a claim that not taking out garbage for two days would cause the would to collapse in a heap, many council garbage collections happen on a weekly basis, that's 7 days, not 2 days between collections of garbage.

  318. We can care for ourselves up to a point, but beyond a certain point we do not have the expertise and the rigorous training needed to treat the more serious medical conditions in which we may find ourselves. The 98% figure is a bit too overly optimistic. A more realistic figure would be around 35% to 45% of our ailments could be dealt with by ourselves, with a degree of assistance from our GP.

When you're in a severe crash after one of your rev-head sessions, you had better hope the doctor who works on you is not fatigued by working a 36-to-48 hour shift because of a scumbag registrar who doesn't give a flying fuck how tired his staff is.

Australian doctors are trained to a standard higher than just-about anywhere else in the world but.......... in their everyday practices, they are NOT upholding those standards and the hospitals are helping them keep their blunders under wraps.

  329. There provisions in American law which give the President certain powers where he can overrule the Senate and Congress. Such powers in the hands of this Toddler-In-Chief are extremely dangerous. And, in the event that America should, in the future, have another president like this buffoon, the presidency should be stripped of those powers.

  330. ABC could ditch digital radio as digital is ineffective and inefficient. The signal does NOT travel as far as analogue FM or AM signals. ABC Classic FM should get the chop as well, as it's a remnant of ABC's elitist high-brow past. Classical and jazz are catered for already by another elitist high-brow broadcaster, MBS(Music Broadcasting Society). The MBS stations were the first on air on the FM band in 1974 but do not deserve any credit for pioneering FM as their playlists were of extremely minimal interest. Average listeners want Pop, Rock, Country, Soul/R. & B. music on their home or car radio, not dreary classical or jazz! These are two areas where the ABC could save millions of dollars.

  332. John Howard and his cohorts in 2004 committed treason against Timor L'Este. They deliberately violated Timor L'Este's sovereignty by bugging that young nation's Government House. Bernard Collaery and "Witness K" are heroes in this case, but are treated as criminals. The REAL criminals here are the Liberal Government of 2004. Every single member of Howard's cabinet, from BOTH houses, including Howard himself, should be rotting in Cessnock Correction Centre and other prisons for what they've done here.

He/she must act only in consultation with his/her cabinet which is a group of ministers for various portfolios(education, health, defence, etc.). The Governor-General is only a ceremonial figurehead with few, if any effective powers. One Governor-General exercised a reserve power on 11th November, 1975 that was extremely unpopular. Though the Prime Minister of the day(Gough Whitlam) did deserve the sack, the dismissal should've been our decision as citizens of the country to make, rather than a booze-sodden elitist arsehole like John Kerr.

  372.  @SwadianKnight101  My local station, established in 1962 is NBN-Newcastle, these days it's only NBN between 6pm and 7pm each night. Every other hour of the day it hides behind a channel number which it DOES NOT USE! NBN broadcasts on digital Ch.8 but identifies as Ch.9, which is the channel of Station TCN-Sydney. That's why I despise Hawke for what he did to our regional stations.
    1
  373.  @SwadianKnight101  It isn't the programme content, though, with these so-called "reality" shows, TV has gone down the toilet. No, it's the loss of regional stations' local "identity" to the point where they've become little more than "translators"(unstaffed transmitters that rebroadcast a parent station's signal on a different frequency) for the capital city stations.
    1
  374.  @roon1sicunt  I agree with your point but it wasn't the point I was making. I wasn't referring to programme content, rather I was referring to the loss of independence and of local "identity" each station had outside the capital cities.

  376. @pervert: Yeah, your opening sentence hits the nail on the head. I wasn't actually referring to Chinese-language newspapers as such, more I was referring to our mainstream media in general which should be 100% Australian-owned, and this means shutting Rupert Murdoch out as he has long since ditched his most priceless possession, his Australian heritage, to chase down, buy and corrupt foreign media. But, since you mention these Chinese-language papers, the original purpose of such a paper was to publish reports on activities in the local community, but be printed in either Mandarin or Cantonese, or both, for the benefit of those who cannot read English, but instead, they've become propaganda organs of the Chinese Dictatorship. This treasonous federal government has sat back and allowed this to happen and done nothing to prevent it, yet they were perfectly willing to kill off community TV by denying them the one single free-to-air channel they had to share while there were 7 free-to-air digital channels being wasted on 24 hour/7 day stations running nothing but bullshit ads for worthless products.

If you're in an art gallery and you see a picture that delights or disgusts you, do you credit or blame the artist who painted it? Or do you credit or blame the canvas on which the image was painted, completely ignoring the artist?. Recognition only of the channel instead of the (TV)station is the exact same thing as recognition only of the canvas and ignoring the artist.

I've already seen this on broadcast TV so I don't need to see it again, but I recall another singer who combatted stuttering and used a foreign accent to good effect as a means of getting around his stutter. He is Steven Zammit, a member of "Young Talent Time" from 1975 to 1979. He would use a fake American accent in order to speak fluently, and the trick worked for him. He was a brilliant singer who could sing any genre of song during his YTT days. The last time we saw him was on the 2001 TV special(later issued on DVD), "Young Talent Time Tells All".

If people are only focussing on the NEGATIVE aspects of American police, it's because any positive aspects are so few and so far between that they are totally DROWNED OUT by the negatives. The American police have EARNED themselves a well-deserved reputation as rogues and they bring policing around the world into severe disrepute.

Scotland, Ireland and Wales do have good reason to be proud of their respective countries, but England, as the historical oppressor, does not have much, if anything of which to be proud.

  423. "Don't say Gay"? Absolutely! The proper term is HOMOSEXUAL! The word "Gay" has been hijacked by the homosexual/bisexual/transsexual community when its proper meaning is "cheerful", "happy", "elated". This is NOT an issue of "freedom of expression", it is, instead, an issue of corruption of the language, to take some words and pervert their meanings. "Straight" is NOT the opposite of "Gay"! The opposite meaning to "Gay" is "Morose", meaning "sad", "miserable", "dejected", "depressed". The word "Straight" has two definitions, one being geometric, a line without curves, bends or angles, the other being ethical, meaning "honest", "sincere", "candid", "trustworthy". As for those women calling themselves "Lesbians", if they're NOT born on the Greek island of Lesbos, and cannot even speak a word of Greek, then they HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO RIGHT TO IDENTIFY THEMSELVES AS SUCH! And even if they learned the language, they're still NOT Lesbians as they were NOT BORN ON THE ISLAND OF LESBOS! They are simply homosexual women..... end of story! So DON'T SAY GAY unless you're describing someone who's in a cheerful, happy mood.

The royal houses of Britain, and the now-rightly-abolished royal houses of Germany, Austria and Switzerland would quite rightly be seen as TRAITORS to the ordinary folk of those countries if the information divulged her had become public knowledge back in the 1940s. It may have resulted in Britain becoming a REPUBLIC!

  434.  @AtheistOrphan  The point I was making is that organisations(corporations, authorities, etc.) that identify themselves with sets of initials(acronyms), like R - E - M - E, those initials were never intended to be words! because often, initials made to be words, sound UTTERLY STUPID AND INFANTILE!

  435.  @MarkFeltonProductions  I see these initials made into words, and very often the ford sounds quite stupid! For example, "F-T-S-E" stands for(I believe) Financial Times Stock Exchange but I've heard Australian TV newsreaders call it "Footsie", which sounds bloody infantile! If anyone asked you where the "Footsie" is, you tell them it's on the end of their "legsie" but if they ask where the F - T - S - E is, you can tell them it's in London.

  437. Hirohito most CERTAINLY should've been dethroned and tried as a war criminal, for indeed he WAS a war criminal. As a penalty for their war crimes, measurably more atrocious than those of the Nazis, Japan should've been STRIPPED of its sovereignty, never to regain it. Japan should, even to this day, be ruled by a tripartite group with Australia/New Zealand/Canada at the head, Britain at Second Rank and America at third rank. All Japan's cities and towns renamed in English with Tokyo renamed Curtin City in honour of Australia's greatest Prime Minister, John Curtin, the second-most important city named for Neville Chamberlain, Britain's PM before Churchill, and the least important city named for George Washington, America's first President.

  444. There needs to be an amendment which a) forbids a disgraced outgoing president to pardon him/herself, and b) forbids a vice-president, assuming the role of president for however long or short his/her tenure, from pardoning his/her predecessor. Had this amendment been in place in 1974, Gerald Ford, on taking over the reins of the presidency, would NOT have been able to, nor would he have been permitted to pardon Richard Nixon, and thus Nixon would've then had to face the consequences of his corrupt presidency.

The Jews may have extracted some sympathy from the rest of the world for the way they were treated by the nazis(deliberately spelled with lower-case 'n') but there were lessons to be learned here that the Jews COMPLETELY FAILED to learn. Principal of these is COMPASSION FOR FELLOW SEMITES! That's right! The Palestinians are SEMITES with only the religion varying(but religion is invalid anyway as it's man-made superstition). It's there in the genetic make-up. Instead of showing compassion for fellow Semites, the Jews PERSECUTED the Palestinians just as brutally as they themselves were persecuted during WW2. Israel should be STRIPPED OF ITS SOVEREIGNTY AND REDUCED TO THE STATUS OF A TERRITORY UNDER PALESTINIAN GOVERNANCE, BUT WITH NO VOTING RIGHTS! This as punishment for their treatment of the Palestinians since 1948.

  459.  @t4nkman  The 2019/2020 summer season has seen temperatures of 40+ Degrees, drying out vegetation, combine this with "dry storms" which give lightning but no rain, igniting these fires and we've seen catastrophic conditions across Queensland, NSW, Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia and also instances in Tasmania. The fire chiefs who warned Morrison knew precisely what they were talking about as they've had their first-hand experiences of fighting fires, yet Morrison and this fuckwit Bolt think they know better than the people who've RISKED THEIR VERY LIVES to protect life and property against fires like this.
    1
  460.  @t4nkman  The fires are only arson in about 20% of cases at most. "Dry storms" where lightning hits but no rain ensues causes many of the fires because of the season, summer weather results in instances like this, tinder-dry foliage on the ground hit by lightning, result: bush-fire! Morrison was warned last year that the summer months were going to be extreme, but in his arrogance and ignorance, dismissed the warnings.

  461.  @t4nkman  THE FIRES ARE ARSON in only one or two instances. The rest are caused by summer temperatures into the 40s and tinder-dry vegetation. CLIMATE CHANGE IS HAPPENING!

Scott Morrison should've heeded those warnings and acted in July, 2019 while there was still time to avert what we have seen since August when the bush-fire season began EARLY!!! The fire chiefs KNEW PRECISELY what they were talking about! Bolt, on the other hand, knows STUFF-ALL!!!!!

Thus a convicted criminal has ABSOLUTELY NO CHANCE to become Prime Minister, State Premier or even local council Mayor!

  471. A terrible lot of Americans just cannot face reality. As to Elvis being "King Of Rock & Roll", that title rightly belonged to Aussie, Johnny O'Keefe. O'Keefe controlled his OWN career while Presley allowed himself, wittingly or unwittingly, likely the latter, to be exploited by that illegal Dutch Alien that called himself Colonel Tom Parker. O'Keefe's manager, Lee Gordon, played only a minimal role in O'Keefe's career, managing O'Keefe's finances was the extent of Gordon's involvement. When Lee Gordon died, O'Keefe's new manager, if there was one, had the same role as Lee Gordon. O'Keefe chose all his own material for live shows and records, planned his own tours, concerts and TV appearances. Johnny O'Keefe sadly died in October, 1978, the very day after his last TV appearance on the "Steve Raymond Show" that went out from Station TEN-Sydney on Friday Night(can't remember the date). Johnny O'Keefe is sadly missed by his Aussie fans but we have faced reality and do NOT try to pretend he's still alive. We remember him fondly as we listen to his back-catalogue of hits issued by Festival Records, his enduring legacy. Johnny O'Keefe did not start Festival, he joined Festival in 1956 but he is the reason why the record company thrived after Mainguard Ltd. (the company that first established Festival in 1952 as one of its subsidiaries) went belly-up after several other unsuccessful ventures.

  473.  @ljimlewis  Not saying "hang" Nixon, but jail him for life as he committed crimes while holding the highest office in America(but not the world) and pardoning Nixon set a precedent that should never have been set. Gerald Ford gave carte blanche to criminal presidents from that moment onward, and in the past four-to-five years we've watched the ugly result of an autocratic, megalomaniacal president showing his true colours!

  474. And then Gerald Ford did the UNFORGIVEABLE act of pardoning Nixon, when Ford should've ordered Nixon spend the rest of his life in prison for High Treason for his crimes in office. That Ford pardoned Nixon, opened the way for Trump to be even more criminal in his single term from 2016 to 2020.

The Liberals in Australia are a party of traitors, founded by an arch traitor, "Pig Iron Bob" Menzies, which(not who, Menzies is not worthy of even that level of respect) got its nickname after it broke an embargo on shipments of pig iron to Japan, just before WW2 broke out. the nick-name was well-deserved as that same pig iron came back to Australia in the form of the bombs that fell on the tiny NT outpost town of Darwin and the West Australian city of Broome, and was the very same pig iron that fell on Pearl Harbour, Hawaii that caused America to enter the war, which was already more than two years old at the time(7/12/1941).

After that incident, gun ownership here is now strictly and tightly controlled. I despised John Howard while he was Prime Minister of Australia, and quite frankly still do, but the gun laws he enacted after Port Arthur were the only thing he got right. Thankfully, here in Australia, we do not have such an utter obscenity as the National Rifle Association.

  516. Here in Australia TV call-signs for commercial stations are: two letters to denote the licensee with the third letter denoting the state, N = New South Wales(NSW); V = Victoria; Q = Queensland; S = South Australia; W = West Australia; T = Tasmania. The Northern Territory is NOT a state, the third letter in the TV call sign there is D = Darwin(the chief town in the territory), the state identifier should be S = South Australia. The Australian Capital Territory is also NOT a state, it is cocooned within the state of NSW but TV call-sign identifier letter there is C = Capital, it should be N = NSW. The ABC TV network(national non-commercial) call-signs are AB followed by state alpha identifier in state capitals, and in regional and rural areas, one, two or even three letters between the AB and state alpha identifier. When SBS(Special Broadcasting Service) started their TV network in 1980, the broadcasting authority of the day never applied the call-sign template to them. Strange, that! With radio a state numerical identifier precedes two call-letters for AM stations and three call-letters followed by -FM for....you guessed it! They are: 2 = NSW and ACT; 3 = Victoria; 4 = Queensland; 5 = South Australia(should also apply to Northern Territory); 6 = West Australia; 7 = Tasmania; 8(but should be 5) = Northern Territory.

  517. It doesn't necessarily have to stand for anything. The 'W' indicates what group the station belongs to and the 'SVN' is possibly a clue to the corporate identity of the station owners. You'd immediately know who owns and operates a TV or radio station if its call-sign was "WCBS" or "KNBC".

  532. +Tracey S.: Russ Hinze indeed, yes, but you've forgotten Terence Lewis, he was, I believe, Police Commissioner during the Bjelke-Petersen era and just as rotten-corrupt as Bjelke-Petersen himself. So it's no surprise the Qld Police were so corrupt. Like the fish, the rot starts at the head and goes to the rest of the body, so it was with the Qld Police, the corruption started with Lewis and spread, like cancer to the rest of the force. As for the federal government, I doubt they even had the intestinal fortitude to sort Bjelke-Petersen out, BjElke Petersen held the top spot from about 1968 or so, right up the 1984(?*) FitzGerald Royal Commission into corruption in the Qld Government and Police. Thankfully we're well rid of this scumbag trio of Bjelke-Petersen, Hinze and Lewis but I still think there's more than a tiny element of corruption still infecting the Qld Police, and I doubt there's anything that could convince me otherwise.

  533. Well, look at the decisions made by the lawmakers in America! Haven't exactly covered themselves in glory now, have they? Gerrymandering electorates is a CRIMINAL act! We used to have a state premier who was notorious for blatant gerrymandering of electoral boundaries but he died about a decade or so ago and we're well rid of that contemptible old felon, Johannes Bjelke-Petersen, former premier of Queensland.... long may he rot. Even the worms wouldn't eat his carcass, he was so corrupt, they'd die of food poisoning.

  534. There's already more than enough to charge him with as of now. Conflict of interest is a doozey, he's been using the office of President to further his own business interests, blatantly violating the emoluments clause in your constitution, the matter with the Russians, granted it's still to be proven but it will be thrown onto the stack of ready impeachment triggers when it is proven.... It's all piling up!

  535. I will NEVER, EVER visit America! If I could travel ANYWHERE in the world outside Australia, it would be to New Zealand, England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales or Canada where the Police are civilised. If I travelled to the USA I would not get back home except in a body-bag as I would be murdered by a Yank cop!

  536. Turnbull is turning out to be even worse a Prime Minister than his predecessor in the role, Tony Abbott. This assessment based partially on his utter gullibility when dealing with Donald Duck....er.... Trump. steel and aluminium* tariff reneging won't be the last time Trump duds our government, it wasn't the first either.  (*note the spelling, broken down into syllables:  "al-u-mini-um").

  538. Long before anyone ever heard of little Donnie Tantrum-Thrower Trump or the term "Fake News", there was a newspaper(and I'm actually loathe to call this gutter-rag a "newspaper) called "The Melbourne Truth". This paper existed in the Victorian city, host to the state's capital* in the late 19th Century through to some time in the 1970s or so, but I certainly hope it has been flushed down history's toilet bowl by now. This gutter-rag published bull-shit article after bull-shit article and gained a reputation for it almost from its establishment.    *The Capital of any state is not the city, but the actual building in which the state government meets. for example, the Capital of New South Wales, lies across the street and slightly south of the intersection of MacQuarie Street and Martin Pace in Sydney(note the upper-case 'Q' in the street name, that is the CORRECT way to write it, and if Spellcheck drops it to lower-case, you over-ride Spellcheck and reinsert the upper-case 'Q').

  539. +CosaNostra 42, you must be one of those who laps up every bit of bullshit fed to you by the Fox Network, owned by the king of gutter-trash journalism(?), Rupert Murdoch. We in Australia are well rid of this turd who has taken the once-respectable and reputable London Times(UK) paper and took it down to the gutter as a tabloid-style scandal-rag. Everything Murdoch touches turns to shit.

  540. Yes, I said that! What I've thus far seen of TYT shows them to be level-headed clear-thinkers who get right to the guts of the matter and deal with it fairly and properly, whereas Breitbart, from what I've learned of them, take a jaundiced view of all issues, poisoned by their baseless hatred for anyone who is not of the extreme right-wing as they are, or not of northern European "Caucasian" descent.

  548. That officer SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO RESIGN! The only way out for him should've been the ignomy of being SACKED and forfeiting his pension. Rogue cops MUST BE MADE TO SUFFER FOR THEIR CRIMES AGAINST CITIZENS!

  549. I don't need to add to the story, Cenk Uygur said it all. What gets me is something unrelated. The term "Freshman", Why can't you Americans simply say "First Year Student" or "Second Year Student"? Why do you use these bullshit pretentious terms like "Freshman", "Sophomore"? Hearing these words is like running fingernails across a blackboard.

  550. It has become extremely clear to me that you, @Hamilton Jet Sports Association, are as ignorant as Trump! LITERACY IS VITAL IN ALL PROFESSIONS AND IN ALL OCCUPATIONS!!!! WHY THE HELL CAN YOU NOT SEE THIS?????

  551. YOU STILL NEED TO BE LITERATE!!!!! The president has to be able to read and understand bills that he signs into law! Any 10-year-old in social studies class would know that much!

  552. It's got nothing whatsoever to do with beating anyone! It has EVERYTHING to do with his capability to read and write - HIS LITERACY SKILLS! If an aspirant for ANY job, up to, and including the Presidency of the USA, does not have literacy skills, he/she should not be in that job... End of story!

  555. That teacher should be spending the rest of his miserable life in prison and ALL his property confiscated and liquidated, the proceeds used to pay the victim and his family.
    1
  556. The way to FIX the problem is NOT TO HAVE ANY AMERICANS IN A POLICE FORCE CONTROLING AMERICAN STREETS. THE POLICE PATROLING AMERICA SHOULD BE CANADIAN, BRITISH, AUSTRALIAN, NEW ZEALANDER, TRAINED IN THEIR OWN COUNTRIES. Police Commissioners should also be drawn from Canada, Britain, Australia and New Zealand. NO AMERICAN SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO WEAR A POLICE UNIFORM OR BADGE AS THEY CANNOT BE TRUSTED.... PERIOD!

  557. Chris Belk should NOT be accepting the apology, instead he should sue the Beverly Hills Police to the point of their bankruptcy. And not just the station but each officer individually, right up to and including the COMMISSIONER.

  560. These cops should be serving life sentences without any chance of parole. The victim was reaching for his licence. His only "crime" was being black.

  561. Your constitution, such as it is, with all its amendments, and your "Bill of Rights" don't amount to a hill of cow-shit when you're Afro-American and the front door of your house or apartment is bashed in by rogue cops looking for drugs or other "contraband" which you don't have or even know about, because of a false tip-off from a racist neighbour, and the cops themselves are extremely racist..... I'm Caucasian and even I would not feel safe if I were American...... I'm so GLAD I'm NOT an American!!!
    1
  562. Some "Bill Of Rights!" HAH! Where's your Bill Of Rights when your front door is bashed in by rogue cops WITHOUT SEARCH WARRANTS, looking for drugs or other contraband in YOUR apartment, when you have none of that stuff, but you're Afro-American and a racist neighbour has rung those cops with a false tip-off about you.... and the cops themselves are racist..... where's your precious "Bill of Rights" then, ay?
    1
  563. For a start, you change the position of President from executive head of government to a ceremonial figurehead ONLY and put in a Prime Ministership as your effective Executive Head Of Government. If you want the best example of this, look to the Australian parliamentary model. Moreover, you should have COMPULSORY voting for ALL citizens of age 18 or over, as long as they are registered on a voting roll which needs to be vetted by an INDEPENDENT AUTHORITY which has neither Democrat, nor Republican members making up this authority.... TOTALLY NEUTRAL! The need for compulsory voting is clearly obvious, even to a blind man. Optional voting means that only those motivated by extreme political viewpoints will actually go out and vote while the larger portion of the population stays at home(apathy). As a result, the extremist wins the seat in government, and if the process is repeated over each voting district(electorate), you'll get a government made up of extremists who will then do away with democratic elections altogether. Compulsory voting ensures the larger vote count cancels out the extremist vote as the votes will, by and large, go to either of the major parties, who, by necessity need to straighten out their membership and expel the corrupt members. In reality, the Australian parliamentary method is, though not perfect, by far the superior method of governance. New Zealand uses basically the same model(with some modifications to suit NZ) and is far superior to the British system, from which we derived our method, that to refer to ours as a "Westminster" system would be a gross insult to our Australian system.... Why? because Britain's upper house(House of Lords) is infested with useless unelected aristocratic twats who wouldn't even know what day of the week it was, let alone what bill they were debating and voting on, whilst in Australia, our Senate is a States' house with members voted in by the populace of each state(and territory). No useless aristocracy here, mate!

  564. The three cops should be charged with first degree murder.

  565. The Weirton PC who shot Mr Williams in the back of the head was a gutless coward and deserves nothing but utter contempt. Officer Mader should've received a commendation for talking down a suicide attempt and almost successfully resolving the situation until that cowardly cur shot an (effectively) unarmed Mr Williams(gun unloaded). The chief of that office should be run out of town as he...no, it is just as contemptible as the scum that shot Mr Williams.

  568. The kids are Afro-American....BANG! RACISM!!!!! If those kids were white, this would not be happening AT ALL!

  569. Those two kids, now in their teens, have every valid reason to absolutely despise the police.....AND THEY SHOULD!
    1
  570. The kid had asthma. It all falls into place. 1) The bus driver was in the wrong for telling the kid to put the window back up, because the kid needed to be able to breathe properly and NEEDED the window to be down. Remedy: sack the driver. 2) Kids handcuffed and one kid has his legs kicked out from under him by belligerent cops. Remedy: prosecute the cops then shut down that police precinct station and sack ALL cops in that station.
    1
  571. YES, EVERY SINGLE ONE IN ALL 50 STATES!!!!! The entire American police force has dragged policing around the world into the gutter. There is not ONE single police officer ANYWHERE in ANY of the 50 US states who can be trusted to correctly behave and uphold the law. They ALL think they are ABOVE the law and it does not apply to them. The ENTIRE American police force is ROTTEN CORRUPT!
    1
  572. The camera would've worked but was deliberately NOT turned on. The cop is a murderer and a COWARD!

  573. Video such as this MUST be released BEFORE the police get to see it so the PUBLIC knows who's truly guilty, and in 100% of instances it will be the COPS who are guilty of cold-blooded MURDER!

  574. AMERICA'S POLICE ARE MALICIOUS COWARDS - EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM IN EVERY ONE OF 50 STATES!!!!!

  578. The term "campus" ONLY applies to grounds of universities or colleges. It does NOT apply to primary(elementary) or high school grounds, those are simply "school grounds. But to the point of this video, the principal of the school should be sacked immediately for denying the students of this school to join this protest. The parents of the students should DEMAND his INSTANT DISMISSAL, WITH TOTAL LOSS OF ALL ACCRUED SUPERANNUATION AND OTHER BENEFITS!

  579. DON'T EVER BE FAIR TO (AMERICAN)COPS! THEY'LL KILL YOU FOR NO REASON!!!
    1
  580. I've said this before and I'll say it again: America's ENTIRE police force across ALL 50 states should be SACKED! Then, the whole system closed down and rebuilt from ground up..... BUT.... ABSOLUTELY NO AMERICANS to be on the new forces. Instead, the new forces would be staffed at all ranks, uniformed and plain-clothed, by Canadian, British, Australian and New Zealander personnel. The reason is that they already speak English without having to learn the language first. As for the former cops, the only jobs that should be open to them is cleaning out the holding cells, officers' lunchrooms and the toilets. And WHY do I say this, this video proves it, plus where a black man stops a girl from being raped and gets arrested for his heroic deed, A hospital nurse is arrested and violently manhandled just for doing her job, black people being murdered by police officers pulling them up in their cars, even when unarmed and showing no resistance..... ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! America's police are 100% out of control and MUST BE SACKED!

  584. The kid wasn't Afro-American, and he was autistic. But it still does NOT excuse the police officer's disgraceful behaviour.
    1
  585. I'm not joking, I'm SERIOUS! I've covered the point that the child has suffered injustice, both from his school principal and an out-of-control cop who took matters way too far. But Jo Hammerstein's point IS still valid: How much worse would it have been for this child if, on top of his autism, he had been Afro-American, Latino or even native American indian? American cops ARE INDEED out of control and the ENTIRE policing system in America is PUTRID.
    1
  586. It was a hypothetical point. It did not need to be true, it was a "what if...." scenario, and in light of American police behaviour in recent times, it's not all that ridiculous at all.
    1
  587. Seth Stone, you've missed the point. Jo Hammerstein was giving a hypothetical situation, saying what would've happened IF the boy was black(Afro-American). As it was the kid was treated far more severely than he should've been, And the principal of this school should've been summarily sacked, then sued to the point of bankruptcy by the child's mother.
    1
  588. More than likely! And the kid need not be Afro. Because Yank cops are COMPLETELY out of control.
    1
  589. What's so surprising here? It's Fox, owned by Rupert Murdoch, king of GUTTER-PRESS! America should've BARRED him from owning ANY radio or TV stations or newspaper, or even one-hundred-thousandth of a percent of any media outlet ANYWHERE!
    1
  590. From an Australian in Australia to ALL American cops IN AL:L 50 STATES this message: You have been viewed by me and others on YouTube, blatantly violating the rights of the citizens you were sworn to protect. Thus YOUR rights should be forfeited and you should have ABSOLUTELY NO AVENUE OF APPEAL as you would deny justice to your victims, so you should be denied justice.
    1
  591. The bullies should be immediately EXPELLED and NOT allowed to enrol at ANY OTHER SCHOOL ANYWHERE IN THE USA! The school's Principal and teachers, for failure to protect the child, should be SACKED and BANNED from working in ANY CAPACITY AT ANY OTHER SCHOOL IN THE USA. And in Both situations there should be NO RIGHT OF APPEAL for the BULLIES or their parents or for the teachers or the Principal.

  592. Very likely so! "Like father, like son", and "Like mother, like daughter". Sums it up neatly!

  593. Yes, REALLY, Fairymairah! Those religious nut-jobs(zealots) may be living in the 21st century but their mindset is stuck fast in the 17th century superstitions of witchcraft and misogyny that they cannot, and should never be taken seriously.
    1
  594. The reason why your American school system is "going down the toilet" is because you have religious idealogues on your various school boards and they use bully-boy tactics to get their own way in regard to curriculum and no-one is game to stand up to them. Get the religious nut-jobs out of your school boards and keep them out, and likewise keep them out of the schools themselves. It is those religious nutters who see a child with any degree of autism and label that child as "possessed by the devil" or some-such nonsense and will use that label as an excuse to persecute the autistic child.
    1
  595. I'm as sure as I can be, based on C. Levy's description of the child in the family. By their description, this boy will grow up to be a decent, caring adult and I hope he can grow to see a world where decent secular humanist values prevail and the selfish, hypocritical values of Christianity are finally and forever expunged.
    1
  596. Sounds like the right kind of discipline.
    1
  597. I'm glad to learn that this kid, the victim in this issue, did not get suspended. The boy who bullied him, he should've been EXPELLED and BARRED from attending any other school in that, and all other 49 states of the USA.
    1
  598. Obviously trust is an issue here. You, Kyle Nichols, find it hard to trust teachers unless you ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO do so. That in itself is an indictment on the teachers, up to and including the school principal. The very people you should be able to trust, prove themselves to be untrustworthy. From what I've seen through various other videos on YouTube, it's America's ENTIRE Police who can NEVER be trusted! They are 100% ROGUE!

  599. Blake Gale: You define yourself as high-functioning Asperger(Aspie), but on reading your posts here, you are one of the most well-written and articulate posters I've seen on YouTube.

Blake Gale, hold your head up and be proud to have come through your experiences reasonably unscathed.

  600. If one cop unjustly commits assault on a civilian, ALL COPS IN THE STATE must be made to pay for his crime, right up to and including the Commissioner. The Entire state's force should be shut down and replaced by Canadian, British, Australian or New Zealander police, wearing their own country's uniforms. The new commissioner should also be drawn from those countries. As for the cops sacked, they should be sued by the victim to the point of personal bankruptcy. Lawyers acting for the victim should be required to act pro-bono.

  601. That cop should've been sacked, but it's more likely he'd have been promoted because I suspect the entire station where he was based would've been racist.

For far too long in your country, the Putrid States of America's history, Afro-Americans were denied the opportunity of even getting a proper education, let alone getting college or university-level education, and you have the utter effrontery to talk about "Black Privilege"! You bring shame on the ENTIRE caucasian population of your Putrid States of America!

  606. So........? Republicans ARE low-life scum anyway so what's new? They are the direct equivalent of Australia's traitorous Liberal Party who sell Australia out at every turn and have done since their foundation back in 1946 by that arch traitor, Pig Iron Bob Menzies!

  611. Philips' "VCR" was a NIGHTMARE! The initial version used cartridges where the tape on concentric reels(one above the other) was held in CARDBOARD cartridge shells. The machine could only offer 1 hour of record/playback in the N1000 machine, and then 9o minutes in the N1500 machine but the machine would mangle the tape, making it unusable. Typical Philips, producing UTTER SHIT as usual!

  612. 9:51 Japan's NHK is NOT a "channel! It's a network of STATIONS transmitting on various channels across Japan. A "Station" is a large building housing studios, archive libraries, administration and sales offices as well as rooms to house video recording equipment and telecine playback equipment as well as the room housing the transmitter gear, while a "channel" has no physical presence anywhere. It is entirely ethereal and is only physically represented by the tuning circuitry in a typical TV set.

  617. Here in New South Wales, Australia a few years ago we had the "Opal" card introduced. The system involves putting a said amount of value onto the card, for instance, $10. If you hold a Pensioner Opal gold-coloured card, a trip to Sydney from Newcastle will cost $2.60 and you can "tap on" and "tap off" all day and not go over that initial charge. To "tap on" before your ride or "tap off" after the ride, you simply tap the card on a card reader at the station where you depart or arrive. There are also Opal readers on our buses, ferries and trams(at the moment only Sydney has a tram network but they stupidly call it "light rail", which it isn't because the lines are standard gauge). Full-fare riders, I'm not sure what they pay per trip, but the idea is still the same, tap on - tap off.
