General Discussion / Re: Am I the only one

« on: April 21, 2016, 09:24:52 pm »

One of the things that irks me the most is that anyone that questions Islam/Mosques or Refugees relationship with both is simply howled down as a racist.
If you suggest refugees are linked to terrorism "God help you", even though the only terrorist acts I can think of were committed by refugees or their families (obviously the mainstream press ignore this but I understand it's true.)
-The police stabbed in Melbourne
-The Lindt Cafe siege.
-Police employee shot to death as he walk out of his workplace.
In that terrorist attack, the weapon was supplied in the local Mosque.

None of this is secret, but it certainly seems glossed over.

Interesting side point.

Why is it that when a person of middle eastern descent commits a crime with a gun or a knife the media label it "Terrorism" or "Act of Terror", but when someone who is Caucasian does it they are called a "Gunman" or "Man weilding a knife" ??
Media hype??

Good point,
But research the % between the people that commit these crimes.
People of middle eastern appearance seem to be much higher in the %.
Dessert ninja's are breeding rapidly.
But,
The amount of scum walking our country of non middle eastern appearance is just as disturbing, There are not many people left that set a good example of "the Australian way" of any colour, race, etc.
The sad fact is that when one idiot roots another idiot, you get more idiots, and too many idiots are rooting each other.
What ever happened to respect, trust, loyalty, etc, just being a decent person?, irrespective of race, religion, beliefs?,  all gone now.
I am not religious at all, and have no problem with anyone who is, my belief is that every human has the right to believe in anything they wish, but do not have the right to force it on another.
Every day that I wake up, stand upright and breath air, it is a good day, and I just try to be a good person, be nice to others, and respect the earth that keeps me alive. Simple.
If you dont have 20 tattoo's, 10 nipple rings and can cage fight in the pub after 30 bundy's, you are not Aussie?
I really don't know if I want to be called Aussie anymore??
Cheers Al.

I don't see the point in debating this subject,
We already lost years ago, start learning the Quran.
Softcocks running the show bent over pre lubed,  instead of saying no when they should have years ago.

just putting the feelers out there to see if at all possible but is there anyone with a 1984 IT490L interested in swapping for a 1980 Honda CR250 R Moto X Fox replica garage queen.  Mine has Fox Forx, Fox Shox, PFR pipe, RC replica tank, KLP Fox replica swingarm, new wheels, complete spare motor, spare barrel and vforce from Eric Gorr in the States - excellent condition - I have not yet ridden it and in the condition it is probably wont.  I am chasing a Vinduro mount instead.

Drop me a line if there is anything out there - must be of similar quality.  I have seen a couple around recently but cannot find them now 

Feel free to tell me if you think I am losing my mind - I am aware of a couple who will 

cheers
 Pictures pretty please,
sounds like bike porn.

At the time, the bosses name was Clay, hornets make their nest in Clay.
He was a massive arse licker, the funniest part was that hey liked the name, but never worked out it's origin. haha.

I had a short ride on one of those at Barleigh Ranch about 20 years ago on the flat track, it was pretty fast.

Anyway, more to the point, I've now received three complaints about this topic

Isn't this site occupied by blokes that like dirt bikes, that should be able to debate stuff without crying.
Looks like tissue sales are on the rise.

Why would any Aussie send a cylinder overseas to be plated when there is a perfectly good business in Australia?

When the cost was less than half, and much better customer service, quality of work, advise and faster turn around.
But, that was when our dollar was a lot better,
I will still use them again if need be, they were excellent to deal with.

I would normally rather keep the money in oz, but Powerseal USA give perfect customer service, they are fast, and do 100% top notch work.
I have sent 2 cylinders to them, couldn't recommend any higher, a heap of mates have used them and all had the same experience.
