Mon 15th November 2021 Current Affairs

My name is David Daniel Ball and I am Voice DDB dot locals dot com a voice of freedom supporting freedom around the world for all peoples. I write on historical and current affairs. I look for the conservative voice where mainstream media eschews it. Around the world media espouses liberalism orthodoxy and proclaims a history of liberalism that never happened. Liberalism of today is based on repeated lies that have been accepted from the past.

Consider these recent truths

There is hope. Today we have the gloomy subject matter of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, nearing an end, and, the ongoing Presidency of Joe Biden, and, the ongoing corruption of the FBI. And yet there is hope.

This week saw the defense mistake of placing Rittenhouse on the stand and giving a corrupt Prosecution carte blanche to lie. A desperate, exposed judge fought valiantly to preserve justice while Rittenhouse was betrayed by those charged to defend him, and denounced by those charged with upholding justice denied Rittenhouse. Along the way, we heard the Presidential candidate Joe Biden call Rittenhouse a white supremacist. We discovered the riot which forced Rittenhouse to act in self defence was a machination of the FBI to facilitate a coup which was part of the 2020 election fraud. What did Biden achieve by calling Rittenhouse a white supremacist? What did the FBI achieve by facilitating a murderous riot?

The press have not told you. They largely, have not reported on aspects of the Rittenhouse trial shown publicly. Rittenhouse acted in self defence. Three times he needed to apply deadly force that night, before he managed to secure safety from a local police armed response group acting as neutral observers. A longstanding Democrat, the local mayor has been among those persecuting Rittenhouse who prevented rioters from setting fire to a gas station and blowing up a neighbourhood. We saw Rittenhouse attacked thanks in part to FBI surveillance which seemed to be keeping tabs on their operatives running amok. Rittenhouse was kicked in the face and he did not kill the unidentified assailant. Rittenhouse was assaulted and a now dead man tried to take Rittenhouse’ gun. The chief persecutor asked why Rittenhouse brought a gun, saying it was merely to kill rioters. One guesses that that is what the persecutor would have done. Rittenhouse used it to defend his life from those who charged and assailed him. One assailant, who survived because Rittenhouse is not some mere killer, charged Rittenhouse and raised his gun to him before Rittenhouse shot him, disabling him from killing Rittenhouse.That surviving assailant has demanded ten million dollars for his testimony. Following his testimony, mainstream media lauded him and wrote of his resilience and interviewed him as a victim and survivor.

Those who know Rittenhouse is innocent of murder through self defence can see that that is the fact, in the trial. But, what of those who believe Rittenhouse is a white supremacist who brought a gun to a ‘peaceful’ riot? The chief persecutor is sticking to script. By ignoring law and focusing what divides Americans, the persecutor is merely doing the job given him by the likes of Joe Biden . Biden did not call Rittenhouse a white supremacist because Rittenhouse is racist. Rittenhouse is not racist. Biden is racist, but that is not the reason for the policy statement. A narrative is being painted to convince actual racists that Rittenhouse should be persecuted. And, we saw on the stand a lone, undefended boy, having a panic attack as bothe his defence and the persecutor publicly assailed and denied him succour. Rittenhouse is innocent, but he may still be convicted by jury. He is still fighting for his life.

Some are saying Joe Biden is the worst President ever. It is not a competition. Biden is mounting a strong argument for the accolade, and he is not yet done. But, an unseemly parade of awful precedes him. What of the claims of Johnson who ended reconstruction and established resistance to freedom through the KKK? What of person who facilitated modern poverty and inequity through their new deal, exploiting Americans by race and gifting them single, unemployed parents? What of the guy who nuked a civilian population twice? What of the guy who restarted a cold war to solve the policy vacuum created by their poor foreign policy?

Some are saying the FBI must be disbanded because they facilitated a violent coup. But then, what was Watergate? Why was Weather Underground protected by the FBI? What is the FBI’s role in the drug distribution networks and the faux arms management crises that sees cities like Boston and Detroit vie for the epithet ‘murder capitals.’?

Biden looks awful because Trump is so good. But also Carter and Reagan played similar roles. I liken the problem with fighting the Devil. Don’t do it. In fighting the Devil, one may well dance to the Devil’s tune. Instead, hold to the Lord. The Lord has already defeated the Devil, and the only future the Devil has is in a black pit of despair, eternally separated from God. But, that is not your future if you hold to the Lord.

We have hope. It is incumbent on us to win back the freedom denied us. And to protect that freedom. We will do that democratically. We will take back our legislature. We will get our courts to return to protecting our constitution.

I have lost everything several times. And yet here I am. Behind me is an Australian flag and a MAGA cap. On my MAGA cap is an American flag. I will die, one day. But, I pledge allegiance to the flag (of Australia and) the United States of America. And to the republics for which they stand. One nation. Indivisible. Under God. With liberty, and justice, for all.

We are being lied to. But not by everyone. Our nations and their justice machinery are not broken, but damaged. Things are bad, but they are supposed to be bad, rather than merely breaking. We can't give up. We must reject the liars, and remove them from public office, and prosecute them lawfully. Things can get better, but we must persevere or risk losing hope. We must not fight the Devil by playing the Devil's game. Rather we must resist the Devil by being free. There is no law against doing what is right. Their utter depravity kills us. They target us and they seek to restrain us. But while the greatest among us a hundred years ago has died, their legacy has not. That which we are, we are. Lockdowns were ineffective in dealing with COVID. Effective medication has been denied whole populations. Herd immunity will prevail. Fraud deleteriously affected recent elections around the world. But, Democracy will prevail. Our oppressors will pass. For us to win, we must assert our freedoms. For us to lose, we must willingly surrender our freedoms forever. Our children will have to pay back our debt. We must sacrifice now so that they can. That means telling truth to power. That means pointing up when when some get confused and lose their way. Stand by the one who sacrificed their pension and freedoms to speak out. Prosecute the ones forgiven by a debauched and self interested administration. Vote for those who help you exercise your freedom. Don't wait for free speech. Exercise free speech.

Intro to Locals.com

My name is David Daniel Ball I'm a teacher with three decades experience teaching math to high school kids.I also work with first graders and kids in between first grade and high school. I know the legends of why Hypatia's dad is remembered through his contribution to Math theory. And I know the legend of why followers of Godel had thought he had disproved God's existence. 

I'm not a preacher, but I am a Christian who has written over 28 books all of which include some reference to my faith. Twelve blog books on world history and current affairs, detailing world events , births and marriages on each day of the year, organised by month. Twelve books on the background to and history of Bible Quotes. One Bible quote per day for a year. An intro to a science fiction series I'm planning, post apocalyptic cyber punk. An autobiography with short story collections. 

I'm known in Australia for my failure as a whistleblower over the negligence death of a school boy. I had reported the issue responsibly and had not known I'd blown the whistle. The embarrassed left wing government had responded by imposition of a nationwide ban on the use of peanut butter in canteens, despite failing to address the issue of peanut allergy appropriately. 

I've been de-platformed on Facebook and twitter despite not being an activist. Twitter did not like me asking for Obama to face justice in 2011. FB gave no specific reason for removing me following Jan 6th 2021 in Washington DC where a policeman killed an unarmed woman, so a crowd would know he was in control.

From the Bible, Hebrews 10:19-39

A Call to Persevere in Faith

Therefore, brothers and sisters, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body, and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God. Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. How much more severely do you think someone deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified them, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace? For we know him who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” and again, “The Lord will judge his people.” It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

Remember those earlier days after you had received the light, when you endured in a great conflict full of suffering. Sometimes you were publicly exposed to insult and persecution; at other times you stood side by side with those who were so treated. You suffered along with those in prison and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, because you knew that you yourselves had better and lasting possessions. So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.

You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. For,

“In just a little while,
    he who is coming will come
    and will not delay.”

And,

“But my righteous one will live by faith.
    And I take no pleasure
    in the one who shrinks back.”

But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.

Here is a video I made "I Will"
"I Will" is a song by The Beatles that was released on The Beatles. It was written by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon/McCartney) and features him on lead vocal, guitar, and "vocal bass".

=== From 2020 ===
Media is cheering expected partisan court decisions to not support inquiry into voting fraud. However, they overstate the meaning of the shortfalls. The Trump campaign to have their electoral win restored was never going to be straightforward. They have the evidence. It points to multiple elections and undermines the credibility of US Democracy. Ultimately, aspects of it will be decided by SCOTUS. We do not yet know how SCOTUS will decide, or even what exact evidence they will face. But we know the evidence is substantial, and in an effort to suppress the will of conservative resistance, media are claiming that the evidence is not substantive and so the evidence is yet to be addressed. Maybe there is a good reason for a CIA asset being deployed to fraudulently control the US election. Let us hear what it is.

It is apparent that Dems committed fraud to steal the 2020 election. They may well have done similar in 2016. In 2016, Fox declared Pennsylvania early to HRC. The demand was made for Trump to concede. Trump won in 2016, but it surprised the establishment that did similar in their voter suppression as they have done in 2020. HRC had organised a victory party, but blessed marching vagina instead. Even her book did not say what happened. Trump has been very good at mobilising ordinary, decent Americans to support him in numbers greater than any GOP ever. Trump does not court race, or gender, like his racist, bigoted opposition have. Yet Trump has extraordinary minority support for a GOP, possibly the highest since Eleanor Roosevelt courted the Black vote as her husband exploited them. The Dem voting pattern and issues echo the Obama wins too. How long have Dems been using these fraudulent methods to obtain votes? Did they use them to bodgy the 2006 mid terms? It is not that the mysterious support of vapour for Dems is so clearly fraudulent, but, other than violent rioters, and #FakeNews, where is their support, really? How come there is no policy platform for Democrats? Why does Big Tech have to censor the truth? How many millions of Trump supporting votes have been given to Biden? The corruption is so apparent, and so pervasive, that if Trump concedes 2020, he will be conceding all elections that follow, and the flame of liberty will be extinguished in America.

Jesus at The Pearly Gates.
Jesus was standing in for St Peter at the Pearly Gates when an old man shuffles up. Jesus goes through the standard entry procedures:

"Name?" says Jesus.
"Joseph" says the old man.

"Occupation?" asks Jesus
"Carpenter" replied the old man.

"Family - Any children?" continues Jesus.
"I once had a son" answers the man.

"Describe him" says Jesus
"Well", said the old man, "He was a bit strange and childlike - and he had nails in his hands and feet".

Jesus looked closely at the old man who peered back at Jesus and asked: "Pinnochio?"

Don't give up on hope. After a brutal campaign where 'No' campaigners were tarred with the brush of bigotry and violently silenced by radical 'Yes' campaigners, the results are in. It pays to be abusive. It pays to prevent debate or discussion. If one has wealthy and powerful friends, one can have anything. Absurdly, SSM advocates have won the right to have professionals bake and decorate cakes for SSM couples. Civil unions will continue to recognise same sex couples. Soon, depending on legislation, some same sex couples may get married in some churches, but the legislation was not part of the plebiscite. So, the ALP may choose to oppose variants of SSM legislation on any pretext. But the crowning achievement of the 'vote' is that Turnbull may at last leave parliament and claim he achieved something like Rudd's sorry. 

Dan Andrews has published marching vaginas thoughts should the vote have been 'no.' Not Kennedy in thrust. Getting mad and getting even is inappropriate. When all that was required, which had not been done, was to argue a case. Because the 'vote' was not free and fair, the result is illegitimate. Although every state and territory voted for SSM, and 61% was the national count from 80% of respondents. The Turnbull effect is about -6% from awful campaigning as the initial surveys had 67% in favour. The illegitimacy is not from the margin, but from the campaign which prevented debate, shut down the 'no' campaign and was unfair regarding corporate support in partisan pursuit of a 'yes' vote. The largest opposition to SSM was from ALP electorates. Upside with James Patterson's proposed legislation which even has a clause allowing parents to opt their children out of Safe Schools indoctrination. Truly the Liberals are the party which respects individuals, promotes freedom in a just and fair society, while the ALP is about unleashing corruption.


Tim Wilson may choose to marry his partner. I wish them joy.

Zimbabwe and Myanmar are each in turmoil owing to their strong reliance on their armies to run government. Secular administration is preferable to religious ones, including the religion of socialist ideals. The corrupt and genocidal Mugabe is being protected by his army. Myanmar is not being entirely run by a civil administration, and Myanmar's army may be involved with indiscriminate killings of Muslims.

Jim Molan is a senator now that Fiona Nash has been declared a dual citizen and Nash's replacement was declared unfit for being employed in public service at the same time as being a senator. Molan is a great senate choice. 
=== from 2016 ===
IPA Review (Nov 2016) features a Darcy Allen and Daniel Wild article “Toxic Greens” about the cost of green red tape. It costs Australia billions of dollars each year. It takes money from the poorest of the land and ruins business and prevents international business from coming to Australia. Greater Dandenong Council oversaw an increase of 30% in crime rates in the life cycle of the last council. Local councils are not responsible for policing, but they play a role in which policing can be more effective. By allowing local business to have flexible work hours, local business can employ more youths and so the source of crime dries up. Instead, a Greens dominated council pulled stunts in the name of opposing “Overdevelopment” like when they, as their final act before election, blocked nearly a hundred medium density homes from being built in a medium density housing zone. Some businesses will have bought land and planned for these buildings at a substantial cost, possibly $ten million, and have nothing to show for it. It means that the cost of business is high and small holders can be ruined. For no benefit to the community. 

Following the last election, 3AW interviewed a Greens Mayor of a local council. Neil Mitchell asked about anti semitism of Greens and also about their apparent popularity. The Green Mayor claimed Greens were not anti semitic, they just supported trade sanctions against Israel. Then he went on to claim the popularity of Greens was related to the appalling actions and claims of conservatives. I took exception to that because I have Jewish ancestry and support Israel, but also, I was (in my ward, and I believe in others too) the only candidate for Greater Dandenong Council to explicitly state that I was a conservative, and my platform made none of the claims that Mayor made. I’m aware of a few candidates in adjacent wards who are conservatives. I understand none were elected. 3AW would not allow me a reply. 

But that is not what the article is about, but the big business, big picture side of things. Lawfare is used to prevent businesses from working. So that a viable business never begins, even if it clears the legal hurdles, because the process of overcoming impediments is as obstructive as a successful cease and desist order. Only it isn’t for environmental reasons. It is only to prevent business. So a mining company may have tens of thousands of legal obstructions to be faced before it can begin trade. Similarly, farmers are not allowed to work their own land. ALP are obstructing reform, but worse, Turnbull seems reticent to even pursue reform. Turnbull has done a dud deal regarding the US and Nauru. Only Turnbull can’t back out of the bad deal. Maybe, on the shiny side of the cloud, Turnbull and Bishop will be rolled, so we can roll back the Green Red Tape too.
=== from 2015 ===
The French President has declared war against the terrorists who were already fighting one. A day after Obama declared success against ISIL he has claimed the problem is insoluble. Bernie Sanders, Presidential hopeful, has stood up and declared that Global Warming drives terrorism. Many who listen to him nod in agreement without examining the logic. ABC Insiders Lenore Taylor thinks it is good Mr Abbott is no longer PM because he spoke the truth to Europeans that strong borders are the only compassionate, fair way of treating refugees. Strong borders means refugees from camps have hope of placement. Strong borders means that fewer economic migrants are fleeced by people smugglers, and drowned or stranded. Strong borders mean the empty promises of left wing extremists for compassion being open borders are seen to be empty. As are empty threats from impotent left wing leaders. People have died so Hollande can seem compassionate, and so Hollande can seem strong. Meanwhile Canada's new PM hides behind Bernie Sanders. 

For some, at the moment, the Sex Party has more credibility.
From 2014 
Corruption must be fought
Victoria's ALP leader's staff have warned that Daniel Andrews is too close to developers. He is also too close to the CFMEU. Voters should not have the choice of voting for the avowedly corrupt. ALP in Victoria is unreformed. It is the same party as which campaigned on not knocking down houses for a free way, but which knocked down houses for a free way with a set of lights, calling it a motor way instead. It is the same party which tries to profit from domestic crime. The same party which drowns desperate asylum seekers because it is more compassionate than allowing in genuine refugees. The same party which built an expensive desalination plant, but not a dam. The same party which burnt much of the country by refusing back burning. 
ABC fighting reason
Economic issues regarding growth world wide are challenging. Socialist governments in the US, France, Italy and China threaten world prosperity through poor economic policy. The free trade agreement with China is great, but the planned nature of the Chinese economy is restrictive. Italy's socialist government has taken on the compassionate drowning that marked the ALP's migration policy. France is struggling since her war on rich people. US is only beginning to awaken from a Democrat led torpor. In Australia, the ABC begs for politicians to slam on the breaks and limit growth by taxing the air people breathe and the food plants need to grow. Worse, the ABC recently admitted it lied to Australia in a comedy skit aired during a current affairs program. It claimed Mr Abbott had not talked with Mr Putin on the serious issue of MH17 when it knew he had, effectively. 

The small cuts to the SBS and ABC seems to be offset by Mr Turnbull allowing them to advertise in prime time, sucking dollars away from commercial networks. They are far larger than any of the commercial networks by regulation preventing cross media ownership. 
Who let the dogs out? 
Some Palmer United Party PUPs are still loyal to a fault. Palmer outrageously arranged for an inquiry into the Queensland Newman government as a fishing expedition ahead of an election. Newman's government has done nothing wrong. However the review has backfired and now questions are to be asked of Palmer, if PUP Lazarus ever stops blocking the questions. Meanwhile Lambie is acting as an independent under the PUP name, as legal advice is taken as to PUP being able to vacate her position and employ someone else. Meanwhile Dio Wang, a WA PUP, remains loyal to Palmer by commenting sensibly on Queen Lambie. 
Random stuff
Sixteen years is the length of a pause in global warming, but a recent decline of two years is being hidden by activists at the G20.

One ALP member, Joe Bullock, is opposing the party line in opposing a republic for Australia. Only one member. The ALP as a modern democratic party is dead.

Putin explains the four defence ships off the Australian coastline are testing their range in case they do AGW research in Antarctica. Lol. 
From 2013
I believe the reason for Rudd's sudden departure is entirely because of an unforeseeable event. I won't explicitly state it, but it has to do with accusations and leadership. Were Rudd to stay, it might be interpreted that he caused the allegation to come into being. Even if Rudd hasn't, he can't prove it because of past behaviour. He would be treated worse than Mal Colston.

Rudd's agenda is driven by fear. It may be irrational fear, but still paralysing. 
Mundine used to be an atheist, but he found Islam. Now mysteriously, his place has been firebombed. No one knows why. No one even guesses a reason. A bit like Rudd leaving the parliament. However, there is an excuse, given by an Australian, Uthman Badar, who says ASIO is at fault for investigating .. Presbyterians (?). ABC is primed and ready to blame Mr Abbott, and Mr Turnbull should he succeed him before Christmas. 

ALP believe in foreign aid. It is important and many people are reliant on it for their livelihoods .. like ALP campaign workers. Latham isn't sure. But he thinks it is a bad thing if Rudd did it. Sixty five of three hundred pedophiles recently arrested are Australian. Some in professions entrusted with the care of children. No word yet as to how many were in the ALP. On that issue alone, journalists are begging not to be told.
Historical perspective on this day
In 565, Justin II succeeded his uncle Justinian I as emperor of the Byzantine Empire. In 655, Battle of the Winwaed: Penda of Mercia was defeated by Oswiu of Northumbria.

Today's reading: Lamentations 3-5, Hebrews 10:19-39 (NIV)

View today's reading on Bible Gateway

Today's Old Testament reading: Lamentations 3-5

1 I am the man who has seen affliction
by the rod of the LORD’s wrath.
2 He has driven me away and made me walk
in darkness rather than light;
3 indeed, he has turned his hand against me
again and again, all day long.
4 He has made my skin and my flesh grow old
and has broken my bones.
5 He has besieged me and surrounded me
with bitterness and hardship.
6 He has made me dwell in darkness
like those long dead.
7 He has walled me in so I cannot escape;
he has weighed me down with chains.
8 Even when I call out or cry for help,
he shuts out my prayer.
9 He has barred my way with blocks of stone;
he has made my paths crooked....

Today's New Testament reading: Hebrews 10:19-39


A Call to Persevere in Faith
19 Therefore, brothers and sisters, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body, 21 and since we have a great priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. 23 Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. 24 And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, 25 not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching....

Morning


"I will cut off them that worship and that swear by the Lord, and that swear by Malcham."
Zephaniah 1:5
Such persons thought themselves safe because they were with both parties: they went with the followers of Jehovah, and bowed at the same time to Malcham. But duplicity is abominable with God, and hypocrisy his soul hateth. The idolater who distinctly gives himself to his false god, has one sin less than he who brings his polluted and detestable sacrifice unto the temple of the Lord, while his heart is with the world and the sins thereof. To hold with the hare and run with the hounds, is a dastard's policy. In the common matters of daily life, a double- minded man is despised, but in religion he is loathsome to the last degree. The penalty pronounced in the verse before us is terrible, but it is well deserved; for how should divine justice spare the sinner, who knows the right, approves it, and professes to follow it, and all the while loves the evil, and gives it dominion in his heart?
My soul, search thyself this morning, and see whether thou art guilty of double-dealing. Thou professest to be a follower of Jesus--dost thou truly love him? Is thy heart right with God? Art thou of the family of old Father Honest, or art thou a relative of Mr. By-ends? A name to live is of little value if I be indeed dead in trespasses and sins. To have one foot on the land of truth, and another on the sea of falsehood, will involve a terrible fall and a total ruin. Christ will be all or nothing. God fills the whole universe, and hence there is no room for another god; if, then, he reigns in my heart, there will be no space for another reigning power. Do I rest alone on Jesus crucified, and live alone for him? Is it my desire to do so? Is my heart set upon so doing? If so, blessed be the mighty grace which has led me to salvation; and if not so, O Lord, pardon my sad offence, and unite my heart to fear thy name.

Evening


"And Laban said, It must not be so done in our country, to give the younger before the firstborn."
Genesis 29:26
We do not excuse Laban for his dishonesty, but we scruple not to learn from the custom which he quoted as his excuse. There are some things which must be taken in order, and if we would win the second we must secure the first. The second may be the more lovely in our eyes, but the rule of the heavenly country must stand, and the elder must be married first. For instance, many men desire the beautiful and well-favoured Rachel of joy and peace in believing, but they must first be wedded to the tender-eyed Leah of repentance. Every one falls in love with happiness, and many would cheerfully serve twice seven years to enjoy it, but according to the rule of the Lord's kingdom, the Leah of real holiness must be beloved of our soul before the Rachel of true happiness can be attained. Heaven stands not first but second, and only by persevering to the end can we win a portion in it. The cross must be carried before the crown can be worn. We must follow our Lord in his humiliation, or we shall never rest with him in glory.
My soul, what sayest thou, art thou so vain as to hope to break through the heavenly rule? Dost thou hope for reward without labour, or honour without toil? Dismiss the idle expectation, and be content to take the ill-favoured things for the sake of the sweet love of Jesus, which will recompense thee for all. In such a spirit, labouring and suffering, thou wilt find bitters grow sweet, and hard things easy. Like Jacob, thy years of service will seem unto thee but a few days for the love thou hast to Jesus; and when the dear hour of the wedding feast shall come, all thy toils shall be as though they had never been--an hour with Jesus will make up for ages of pain and labour.
Jesus, to win thyself so fair,
Thy cross I will with gladness bear:
Since so the rules of heaven ordain,

The first I'll wed the next to gain.

=== Message ===

===

I am a decent man and don't care for the abuse given me. I created a video raising awareness of anti police feeling among western communities. I chose the senseless killing of Nicola Cotton, a Louisiana policewoman who joined post Katrina, to highlight the issue. I did this in order to get an income after having been illegally blacklisted from work in NSW for being a whistleblower. I have not done anything wrong. Local council appointees refused to endorse my work, so I did it for free. Youtube's Adsence refused to allow me to profit from their marketing it. Meanwhile, I am hostage to abysmal political leadership and hopeless journalists. My shopfront has opened on Facebook.

I am publishing a book called Bread of Life: January.

Bread of Life is a daily bible quote with a layman's understanding of the meaning. I give one quote for each day, and also a series of personal stories illustrating key concepts eg Who is God? What is a miracle? Why is there tragedy?


January is the first of the anticipated year-long work of thirteen books. One for each month and the whole year. It costs to publish. It (Kindle version) should retail at about $2US online, but the paperback version would cost more, according to production cost.If you have a heart for giving, I fundraise at gofund.me/27tkwuc (Gofundme finished the fund raiser, 2017)

Editorials will appear in the "History in a Year by the Conservative Voice" series, starting with August, September, October, or at Amazon http://www.amazon.com/dp/1482020262/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_dVHPub0MQKDZ4 The kindle version is cheaper, but the soft back version allows a free kindle version.
