Although our politicians and the media are firmly behind the same sex marriage push, the margins between the Yes position and No are getting narrower:
http://www.breitbart.com/news/thousands-rally-in-support-of-australia-gay-marriage-as-polls-narrow/
Yes, one has to go to overseas sites to get any critical news, that is just how bad it is. One poll has 58.4 percent supporting gay marriage, but the numbers are falling, and can be made to fall more, if people stop sitting on their hands and get out there.

     Former Prime Minister John Howard, who will be remembered for his massive support of Asian immigration to Australia, has said that the legalisation of gay marriage will have substantial impacts on a range of issues, such as free speech and religion: The Weekend Australian, September 9-10, 2017. That is putting it mildly.  In an insightful, and indeed frightening article at https://www.spectator.com.au/2017/09/whats-changed-in-britain-since-same-sex-marriage/, David Sergeant says that there have been substantial changes to basic institutions:

     The Deep State hates private citizens having guns because it wants to have a passive population that are completely helpless and totally controlled. Return the Founding Fathers of America to this day, and they would condemn Australia in the strongest possible terms. They would find it hard to believe that an Anglo Saxon people have sunk so low. Have a read of this: https://www.buckeyefirearms.org/gun-quotations-founding-fathers:

“A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined...”
- George Washington, First Annual Address, to both House of Congress, January 8, 1790

     Before beginning this paper I need to make the legal disclaimer, that I am not a lawyer and am not offering legal advice, only my political opinion as a citizen. For legal advice, consult a legal practitioner. There, that’s out of the way.

     In this article I want to address an issue of concern by gun owners about the new firearm regulations, especially the new storage and security arrangements. The concern of many is that the tightening of the security arrangements is being done to squeeze gun ownership out of existence, rather than produce extra safety. The safe requirements are “over-the-top” and with CTTV and security firm arrangements, make homes into spaces more like prisons. Meanwhile, the streets of Australia are flooded with illegal guns in the hands of the gangs who are coming to rule the country:

     The issue of “white pathology,” has been discussed extensively at various sites, most notably the Occidental Observer.net:

     The basic idea here is that primarily Northern Europeans, and mainly the educated classes, act as if they are like insects that are manipulated by “zombie parasites,” who cause them to act contrary to group interests and survival:

     I have a strange sense of déjà vu (/ˌdeɪʒɑː ˈvuː/; French pronunciation: [deʒa vy]) from French, literally “already seen”), when writing this; have I done it before, or did I think that I did it before? Anyway, not to worry, because no one else will.

     Most of us men here are at that time of life when the prostate causes problems, even on a good day. To put it politely, it is like having a roof with a box gutter; you know at some point it will leak, and your house will be subjected to water damage. Even your prized comic book collection may get ruined, if things turn really bad. It can bury you, which is like the house collapsing, totally.

     I have always disliked American libertarianism, with its hyper-individualism, which morphs into a support of corporate capitalism. Now the libertarian Cato Institute has claimed in a Tweet that “Islamic teachings are consistent [with] many libertarian principles, such as tolerance, property rights & individualism.” They also praised Ibn Khaldūn (1332-1406) as a libertarian hero, describing him as “the most consistent of the many free-market economists in Islamic history,” even though Khaldūn promoted slavery:

“Therefore, the Negro nation are, as a rule, submissive to slavery, because [Negroes] have little [that is essentially] human and have attributes that are quite similar to those of dumb animals, as we have stated.” http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2017/09/07/cato-project-islam-consistent-libertarian-principles/

     Of course this is correct: https://journal-neo.org/2016/11/01/north-korea-is-an-pentagon-vassal-state/. Well, maybe not the use of “an” https://www.ecenglish.com/learnenglish/lessons/vowel-sounds-when-use-a-and-an:

“At this point it clearly is the case that under the erratic 32-year-old Swiss-educated Kim Jong Un, Washington has found the perfect boogie man to scare South Korea and Japan into embracing Washington’s agenda to maximize pressure, military as well as economic, against Russia and against China. James R. Lilley’s Davos remark to me is borne out by the recent militaristic and foreign policy actions of North Korean Supreme Commander, Jim Jong Un. It seems it wasn’t even necessary for the United States to “create North Korea.” Washington only had to cultivate the infantile personality of Kim Jong Un.”

     A recent article reports that race matters in dating, with most men allegedly wanting Asian women, and the majority of all females preferring White men: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2511049/Online-dating-app-reveals-race-matters-romance.html.

     The data is based on AYI use, which is the largest Facebook dating app, having over 70 million users. While most men preferred Asian women, Asian men did not, and it is claimed that men from all racial groups preferred women from races other than their own. This, of course, contradicts the claim that most men prefer Asian women, explicitly.

We received the following email today:

    Launched today in the wake of the High Court decision, TransgenderMarriageVote.com.au explains why there is a mismatch between the postal survey question and the bills put forward in parliament. 

     There are more than 50,000 jihadists now living in Europe, which is a real victory for multicultural diversity, exciting food, dancing, culture, “end racism now!” and anything else you would like to throw in the great cauldron of modernity:

“in an Aug. 31 interview with Spanish newspaper El Mundo, EU Counter-terrorism Coordinator Gilles de Kerchove estimated more than 50,000 jihadists are now living in Europe.
“Three years ago, it was easy to identify someone who has become radicalized,” de Kerchove told El Mundo. “Now, most fanatics disguise their convictions. We do not have exact figures, but it is not difficult to do approximate calculations. United Kingdom, it is not a secret, it has been published, it has 20,000. France, 17,000. Spain much less, but more than 5,000, I suppose. In Belgium almost 500 have gone to Syria and there are about 2,000 radicals or more. I would not venture to a specific figure, but tens of thousands, more than 50,000.”

     I don’t write as much as I used to, as age is getting to me. Fortunately over the years, I helped recruit other writers, most fitter than me. Soon, they too will face inevitable decline, and death. Death from the paper/computer disease of …sitting.

     Apparently there is an “ecosexual” movement, which advocates having “sex with the Earth,” to save it:
http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2017/09/06/uc-santa-cruz-professor-elizabeth-stephens-a-pioneer-in-the-ecosexual-movement-is-encouraging-the-public-to-engage-in-environmentalism-by-having-sex-with-the-earth/
As usual, there is an academic involved, UC Santa Cruz Professor Elizabeth Stephens, a pioneer in the “ecosexual” movement. Here is what another site said:

“We chatted with Annie Sprinkle, Ph.D., and Beth Stephens, Ph.D., performance artists, ecosexual experts, and the authors of ‘The Explorer’s Guide to Planet Orgasm’ to get the scoop on this trend. They describe being ecosexual as this: ‘you don’t look at the Earth as your mother, you look at it as your lover.’ You also experience nature ‘as sensual, erotic, or sexy.’ This could mean anything getting off while writhing around naked in the mud to simply getting joy out of doing it in a hot tub or going on a naked hike.”

     The papers have oodles of material about Lionel Murphy, based on documents which have just been released. The High Court judge, and former Whitlam government attorney-general, was looking to be the first Australian High Court judge to be forcibly removed from office.

     The allegations were extensive beyond even the charges of perverting the course of justice, from which he was acquitted, and include associations with a crime boss, receiving “sexual favours from women” i.e. prostitutes, supplied by the criminal connection, being a silent partner in an illegal brothel,  and so on. It would easily have been enough to sink him, but Murphy got lucky and begun to die from cancer, so the inquiry was called off in August 1986: The Australian, September 15, 2017, p. 1.

     The threat of same sex marriage, and the assault upon traditional institutions is arising at a time when Christianity is in rapid decline in the West. This issue has been commented upon before at this site, but there is more bad news, that you need to hear.

     White Christians are now a minority in the United States: http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_REL_SURVEY_WHITE_CHRISTIANS?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2017-09-06-06-46-35

     “It will be unlawful to vilify, intimidate or threaten to harm a person either because of views they hold on the survey or in relation to their religious conviction, sexual orientation, gender identity or intersex status,” a government spokesman said.
“That will be a sunset provision, it will only last for the period of the postal plebiscite.”

     The protections are similar to those already enacted in various state jurisdictions around Australia but do not currently exist at a Commonwealth level.
The laws, to be rushed through both chambers of Parliament by Thursday night, will apply to “conduct” during the campaign, which could include advertising, leaflet materials or behaviour.

Dear Reader,
This is interesting and shows you should never give up on your letter writing.
The following was sent to the Shepparton News on the 14th August 2017 and published today (13th September 2017) on the eve of the ‘postal ballot’.

To hear our Representatives trying to justify support for this issue whilst other important issues hurting their constituents are of little moment for them as they bicker and squabble among themselves worse than little children.
It is ‘adversarial politics’  at its worst as they try and confuse voters in their grab for Power. It is a very good reason to place the ‘sitting Member’ last next time you are required to vote.
In the meantime, voting negative in the plebiscite might keep the nasty wolf at bay a little longer.
Now it is up to you!

     In Europe, to protect the ethnics at the expense of native European populations, severe restrictions on free speech are imposed. While jihadists essentially are free to advocate what they desire, such as rape and genocide rhetoric, for Whites,  even “racist” memes now can land them in jail on terrorism charges, along with having copies of a book freely purchasable on amazon.com, according to this article: https://altright.com/2017/09/12/prisoners-of-conscience/.

     The migrant’s Pope has been at it again, this time turning his attention to Trump’s decision to wind down Obama’s crazy scheme which prevented some tens of thousands of illegals from deportation, saying that the decision is not “pro-life,” and young people should not be torn from their roots. Ok, well they should not have been illegals in the first place if they were so concerned about “roots,” and not jumping queues  to serve their selfish economic benefit.

     Behind all of this, though, is economic gain to the Catholic Church, with the Church getting an enormous amount of money for refugee resettlement. As Steve Bannon has said:

     Believe it or not, there are gays who oppose same sex marriage:

    The same sex vote has been pushed as merely doing the right thing for “equality,” just as the Aboriginal referendum is so pushed. But, there are less than hidden consequences, as the article above notes:

“This Marriage Bill seeks to enshrine Gender Theory into the Marriage Act. You may think there are two genders but actually, there are around 112.
Here are a few (list available at Tumblr):

     Ethologist/psychologist, John Calhoun (1917-1995), conducted an experiment with a population of mice, to test the effects of overpopulation and crowding, where food resources were not the limiting factor for growth:
J. Calhoun, “Population Density and Social Pathology,” Scientific American, vol. 206, 1962, pp. 139-148.
He had an area which would permit 3,840 mice to feed and survive. However, he observed that as mice numbers grew, a breakdown in social structure happened, with an increased killing of young, copious quantities of mouse homosexual behaviour, and a rapid rise in the level of aggression. The population crashed and headed to extinction:

“Many [female rats] were unable to carry pregnancy to full term or to survive delivery of their litters if they did. An even greater number, after successfully giving birth, fell short in their maternal functions. Among the males, the behavior disturbances ranged from sexual deviation to cannibalism and from frenetic overactivity to a pathological withdrawal from which individuals would emerge to eat, drink and move about only when other members of the community were asleep. The social organization of the animals showed equal disruption. ...
The common source of these disturbances became most dramatically apparent in the populations of our first series of three experiments, in which we observed the development of what we called a behavioral sink. The animals would crowd together in greatest number in one of the four interconnecting pens in which the colony was maintained. As many as 60 of the 80 rats in each experimental population would assemble in one pen during periods of feeding. Individual rats would rarely eat except in the company of other rats. As a result extreme population densities developed in the pen adopted for eating, leaving the others with sparse populations.
... In the experiments in which the behavioral sink developed, infant mortality ran as high as 96 percent among the most disoriented groups in the population.”
J. Calhoun, “Population Density and Social pathology,” California Medicine, vol. 113, 1970, p. 54.
