Brother, as you quoted me, I'll give you a quick reply.
I made no disparaging comment about PETA or Kirsty.
You sound like one of those perpetually offended woosies who scraped his knee at the kiddies playground and cried his little eyes out until his mummy made them take those nasty play things away.
Well Boo Fkn Hoo.
There, now I feel better. Thanks for that Brother.
ps. Kirsty Hetherington is also a pom. (but I didn't mention that)
Another whinging Pom. Take offence to that, twerp!

When I was a humble Metro F/O under training with Kendell way back in the 90's we were flying from Coober Pedy to Olympic Dam when an F/18 out of Woomera requested some formation flying practise on us. This was in the day of no radar, ADS-B or TCAS so we said sure go for it. The F/18 come up on our starboard wing then when he had satisfied himself went underneath and come up on our port wing. He then thanked us for our co-operation applied a fistful of thrust did a half roll and dived towards the red earth. Spectacular stuff, and in the days before mobiles and being too poor to afford a good compact 35mm only etched in the memory of those who were in the area. When the hairy leg hostie (me), went back to serve the sumptuous offering of fruit cake and orange juice to the pax the comment from one of the pax was, "Is he allowed to do that?" to which I replied, "Sir he is Airforce, he can do anything he wants!".

BTW doesn't PETA use trespass and intimidation to wage an ideological campaign against people conducting legitimate businesses?

You are quite wrong Mr Trent. Sadly, my mother died when I was a very young boy. My old man shipped me off to boarding school pretty soon after. I scraped my knees plenty of times both there and when in the ADF but I didn't go crying to anyone.

One of the greatest things about the ADF is that through going to different places, one sees and learns to support innocent victims of violence, oppression and cruelty, be they women, children or animals. One of not so good things about being in the Military is that one has to be prepared to fight for Australia, and that means everyone, there is no choice not to fight for those who are abusive and not nice people (like you).

We live in a free country where people like you, me and "Poms" like Kirsty can have their say. You should celebrate that, it might make you a nicer person.

And some text to satisfy the requirements

One of not so good things about being in the Military is that one has to be prepared to fight for America.

There, fixed that for you. :cool:

The sound of freedom :ok:
