Murder

[Newboomer]

More urban bullshit behaviour. Get out of town! I have multiple means of defense... including .45 ACP.

Been to Oz and loved it, but i live in the country with minimal regulations regarding self defense... and I am not leaving.

Open and concealed carry here in NV and most everyone has a knife of some kind on them. Lots of hardware in these parts.

Move to Mareeba, just steer clear of KFC on Thursdays when the old boys have spent the chicken money on booze and the ladies get a little upset. Still the only time and place I have seen a besser block used as a bludgeon.

Well that’s different

I had to look up his filmography to remember he was in Machete. I suppose I might see Under Siege, it's supposed to be his best and was well-received.

Under Siege is NOT worth it for Steven Segal. It IS worth it for Erika Eleniak. Fast forward to that part. There's no reason to see the rest.

Didn’t Steven Segal clean house with a sock full of nickels once?

The only thing that guys cleaned is his pantry.the guy has really let himself go to crap.

Today at around 8 I went to the Cairns central shopping Center to attack the ATM to extract. $$. I was surprised that I was the only one around - so I thought.
Just as I transacted and was taking my card out, I hear a hell of a argument.
I didn’t take much notice as the racket suddenly stopped.
I left the building and found out shortly thereafter there was a murder.
One man slashed the throat of the other.

I didn’t know for about it for a little time but yikes this event left me unsettled.
I was to be on a flight 14 December 2019. It turned out to be a fatal flight. Good thing I didn’t end up going on it.
Obviously I’m having an eventful life!

@Dr Ray
Don't buy any lotto tickets mate I think you have used all your luck up.

Cairns Central Shopping Center is right in downtown Cairns
A murder in daylight involving people who are/were unknown to each other.
I cannot fathom that because I heard them arguing and who carries a knife into a shopping Center???
Police have gone very quiet about it.

@Dr Ray
Now days with a lot of younger groups it's who doesn't carry a knife to any where

It’s not impossible but extremely unlikely for that to happen here. The largest town in my county has 4300 people. Lots of people have 300 win mags and 30-30s behind their seat, (myself including, also a Sig 226) In my life, 24 years, we had one prison escape, and one hold up at a gas station, that I can remember.
If I live somewhere else, you bet your boots I would carry.

Dr Ray and .455 Webley Greene,
Here you go. My collapsible baton (aka an ASP). Concealable, and you could beat a knife wielder back to Sydney or Melbourne (whichevers’ closer) with it! Ha! Ha! Ha!

[Dr Ray]

I still think criminals have all the rights and don’t you dare defend yourself.

 

[Bob Nelson 35Whelen]

Oh, some stores sell "Novelty Handcuffs"

I heard that somewherecan't verify it of course

@CBH Australia

I’m told there a some very sturdy change purses that double as blackjacks, of corse I wouldn’t know anything about that being Canadian.

@Skinnersblade
Now young Lawrence you shouldn't talk like that. You should know you should keep your change purse in your hand bag.
Ha ha ha ha ha
Bob

 

[Bob Nelson 35Whelen]

Just keep your change in your sock...

@WebleyGreene455
If you keep it in your sox it makes it hard to walk.

Oh, you know the ones I heard about.

As I said , I can't verify it.
Did someone say they come in colours? Not here I don't think.

Learning every day.

Mate, if you have caught a glimpse of the latest Flying Doctors TV series you will see your favourite pub.
Drag Karaoke, Drag Two -Up and Bloody Drag Queens in the final episode.
Not the Broken Hill culture I know.
Apparently there are a handful of Drag Queens here but , each to their own. Please do not get the idea it's the local culture

For anyone else out there. It's a good series.

Funny seeing local landmarks referred to as different places.

They were in that broken heel pack you sent. They still had the store name and price on them. That's why I thought you knew all about them.

@CBH Australia
have caught a few glimpses of it but didn't see Mario's tho. Luckily we know it's not a true representation of the Hill mate but others with less knowledge than us may see it differently.
That's life of entertainment my friend. Look what Prescilla Queen of the desert did for the town.
Chin up mate have a cup of tea put your tutu on and go and slap them with your handbag deary.

I thank God I am American and live in the Land of the Free!!! Nice to be a citizen and not a subject under a crown.

I have a question as why do Americans have to wait to take possession of a gun, and use FFL and such. I n Canada I can buy a gun and the post office delivers it to my door. Granted we don't get cool guns like the Americans, but if.we own a gun already we don't have to wait to get another.

Just seems silly

On the first question - lots of states do not require a waiting period to buy a firearm. I've never had to put up with a waiting period and (anti-gun laws in general) was one reason I turned down a transfer to California years ago. Our state governments do have some serious powers, however - not always a bad thing with the libs often in control of the federal part of our government.

On the post office delivery thing - the assassination of a president with a mail order rifle had a far reaching effect on that score.
