    My guess is that he wanted to make a quick buck, but seriously how much did he think he was going to make?

    Totally agreed. I think I may have misread your post about people walking on footpaths. My bad.

    In Dunedin, I've found walking on the streets near my home (when I am home and not working) is safer than walking on the footpath. Much less traffic of all kinds. I go up and down a few local deserted street hills on my push bike. I avoid the crowds and busy times. And there's quite a few walkways in my area that suit the requirements of lockdown well.

    Are you high? Seriously? That rebuttal has absolutely nothing to do with anything I've said.

    Talk to my Kids about Suicide - Sure, one day, when they are old enough to understand, like say hitting double digits.

    Point is, Mental health in this country has an abysmal track record. I'm pointing out that for some people 'getting away for a bit' - be that going for a Bush Walk, going Surfing, Even going for a simple Drive - is part of their way to manage their Mental health and keep themselves in check. All of those activities can easily be done in a way as to not violate 'social distancing' - and yet they aren't allowed, the reasons given as to why they aren't don't stack up with what is required. It is on that basis that the Policy and the Police should be questioned.

    And then you come along with your 'Mental Health is overrated' - which (considering NZ's woeful track record) is just asinine at best and downright cunty at worst.

    Food for thought

    With fast food no longer available nor the slightly more upmarket actual food that's dressed with sauce and flavour combinations that dance like a dervil on yer tongue that's been crafted lovingly by someone who can cook, and with people still hungry and homeless, the only option available to some is to cull the herds so that space can be made for the next years food? We can't handle an abundance of food lol.
    I didn't think!!! I experimented!!!

    YOU mentioned the high suicide rate. Not ALL mental health suffers are suicidal.

    Unless it is YOU having mental health issues ... STAY THE FUCK AT HOME ... (and you said it was for YOUR mental health)

    Social distancing is not the only reason some of those activities are not allowed. Risk of accidental need for rescue or assistance is. Putting others at risk.

    He knows all that, but just feels a need to post obvious stuff. Good for his mental health.

    Judging by the stuff he posts ... his mental health has suffered ... Quite some time ago. Or the rules don't apply to him.



    Interestingly ... the known mental health sufferer's are staying home. And happily taking their (extra) medication.

    Go figure ...
