    being called a loser would be insulting if it were coming from an upstanding person with a degree of intelligence above that of an amoeba
    oops

    2 out of 4 of your posts are abusive. That's 50% right?

    Thousands do every week and all we do is bury our heads in the sand and use immigration as the answer to the dwindling supply of productive individuals.

    I just spent a week in Aus catching up with friends who have emmigrated. ALL of them are far happier over there. Sure there are some negatives but the positives outweigh them.

    Eg: A women climbed over a railing and fell from a bridge recently. Hurt herself so tried to get compo. The court told her that it served her right for being a dumbarse, next please. Could you see that happening here???? There'd be ACC, OSH audits, 6ft high safety barriers etc etc etc.

    So, yes thank you I am seriously considering pissing the fuck off as you so eloquently phrase it.

    New Zealand is a shithole, full of small minded people who think that everything is the governments fault, and anything they don't like should just be banned, regulated, licenced or taxed.

    But we don't fuck off, we stay and try and change things, for some reason we still think the place has potential.
    David must play fair with the other kids, even the idiots.

    "Deputy Coe first noticed Gerald Abney when the motorcycle driven by Abney crossed a double yellow line to pass a vehicle on a curve at an estimated ten
    to fifteen miles per hour above the speed limit. Diane Davis, who
    drove the front vehicle in a line of three or four vehicles passed by
    Abney, testified that she was "literally scared to death"; "thought
    [Abney] was going to hit [her]"; and "felt in danger."

    "Deputy Coe turned on his blue flashing lights and siren — to no
    avail. Abney did not stop. Instead, he led Coe on an eight mile chase
    during the course of which he committed numerous dangerous traffic
    violations. Abney, for example, illegally passed vehicles by crossing
    double yellow lines on no less than five occasions — many of which
    involved speed, sharp curves, or both. On one occasion, Abney ran
    Thomas and Dorothy White off the road when he took a curve in the
    wrong lane of traffic. Ms. White testified that her husband "jerked the
    car and ran off the road. And I looked up, and there was a motorcycle
    on our side of the road." While plaintiff argues that Deputy Coe did
    not actually see Abney run the Whites off the road, the incident amply
    confirms Coe’s assessment of the nature and risks to others posed by
    Abney’s conduct.
    Even the Green Farm Road collision between Abney’s motorcycle
    and Deputy Coe’s patrol car did not stop Abney. He instead continued
    to flee, running two stop signs. At the first, Abney not only refused
    ABNEY v. COE 7
    to stop but also illegally passed a vehicle that was stopped at the sign.
    The driver of the vehicle, Linda Flecken, testified that, while she was
    stopped "a motorcycle c[a]me flying around [her], cross[ed] the yellow
    line, into the other lane of traffic, [and] pulled out." At the second
    stop sign, other witnesses testified that Abney pulled "straight into"
    traffic, causing several vehicles to slow down quickly. When Deputy
    Rozier attempted to stop Abney by placing his vehicle and his person
    directly in front of the motorcycle, Abney again refused to pull over.
    Instead, Abney swerved around Deputy Rozier and sped away."

    Add to this that he was on Speed.

    So what was the police to do? Allow him to carry on and maybe kill someone innocent, or try to stop him???

    Glad I did not have to make that decision...

    May the bridges I burn light the way.

    If passing cars at <88 km/hr,constitutes endangering everyone elses lives,then there are a lot of filterers in NZ who should be executed.

    Crappiest logic ever


    And the bint who testified that she was "literally scared to death";
    I know forensics are getting pretty advanced, but have they really got to the point where the can have a deceased person testify in court?
    Did her car run off the road after she died?
