Yeah, her parents had posted a message about her being killed in an accident. I don’t know any more details than that. I know there were many people in shock about it.
Also don’t know what happened to Rhianne either. She just disappeared off the map.

The court in the Hague has just ruled that the curfew is unlawful because there is no emergency. :partying_face:
The lying politicians are now going to have a debate about it.
They better get rid of it ASAP, including all the other BS :axe:

Does the Court’s rulings carry any executive weight? I remember when the Hague ruled in favor of Nicaragua because the CIA had mined Managua Harbor which is the only deep water port in the country. The US was told to remove the mines. President Reagan said, “Make us.”

I just heard they came up with another emergency law so basically they just gave them the :fu:
It’s all bullshit, the system is rotten to the core :face_vomiting:

They got another judge to overturn the ruling, she looked like they released her from a madhouse.
They are now coming up with a new law to circumvent the unlawful decision and keep the curfew going, so my previous statement wasn’t entirely correct (yet)

What’s worse is that this government is outgoing. They were forced to step down as a result of another case that’s been dragging for years.
They stepped down as a sign of taking responsibility for that clusterfuck.

Basically for show, since the elections were going to be held in March anyway.
The PM got a lot of shit about it, stepped on his bike and signed himself up for the next elections.
Taking responsibility is what they call that.
He should not be allowed to be in office ever again.
Oh, stupid me, that is only for the plebs.

The fact is they are not allowed to make any laws in this situation, all they can do is keep the seat warm until the elections.
They don’t care and the majority of people don’t care either. To afraid to think clearly.
I doubt there will be any elections in March. Normally there are posters plastered everywhere and parties falling over each other to win the favour of the people.
Silence so far.

All of this of course makes me smile and smile and smile, sometimes I’m even :rofl: but I’m not sure if it’s from fun or severe bellyache.
Got to stay on topic here.
I promise I won’t pollute this topic any longer.

I found an old video of our PM, at least 6 years old where he gets a taste of his own medicine from Putin :rofl:

Ah shit, I just realized the subtitles are in Dutch.
Don’t worry, I’m sure @Guido_Possum can translate it perfectly :sunglasses:

Rutte accuses Russia of discriminating against homosexuals and how horrible that is.
Putin says he finds it hard to believe that a Russian judge would tolerate an organisation that advocated pedophilia like we have in our country.
My people would be marching in the streets and take up weapons to protest against something like that.
Likewise we do not have political parties who do not tolerate women in politics. :rofl: :boom: :fist_left:

Little detail here; Mark Rutte used to be the leader of the youth section of the VVD.
Under his leadership petitions went round to lobby for exceptions with regards to sex with minors.

Reminds me of my own plumber story, the guy who installed the dishwasher when the place was being built. Long after he was gone and I moved in, the entire first floor flooded. Why? Inspection showed that he ran out of copper tubing and ran the rest of the length with rubber hosing. Of course, after time the rubber turned brittle and burst. Don’t even ask how nuts I got trying to track down the general contractor, the plumber he hired and the lousy building inspector. I got one answer at least, from Boston Building Inspection. He said we don’t ask the plumber to pull out the dishwasher so we can see behind it. Omg, my hair was on fire! Everyone knows that building inspection happens in stages. I can’t believe he said that to me.
Sorry for your troubles, Session Drummer, but glad you got a good guy that helped you out.

Now for the smiley story of the day. After my condo neighbors took off for Florida, instead of leaving the snowblower accessible to clear our shared 300 ft driveway, he lends it out to a neighbor who breaks it. The nice story? My 2 neighbors Marie (84 yrs old) and Gerry (78 yrs old) shoveled my driveway and sidewalk after I left for work this morning. That tells me a lot.

Is your family related to my condo neighbors? They seem to be cut from the same cloth…passive-aggressive, hateful and underhanded.
