"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." -- C. S. Lewis.

@andrewstevenson118 My best ever holiday was a trip to NZ - mainly south island, but also Wellington - for a wedding of a guy we befriended over here in the Isle of Man, a Kiwi who joined our cricket club. And his best friend from school is Stephen Fleming, who we went out with one night. Fantastic trip, memorable. I’d recommend Bradbury, and I loved his short stories, if you can get hold of a copy - just great stories. I’m not sure why he receives hate.

[@TheDiamond2009]

@fredgarvin1952 I’ve been tracking this on another device with my own posts. There seems to be a disruptive element to it, in order to stifle exchanges, to cut out legitimate and accurate responses to inaccurate statements. The reason for that is obvious, and it only ever goes one way. I’ve also noticed that an awful lot of comments that are demonstrably true, which are proven, but which run against the narrative, are shadowed. They don’t want their viewers to see fact-based statements. As someone one said, it’s not misinformation they want to censor, it’s the truth that they fear. I wonder if this gets through?!

Angie should take some time viewing the thousands of police body camera videos that are now available. The overwhelming majority of hate you witness in these videos is against the police. When arrests go bad , in almost all cases it is because the suspect resisted or fought with the police. And Angie should acknowledge that statistically , a police officer is 18 times more likely to be killed by a black person than the other way around. She should consider what our major democrat controlled cities would be like if we did not have a police force. These blue cities would become even deadlier than they already are. The last thing any police officer wants to do is shoot anyone. Implying that the the police are wilfully killing people is both false and dangerous.
