A poll on A Current Affairs website today....

I was watching the Hillsong segment and noticed the poll below the video window. So I read it and was shocked.

Are thieves who target elderly people cowards?
Yes  976
No   67

I was one of the people who voted Yes... obviously.

But my mind could not get around the fact that 67 responders DO think people targetting the elderly are NOT cowards !!

What does this tell you folks ?

About 8 percent of the population, if we are to accept the demographics of this poll, think targetting the elderly is OKAY.

This means the rest of us, the 92 percent, MUST stand up to Protect our Elderly from the 8 percent of the population that thinks it is okay to attack them.

What the hell is the world coming to ?

Only 20 or 30 years ago 100 percent of responders would have said YES, it is cowardly to attack the elderly. In just those few years we have bred a larger number of arseholes who don't give a shit about anyone but themselves.. as was witnessed by me only last Friday night and written about in the blog post right below this one.

How to fix it ?

Men.. STAND UP and be Counted now. Stop this shit from happening. It is Your DUTY... otherwise you are part of the problem and not the fix.

Idiots Galore...

While quietly watching the silly box waiting to be tired enough for sleep I heard loud swearing out front of my place, so I went to the window to have a look. There was someone in my yard with a small light and another person outside yelling abuse at the person in my yard.

So outside I went, coz I am not afraid. Not like all the other men in my street.. and probably your street.. who prefer to stay in the safety of their own house and not get involved.

Turns out the person in my yard is the abusive 20 something year old guys girlfriend, looking for the mobile phone he threw at the footpath in his stupid 14 year old, self important, spoilt brat behaviours.

As I was going out my door he slapped my letter box, and so knocked the lid half off it with a loud bang. And so I walked up to him with a light in his eyes.. as cops do.. and he yelled, "Get that fucking light out of my eyes c#nt"

At which point I considered grabbing his throat and walking him backwards until he realised he was about to get his arse kicked... but instead I decided to take the higher road and talk him down. Of course I don't take orders from anyone, especially not poorly behaved young men.. if you can call him that.

So I stepped right up to him and pointed my torch at the letterbox to ask him about it.. he of course did the usual Gen Y/Z thing and claimed he never touched it. I informed him I had seen him do that, and he was disturbing the peace in my street at midnight, to which he yelled.. "So fuckin what ?"

I then put my hand up to show where my space was in relation to him and asked him to be honest and I will help look for his phone. He of course just turned away and sat in the gutter while abusing his girlfriend for not looking hard enough to find the phone he threw away!

Yep.. very typical Gen Y/Z behaviours right there. So I asked his girlfriend as we looked around why he was so much more inportant than everyone else. She only said, "I don't know. He always does this shit. I don't know why I stay with him." Good girl.. now take that to the next obvious step and leave the dickhead.

So I then said to the young 'man', "I don't know why I am wasting my time looking for the phone you threw away and can't be bothered looking for yourself."

He got up and started walking away while saying, "I'll just leave my phone behind then.. give me yours now (to his girlfriend)". So as he started to walk away from my place I turned to come back inside.. then he threw his girlfriend's phone at the footpath and it smashed into a zillion bits that could not be found. Idiot.

After that he proceeded to abuse her for him having to throw both phones away.. what a childish dickhead he was.

So I quickly came indoors and grabbed my short door-manager... well I am in my 50's now.. and went back outside because I felt he was going to physically attack her. They got about 10 metres further up the footpath when he really began yelling abuse at her louder than before.. I walked out onto the footpath to watch what he would do in case the girl needed help.

And that's when he ran at her, grabbed both her arms and pushed her backwards into the wire fencing along the tennis courts nearby. That was enough for me, I called out to him, "OI!! Get your hands off her, BOY."

He yelled back, "Shut the fuck up c#nt and mind your own business or else."

Okay, so he gave me another order did he ? Well that won't work. So I started walking in his direction saying, "You don't hit or push women around, BOY."

"Oh really ?", he asked as he started to run towards me as if he was trying to scare me into submission. That won't work either. "I didn't punch her, so fuck off", was his next words to me as he approached in a fast jog.

So I kept walking casually towards him as he got closer, and put my hand up again to show where my safety space was for him.. but he kept coming and walked straight into my hand that was now in the middle of his chest... coz he was about 6 foot 2 inches tall.. he towered over me, and was trying to use what he thought was an advantage over me. Well that won't work either.

Once he realised my hand was pushing harder into his chest he freaked, "Don't fuckin touch me." He yelled like a windbag but didn't DO anything, and I was ready for anything. I pulled my hand down as he tried to swat it away.. and because his weight was against my hand, he started to fall forward into the neighbour's fence. He stumbled and then caught himself and I had moved around to his offside in case I needed to blow out his eardrum to stop him coming at me.

When he realised I had moved and he was now past me enough to have no chance to land a hit on me he quickly looked at the situation, saw I wasn't backing down, he saw the door manager in my hand, and then backed off immediately.

That's when I told him, "I didn't touch you, you walked into me trying to scare me."

By this time he realised it was better for him to leave.. so he did.. his girlfriend was already across the highway and he walked fast to catch up to her... but was not yelling anything, no more abuse or anything.

Then a 4x4 pulled up at the lights on the highway and they got in it.. he looked back at me once before getting in the car and leaving. And that was the last I saw of Mr Hero spoilt brat acting like a 14 year old with attitude.

Found some smashed bits of phone afterwards and so I threw them onto the footpath for him to find if he came back in the daylight. Woke up this morning and checked.. yep.. the bits were all gone.

And that is the saga of my encounter with yet another self-important Gen Y/Z'er that thinks they are superior to everyone else.. especially old blokes and girls.

Honestly, his Mum screwed him up big time by letting him rule her and the home as he was growing up. He only learned that he was more important than anyone else alive, that he could use his size and attitude to intimidate women and smaller men.

If he isn't now, he will become a women basher. I don't stand for that, never will.

It is every man's DUTY to protect those who cannot protect themselves.

So men need to stop being afraid of boys.

Oh for the good old days when men were men and didn't take shit from dickheads needing to learn a lesson in the real world.

Yay!! I got it...

After quite a bit of time being a grumpy old bastard I have finally come to understand something important.

And that is.... Unless someone effects me directly I have no need to be pissed off about their behaviour in public. Of course this does not apply when in my own house, so anyone behaves with disrespect and they get turfed out.. simple.

I was getting wound up about all the stupidity I see around me in every moment of every day..  some of which you can read in earlier posts here. I let the idiots get to me.. let them get under my skin. I tried to reform them by talking up and showing them a mirror.. all to no avail. Why ? Because they DO NOT CARE, they are "more important" and so they do not and cannot think of why they should improve their public behaviours.

The second issue was that no one else had the BALLS to speak up. Which tells me they are living in FEAR. I don't do fear, so was lacking in understanding why almost everyone else does. It confused me endlessly and caused me a lot of grief.

Now I get it. They are where they are in their overall perceptions, and there is NOTHING I can do to assist them into a clearer perception. So.. there is no point even trying.

Or as some wise person was alleged to have said a long time ago.... "Don't throw pearls before swine."

I used to hate that saying with a vengeance.. until I finally began to understand it is not being Judgemental on anyone, it is simply stating in the most simple of terms.. NOT to waste your energy, your breath, your thoughts on anything you cannot directly affect for the better.

So there ya have it. Simple idea, BIG gem to hold onto.

And hold onto it for dear life is something we will all be forced to do over the next year as we lose even more Freedoms and Rights, and have no recourse to have our say about it. There is NOTHING we can do to change anything that is oging on in the world around us today.

You do not have the power, nor do I.

So no point wasting anything we have on it. Better then to work on things we can Affect... our own actions, our own thought processes.. get out the back yard and put in a vegie patch coz you will need to supplement your food soon enough in order to save some dollars, etc.

Basically, it is time to work on yourself. Do the things you want to do that you can do now days within the very limited freedoms we still have. And.. let all others be who and where they are now without feeling the need to help or change anything... except for where it is something that you CAN change.

And that's it.. my newish outlook on life. It might sound like I am saying, "Me First!!".. and in a non-egotistic way that is what I am saying. We cannot be right for anyone else if we are not right with ourselves... fact of life... get used to it.

Oh... almost forgot... have NO EXPECTATIONS of anyone.. that way you cannot feel let down by another person.

There is method in this madness.
