Have you been consumed yet by rising anger?

There used to be a time where you could draw a weapon or two and with the permission of the range officer go and cull roo numbers where they were getting too numerous. With so much going in their domain at the moment though the fate of roos in Australia is the last thing on the defence plate. They’re too busy making sure Australian people don’t die in foreign parts. They also have so many restrictions placed on what they can and can’t do by various interest groups that any action they want to take has to be checked and triple checked before anything happens. Invariably though even when they get the nod to actually take some sort of action another group pops up to tell them to stop again.

The SAS are a little busy in Afghanistnam at the moment, but I’m sure the Army could get a few Duntroon and ADFA cadets out with bayonets.

As long as the roos are being killed humanely, I am not getting too upset about this issue.

I’m angered by the waste of a training opportunity for Army snipers.

If they got the SAS to do it, then they have existing secrecy laws about SAS operations that would allow them to keep it out of the media, thus avoiding the public outcry issues.

Mostly I just want to be assured that the meat isn’t being wasted.

Done properly, skippy would have been minced into tucker for puppies before the hippies got out of bed.

White phos, air burst. Instant BBQ.

I love kangaroos. I’m still fascinated by the sight of kangoroos when I take a walk behind the hills.

But these anti-culling groups have obviously never been to parts of Australia where kangaroos are rampant, filled up the oval & playground with their roo poos so children could no longer play there. If the anti-culling group is very seriously about this, they should come up with a solution before it becomes unmanageable instead of making placards & whine.

The government should give a land to the anti-culling & roo-friendly group, herd all the kangaroos to that land to be taken care by the group. See if how long it takes before they cry, too many.

I am so consumed with rising anger that I just want to go out & shot a hippie protester. Can I get a permit to do that? As there isn’t enough greenery for all of them due to their numbers being to high. People this is a serious problem, think of the children, why won’t anyone think of the children.

Anger rising where? So a couple of salad eating, hair shirt wearing vegan knob-ends get their panties in a twist about the implementation of sensible government policy. Big deal.

I could. Yum!

I could, except for the eyes. I can never get them to stay on my fork…

meh. Kangaroos starving to death would provoke a far greater outcry. cruel to be kind is better than torture and misery.

I’ve heard them.

Yeah – they’re kinda hard to miss!

I love my Macarthur Kangaroos; their fuzzy little faces watch us with suspicion each morning as we (the dogs and I) proceed on our daily run (I’m a city girl, so they are still a real novalty for me). I must admit though that there seems to have been a population explosion down our way, and I worry about their being enough food to sustain the horde. Culling, while unfortunate, seems to be a case of being ‘cruel to be kind’. And I hardly think the Americans can talk.

It’s the golden rule of all you can eat: don’t fill up on bread.

Only because you’re filling up on useless salad.

I’m angry about all the attention this issue is getting.

Quick, thin out their numbers! (no, not talking about the roos…)

There really must be lots of Americans out of work, they have nothing better to do than speculate how mad us Aussies are getting.
