Wombo combo

EDIT: The police identified and arrested him. And yeah apparently assaulting an on duty police horse counts as assaulting a police officer with a maximum sentence of 9 years. Also he's wearing knuckle dusters so bonus charges.

The delta variant hit the country pretty hard. The northern beaches area of NSW went back into lockdown, then I think it hit Victoria again, and then some guys took it to Sydney.

From there, it's hit areas where it never got to the first time, like Orange and Blayney. I live in a small town, and EVERYONE is taking this super seriously - you could get around town without a mask the first time because we were so far removed from the action and there was this feeling of "we'll mask up when it starts getting closer". This time, no-one is risking it.

The worst part is that Sydney-siders are fucking leaving Sydney and coming to the country, which fucks us all over. The guys who took it to Orange knew they had COVID, it killed their mum. Three tour buses showed up at Taronga Zoo in Dubbo out of Sydney - no word if anyone was sick, but they left a hotspot to go to the zoo and put Dubbo at risk. So fuck these protesting troglodytes even more, because they're putting parts of the country at risk today who have managed to avoid the threat for over a year.

I was gonna say - this topic reminded me of a Pete and Bas verse:

"Whatcha know about sticks / whatcha know about lasers / whatcha know bout punchin a fed off a horse and getting tasered"

Probably the hardest line dropped by a 70+ year old performer.

The LNP buffoons that call themselves a government caught this outbreak at the index case and could've stopped it right then and there with a snap lockdown (like the other states), but apparently decided they'd sooner kill thousands of people than admit Labor had a point.

I wish we could ship this mob (government and "protesters" alike) to the US where they belong.

it's rare to see em in work but they're an option for officers in some areas where police cant patrol quickly on foot or in car.

I get that the guy punching the horse is a scumbag, and I'm not gonna cry if he gets carted off to jail kicking and screaming all the way, but I can't say I agree with your phrasing. The less like America we become, the better.

Police dogs / horses are counted as officers. I dont knoe if it works the same way in aussieland as it does in merica but hopefully that guy isnt taken to the one corner of the station with no camera coverage. If you know what i mean.

They're either used for presentation stuff or park patrol. But they're also used in riots a lot because they're fantastic for crowd control. Most people turn heel when they see a big fucking horse galloping at them lol

NSW Mounted Police have been operating since 1825 (oldest continuously running operation of its kind worldwide), they know what they're doing.

Plus the other charges he will get for being there, he's going to be in jail for a while.

If you protest, it's because you feel your voice isn't being heard. If you riot, it's because you feel your voice is being ignored.

The Northern Beaches one was Alpha, not Delta. Same for one of the recent outbreaks in Queensland; and one of the recent Victoria ones was Kappa. The majority have been Delta though, including Sydney's big one.
