Peter Singer thinks it is OK to have sex with animals as long as there welfare is not harmed.wiki him. He is the god father of animal rights and Mike Baird is now furthering the agenda of Someone who thinks humping a foxie is OK. Miranda Devine outed him on this the other night

i did not believe some of the above so i googled peter singer. What a eye opener
from EXTERNAL LINK Bestiality[edit] In a 2001 review of Midas Dekkers' Dearest Pet: On Bestiality, Singer argues that sexual activities between humans and animals that result in harm to the animal should remain illegal, but that "sex with animals does not always involve cruelty" and that "mutually satisfying activities" of a sexual nature may sometimes occur between humans and animals, and that writer Otto Soyka would condone such activities.[40] This position is countered by fellow philosopher Tom Regan, who writes that the same argument could be used to justify having sex with children. Regan writes that Singer's position is a consequence of his adapting a utilitarian, or consequentialist, approach to animal rights, rather than a strictly rights-based one, and argues that the rights-based position distances itself from non-consensual sex.[41]
Mike Baird sure can pick his "supporters"

Read all about it .....
QUOTE ...Peter Singer
I am now what he considers to be a person with a right to life. But I, along with all other babies, was not born this way. All babies are born without the capacity to make conscious choices about their preference for life, and so Singer does not consider that they have a right to life in the same way as humans who are capable of this choice. This is especially true, he says, where the infant has a disability. End Quote ...

If anyone cares to take the time - have a read of Ayn Rand's book Atlas Shrugged - it is the closest reflection on how Baird is running NSW as you will read - It was written 70 years ago - it is classified as Literacy Fiction - Baird is turning into Literacy History!
NSW is being run by grubby ,dishonest socialists. History will reflect very poorly on these people.

Nice one ..
The theme of Atlas Shrugged, according to Ayn Rand, is the role of the mind in mans existence. It is the mind, the story shows, that is the root of all human knowledge and values and its absence is the root of all evil.
For Rand reason is needed not just by a theoretical scientist in his lab, but by all of us at all times. All of the novels heroes are thinkers: they demonstrate an ongoing commitment to understanding their work, themselves and the world around them. They choose their goals and values by a process of thought, never putting their desires above the facts.
The villains, on the other hand, are those who defy reason and evade facts, acting on whats left: their feelings. As a result, they are in constant conflict with reality and achieve nothing. This is what leads one of the novels heroes to the conclusion that thinking is the basic virtue life requires, and that the anti-mind is the anti-life.
The Villain and the Anti that Ayn writes about is Mr Michael Bruce "Mike" Baird MP....
Written some 70 odd years ago ...WOW ..

From the latter, Quote, Ray Hadley (2GB Presenter), referring to GRNSW Acting (soon to be departed) CEO, Paul Newson:
"What a load of balderdash .... What about leaking the letter to the Premier, you dunderhead!".
Well, we probably couldn't have said it better ourselves! :-)

Trying to stop the staff from lynching him. This document, if genuine, could prove to be one of the best bits of evidence to support our cause.

Great news that Labor will put forward a candidate to contest the Orange bi-election.
Does anyone in the area have any good suggestions who this should/could be??

Just listened to Fordham and vet Zammitt (they both owned a dog once so I guess they know everything and are experts)
HOLD THE PHONE Vol 2 18.65 of inquiry. 17 volunteer re-homing groups were asked and submitted data to the inquiry. In 2015/16 between 17 of them they re-homed 296 greyhounds.
Did I just heard Vet Rob Zammitt claim that he works with pet rescue who themselves re-homed over 1000 greyhound last year !
He also claims 100% of people LB or had their dogs LB.
Last time I read the ABC/4C report they filmed for OVER 4-5 mths in 3 locations and caught home many people ?
There were 15 people (some innocently caught on film) at Tooradin. How many people trialled there over 4 mths ?
I estimate easily 50-70 trainers per week which is apprx 300 trials per week and they got 15.
I am not good at maths but I don't think that's 100%
