Ending the Violence
I was most distressed to read a recent comment on my blog site. The comment I refer to seemed to adulate the criminal exploits of a certain chap called Beckham, who is unfortunately visiting this fair land soon.
I will certainly be out in protest against this fiend. For the love of all that is good, surely one day the world will realise that fame and adoration should not be given to those whose only talent is repeatedly kicking a defenceless object.
I suggest instead of being sucked in by the media driven madness that my dear readers could involve themselves in healthier and happier pursuits. We can all end the violence if we don’t participate in it.
I just read in the newspaper today that the ‘Greatest Trumpeter on Earth’ is to play with our own symphony orchestra in just a few weeks time. What an incredible experience it will be for all of Wellington to be able to hear this musical maestro. Events like this are far better for ones mental and moral health than the exploits of degenerate and brutal foreigners.
Finally I am happy to report that the first Issue of my Compendium is on its way to the printers in short order. So for all of you who are counting the days until you can finally hold a copy in your hands, take heart. It won’t be long now.
Yours with Warmth and Sincerity,
Viola
I think we should all be worried about the prospect of violence in our fair land. Violence, even when coupled with the best of intentions, is never acceptable and is often symptomatic of a society in decline.
So it is with concern that I note that while the Romans had their gladiators and the Third Reich their Waffen-SS we have our own exceptionally violent group, those men and occasionally women, whose regular activities sees them perpetrating acts of violence that, if carried out on a public street, would constitute grounds for a charge of assault.
The result of their activities can be found on the Accident Compensation web-page. Rugby has most injury claims of any sporting code and I feel it is quite fitting that the exploits of those who play this game at the highest level should be celebrated by the black flags that adorn so many vehicles on our streets.
