EFFORTPOST Recap of the 2021 Battle of Portland

So yesterday was Portland's annual large street battle. There are a bunch of smaller brawls going on in Portland every month or so, but once a year a few hundred rightoids and leftoids from Oregon, Seattle, and California get together to beat the shit out of each other.

https://www.koin.com/news/protests/portland-protests-august-22-2021

Here's the flyer for the "summer of love" event (which is a joke about the CHAZ)

Rightoids initially planned to get a permit for the event in Tom McCall Waterfront Park, but at the last minute moved it to a k-mart parking lot several miles away.

Leftoids got to the park around 1PM and played around there for a while before realizing that rightoids were somewhere else.

Then there was the usual threatening and attacking street preachers downtown as leftoids were waiting for the rightoids to show up:

There were some verbal arguments at KMart (which you can see on the streams) but nothing too crazy happened before this.

Then the leftoids figured out where the rightoids were and marched to the KMart, and that's where the streamers pick up the rest of what happened. First, the leftoids gathered around the entrances to the lot, blocking them off, and then the van leading the black bloc (leftoids) drove into the parking lot, which is what kicked off the battle:

The rest is caught on stream. Rightoids BLM the van, there's some fighting for 7 minutes, leftoids retreat as rightoids advance, then rightoids regroup at the parking lot. Leftoids attack journ*lists for 9 minutes, then rightoids come around the edge of the gas station. Rightoids push leftoids back for 8 minutes until they get to the lot where the leftoids parked. Rightoids BLM some supply and getaway cars for a few minutes before giving a statement to the media.

Oh and sometime after that there was a fun little shootout which no one knows anything about right now other than what we can see in these videos:

EFFORTPOST :!platyaboriginal:Voiceposting EFFORTPOST:platyaboriginal:- Full explanation of the Voice to Parliament and summary of all the drama [Burger Friendly :marseymuttpat:]

As many probably know by now the Voice is the biggest drama to happen in Australia in years, and it's pretty much taken over my posting. However, the campaign has gotten complicated and self-referential enough that I would 100% understand anyone jumping in for the first time or even after missing a week's worth of news would be incredibly confused about everything. This is why I present- the FULL guide to the Voice! Below is what will be covered, feel free to skip to 3-4 if you just want the drama without the context:marseydrama:-

1. What is the Voice?

2. Who are the sides?

3. What is the Uluṟu Statement from the Heart?

4. What are the controversies?

If anything big comes up in the coming weeks/months I'll keep adding to this post, so save this if you want to stay up to date :marseybow:

1. What is the Voice?

The Indigenous Voice to Parliament is a proposed advisory body to Parliament. It would be elected by and presumably composed of Aboriginals, and it would give advice on Aboriginal issues to Parliament and to heads of departments or the PM personally. The election process is apparently going to be weighted, with elders (the oldest members/heads of a tribe) as well as those living in "remote communities" (this is essentially code for still living semi-tribally in bumfrick nowhere) given weighted voting over the mayofied urban Aboriginals:marseymayoface:.

It is important to note that the Government of the day both a) gets to frick with the Voice's composition, powers and process at will and b) can ignore any "advice" they get, HOWEVER they would not be able to get rid of it entirely. This is because the proposal is to put it in the constitution, which also means the Parliament can't actually just vote it in- the constitutional revision needs to be passed by referendum, and then the corresponding legislation setting it up gets legislated in afterwards. This does mean we have to talk about

1b. Referenda in Australia

Referendums in Australia do not pass by a simple majority vote. They pass by a) a majority vote and 2) a majority of Australia's 6 states (so 4/6). Territories count for the first count but not the second, so sucked in Canberra.

The proposed change is worded as follows-

In recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Peoples of Australia:

There shall be a body, to be called the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice;

The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice may make representations to the Parliament and the Executive Government of the Commonwealth on matters relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples;

The Parliament shall, subject to this Constitution, have power to make laws with respect to matters relating to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice, including its composition, functions, powers and procedures.

To which when the referendum day comes you can answer Yes or No. So remember- YES means nonchuds :platyaboriginalpat:, NO means chuds :platyaboriginalgenocide:.

We still do not know when the referendum day will actually come, although there are some considerations. Albanese (the Prime Minister) has to call the referendum for early 2024 by the latest, and has committed to holding it in 2023. Voting in September/early November is presumed to be out because that's when Aussie sporting finals are, which means all the :cunt: will be too busy watching footy and drinking beers to care about the Voice. By law elections and referenda have to be held on Saturdays so that also narrows it down. Pundits generally say October 14, but it could well be in November.

2. The Sides

2a. Yes

The Yes campaign is headed by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and his Labor Party (the centre-left party). In Parliament he is also supported by the Greens (left), the "teal" independents (rainbow capitalists) and a few members of the Liberal party (centre right, also known as literally fascism). Albanese brought the Voice as a policy to the 2022 federal election and won, although he mostly won because the PM at the time (Scott Morrison) had become for good reason despised by most of the population as a corrupt smarmy happy-clappy r-slur.

Albanese however is pretty much a fairly inconsequential career politician who has only ever rocked the boat with the Voice, and that was because it wasn't all that controversial a year ago lol. His Indigenous Minister who is currently doing most of the work to push this is called Linda Burney, who apparently isn't drunk when she talks despite the fact that she really sounds like it. She has essentially for the past few months been brought out for damage control whenever something goes wrong for the Yes campaign.

There are also a series of :platyaboriginal: activists who are working towards Yes under the banner of "Yes23", of which I'll highlight two. Noel Pearson is the activist who is meant to get rightoids on board with the Voice, because he says things like "look if you pass the voice and nothing changes you can blame us Aboriginals for it" and "just give us responsibility for our own problems". On the other side there's Thomas Mayo:marseymayo:, who's a communist who hates Australia which is why rightoid :marseyjourno: have been focusing on him despite the fact he really isn't all that important, and I only mentioned him because he gets brought up a lot.

2b. No (chud)

The mainstream No campaign is headed by opposition leader Peter Dutton of the Liberal Party and his coalition partner the Nationals (rural rightoids), and supported in Parliament by fringe parties such as One Nation (gigarightoid lolcows). Peter Dutton is a former cop who became leader of the Liberals after they lost the election, and pretty much leads the rightoid wing of that party. Some state Liberal leaders are actually pro-Voice, so he hasn't gotten his party in line as much as Albanese has.

2c. No (:marseyblm:)

A fringe No group is the "Blak Sovereignty" movement, with its parliamentary head being Lydia Thorpe (a lolcow who I made a post about months ago). Their deal is that the Voice would surrender Aboriginal sovereignty to the colonial Australian government so should be avoided. Lol.

3. What is the Uluṟu Statement from the Heart?

The Uluṟu Statement from the Heart is a document published by a bunch of Aboriginal elders and activists in 2017 under a bipartisan program, that called for the Voice, plus Treaty (we admit the authority of the Crown in exchange for gibs) and Truth (a commission that's meant to tell all the bad things that happened during colonisation). The controversy here is on whether or not to count the meetings and notes that went into the signed first page- the meetings and notes call for reparations and all forms of other gibs, which the first page omits. The characters involved in the Statement from the Heart have also been scrutinised (this is where Thomas Mayo comes from for example). Albanese has committed to implementing the Statement in full.

4. Controversies

Controversies so far include but are not limited to-

  • the Voice becoming increasingly unpopular

  • Yes campaigners being communists

  • No campaigners being racists (some really were, some weren't really)

  • No ads showing Thomas Mayo begging for gibs (this is racist obviously)

  • National carrier Qantas putting vote yes on their aircraft

  • Other big corps supporting Yes

  • The mining industry supporting No (except it never did)

  • Whether the chud No or the Blak Sovereignty No would make the No official argument in a state-funded information pamphlet- chuds won

  • Whether the wording of the amendment would accidentally give the Voice power over the government of the day (it doesn't)

That's pretty much it, dramaussies tell me if I've missed anything big

EFFORTPOST The Oxford Shooting Part 2 (also learning to cope without seething)

It's finally hit me that I got let go and am unemployed. It's joever in a way I've never experienced prior. Past experiences have calloused my mind against rejection to some degree, which is perhaps why I just feel numb more than anything else. I presume as time passes and I digest the situation more, the psychological effects will become more profound.

I've found keeping the curtains open and letting some sun in does help with not getting sucked into depression. It also helps if you continue to do things you'd normally do like laundry. Just small achievements instil a sense of normalcy and don't let you fall into that "I can't do anything" mindset. I will get out of this stronger than I was, and I still believe in myself.

Today I'd like discuss part 2 of the Oxford shooting. Part 1 is here:

https://rdrama.net/post/240705/the-oxford-shooting-also-respect-andp

In the first part of this series, we delved into the background of the shooting and how many red flags were missed. The kid was basically letting everyone know he was going to be violent, yet he was given a gun by his parents. This post will discuss what happened during the shooting and how adults continued to make baffling choices that resulted in even more deaths than necessary. All information is gathered from the official report which is over 500 pages long.

https://oxfordresponse.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/FINAL-REPORT-OCS-Investigation.pdf

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17093133910492392.webp


The shooting starts

The catastrophic event begins in the bathroom of the south 200 hallway. Here, Ethan Crumbley enters a cubicle retrieves his weapon from his backpack and peepees it. He wasn't alone in the bathroom and there were at least two other students there. The gun is then hidden in his hoodie.

When he walks out, one of the students asks his friend "did he just peepee a gun?", and his question is answered when the sound of gunshots ring. Within the first seven seconds of leaving the bathroom, he had already shot seven students, killing two. These deaths were unpreventable the moment Crumbly walked out the bathroom, which stresses the importance of PREVENTION rather than REACTION. Once a shooter brings a gun into the school, it's Joever. Nobody is fast enough to stop multiple casualties from occurring at that point.

Phoebe Arthur and Elijah Muelle, who were standing together, are the first to get shot. The Shooter looked directly at Elijah and then Eli heard a bang, followed by two more shots. They are wounded but survive their injuries. He then fires at the next group, consisting of Hana Juliana, Kylie Ossege, and Riley Franz. Hana, merely 14, dies from the bullets, while the rest are severely wounded. Unfortunately, Crumbley is not done with his rampage just yet. Like a horrible person, he shoots Hana again, goes to shoot John Ascuitti, and then shoots Hana once again. The 14yo stood no chance against this heathen.

One of the heroes, emerge, who hears the gunshot and heads to it. Her name is Phoebe and she plays dead as the killer walks past. When Crumbly is gone, she asks if anyone else is harmed, and their two responses make it makes it clear that things have changed. Students help into a classroom which is enforced ina room with Nightlock security just for these kinds of situations. They barricaded the door and tried to stop the shoot at least keep themselves safe. Here, Phoebe could call the paramedics who were then dispatch, but more on law enforcement responses later.

Phoebe is the first line of defence as she helped everyone into an abandoned classroom and locked it and 12:58 p.m. Paramedics were relatively fast, able to keep the child They sprung into action, unlike the police. They received their first call from them.

His next victim, Madisyn Baldwin, was shot at close range.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17093133912344866.webp


Point blantk shots

An unarmed girl with nothing to gain was a true hero. She got the students to a classroom that was barracaded and attempted in any way to treat Phoebe' gunshot wound. Phoebe was eventually airlifted to hospitall, allowing her to survive. I imagine how they must have felt, all that evil appearing in a moment meant for friendship. Feeling you and your friend fall to the ground and finally realizing"it's one of those." I'm pressed by folks who send texts saying they love their parents.

The event also ended with a point-blank shots. Both Justin and keegan were hiding in the bathroom. Justin was discovered, and Crumbly did not waste time riddling him with bullets. It appears Crumbley was silent throughout his rampage. The report highlights that the kids were fricked because there's no intercom in the bathroom, so reports of a mass shooting would not have been heard.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/170931339502535.webp


Hana

The report is pretty long, so we can spend time on various deaths. Remember, Crumbly killed four and injured many others with his weapon of war. As you know, Hana was the first victim.

It appears that the school is a massive one, and not everyone knew what was going on at first. The story of a girl named Hanah is horrific. She met up with friends named Riley Franz and Kylie Ossege, as well as an unnamed fourth student. Crumbly had them in his sights, and his intentions were deadly.

After those rounds of attacks, if you can call them that, Crumbly finds another standing together. It becomes obvious that he is aiming for groups, which I presume would intensify the level of violence. He relentlessly sprayed bullets at the students, one of them striking Hana principally, though the others were grievously harmed in the process. He then walked right up to Hana at point-blank. It has been speculated that there was an incel element to the attack and he specifically wanted to kill Hana

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1709313394745832.webp


Adults begin to frick up

As set forth above, video footage from OHS shows that EMS entered the short south 200 hallway at approximately 1:33 p.m., 21 minutes and 47 seconds after the first 911 call was placed and 15 minutes and 4 seconds after Louwaert and Yens first entered the short south 200 hallway. Do you like these numbers?

So the school was actually thoroughly prepared, much like Uvalde, but people were afraid to do the needful. The report states that Kim Potts, the OHS armed lunch monitor, joined Louwaert and Yens in the short south 200 hallway at approximately 12: 58 pm. and Potts began to assist students who had been shot.

Louwaert had provided Potts with a tourniquet to use on Hana, but Potts was unable to put it on Hana by herself.

Most people with these jobs aren't fit for actual action. They're also dumb. The classrooms had a locking system to keep students safe. One student and Manisyn pounded at the room window, so they were both visible. However, only one student was let in, and it wasn't Madison. Madison crouched behind a bin but Crumbly found and changed her life status to dead.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17093133914400368.webp


Adults run away

There are certain jobs where you're supposed to run toward the gunfire. That's the case for Kim Potts, OHS's armed lunchroom monitor. This is what she did when there was a shooter in a bathroom trapping multiple victims and she knew it:

after opening the door, Potts made a small movement forward, but then stopped. She remained in front of the open door for approximately two seconds before pulling herself back at approximately 12:58:04 p.m. and letting the door close

She basically Justin's fate literally by letting the door close. Put simply, she was afraid to get into a gunfight with a kid. From the document:

Justin would have been immediately visible to anyone who opened the door to the Second Bathroom if he had been there when the door was opened.

Potts did not continue into the bathroom, call for help, or alert anyone after opening the door, which would be expected if she had seen Justin when she opened the door.

the video footage contradicts Potts's recollection of events during her deposition. In her deposition testimony, Potts stated that she had been moving quickly through the hallways even before she met up with Gibson-Marshall

worst part

Although mortally wounded, Justin was still alive in the Second Bathroom when OCSO Deputy Yens opened the door to the bathroom at approximately 1:03 p.m.

Potts just shut up about the whole thing. Admittedly, some offers did the right thing.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/170931339447586.webp


The Others

There are others who were injured but didn't die. Here are some of their stories:

  • At approximately 12:51 p.m., as the Shooter started his northward walk in the long 200 hallway, he fired at a student running north in that corridor, away from him. This student told law enforcement that she had been standing in the hallway with friends when she heard sounds like a water bottle popping (which was something that kids at school did). She initially did not realize what was happening; when she understood what the popping sounds were, she tried to enter a nearby classroom but it was locked. She ran north, dropping her backpack as sh ran. When this student looked at her backpack after the shooting, she saw a bullet hole in the bag and discovered a bullet in a textbook inside her backpack

  • the first 9111 call was made 12:51 pm, so it took them 21 minutes to arrive

'* the school had an intercom system, but many did not take it seriously because of all the drills. Furthermore, it was hard to determine whether he was saying "this is a drill" or "this isn't a drill

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17093133943744576.webp


Conclusion

It's never over. You can fall down, but you have to get up and dust yourself off. Nobody can do it for you. It sucks that I'm a 28yo unemployed single man, but I have also got a PhD proposal finally accepted, a family that loves me, and a bunch of Pokemon cards to organise. I'll take a mental break this weekend then make job-hunting my temporary job for a while. it's okay to cry but I haven't been crying over it. Mommy's, not around to make it all better It's up to me to decide what my tomorrow will look like despite the setback.

Spring

1st Granite

My name is Mistem ‘Rankine_911' Gikutmuthkat, broker, and I've somehow managed to get myself here despite not knowing what the heck I'm doing. We currently find ourselves trapped in our fortress, stuck behind closed gates while the undead wait for us outside. Unable to rely on trade from outside, this might be an opportune moment to start up our own steel industry with help from the recently discovered magma lake underground. Hopefully then we can better equip our militia for the eventual fight to drive off the undead.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790670199108.webp

Looking through the stockpiles we find quite the surplus of iron and coal but there is a complete lack of any flux stone which we'll need to begin smelting the steel. Fortunately, there is a limestone layer up near the surface and orders are given to begin mining it out. A work order is also put out to begin smelting pig iron, the first step in the process for making steel.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790672667558.webp

3rd Granite

Only a couple days into the spring and it seems as if the undead that were sieging us down have given up and left? This could be a great turn of fortune for the fort. There is no sign of the dark hunters that had kept us holed up in our fortress. We're still hesitant to open the gates just yet, but perhaps some trade caravans will stop by now. There does still seem to be an axedwarf corpse poking his head over our walls and interrupting the dwarves, but he doesn't seem to be much of a threat for the time being.

12th Granite

One of the dwarven children has gone stark raving mad and is now running around babbling, apparently as the result of a strange mood. Unfortunate, but there doesn't seem to be anything we can do for him now.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790676818752.webp

24th Granite

The axedwarf corpse that had previously been harassing our dwarves from outside the gates somehow managed to find a way inside. It was able to slaughter some of our animals but fortunately the militia was able to respond quickly to eliminate the threat. However the entrance to our fortress is now rather bloody.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790679321556.webp

12th Slate

With the undead siege having given up, it looks like a migrant wave has arrived! With the new migrants, we now have a population of 70 dwarves. The orders are given to open the gates and let them in, and work immediately begins on new bedrooms to accommodate the arrivals.

16th Slate

The Guild of Creatures, a farmers guild, has formed and is now demanding we build them a guildhall. Without any reason to deny them, work is begun on a new guildhall in the fortress.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790681471848.webp

24th Slate

Oh no.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1695579068226611.webp

A gila monster werebeast has come to attack our fort. However in what can only be described as a miracle, its stumbled directly into our trash compactor.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790682903123.webp

The orders are given to pull the lever and all that remains of the frightening creature is a splattering of blood on the ground. An admittedly anti-climatic ending but its for the best that none of the dwarves were brought into direct contact with the werebeast.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790684351768.webp

Summer

1st Hematite

Summer has begun. We've been hard at work expanding the base, but as for our originally plan of starting up a steel industry we've made a whopping total of 3 pig iron bars. In hindsight having to carry all that stone down to the magma lake was perhaps not a great idea. Hm.

3rd Hematite

Two thieves have been spotted, but thankfully it looks like we caught them before they were able to get inside.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790685265417.webp

The militia is raised, and the two thieves are quickly dispatched. It seems that we have a rather talented axe lord in our militia who was able to quickly lop off both of their heads.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790685667934.webp

8th Hematite

With such little progress made on smelting the pig iron, we begin to question why our work orders are taking so long. Its discovered that a huge number of dwarves are spending all their time just trying to keep the animals in the pasture. It's not clear what is causing them to keep running away, but it seems like it might be worthwhile to start slaughtering some of this vast herd of animals we have.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790687835217.webp

14th Hematite

A human caravan has arrived. We use this opportunity to sell off some of our old equipment in return for leather and cloth.

17th Hematite

The dwarves have decided that with the recent expansion of our fort this would be an appropriate time to elect a mayor. It is decided that @60horsesinmyherd, our expedition leader, should become the mayor of the fort. Work begins on making a bedroom and office of sufficient quality for such an important role in our fort.

27th Hematite

And more migrants have arrived. This might be getting to be too much to handle, we'll need to get to work making more beds now. Our population is now up to 79 dwarves. With this new wave of migrants, a rangers guild has been established and now also wants their own guildhall.

12th Malachite

One of our dwarves has been possessed, I wonder what this will lead to?

21st Malachite

And that possessed dwarf has created Sosadmot, a chestnut bucket.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790694180515.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1695579069492542.webp

20th Galena

The 10 pig iron bars have finally been smelted, and it only took nearly half of the year. Work is started next on smelting the steel. Some work is now being done to set up the stockpiles so that everything needed will be hauled down to the magma smelter which should hopefully speed things up a little.

Autumn

11th Limestone

A caravan has arrived from Atir Zas, and our mayor meets with the liaison (who is apparently a goblin?). There's nothing in particular we need, so no requests are made from them, however they do ask for us to supply meat next year and are willing to offer more than double for it.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790695905762.webp

2nd Timber

More migrants have arrived, and along with a couple of children born the previous month our population has now reached 91.

4th Timber

The first 10 steel bars have been smelted. The new stockpile was able to help speed things up after clearing up some confusion the dwarves had about where the stone should be hauled. We've assembled several more magma smelters and are now prepared to really get the steel production going.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790696781294.webp

Winter

4th Moonstone

It's now winter, and right away we find two more thieves outside our fortress. However, they are no match against our militia.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790698097553.webp

28th Obsidian

Winter passes us by mostly uneventfully and my year comes to an end. We've been hard at work smelting steel and now have a sizable supply ready for us to forge into whatever may be needed in the upcoming year. A baby was born this month, bringing our growing fort to a population of 92. Thanks to the incoming migrant waves, we are now seen as a town rather than just a hamlet. And with that, I will pass this chronicle over to the next dwarf.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16955790698583105.webp


Well that generally went better than expected. If it's not clear by now, I really don't know much about Dwarf Fortress and had only played for a few hours or so before jumping right into the succession fort. It's a game that I really want to like, but when I play it more often feels like I'm fighting against the UI rather than actually dealing with any game mechanics. As you can see, it took me half the year just to figure out how to get the stockpile set up so dwarves would actually bring stone to it.

As for the actual fort, the siege is over (not that I really had anything to do with it) and the population has more than doubled. I did have to save scum once when that zombie climbed over the walls because he somehow managed to kill the entire militia and I have no idea how. When I repeated it they took it out no problem. The werebeast could have been disastrous, but it walked right into the trash compactor. Other than that, the fort mostly just ran itself without much issue.

I will send the save back to @BFBugleberry since he was busy and had to pass on his turn.

He's still busy so its now @Yasharn's turn

EFFORTPOST (Actually made an effort) (Not really 😂) Meet the 'Salty Army'

As any dramatard not living under a rock knows, When John McAfee (An actual Yogi) got Y'alled and the final post on his Instagram (posted barely minutes after reports of his death started coming out) was Q. Then the IG account got shut down and this led to a lot of colourful conspiracies. A post on arr drama was made linking to his IG here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Drama/comments/o6s6y6/breaking_instagram_just_posthumously_banned_john/.

Searching for drama, I opened the Other discussions tab and discovered a subreddit: r/SaltyArmy

The subreddit logo is a picture of DDR with the text "Orange man good" and the content is basically just Trumpcel stuff posted by just one overinvested guy. What caught my eye was the sidebar and sub description.

Common Question

Q: Why is this Sub/Post NSFW?

A: This Sub is a Sample of a Balanced Societal Rhetoric. This Rhetoric comes in many forms & echos the formation of Societies best & worst. Not all Post, Comments, & Rules achieve a counterbalance mindset so they are not suited for all viewers. Discretion is advised.

When they ask you to explain what the r/SaltyArmy is:

Liberal Independent Conservative Knowledgeable (L.I.C.K)

Methodical Yearning (M.Y)

Based Analytical Logistics Loyal Strategic (B.A.L.L.S)

r/SaltyArmy Home, FRICK REDDIT we will use their tools against them.

All snappy worthy.

While the sub is restricted and the owner just posts stuff that you'd expect from a Daddy fan, I'm surprised that it still hasn't been noticed by the admins or AHS. Taking bets: What do you think will happen to the sub in the near future?

A. Gets Banned B. Will continue getting more and more shizoid, reflecting the owner's slowly spiralling down mental state

Invest in dramacoin and pray for the latter to happen!

EFFORTPOST Not Of Normal Criminal Element - The P-dophile Hunters of the UK

NONCE HUNTERS ON TERF ISLAND

What crime is more despised in society than pedophilia? Anyone who endangers or harms children is instantly stigmatized, sometimes even killed. It's easy to understand why - kids are innocent and they are our future.

Many blokes around the world have taken it upon themselves to hunt these people and shame them. In modern day, murder isn't acceptable, so they shame them online. If you've kept up with nonce hunting scene in the UK, you'll know a few of the key groups and their incestuous history with each other.

To my understanding, Chris Hansen is the OG. His influence cannot be captured in a single graph. He importantly influenced Stinson Hunter in the UK who spearheaded the nonce hunting on TERF island. Stinson had a good run, but he eventually tried other shit that didn't work. He did, however, usher in the first “wave” of nonce hunters, and it's easy to say that Shane Brannigan and Sarah Doherty (internet interceptors) were the stars.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17005050206875556.webp

They had some beef together and mutually destroyed one another. Internet interceptors split up with many of the members trickling into other groups such as Predator Exposure and Guardians of the North.

I'd like to show you some of my favorite p-dophile hunters from the UK and the good stings they have done. The article would have been longer but unfortunately, I stopped paying attention to the scene for a few years and come back to discover that most of the good ones have been scrubbed off the net. Nevertheless, there are still some good ones, but not the best ones.

I apologize that they are not all YouTube, as some videos are only available on Facebook. Trust me, they are worth the watch.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17005050251473312.webp


Shane Brannigan

If you've been in the nonce hunting scene of the UK for a while, you'll recognize Shane Brannigan as one of the OG p-dophile hunters. He has a bit of a backstory and he looks like true Norfwood mate. He was abused sexually as a child and the police never believed him. It's screwed his brain because he is psychotic in his methodology.

For many of the p-dophile hunters, you can tell they are doing it for clout. With Shane, it's clear that it's personal. You can tell he is using all his willpower to stop himself from literally killing the p-dophiles in front of him.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17005050210582573.webp

During Shane's heyday, he had the best videos online. He had the men terrified, and he'd often make them phone their wives. Sometimes, he would pair up with Sarah Doherty, who is another very aggressive p-dophile hunter. I used to know the story between these two and the fallout they had, but it was years ago and many of the videos have been scrubbed from the internet.

From research and memory, I have been able to piece together the story a bit, but I can't confirm the details because the videos of them talking about it themselves are gone. The point is, they eventually had beef, and Shane knew something about Sarah that made her quit p-dophile hunting altogether because she was afraid of it getting exposed.

If anyone has the tea, please share. There are also blogs online that try to cover it, but it's hard to tell what's real because some of them could be p-dophiles trying to besmirch the hunters who ruined their lives.

https://thetruthaboutshanebrannigan.blogspot.com

Here are the best stings from him:

a) Andy Salter

This is one of the best stings out there. Nice and clean, and ends with an arrest. It occurs in a confined space, which adds to the tension. Shane yells at the man, and he gets scared. Then Shane calls the female decoy who calls him a dirty c*nt.

b) Keith Goldswain

Another good, clean sting. One of the highlights of this video is that you can see the visceral fear in Keith's eyes, voice, and trembling hands. It's a sight to behold, and it makes you excited as well. He trips over his voice trying to defend himself but it's for nothing because he's banged to rights.

https://www.facebook.com/BustedByBrannigan/videos/keith-goldswain-busted-by-brannigan-in-portsmouth/370076483467275

c) Andrew Sealey

This is a favorite of mine. Andrew Sealey is caught with his wife trying to pick up a child. The wife stays by the husband's side, so Shane attacks her as well. He gives no shits, and he doesn't mind being a woman disrespector.

https://www.facebook.com/100063234669608/videos/371419923332931

Shane calls Andrew a nonce and Andrew's like “I've been called worse” lol.

For more Shane goodness you can watch a BBC documentary about him.

Guardians of the North

These guys used to be my favorite nonce hunters. I like the leader and his thick accent. They take no shit from the p-dophiles and they make fun of them and humiliate them. I like this group because although it is obvious they enjoy the clout, they seem to do things by the book (mostly). They also have some pretty entertaining stings under their belts.

A wild Holly appears! Holly has interviewed these lads!

These are the stings you need to watch:

a) Praju Prasad

This is a short but good one. They catch an Indian man and he immediately begins the head-bobbing motion like a bobble-toy. He gets on his knees and begs for mercy, but they want none of it. They force him to get on his feet because they don't want him to be so pathetic.

b) Ali

The folks sting someone they know! It's a man who owns a restaurant. You can tell a bit of xenophobia seeping in because they say “your family was the only one I trusted, not anyone else” obviously referring to the predator's brown community.

It gets funny when they ask him “What would your Imam say?” And he is so ashamed he cannot answer the question. They also bring up the fact that Ali's father died in a fire saving others and Ali is far from a hero.

Once again, you can see the panic and it's strong. He knows his life is over, and he wishes he could turn back the hands of time but it's too late.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17005050214826512.webp


Stinson Hunter

This isn't the type of guy you want in your home. Stinson has a history of drug abuse and crime. However, he now gets to be high and mighty in comparison to p-dophiles. His videos are the cream of the crop when it comes to nonce stings, with perhaps Dark Justice being the only group that comes close.

A man he stung committed suicide and Stinson doesn't give a frick.

Most of Stinson's stuff has been zapped from the net, so I'll only post one.

a) Jonathan Rowland

A man comes on a bike to meet a child. He is stopped by Stinson. The man then proceeds to lie and claim he has been framed. It is funny because he is obviously lying.

https://www.facebook.com/100044427969945/videos/237262102441394


CONCLUSION

There's so many good stings gone forever. If you can help me please identify

  • indian caught and claims he just came to get KFC

  • Man ho owns a carpet store busted at work and he is made to call his wife

  • Man who is busted on Christmas at home and is kicked out by his wife

As I've mentioned in my previous post, I'm in the process of attempting to escape inceldom. I will share the results soon, and it'll be my longest post yet. I think you'll like it.
