No... no taking the easy way out here.
This is the Fern, there should be a full re-covering of ground, with circular arguments, and plenty of photographic and video evidence used to support one's stance on any argument (or, especially, any perceived disagreement where none exists).I fully support this. @Bones should invent some evidence immediately

@canefan she's part Lebanese...
I haven't changed my mind at all mate. At no time did I say Salma was not hot. It was RL or you guys trying to turn the Mila/Eliza/Salma discussion into an either or situation. Salma is gorgeous, her bed scene in Il Mariachi was smoking hot. I would definitely give her the time of day
Her ... belly’s too .. flat?..
Nah I got nuthin. She’s all kinds of awesome.

CF said Beirut lives don't matter according to the port authority, I said he's changed his tune since defending Salma yesterday. It was high humour at it's most highest high point.

Yeah. I know. I was trying to help salvage something from the wreckage.

Then, perhaps, kneel to Salma?
I would raise up all sorts of false idols to kneel before that. -

I'm still confused, could we maybe get a flow diagram or some sort of timeline with those red arrows you're famous for?

So who here, if privileged enough to be in a position to do so, would kneel?
Be honest.
I wouldn't.
Does that make me rascist?
Nope

From the Australian:
Dear Peter,
It takes my breath away too. Why won’t Folau support a peaceful movement that has destroyed property, burned buildings, looted countless businesses, wants to abolish the police, and is founded on Marxist principles? Beats me.
Your unequalled insight into Folau is not disputed. To quote from your column last December “As one who has followed the issues closely … and who has written and ranted about it extensively, I am more aware than most of the damage he [Folau] has done, the hurt he has caused …” Modesty is but one of your many admirable attributes.
You now want to list all of Folau’s faults in your column, but by the time you have plugged your books, dropped the names of who you and the wife hobnobbed it with on the weekend, reminded readers you were the only Australian rugby player sent off for “violence” against the New Zealand All Blacks, casually mentioned you are a pro chancellor at the University of Sydney, alerted us to your being a friend and acquaintance of prime ministers and premiers, let us know that you were approached to run for the seat of Warringah, told us yet again that membership numbers are “surging” at the Australian Republic Movement (of which you are Chair of course) – truth is, there is not enough room to do your outrage justice.
One further piece of advice: before fulminating about Folau any further I would recommend you review your various stances on players using the field the advance their ideologies. You in 2011 on Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow and his habit of thanking Jesus Christ for his achievements: “Go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen.” You in 2018 on former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick: “A nation which prides itself on the right to freedom of speech … can’t claim to actually live by those values when it so severely punishes one of their own when he exercises that right …” You in 2019 on about Rugby Australia’s move to dismiss Folau over his social media posts regarding damnation for gays, drunks, fornicators and liars “This is not an infringement of your freedom of speech, but what you got is you don’t have freedom from consequences.” You in 2019 on NRL indigenous players’ refusal to sing the national anthem “Bravo” for “making a stand”).
You would have great difficulty in explaining these inconsistent stances, not to mention trying to reconcile them with Folau’s non-participation in the latest feel-good fad. To use a sporting analogy: it is reminiscent of a certain former Wallabies player and his ill-advised decision many years ago to start a blue with the French team. It ended very badly for him. Let’s just say he was full of energy, flailing, determined to land his punches – none of which connected.
