“We have hit a tipping point where the civil rights of an #individual need to be put aside for the #CivilRights of a #community. When a community doesn’t feel #safe, you have to act and you have to make sure there’s a #deterrent and a #consequence.

In my home state again [#Queensland], I would encourage every state to do this, we’re going back to #outback camps where we are rebuilding these young people with a life #skill. Not putting them behind barbed wire but sending them to remote places, giving them a skill and #purpose in life.” — David Littleproud

The National leadership is roaring to the press.

A reminder, my daddy was a State National MP and Minister. I’m from Queensland and our ideas need to be heard across the nation.

Similar dynamics are at work in #abortion #litigation.

Many patients are loathe to challenge #abortion #laws--because of the fear of reprisals, violence, or being ostracized in a small community. These fears have a #deterrent effect on rights litigation.

Which is why #ThirdParty #standing has been so important. Most of the abortion cases that have been litigated in federal courts have been brought by providers on behalf of themselves & their patients.

Many veterans of the #Trump admin have a similar warning for #Ukraine as it battles #Russia’s invasion. “US support for Ukraine would end,” said a snr US official who served under Trump & #Biden.

“The point is, he saw absolutely no point in #NATO,” Kelly said. “He was just dead set against having troops in #SouthKorea, again, a deterrent force, or having troops in #Japan, a #deterrent force.”

The mylar holographic bird scare flash tape that worked earlier in the year to deter bats & birds from roosting above front door frame no longer works. They got wise to my low cost renter’s solution. So I picked up 12” x 4” foam bricks, taped them together linearly, wrapped them in scare tape, and wedged them above the door frame. The clearance was 4”ish too so they simply hold in place without adhesive.No more opening door to mess & early morning jump scares. #physical #birds #deterrent

The #UnitedStates conducted a new round of #airstrikes against facilities used by #Iran & its proxies in eastern #Syria late Sunday in retaliation for a spate of recent attacks against American troops, #Pentagon ofcls said on Sunday.

Ofcls said the strikes most likely killed or injured an undetermined number of people at the sites.

As scores of world ldrs & diplomats gathered Sat at the #CairoPeaceSummit called by #Egypt, #Arab countries condemned the killing of #civilians in #Gaza & called for a #peace process, while the #UN reiterated appeals for a #ceasefire. Just hours after the #Cairo meeting adjourned, #DefSec #Austin announced the deployment of additional #deterrent #UnitedStates air defenses to the region & said he had placed more American #troops on alert to “prepare to deploy” to the region.

@ai6yr @WXFanatic @alberniweather Recently used mylar holographic bird scare tape to deter bats and birds roosting above front door frame - large covered porch meant they were hiding from nearby raptors, resting and making a mess. I was afraid starlings were gonna start a nest. Currently in the Pacific Flyway migration route. The combination of sound and reflection has worked marvelously. Cheap renter’s solution. :) #birds #deterrent
