Was interested. It was a banana milkshake. That must have been sticky.

The first act of political violence in Australia was when PM Billy Hughes was struck by an egg that was thrown at him during a speech in favor of conscription.
The second act of political violence in Australia was when PM Hughes jumped into the crowd to throw hands with the egg-thrower.

Haha, fuck yeah, but also nah, it’s all a bit of biff mate, better to throw hands than lock up a bastard. Unfortunately the leaders do both.

For those that need info, sadly, it left out the part where he jumped into the crowd, I wanted to know if he was a badass or got his ass stomped.

This is a good reason for Trump to want ICE. Turns out the local cops all suck his dick too though, so he doesn’t need them. Yet, anyway.

Man, I bet he really had egg on his face after that incident.

Honestly it’s only bad once the shock were off and you don’t have more pain meds because insurance denied you getting more. Being stabbed is worse, unless it hits something major enough to cause shock in the first place. Then insurance will only approve mild localized anesthesia to fix it and ibuprofen but as long as you don’t have to move, breath, or otherwise exist as a person, you’re good!
Guess which country I’m from…
Carl@anarchist.nexus 2 months ago
Nah, I’ve been stabbed and shot. Getting shot was way worse.
I was stabbed while fighting some white supes who were trying to take over a bar. My buddy was working as a bouncer so we were there to hang out. It was winter so we all had big puffy coats on while we hung out at the front of the bar. He had some skinheads show up and try to get in. He started to bounce them, they pushed back, and suddenly they realized that everyone outside of the bar were his friends. We got into a tussle, and the six of us kicked the shit out of the five of them.
But afterwards, when the ambulances were parked outside, my buddy was like “hey uhh… You should go talk to the EMTs *now*.” I had a pocket knife sticking out of my shoulder, punched through my coat. I casually strolled over and was like “hey, is this… A problem?” Two of the EMTs immediately broke away from two of the skinheads to work on me instead. It sucked *after*, for sure. But at the time, I didn’t really feel it. Having my arm in a sling was honestly the worst part about it, because it was on my good side. So I had to learn to do a lot of stuff with my bad hand, because my good arm was strapped to my torso.
Then I got shot (in the ass cheek, of all places) while being mugged outside of a music festival. I don’t even think he meant to shoot me; I think he was just an idiot. I remember the gun going off as my back was half-turned to him, (which is how he hit my ass cheek) then him cursing and taking off in the opposite direction. That one felt like a white-hot muscle cramp. Like the worst muscle cramp you’ve ever had, combined with a super over-exerted muscle burn like you just did a massive workout. Ever had a kidney stone? Sort of like that. Docs said I was lucky he didn’t hit my hip bone, because that would have been crippling at least, potentially even fatal. I still have a massive scar on my ass from where it tracked all the way across my ass.
Given, the adrenaline probably played a large part in why I didn’t feel the knife. But I had plenty of adrenaline while being mugged too, and I sure as shit felt that bullet.

Cops and secret service don’t just shoot you once in the leg dude, they unload the clip center mass until you’re dead

You do something like that today they’ll try to put you away for 30 years on terrorism charges.

Someone chucked a milkshake at Nigel Farage a coupe of years ago and got a 13-week suspended jail sentence for assault. Along with endless pearl-clutching from the right and Farage talking about how distressed he was.
Which is funny when you compared it to back in the 90s when someone threw an egg at John Prescott and he immediately punched them in the face lol.
JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 2 months ago
A suspended sentence is just the ultimate slap on the wrist tho.
It’s basically saying “Yeah you did a bad thing, just stay out of trouble for a few months and we’ll call it even, k?”

Fucking Andy Ngo and his milkshake whining. “It had concrete in it!” No it didn’t, what would that even do? It was liquid. You’re just a baby.

They’ll claim it was laced with some kind of bio-weapon, and yet, it was just creame.

Funny story, here in Sweden, our speaker of the parliament was visiting a school to speak. Someone threw a “banana or part of a banana”. Bodyguards “aprehended” the boy until police arrived and the boy was interrogated at the police station.
The speaker then started a criminal suit against the boy (who was 16) with the charge of disorderly conduct. The damage was noted as, a stained shirt.
According to the speaker, incidents like this could cause politicians to not want to speak at schools (oh no… how will the children cope?)
Anyway, people are calling him out as the clown he is. And i’d be very surprised if gets to keep his post after our election (regardless of who wins)

One of his favorite targets was the French philosopher Bernard-Henri Lévy, who was pied by Godin or one of his accomplices on at least seven occasions.
After checking out this Bernard guy, all I can say is: “good”
Lumisal@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I wonder if at least once he approached Lévy saying “Behold! A Pie!”

I prefer bringing a guillotine to the meeting, like what happened in Salem during a council meeting with a data center CEO. Or Luigi style pie throwing, with bullets.

We’d probably have a better chance of getting away with it in groups of 1,000+ gathered around/transporting guillotines.

I have a recipe for brick pie that is to die for.
Murse@slrpnk.net 2 months ago
There’s an on-the-go version that’s super compact! Instead of stone, which is porous / relatively high concentration of air, these ones are made out of lead to get all that pie in as small a container as possible. It even comes wrapped in a tiny little pot for you to cook it in - you just tap the back while pointing it at a deserving world leader and *boom!* it delivers a tiny, hot pie right to their face!

Without exaggeration, doing this now (depending on the person) would risk life imprisonment for bioweaponry terrorism, or just getting shot
Carl@anarchist.nexus 2 months ago
Yeah, pretty much. A large part of what made the face-pie so effective was simply the “we can still touch you” reminder. It’s a powerful message, because it reminds them that their bodyguards only need to fail once. Which is why they’ve captured the courts and police, to deter attacks even when they aren’t under constant protection.
jaybone@lemmy.zip 2 months ago
I remember a few years ago, there was a big to-do about people throwing paint on their yachts lol. Even that was enough to scare them.
If they want to charge people with bioterrorism over pies, then the pie throwers might start throwing brick pies given they will face similar charges.

Did we? Or was this always a rare and remarkable incident, both in that it happened at all and it was captured and preserved for us to talk about today.
Certainly, you can talk about the no less than three different Trump assassination attempts. Or the Luigi Mangione shooting. Or the fatal stabbing of Bob Lee, CPO of Cashapp. Or the assault of Bryan Kobel, CEO of TC BioPharm, after a dispute with his Uber driver. Or the vigilante attack on Paul Pelosi. Or the Doohickey assassination of Shinzo Abe. Or just run the numbers annually for violence targeting C-level officials
tidderuuf@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Easily get shot these days. Most of the big names are surrounded by exSF who are carrying far more firepower in their briefcases than any one of us can ever purchase.
Most of the time they are even carrying firearms that are illegal or never properly gone through NFA. A few rappers and their bodyguard occasionally get a weapons charge but you never see Musks or Fuckerberg get in trouble.
jaybone@lemmy.zip 2 months ago
I seem to recall some video of Musk going through security at a courthouse, and hoping he would slip up with a gun or a bag of cocaine. I’m sure nothing would have happened to him.
UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Without exaggeration, doing it back then risked much the same.
These were brave acts then. They’d be brave acts now.
