Parliament House roll: Hundreds tumble down lawns before public is turfed out

Hundreds roll down lawns of Parliament House before security fence is built


Australia's Parliament House was built under a hill with a lawn on top so people could metaphorically and literally stand over the government. Over the years it's become a tradition for visiting kids to roll down the hill. They've just closed the lawns to the public because terrists, creating an additional bit of unintentional symbolism and spurring a protest on the last day the lawns were open. Said protest took the form of hundreds of people rolling down the hill.

Probably because, like most current countries, its population just seems to love electing a violent jackass and excuses all his hosed up behaviors no matter how extreme

How do you question a parrot? Will the prosecutor be allowed to treat it as hostile?

How do you cross examine a parrot?

What I’m saying is that a parrot is more like a piece of evidence than a witness.

Red Deer man punches cougar at Tim Hortons to save dog

[...]

"I could see the cougar going for him, so I got between him and the cougar and started swinging and screaming at it, and called for my brother and friend to come give a hand," Gibb said. "And then I reached down for the closest, biggest stick that I could find and I ran back into the trees to go fight the cougar."

Within minutes, both dogs were back in the safety of Gibb's truck, and the cat disappeared into the bush.

"I was surprised to hear that the owner took the quick action and it's probably what saved the dog's life in this case," said [RCMP] Sgt. Jack Poitras, who said the cougar was located in the woods nearby and killed. "I wouldn't recommend everybody wrassle with a cougar, but in this case it worked for the best."
