Something is wrong, but tremor can be a symptom of a wide range of problems, most not particularly threatening. FWIW I'd include Parkinson's in that group - plenty of people hold high-powered jobs while living for years with Parkinsons. Worth even less, Merckel's tremor doesn't look like Parkinson's to me. I wouldn't worry about Merckel. More than capable of looking after herself as well as her country.
 
This is what the greenies should be sorting out, as well as the constant chant of climate change, at least they could actually do something about the feral cat problem.

They get up in arms about something that contributes 1% to the Worlds emissions, yet probably own a cat.:roflmao:

Cats have been a leading cause of at least 20 of our mammal extinctions over the last 200 years
Heard about the massive feral cats up around Chittering SP?

Yes there is always a few newspaper articles about cougar's or puma's being spotted, I think they are just big feral cats, they can grow very big.
As for cougar's, I've seen a few of them around our local shops.:roflmao:
 
Well that's a subjective assessment. There is a very strong argument for the opposite.
Which bit of the assessment is not subjective? (Come to think of it, can any assessment not be at least partly subjective?) What is not subjective in your assessment of the (an?) argument as "very strong" and what is "the opposite" for which you assert an argument exists?

Does Wayne posting a flip bit of fluff in response to a post count as "breaking news"?

Probably not "breaking news" but many consider Merkel guilty of what could be seen as treason and this is not a wrong word when you let 1.8m foot soldiers of an ideology aiming at your country's destruction crossing into your home soil
Maybe there is karma?
In any case, she is definitively not suffering from heat stroke

The trouble with this sort of thing is that someone will then decide to eradicate cats from the inner suburbs of whatever city where there isn't a wild anything in sight apart from the odd mouse meanwhile doing nothing about actual feral cats in the bush causing mayhem.

Newsflash - even Eckhart Tolle has commented her policies inevitably will "give rise" to fascism. That has always been my subjective opinion also.

Proving to be objectively true though, innit?
 
It could only happen in Amercia ...:) Watch the video
I think he must be related to the current sociopath President.

He Killed an Unarmed Man, Then Claimed Disability
The latest twist in the police shooting of Daniel Shaver.

Two years ago, I wrote about Daniel Shaver, an unarmed 26-year-old who in 2016 was shot to death in a hotel hallway while begging for his life. The killer, Mesa police officer Philip Brailsford, was put on trial for murder. Jurors were not allowed to know that he had scratched “you’re f***ed” into his service weapon. He was acquitted of murder and manslaughter, despite video of as chilling and egregious a police killing as I’ve ever seen.

........That’s right: He killed an unarmed man, then claimed associated trauma to get a paycheck for life. In this effort, he was successful.:eek:

The second story looks at the trial of the police officer who murdered the unarmed prostrate Daniel Shaver while he was begging for his life.
So how did this jury find him not guilty ?:confused:

And if you think that was unbelievable how did this same policeman get away with murder when the jury saw the video of what happened?

Footage of a Police Shooting That Jurors Chose Not to Punish
Daniel Shaver was unarmed and begging for his life. This week, a jury found the police officer who killed him not guilty of murder or manslaughter.

@basilio,
This is the law so i bet you the video was not allowed to be considered, or some other crap.do not blame Trump but the justice system
Jurors have been selected by the 2 sides i believe
 
True but you know what i meant
Unless the family side was not represented and this was a pure administrative aka gov vs police force, in that case, yes justice was not considered
 
Positions of power attract their fair share of psychos. Having a large number of employees like the US police service means there are a lot. PTSD and other mental health issues also crop up.
The US police deals with some of the worst crap known to man.

It doesn't surprise me guys slip through the cracks. It happens here as well.

But when nothing is done about people that slip through the cracks, the cracks get wider.

Thats true, but its not as bad as before.
Things in the past were a lot worse. Camera phones means you don't get away with it as much. Generally its not tolerated. There are a lot more cops that do their duty. Guys like this stain the vast majority that do the right thing.
