I'm Shipping Up To Boston - Dropkick Murphys

Dropkick Murphys perform this song on the waterfront in East Boston. While hanging with hooligans and runnin' from the cops.

All #NZTwits concerned about the validity of #NZPol electoral law and democracy, particularly in light of the #DropKick legislation being introduced to disenfranchise #NewZealand voters from having their civil right to exercise their democratic right to vote in elections, needs to watch this from NZ lawyer, Tania Waikato on #BHN last night.

Yup, that’s the story I heard.

I wonder if David Seymour is going to describe the #NZPol Attorney General as a #DropKick?

The New Gladiators

Hockey includes fighting. This should be obvious because they have a penalty called fighting which they use quite commonly. But in hockey the name fighting is of a very narrow usage. What they really mean is boxing.

If hockey were to be more inclusive they would include other types of fighting. Like martial arts. The first thing hockey fans would notice, would be the kicks. I bet the opposing team would scream bloody murder if kicks were used against them. And you know, it could lead to quite a bloody murder of one of their players.

Skates work best when they are sharp. One time in grade school, we were playing hockey without equipment, but with skates and sticks. I got pushed from behind and ended with my forehead on someone’s skate blade. That’s the only stitch I’ve ever needed. The doctor had to fix it and stop the bleeding.

Once while I was waiting in the emergency room in Toronto, a hockey player came in with a towel around his neck. His injury was a skate blade to the neck. I was ill but wanted the staff to take him first. They did. I wonder just how many stitches he needed. Or if they had to use something more immediate than stitches.

Anyhow these were accidents with skate blades. I wonder how bad it would be if deliberate attacks with these blades were more commonplace. What would happen with a roundhouse? Or a drop kick? I believe that the tough hockey players wouldn’t look so tough anymore.

It’s all fun and games in hockey until the Beijing Serial Killers (really a kung fu dojo with an interest in hockey) win a Stanley Cup through the dead and maimed bodies of the rest of the NHL. Perhaps after all this carnage, the NHL would ban fighting amongst its players. But probably not. After all, the viewership would likely be up.

Like usual, the NHL would say they were policing themselves. Sure that star goalie died because of a kick to the neck. But the other player was suspended for 10 games. That’ll show him. At least more so than 25 years in prison for 2nd degree murder. I bet he wouldn’t do it again for at least 3 games after his suspension.

And that is how the new gladiators start. The public might love it so much that it wouldn’t stop till after the collapse of our civilization. You want more emotion in hockey? Many deaths will indeed bring such an event about.

Weiser Dropkick gegen Trump und Musk: Punkband legt sich mit MAGA-Fans an

Die Dropkick Murphys mucken gern mal gegen Autoritäten auf – so nun auch beim Konzert in Boston gegen Trump und Musk. Die Sperrung ihres X-Accounts ist aber keine Konsequenz dessen, wie Sänger Ken Casey nun klarstellte. Denn die Band verließ das Portal schon 2022.
