Protecting the community from burglars, murderers and blogs
Michael the Police Officer has kindly pointed out to me that it is a criminal offence to solicit money with the intent to purchase drugs and sell them at a profit.
As such, I have amended the previous article accordingly.
I did not mind caving on this request as I find the amended version more amusing than the original.
Also, I actually spent the weekend in jail recently due to unpaid parking fines. Adelaide police are generally a bunch of pricks and when I stated that I was vegetarian, I was given a raw potato to last me the two days. While the hardest part is not being allowed to smoke, declaring that you have a low blood sugar count means they have to bring you cups of coffee or tea when you request them so I requested around a hundred and forty.

Dear Mike,
Thank you for your letter. At no time have I condoned the use of drugs. I simply stated that I wish to purchase and sell them at a profit. I do however understand the importance of censorship. Without an enforced system of guidance from agencies such as yours, people would be forced to exercise their own discretion.
Regards, David.

David, your obvious disrespect for authority doesn't change the fact that soliciting money for the purpose of purchasing and selling drugs is a criminal offence under South Australian law. I advise you to remove the article and I will check that you have done so by 5pm tomorrow.
Yours sincerely, Michael Harding

Dear Michael,
Despite your assumption, I have the highest amount of respect for authority. I actually wanted to become a police officer but failed the IQ test when I arrived on time at the correct building.
While not exactly a police officer, when I was about eight I desperately wanted to be Tom Selleck from Magnum PI. I painted my Standish Selecta-12 bright red and constructed a moustache by clipping a large amount of hair from the neighbour's cat and gluing it to my upper lip. This is how I discovered my allergy to cat hair. Dragged to my neighbour's house, my apology through lips the size of bananas came out as "Imsryfrctnheroffyrcat iwntdtobemgnumpi." I also wanted to be frozen and thawed out in the 25th century due to Wilma Deering's jumpsuit but despite emptying the refrigerator and sitting in it for over an hour, the only result was mild hypothermia and a belting.
I have been considering sitting the police exam again as protecting the community from burglars, murderers and blogs must be very fulfilling. I am fairly fit due to regularly thinking about jogging and I once performed a jumping jack. It was unintentional and involved a spider on the bath mat but still counts. I am also experienced in self defence and recently built a moat. Sometimes, I dress as a French mime and pretend to walk against a strong wind to the delight of those around me. Everybody loves a mime. This skill would obviously come in quite useful during police stealth operations.
Due to restrictive Australian gun laws, I do not have much experience with weapons but I did construct my own bazooka when I was about ten using a length of pipe, a securely tightened end cap, a golf ball and a three to one ratio of chlorine & brake fluid. While the design was flawless, the resulting broken collar bone from the kickback and two inch hole through two plaster walls then a television set brought a swift end to my foray into ballistic research and development.
Regards, David.

David, this isn't the first time we've received complaints regarding your website. You have until 5pm tomorrow to remove the article and I'll be checking your website regularly. You might not take this seriously but I can assure you that we do.
Yours sincerely, Michael Harding

Dear Michael,
I do indeed take the matter seriously and will attempt to facilitate your request by 5pm tomorrow despite the fact that I am extremely busy this weekend. I need to bury the two dead backpackers I have in the spare room as the smell is starting to attract suspicion. And wolves. It is a fairly large job as one of the backpackers is American and will therefore require a hole several sizes larger than normal. On the plus side, the other is from England which obviously means no dental records.
I could hire one of those mini bobcat tractors for the day but will probably just let the children out for a game of 'best digger gets food this week'. I am sick of hearing "I want my parents" and "Please don't lock me in the spare room again, it smells funny" but many hands, no matter how small, make light work.
Also, I was watching Crime Stoppers last night and was wondering if you need anyone to play the perpetrators in crime re-enactments? I have several years acting experience convincing co-workers that I am listening and care about their relationship issues or what they did on the weekend while really thinking about robots or what would happen if a car made of diamond drove really fast into a wall made of diamond. I would prefer to play either a black professor or an Asian bus driver.
Regards, David.

I suggest you spend the time deleting the page as you have been requested to do rather than writing about dead backpackers. What is wrong with you?

Dear Mike,
My apologies for not getting back to you earlier, I was busy torching my vehicle. Did you know that if you report it stolen the insurance company gives you money to buy a new one? I usually do this every eleven months as it saves having to pay for an annual service.
I do not have dead backpackers in the spare room. I was just being silly. There is no space in there due to the hydroponics system, pots and bags of nutrients. I read somewhere that it is ok to have up to three hundred and seventy marijuana plants for personal use. Correct me if I wrong. As I do not have a backyard and the plants take up most of the apartment, I sleep in a hammock stretched between two of the larger trunks. It is like sleeping in a jungle and sometimes I pretend I am a baby monkey. Due to the 24 hour UV lighting, my electricity bill this month is nearly four thousand dollars but I have an awesome tan.
In regards to the website, rather than deleting the article, I will amend it to be about cats. Is this acceptable to you?
Regards, David.

It isn't legal to grow even one plant which I'm sure you already know. Possession of less than 100g or one plant has been decriminalised but still carries a fine. Changing the page to be about cats is fine. I will be checking to see if it has been done by 5pm. I strongly suggest that you do so.

Ours. I've had enough of your nonsense. If the page is not removed or changed within the next 20 minutes I will be filing an order under the e-crimes act of 2006 to have the website shut down.

Done.
But somehow, David Thorne's website is gone. So I'd like to say a great big "fuck you, fuck you very fucking much" to the cunts in the South Australian police force. It sounds like that's a fucking shit hole you want to give a wide fucking berth to.
And Dave, if you're reading this: Blogger isn't as "pretty" as your website was, but the yanks will tell the Australian police to go fuck themselves with a spoon if they try that shit. Best of British luck to you!
Update: It's cached here.
Update 2: It's back!

Shame, it was a great site. Another victory for bullying authorities..

He's a crook. I paid my $5 and I'm still waiting for my cat.
South Australia is a funny place. It's thanks to the views of one man, their Attorney General, that all of the other states in Australia have such difficulty with computer games aimed at adults. That there's a cop with a similar humourless and moralising attitude and a tendency towards censorship comes as absolutely no surprise at all.
Last laugh (so far) to David:0)
The "Grubby Tenant" thread is worth a read, can't see me getting much work done until the webstasi shut him down again.
I've just come off the site after spending the last hour reading some of the other posts. I had to stop as I had a severe stomach ache from laughing so much. This guy is a genius.
The whole thing was a hoax.

Funny, but a complete fabrication, including the 'site suspension'
Did you actually read that?
It may well have been suspended. I doubt it.
It is now not suspended. That's why you can see the briefcase.
Doh!
Anyway, ask David, He'll say either way.
He's not a troll, he's a quite a funny chap, followed him for years.
Australia is a hole that the people have given away to the elite for a vegamite sandwich...you people better start doing something for yourselves you lazy barbie firing yolanda bangers...
Harsh but fair.
I've bought the 27b/6 iPhone app, you can get uncensored stuff on that.
It mentions both drugs and cats.

Spook!
