Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Australian Cops Open Fire on Protesters

DBT, How do you feel bout the lockdowns in Australia? Is it country wide or just in the major urban hubs? Also, are you free to criticize the government on a site like this, or would you have to worry about retribution? Just wondering, don’t know much about how Ausies are feeling these days…

I prefer to see you lot comment as it gives an outside perspective and shews that you pricks are also thinking of us and are interested...we just get sick of the incessant use of the same hoary old rubbish mouthed by the same ill-informed twats.

As for rubbishing our government and coppers, there is absolutely nothing you can say that Australians haven't voiced louder, more profanely, and with more feeling.

Distrust of authority is far deeper ingrained here than it appears to be in the US, we just aren't as vociferous about it.

I will field this if you don't mind...mainly we are just fucking well confused and irritated by the total lack of relevant information. There seems to be a lot of decisions being made that make no sense at all, almost like no one is game to tell us what is really going on.


And it is worth mentioning that most Australians are happy for the government and it's minions to go fuck themselves.



added. It is also worth noting that here the country is run by incompetence and base stupidity, whereas the US appears to be run by base greed and graft. Ours attempt to use graft but that stupidity thing keeps cropping up...except Vic cops, they seem to have it down pat.

Total media blackout in fact...I learnt about it on the 'fire.

FIXT

So, are you now going to say that BLM should have used firearms and shot at coppers?

You really are becoming increasingly weird and unhinged.

Yeah the coppers were really hard on the BLM bunch .....laffin

I can criticize the government without concern for retribution. The long-term benefit of lockdown is debatable, probably causing more harm than good in the long term and an opportunity for those in power to broaden and deepen their control over citizens that these elected officials are supposed to represent rather than rule.

We have more in common with you guys than we have differences. I really wish you all the best with this.

I have a lot of respect and faith in the Australian people. They’re a tough resilient and capable bunch and they’ve been faithful allies during some dark days. I think watching and learning from the tribulations they’re experiencing right now would be wise for us as it seems many parallels exist between their situation and ours. The Gun argument is rather week because I don’t recall anyone grabbing their firearms and mounting an assault (other than the chickenshit groid pig at the capital murdering Ashley Babbit) when our elections were stolen. Reaching for the gun isn’t always the wisest first response.

Very true, many situations exist in both countries all with the same result, Rights are lost and no one does much of anything beyond a march and some complaining.
Which is all that will ever happen

didnt see many americans resist when unelected officials told you to close business, stay inside and watch your economy collapse. Pretty sure you and your leaders didnt even get a vote on that

In fact in the 20,000 odd peices of gun legislation the US has had since the feds made you get tax stamps for machine guns and silencers 80 years ago, I dont recall any resistance there either.

best not throw rocks when you live in a glasshouse son

When the cops start opening up on the public, its not long before the public will start opening up on the cops...

and there will be more of the public than the PD.

I didn't realise that civilians could buy tear gas over there

At which point the Feds send in the Army?

There's always a way out of a difficult situation, some are just more ineffective than others.

That....

except they voted to take their guns away

so you are saying they have no guns.....even though the it has been stated a scihtt load of times that is false.....why spread a lie....bob

as one fellow said, if it were not for the police they hire to enforce their rules, politicians would just be idiots with bad ideas
