Can one of you Australian members post a current picture of a crowded event or bar with majority unmasked attendees?
I’d like to believe you guys when you say these reports are false.
Like these you mean, from Thursday in Sydney?

Did they really tan his hide when he died Clyde and left it hanging on the shed?

Here's how tightly restricted we are right now in Sydney:
Yesterday I drove to the office. Worked for the day, with my colleagues. Stopped at lunchtime to go out with one of them for lunch at a nearby restaurant. Walked around a bit. Drove home via the shops, picked up a few things. None of that required a mask or anything.
Today I walked up to the local school to vote in the local elections, in person, safe in the knowledge that our elections don't permit post-midnight dumps of ballot papers, hackable counting machines or other shenanigans. Unless you have a damn good reason, you turn up in person and vote on a paper ballot, and someone counts the papers in the presence of representatives of the candidates.
I spoke to the neighbours on the way back, out on the street, and I'm about to pop out for a drive. Might swing by a mate's place too, because we are planning a few days hunting next week.
Yeah, its like a prison ;-)

Having lived in a Queensland suburb for a couple of year my biggest gripe was the price of my wife's smoke.

Did they really tan his hide when he died Clyde and left it hanging on the shed? Apparently, but Fred had only acted as requested.
Whatever you said...everyone knows you are a lying jerk. That's a bold assertion. Point out where you think I lied. Well?

Yeah, its like a prison ;-) Wasting your time Dan...these morons are peering out at others so they don't have to look at the mess they are in. I routinely read your posts about what’s going on in Australia. Your account differs greatly from what we see on the news and accounts documented like those shown here above from social media. If the Australian members here didn’t dispute what I’ve seen, I’d believe exactly what I’ve seen, so don’t get your panties all bunched up when others here post “inconvenient” facts about what’s happening in your country. You seem to think that when Americans do so that they are simply bashing Australia when nothing could be further from the truth. We have genuine concern about what’s happening worldwide, especially in societies that we admire. We’re cautious about what’s possibly coming here. Your continual “finger pointing” about the bullshit we are enduring in America as a rebuttal to the facts on the ground in Australia doesn’t work. We KNOW and freely admit that things are going the wrong way here politically and are in direct conflict with the principles of our Founding. Unless everything we see about Australia is complete BS (gun confiscation, Covid concentration camps, and other BS) you’d be wise to be honest about it. We are on the same side. I know for a fact the stringent gun restrictions in Australia from my experience on the NSCA USA Shooting Team. Guns had to be locked up at the club during events and out of competitor’s control (even the Australian Team)
The people wringing their hands over Trump's rhetoric don't know what time it is in America.

So here is a question for you...do you think those at an international shoot should wander about with a pistol in their pocket? I ask as you seem to think you should be allowed to...I would also point out that we do not lock our firearms away when we at the local range. And lastly...follow the others turd's posts and you will see that we are not on the same side. added...and oh, you may be aware of what a mess your country is in, the others don't seem to have the slightest clue.

I’d be interested in the thoughts of Australians regarding this or a rebuttal to the article based on the truth if in fact the article isn’t true. It seems that instead of a refutation they get collectively indignant and start throwing insults around. Another thing I’ve noticed lately is that instead of confirming or denying the article or commentary they try to draw some theoretical equivalence between their situation and ours. I’ll be the first to admit that what we’re witnessing in this country currently is abhorrent to our Constitution and anathema to freedom BUT we are working within the system of checks and balances that our Founding Fathers created. That system as imperfect as it is gives us a chance to try to remedy it before taking up arms and revolting. Our Founders recognized that it was a forgone conclusion that from time to time through the centuries the “tree of Liberty would need to be refreshed with the blood of Patriots and tyrants” which is why our 2 amendment is vitally important. The 2A protects the 1A and should cause our government to fear us rather than us fear our government. Because of the importance and gravity of the 2A we don’t take it or our responsibility under it lightly nor do we use it as justification for ignoring the checks and balances and going straight to arms. It likely will take a significant action to change the course of our country because of the evil but powerful forces that are controlling it as well as most major 1st world countries, Australia included. When and if that were to happen it’ll be because we’ve exhausted our options under the system and because the system is corrupt and it no longer serves the people, doesn’t have consent of the people and has been destructive to our principles…..
Australians like to draw comparisons to America and that’s awful sweet but the reality is that we still have our freedoms despite them being constantly under attack and we still have the fight in FRONT of us. Australians gave up….any fight they had is well behind them and in their rear view mirror, they lost before they started and whatever their masters allow them to have, whatever bones they’ve thrown to the subjects is simply temporarily placate them. It seems to work for them…being allowed only the privileges they trust themselves with gives on the false impression of being footloose and fancy free…

Just too damned stupid to recognise that New York has far more draconian firearms laws and that Australia is not a part of the USA.

Oh...are you suggesting that the USA isn't in serious trouble? And I ask that because when Donald Trump led you the USA was on top of the world, but since you found out that your vote doesn't mean squat anymore your socialist/commie leadership (seriously funny by the way) couldn't organise a f uck in a whorehouse with a fist full of gold.
