Grumpy Old Nasho

Muslim sons are taught to hate the Jews, and Christians.

They were a concern, but thought to be low risk by Security. Silly Burgess. Islam should be banned from Australia entirely, it's impossibly to control it. A quiet unassuming muslim can be your worst enemy if he's always reading the Qaran.

I'm waiting for the Police to say: "There's no further danger to the Public".

The Security agencies really stuffed up didn't they? Right now Albo is on TV reading an off-the-shelf speech.

This is one job we could be re-conscripted for, something worthwhile. We were told to keep our certificates of discharge in case we were needed again. Well we are needed again now, I would volunteer. What's the latest Army rifle?, I'd take one and get to work.

Oct 7th comes to Australia. Congratulations Albo.

What has Labor done now? Ripping off the taxpayer, that's their game, always has been.

You're dead right about that, I lost. Glad you put it that way. Trump got it right, we were suckers and losers. Let's make sure criminal ballots like that never happen again.

You're being absurd, you're asserting that generations of offspring in a convict line are technically immigrants. Convicts were prisoners in a colony. Their only paper work was a certificate of release from incarceration at the end of their sentence, and certainly had no personal bank account. Had they not been arrested for their misdemeanour back home, they would have still been residing there in Britain, poor, and unable to travel anywhere. Suffice to say I don't subscribe to the lefty progressive's ridiculous assertion that we are a nation of immigrants, and trying to convince us into thinking we have no right to have influence over present and future immigration outcomes. It's bad enough that the major parties have joined to block discussion about it, and that's one of the reasons I've never voted for them.

Does that even make sense? Emigrating to where ever requires a conscious decision on the part of the potential immigrant, and for permission to be given by the receiving nation. To say convicts were immigrants, surmises that the Aboriginals gave them permission to settle here. Nothing could be further from the truth. The convicts were made to settle here by the Poms, with redcoats to ensure a semblance of law and order.

That's right, personally I'm not. And my line weren't either, they were convicts, not immigrants.

There's plenty of Aussie identity out here in the bush. We think "Aussie", we talk "Aussie", and we act "Aussie". Drive out to a rural location and strike up a conversation with a local. If you are Aussie yourself, you'll feel the instant connection of "Australianness", and feel your inherent Aussie identity. Unfortunately it's only in the bush now, the cities have adopted a different identity, what it is, I'm not sure, something strange even they're not sure about.

I'm still not an immigrant.

I think the fine ends up as a form of charity that goes to battered wives and the homeless, which the government caused in the first place. It's a vicious circle, but the fine does more good than my vote ever would, because I could never stomach voting for the dictatorial two party duopoly, they always win no matter what, and they always intend to. And of course, I can't forget the inhuman treatment afforded to me as a conscript, not thanked, not compensated, just treated like trash during and after. I can't vote for any mob who treats young blokes with borderline autism like that, I'm not that forgiving. They can rot in Hell.

I'm not struggling to pay my power bills, but I do have an opinion about them being too high. We were promised lower power costs, then got the opposite.
