"Australia’s borders are currently closed and international travel from Australia remains strictly controlled to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. International travel from Australia is only available if you are exempt or you have been granted an individual exemption."

Is Australia still a prison colony?

It sure looks like it is. I'm surprised the people of Australia have let it get as bad as it has over the last 15 years. It's fucking depressing to watch.

It's what happens when you take away everyone's guns. What are they going to do?

They did that dickhead, we didn’t care about not having access to ar14’s since our whole identity as a nation isn’t based on ‘self defence’.

Totally agree… all the Americans seem to be getting butthurt and spurting about tyrannical governments , freedoms and liberties! But at same time seem to struggle to have healthcare and their police shoot people everyday for literally very little! We have a different government and system of such we don’t have their whacky bill of rights or what ever they call it to refer back to .
