RACIAL DISCRIMINATION ACT 1975 - SECT 18C Offensive behaviour because of race, colour or national or ethnic origin

(1) It is unlawful for a person to do an act, otherwise than in private, if:

(a) the act is reasonably likely, in all the circumstances, to offend, insult, humiliate or intimidate another person or a group of people; and

(b) the act is done because of the race, colour or national or ethnic origin of the other person or of some or all of the people in the group.

Before Abbott wimped the government intended to amend that, in the interest of free speech, to allow people to be offended.

Activist chatterers objected becaues Muslims might be worried, so Abbott blinked. Jewish groups also want 18C to stand unmolested, under the impresion it also protected them.

First They Came for the Jews

First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left
to speak out for me.

~Pastor Martin Niemöller

Community and individuality are not opposites. People cannot survive on their own. When the odds are stacked against you, you must rally with the oppressed and hated.

When a growing oppressive regime is taking hold, you must act, otherwise you will soon face your enemy alone and hopeless.

Strength of community is a strength as much as individualism, as long you are willing to face weaknesses in your own community. Ignoring slacking values will mean that you will be rallied against by those you oppress.

Niemöller affirms we must rally against unhealthy organized regimes. We must also stay vigilant with those that appear to be good natured, as all organisation attracts corruption. Niemöller also warns us that if it is you who are corrupt, then you will face a stronger combined force of foe!

They were a bunch of kids.

Plus, Australia recently disarmed its law-abiding citizens.

Arms are just tools. There are plenty of Israeli veterans whose bare hands are enough.

While arms would help far more Jews protect themselves against such attacks, they must instead rely on striking fear among their attackers. Self defense is preferable, but when it is forbidden, revenge is the best recourse.

Australia, surrounded by water, and full of smart people with a pioneering spirit, has actually imported Muslims. Is this some sort of disease, like whales get when they beach themselves? Is your life lacking without a few street riots? ARE YOU TOTALLY NUTS?!
