Aussie culture has always been on of being “Subjects”, they never broke the mold like Americans did.
This will be interesting to see play out.
They really Effed up when they gave up their guns.
New Zealand has tried the same thing and failed.

A curse upon all Australian police who enforce tyranny. May they die a thousand deaths and may they burn in Hell.

Back to being a penal colony.

Can’t be a penile colony because they’ve self-emasculated.
