Australia today used helicopters and the army to enforce its 'Zero Covid' lockdown, as thousands of police flooded Sydney city centre to enforce the rules and hand out $500 fines for those not wearing a mask. Sirens blared across the city and a draconian message was broadcast from the skies, as millions were told: 'This is public health order—do not break rules—you will be found and fines issued.'(Snip) Some 250 fines, each worth $500, were issued across the city today, with one man arrested after travelling on trains outside his local government area without a reasonable excuse.

Helicopters? Increasingly, I think our Civil War II may turn out to be WW III. The Globalists will not give up since the prize is so big.

The globalists want a supine Australia because it's close to China and because the people are anti Chinese rule. The populace is disarmed and allowed themselves to be after a ginned up incident or two. If you had an armed citizenry, you would not have this situation.

Helicopters are vulnerable to ground fire. Except in Australia where the population willingly surrendered their guns.

There are 2 approaches in the College Model that was used to formulate Covid policy. One is to do nothing, which results in a rapid high spike in deaths, followed by a sharp, rapid decline. The other is instituting mitigation mandates, which results in a long, long slow curve. Curiously enough, the end result as far as number of deaths is nearly identical. Sweden chose the first, most of the rest of the world chose the second. As of last week, Sweden went 2 weeks without a single Covid death. Their vaccination rate is 32%.

Yes #6, in Australia the law gives lip service to the idea that an individual may own a gun. The reality is that 98% of the population will never be allowed to own a gun. Most of the guns allowed are shotguns and single-shot rifles (yes a few handguns). The issue is that to obtain a gun the applicant must be approved and approved for the class of gun they can own. This is not a background check but instead to verify if the applicant has a "valid" reason to purchase a gun. Self-defense and self-protection do NOT qualify for being valid reasons to issue a license to own a gun. Australia has become a liberal nanny country, that if you value personal freedom, should never be an example to aspire towards.

Canberra, 01 August RUBBISH CAN FIRE-- MORRISON -- MARTIAL LAW! Says PM Morrison, "No choice, but to impose 24/7/365 (except in Leap Years) martial law nationwide." Precipitated by a early-hours rubbish can fire beside the desk of the maintenance man, PM Morrison blamed the blaze, quickly snuffed by a leather desk blotter, on anti-vaxxers, and capitalist road anti-revolutionaries. "I take no joy in ordering that all persons in the country keep to their domiciles, until no diseases are present in the population. Air drops of toilet paper, rice, beans, and beer will commence upon application to Centrelink."

Another country falls to the fascists. Its a shame. I always admired Australia. Now I just view them with a mixture of pity and contempt. Is there nobody left who values liberty? Is it up to us again? Fine. But the next time some weenie tells me how great foreign cultures are, I'm going to flatten his beak.

Mbeubeuss is one of the biggest rubbish tips in Africa and Senegal’s largest open cemetery for murdered children. In the past three years, the bodies of 32 infants have been recovered from the site by the waste-pickers who work there. Looking at the high rate of infanticide in Senegal, it seems the main reasons for it are shame about pregnancy outside marriage and a loss of traditional support for young women. Religious conservatism, economic hardship and a lack of access to contraception and sex education in Senegal are leaving many women I talk to feeling isolated.

New Orleans—Five people were wounded by gunfire in a French Quarter shooting Sunday morning, according to NOPD officials. Police have detained one person in connection with the shooting. EarthCam's Bourbon Street live feed captured the sound of several gunshots that prompted weekend French Quarter crowds to flee the area. Minutes after the shooting, members of the New Orleans Police Department arrived at the scene. New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell and NOPD Superintendent Shaun Ferguson both made it to the scene of the Bourbon Street shooting; both left without giving a statement to members of local media outlets who were there.

So it’s not surprising he’s showing his true colors with only a few months left.” Police Commissioner Dermot Shea briefed the media outside Jacobi Medical Center around 4 a.m. Saturday on the status of the wounded lieutenant, who was shot late Friday night in the Bronx while wrestling with accused gunman and documented

People who do not comply with Covid-19 pandemic restrictions are mostly male, more extroverted and more likely to put their own self-interests above those of others, suggests a new study of behaviours internationally. University of Sydney researchers assessed behaviours and attitudes towards Covid regulations in 1,575 people in Australia, Canada, the UK, and the US between April and May last year, during the first wave of the pandemic. Their study, published in the journal Plos One, found that about 10% of people reported being non-compliant with restrictions. These ind

This is a bald-faced lie. The officer hid in the shadows, did not utter a word, and then shot Ashli Babbitt in the neck as she climbed through a window. She was unarmed and was not a threat.
