It's pretty cool how Australia freed Europe of Hitler, rescued millions from Ebola, brought down the Berlin wall, invented the internet and gave the world access, built NATO to protect Western Europe from Stalin, defeated Imperialism and communism, rebuilt east Asia and western Europe, liberated Kuwait, provided the majority of scientific and medical breakthroughs, and given the world access to it;s GPS sattelites.

Well done, blokes.
“Just a few off the top of my head, in recent history (since 1950s):

  • Invaded other countries, declared war, and allowed civilians to die in the war that they caused for business interests (example: Iraq, when VP Cheney had business interests in oil)
  • Drafted young men of color to get wounded and die in their wars without even protecting their right to vote (Black soldiers in Vietnam)
  • Distribute propaganda in other countries against democratically elected leaders because those leaders didn’t suit American business interests (example: Jacobo Árbenz in Guatemala because he no longer allowed the United Fruit Company to control the country)
  • Overthrown democratically elected leaders in other countries (for no other reason except they were too socialist for our taste) and installed their own puppet leaders (example: overthrow of Salvador Allende, the democratically elected President of Chile, and replaced him with Augusto Pinochet, a dictator that committed many human rights violations).
  • Looked the other way when these puppet regimes, or regimes we have close business tied with, committed terrible human rights violations (example: El Mozate massacre in El Salvador, and we continue to do business with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia)
    •A health care system that allows Americans to suffer and die from diseases that are preventable and have treatments that are well-known how to manufacture, all because they prefer to prioritize the profits of Big Pharma over the lives of people. (example: the average cost of insulin without insurance. In this day and age, people should not be dying from diabetes in this country but they do

Well said. I was a pawn during the VP Cheney stuff.
Next time I go down under, I'm looking you up.

I've been to Australia a few times. Do they allow aborigines in the white establishments now? Because they didn't when I was there in the 90's. One actually walked into a bar I was in, and the bartender ran him off. Was crazy, but not my country. You know what I did? I shut the fuck up and drank my beer.
I’ve lived here my entire life and aborigines can go wherever they damn well please EXCEPT a bar or a bottle shop before 2pm. And that’s only in primarily indigenous regions. And why, because In these rural places where they don’t work and just hang out all day there’s nothing better to do than get pissed and beat up on their women and children. I lived in Darwin for some time and the amount of aboriginal women I saw sporting casts on their arms legs wrists was insane. Nearly everyday I would see an aboriginal woman like this. So no, in certain areas where there are high numbers of indigenous Occupants they may not begin to write themselves off until after noon. Other than that I pity the establishment who would refuse entry to someOne purely for the fact that they were aboriginal. It’s unacceptable here and not a common practice.

Dude needs to grow himself some bud and relax. Them aussi prices got him hott
Growing good buds takes effort takes time takes a minor level of skill, takes attention to detail takes money and again takes TIME. “Them Aussie prices” are well reflective of all the above and so they should be. Fuck going to all that effort to be rewarded in peanuts.

Lmao, and you stand to do how many years in the clink for your 4k a lb? Whatever my dude. I’ll keep fighting my government and live happily and safely doing so. Can’t say the same for the rest of the world.
Slap on the wrist and not much more. My ex was done with 19 monsters 7wks in flower (was heartbreaking), and received one year good behaviour no fine no time.

Can't reason and use common sense on a cuntry (sic) that glorifies stupid people that can catch or throw/kick a ball and bullies people (nerds) that actually have brains. No prom date for you geek losers.

So moronic its comical.

Better be careful, they might start a war with us because we have gold and oil. And then say it was stopping terrorism.

Sounds like our aborigines. We call them 'Native Americans'.
Have we passed racism yet?
Out of all the places I've been on this planet. I liked AU the most. Why? Because it felt like the US. I don't know if you have been to a third world country. I know that Bali is kind of like our Florida for spring breakers. Good times in Bali, too. Where was I?

Lols come on dude I wouldn’t go that far. You need to remember you are on an American site that no one forces u to be on and should probably show some respect. You could always join ozstoners..?

Lol, 3 pages of abuse toward me, because I have a different opinion to them? and you expect me to be respectful? Fuck that. I don't lie down for nobody. This literally started because I said it wouldn't happen in Australia. Because people wouldn't stand by and let the cop kneel on his neck till he passed out and died. All hell broke loose because they all took it out of context.

Once they quit the bullshit posts. I'll go back to chilled out me.

Delete the thread and be done with it. I've apologised and told them to get over it atleast 3 times now. But they keep going.

@Venus Dunno why you stick up for them. They speak to you like shit and only want you for your pics.

Anyway... finish it now. Or keep going, doesn't bother me either way.

Let’s not dishonour the memory of the sacrifice of numerous countries to liberate Europe from the clutches of Adolf Hitler hence why it was called the “Allies” and was a combined effort relevant to the countries resources. And it’s worth mentioning Australian soldiers fought alongside American troops during Vietnam when other major players sat dormant . During the recent Californian fires Australia sent fire fighters to assist in the effort and during our last horrific bushfire Summer Canada and America helped us doing the same.

So what do people want? An isolationist America? Cool. Let’s see how that works out for everyone. Let’s let the radical religious nuts have complete freedom and backing from Middle Eastern governments. Let’s let China continue to buy up land and ports all over the world and hope that we never come to war. Ya know, not prepare for the worst, and leave ourselves completely vulnerable. It’s easy to cite all these examples where the US got it wrong, but unfortunately there is a global strategic warfare that hasnt ended just because the wall came down in 89. Feel free to choose sides though. Good luck with your allegiances.
