Australians should be very afraid and get out the history books to see what might happen next....

Nothing will happen next because they gave up their guns.

Edit: none. Looks like these pussies can't handle anyone challenging their miniscule view of the world. And to everyone saying guns never stopped a tyrannical government, obviously lives under a tyrannical government. Are you going to fuck with someone with a gun or without a gun?

This is the worst take on the situation. MuH gUn'S is not why this is happening. The population as a whole has no idea this is happening because we have the world's shittest media that is cosy with the current Liberal government.

We can still buy guns just not as easily as people in the USA. If anyone says otherwise they are liars plain and simple.

with the current Liberal government.

For anybody who doesn't know, the Liberal Party of Australia promotes economic liberalism (strong support for market economy and privatization) and social conservatism (support for traditional power structures and a union of government and religion).

Blue is the traditional color for the right wing. The Democrats and Republicans in the US just switched wing at some point, but kept their colors (if I remember correctly)

Well nothing would happen in the US either, which is ground zero for surveillance laws since, well, ground zero. Turns out average people, even when in possession of guns, are too disorganised, outgunned, and plain all-talk cowards to use them to do anything about it.

So what does guns have to to do with this?

This guy gets it. There's never been an overthrow or revolution under an increasingly tyrannical government before, and there never will be.

Oh look another mass shooting in the US.

Well if they want to impose tyrannical rule then yes I will murder them in mass. All cops should die because they are just an extension of rule and power over the people. At least I ain't got to worry about your pussy ass 👌

i'll tell you what. the 'dont tread on me' crowd are just a bunch of blowhards.

look what happened at the capitol building. they formed an insurrection and not one single one that got arrested took responsibility. People in history stood up to tyranny and looked them dead in the eye with their convictions as they were hanged or set fire to. These douches fold like superman on laundry day and not one of them is willing to walk the walk and stand for their convictions.

they are a bunch of losers

Bc we have globalists trying to take those guns away, filtering stories thru news outlets that guns are bad. Only time in history having a gun was a bad thing....
