Your reply is an oxymoron; I think that you show up on that part of the poll…in bed with sis.

Well, if your sister looks like you, I have never been drunk enough. EVER!!
And, you wouldn't know an oxymoron if you saw it on your toilet paper.

Perhaps it will be different when the Chinese decide to subjugate you? Perhaps the U.S. should just stand by idle next time you are invaded....

Sensible Australians fully expect the USA to stand by idly just like you did in WWII (for god’s sake your presidents have told us that time after time), all the while raking in as much profit as you can from the misery of others, not that I have a problem with you making these profits and screwing over your allies, after all humans are a parasitic plague species.

But then the enemy will spoil all your fun when they attack USA assets just like in WWII, then the propaganda machine will start up once again, spouting crap about America “saving” Australia.

We don’t need America, and a growing percentage (48% at the moment) don’t want America as an ally.

Oh my, after reading this post, I have changed my mind. I at first thought you merely an ungrateful wretch without the honor to admit you would be speaking Jap without us.
Now I realize that you are truly a slug that spills vile excrement out of your large oral cavity with bits of petulant vintage vinegar.
You wouldn't know your Solomons from your Marianas.
Fortunately, well read people understand that as a fool you are not entertaining and as a historian you have a large red nose.
Even your grade school aborigines are better read than you.
Which is an insult to your aborigines.
To your fine aborigines, I apologize.
I am sure they are insulted that I mentioned them in the same post as you.

Poor fellow

I disagree! We have more guns and easier access. You could buy a gun at 2:00 in the morning at walmart.
And the reason we won't allow gun control is because of the rapture. We know when Jesus returns there will be all of those "unsaved" trying to get into our houses. Kind of like Night of the Living Dead.

Really? being as how the NICS check places are only staffed from 9:00am to 9:00pm - I am wondering how that could be...

In fact, all I did once is walk into a Wal-Mart and ask to look at one at 10:00pm - was told they couldn't sell antying that late. No kidding!

Yes that's the way, if you can’t argue then change the subject.

The aussie sheep now have no right to defend themselves from their criminals. They don't have to worry about another invasion, they are destroying themselves from the inside. They gave up their guns for anything but "target practice" at government approved locations a decade ago, and now aussie studies show that it was for NOTHING! It did nothing to improve their crime, which is actually INCREASING.

Oh well, all you can say to them is Baaaaaaaahhhhhh sheep, BAAAAAHHHHHHH!!

Sensible Austrilians would not be talking this kind of nonsense. You do not qualify as a sensible Austrilian. You been too far out in the outback. The roos or that funny grass has got to you. True American had help when they marched through all your boondocks running the roos and japs out. They had a few sensible and brave Austrilians marching with them. You wouldn't qualify.

If you click on the Margate, Australia under our dear friend Cautiously optimistics screen name you will be brought to Australias laundry list of forums. Oddly he comes here to judge Americans.

And by the way there tough guy nice try, no banana. I didn’t change the subject. YOU decided to boast how “GUN’ violence has gone down by the removal of your guns. Well of course they did! But you so conveniently forget to mention that violent crime via knives, bats, strong-arm etc. has gone into orbit! I just happened by to expose your attempt at "rope a dope" Argue with you? Don’t flatter yourself. I don’t have to argue with you. We have the 2nd amendment that preserves our RIGHT to arms and you have nothing. We are citizens,.. you are subjects.

As there never were any Japanese troops in Australia’s “boondocks”(other than POW’s) those “True American’s” must have been on some pretty strong drugs.

Click on it and you will find among the Australian forums that there is a thread called “It's the Guns, Stupid“ which happens to be this thread.

Nice try drongo

Where on this thread have I ever made any reference to gun law in Australia? Where have I made any reference to gun violence in Australia? In fact where have I made any reference what so ever to Australia in relation to guns or the topic of this thread (it’s the gun’s stupid).

As per usual you cant answer the argument so you change the subject.

Australia has much lower violent crime rates (and have been slowly declining for years) than America and our murder rate has dropped since gun control, and we didn’t have to lock up the highest percentage of our population in the world to do it, unlike America.

May I please direct your attention to a few differences between Australia and America? You folks in Australia don't have millions of illegal Mexicans, blacks, and other races with criminal inclinations. It makes sense to say that America has more crime, more guns, and more criminals than Australia and many other countries. Here in New Mexico about 80% of us favor the right to bear weapons, and anyone with a clean record can get a permit for a concealed weapon. We also have a very high crime rate with a very high percentage of drugs, drugs, and more drugs - the Mexicans are really bad drugies and account for the most crimes. I feel much more comfortable with a defense weapon, than no weapon at all.

"During the Second World War, the Japanese flew 64 raids on Darwin and 33 raids on other targets in Northern Australia.

"On 19 February 1942, 188 Japanese planes were launched against Darwin, whose harbour was full of Allied ships. It was the largest Japanese attack since Pearl Harbour, 7 December 1941, and followed a reconnaissance flight on 10 February 1942. On that day there were 27 Allied ships in the harbour and approximately 30 aircraft at the Darwin Civil and RAAF airfields.

"The USS Houston convoy departed Darwin on 15 February 1942, followed by a Japanese flying boat which later engaged in an airstrike. The USS Peary returned to Darwin on 19 February after an encounter with a possible Japanese submarine. On 19 February 1942 there were 46 ships packed into Darwin Harbour.

"From the first raid on 19 February 1942 until the last on 12 November 1943, Australia and its allies lost about 900 people, 77 aircraft and several ships. Many military and civilian facilities were destroyed. The Japanese lost about 131 aircraft in total during the attacks.

"At the time, there were many rumours alluding to the Australian Government's suppression of information about the bombings - it was thought that reports of casualties were intentionally diminished to maintain national morale.

"Local sources estimated that between 900 and 1100 people were killed. For many years, government censorship limited coverage of the event to protect public morale in the southern states of Australia.

"What lead to the attacks?

"During the 1930s, Japan invaded and occupied large parts of China. By 1941 Japan also controlled Indochina (a federation of French colonies and protectorates in South East Asia). In December 1941, Japan bombed the Americans at Pearl Harbour and entered the Second World War. Within ten weeks, Japan controlled Hong Kong, Malaya, Singapore and the Australian territory of New Britain (Rabaul)...."

Have some more TRUTH coming your way as well, IDIOT....

"In February 1942, Japanese Admiral Yamamoto, who had planned the successful attack on Pearl Harbor, proposed an immediate invasion of Australia. He had just implemented his bombing raids on Darwin in the Northern Territory. He pleaded with the Japanese General Staff, to land two Japanese Army Divisions on the northern coastline of Australia which was very poorly defended. They were to follow the north-south railway line to Adelaide, thus dividing Australia into two fronts. Once Adelaide had been taken, a second force would land on the south east coast of Australia and drive northwards to Sydney and southwards to Melbourne.

"Yamamoto's plan appeared to be a diversionary invasion plan rather than a plan to occupy Australia. He wanted to draw large American forces away from launching attacks on the Japanese Island chain far to the north of Australia.

"General Yamashita agreed with Yamamoto's Invasion Plan and even volunteered to lead the invasion. However, the plan was opposed by Japanese Prime Minister, General Tojo, as he believed that there were no contingency plans considered for Yamamoto's Invasion Plan. General Tojo was concerned that the Japanese merchant fleet was extended to its limit >>>>>and the Americans could readily divert their B-17 Flying Fortresses to Sydney to destroy the invading forces<<<<<....
