Rocking strong; its Bundalong'

Though small in size you stood strong' and wise
In your answer to him, of your intended demise!
And that of our fair state.' In our great land.'
For right here i recount of that old 'dingo dan'

He'd paid the blood money, he's bought a plot'
Oh how my blood boils.' And i can tolerate a lot.)
Its plain he had a dirty plan, to  cottaging; that spot; on prime Murray river bank land'

Well it did not come good.' No not at all.!
For a true blue builder,  rejected that call
He came like a demon..yet left like a cur.!
 On that; may freedom loving Aussies all concur!

Keep shunning the dingo.' May  mange be upon him'
I praise our publican, may all blessings be on him.!

Great places; too much development will indeed destroy them. The indigenous populations have their chore cut out for them. Just going by what I can find out on the internet, Bundalong tavern looks like a great family restaurant/bar. Excellent poetry.

Hello Joe Dimino, i listened in the 90s to the radio and t v shows as they found every adverse act with guns in the world to build a narrative to remove guns from law abiding Aussies.' We never had the ammount of guns the US did privatley 'but we had a good ammount' I guess at 12/14 million its down to 4 million now.' And they want to take those.' Also you are so right about having the women with us..Yet thats why there is so much about women having a career.' It shortchanges them in the end.' By then all lose out.'

You need the support of women -- men backing you are not the solution. You need women with sons, whom they deeply love, to sway the electorate back toward freedom of expression with personal dignity.

The people should never have allowed the government to restrict gun ownership. Totalitarian rule is inevitable. No way of stopping it.

I see now...it's like that in US also; people in political power, big downers skate. Trump administration has found billions in fraud. They are trying to put a stop to it, but the evil groups involved will not go down without a dirty fight. Two attempts on his life already.
