Terrible and avoidable'

From violence give us release
No excuse for the shootings
Near Bondi's sandy beach.'

Its not so to me Sara.. Allowing unchecked wholesale immigration In the currant volatile World climate..I beleive the corrent government has allowed domestic reality to Rise to a level? That allows fertile ground for such terrible acts also i wonder if it gives an Excuse for the Gaza situation. And Isreals intentions?

We will have many more, unfortunately in the US. The Obama/Biden administration let tens of thousand very violent people into our nation. Fortunately in Arizona we are yet permitted to defend ourselves and families...in other major states like California and New York, you get criminally prosecuted for doing so. Disgrace.

Its the same framework Joe Dimino In Aus now if your home is..Not even burgled.' Its called home invasion now so if could be four or more attackers.' You have to match the weapon being used against you. So you cannot get a 12in knife if its closest if the other person has an 8in knife..If you do you will be arrested.' So we see a continuation a mirror to California & New York.' Wef rules.?
