Australia deploys helicopters, hundreds of troops to keep people at home in strict new lockdowns in Sydney

Unreal.

[Deo volente]

In a nice bit of literary irony, a helicopter hovered in the courtyard outside the room where the protagonist of Orwell's 1984, Winston Smith, and his girlfriend were hiding. They were then arrested by jackbooted thugs who climbed in through the window.

[sauropod]

Sure it will. Aussies turned in all their guns.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Not to worry. We aren’t far behind.

[EBH]

Melbourne and Victoria went into lockdown yesterday as well.

[Vigilanteman]

The Aussies have not gotten around to welding apartment doors shut. Yet.

[Savage Beast]

Today the coronavirus. Tomorrow the lame excuse du jour. The next day, dissent--of any kind. Then come the gulags. Where will they put them? The desert? Tasmania? Antarctica?

[RinaseaofDs]

Kind of a brilliant move.

Everyone is looking at HK, and the Chinese invade Australia. Nobody’s got a gun.

It would be over very quickly.

However, if the US wasn’t already directly working with China, our subs could make logistics a real issue for them. So could our frigates and destroyers.

What is happening? NONE OF THIS is happening in the SE US. We are doing just fine. If they bring helicopters on us, it’s going to be civil war.

[Outlaw76]

Ever wonder what would happen after they managed to disarm a modern first world nation?

Yep, same stuff that happens in 2nd and 3rd world nations.

Tyranny.

[M Kehoe]

Hi.

Tell those Aussies to come to Free Florida.

They can bring their Sheilas too.

Leave the marsupials.

Sydney has fallen

[Outlaw76]

I have heard of many young men that are waiting for ‘The Spark’ to set things off.

Helicopters, armored vehicles and armed troops would be a bright spark indeed.

The article says the army will begin going door to door in Sydney starting on Monday.

Sydney has a population of more than 4 million people and is a sprawling city.

Good luck with checking everybody is at home.

After they go down your street, feel free to leave your home. They won’t be back down your street for a LOOOOONNNG TIME !

FOOLS !

[Parmy]

This is what happens when the State takes away your guns.

[aMorePerfectUnion]

[Tallguy]

Shoot to kill orders?

[Magnatron]

It’s unreal this is happening…

…in Australia of all places.

[Gnome1949]

Australia began as a prison colony. It has now come full circle and has now imprisoned millions of innocents.

Australia has a population of about 26 million. They should all refuse this tyranny. Where would they be locked up? Would these serfs be killed by the jack-booted army to “save” them from a virus?

There is no point is saving lives that become not worth living.

Australia has become a government of lunatic tyrants controlling a mass of submissive lunatics.

Lockdowns will never work to eradicate a virus.

I bet the Aussies are sorry they so willingly gave up their guns.

I bet you're right.

Remember: when the Government says you don't need guns is exactly the time you need guns!
