“Police responded to a report from a member of the public of people not wearing masks inside a church,” police said.”
The police are either lying or the “member of the public” is an atheist.....IMO
I find this draconian insanity pretty ironic considering how Australia was founded.
There appear to be two kinds of cops. State directed Gestapo, an defenders of citizens. If that happened here some cop would get shot and there would be jury nullification
“...the ‘member of the public’ is an atheist.”
Or a Moose Limb.
Just what do the leaders in Australia think they are doing? Trying to imitate Canada?
The heritage of English law alone is not enough to prevent the rise of a tyranny.
Neither Australia nor Canada had the independent and revolutionary streak that formed the republic of the United States of America, but were part of the British Commonwealth long after the Second World War was over.
