"Sometimes Australians can be too generous in their actions."

At least they shipped their butts back to Indonesia. If that would have happened here they would have been released with a further court date and then got lost in a sanctuary city.

Yes, the Aussies are pretty laid back and relaxed people, but they are very good at defending the Great Southern Land. Any group, of whatever political or religious persuasion, that seeks to undermine or invade the fair shores of Australia should remember that when pushed, Australians are fierce and brave fighters.

Long Live Australia !

"He no longer dreamed of storms, nor of women , nor of great occurrences, nor of great fish, nor fights, nor contests of strength, nor of his wife. He only dreamed of places now and of the lions on the beach. They played like young cats in the dusk and he loved them as he loved the boy." - Hemingway
