Of course they do. If you are locked in your home, you are forced to watch more of their propagandized drivel non stop. All about ratings!

Did they mention the earthquake they had yesterday?

This morning's earthquake was the largest onshore quake ever recorded in Victoria. Other recent earthquakes include two magnitude 5 quakes: one in 1996 near Mt Baw Baw, and one in 2012 near Moe.

I used to agree, but you should check out “Audit The Audit” on YouTube. It was a rude awakening to see how little many knew about the law or the bill of rights. Citizens should not have to kiss arse and smile to get treated decently by the government,


Don’t disagree here, and of course some police shootings are not justified. But those are extraordinarily rare occurrences and not the epidemic leftists want it to be. It’s simple minded to just call anyone who doesn’t side with the dead thug a boot licker.

In Australia the government lockdowns are real and affect everyone.

Plus it’s a better story. A pandemic so intense as to require national shutdown is a better story than a virus that can’t penetrate a cloth mask.

Anyone ANYONE who thinks the cops here won't act in the same brutal fashion, despite our laws, Constitution and their oath to the Constitution is a fool.

Go ahead and back the blue. This is your fate even if you support them. They will not care about you or your rights.

Makes me question where you get your "news" from.

BBC
Telegraph
Reuters
NYTimes
CNN

You'd have to have been living under a rock not to know this was going on. FWIW all those sources (and many more) reported earlier anti-lockdown protests in August, July and earlier also.

Completely agree. They will do anything to protect their pensions, benefits and paycheck.

When I was in jail this past April we were talking about it amongst each other in the holding cell. We only marked 1 or 2 cops we had interacted with that we felt might not side with tyrants if push came to shove.

These same outlets said the Hunter Biden laptop story was 100% confirmed Russian disinformation.

They also, for 3 years, told us Trump was a Russian asset.

If they are willing to lie about those 2 things, what else are they lying to us about?

The United States mainstream media is a wholly owned subsidiary of the American surveillance and law enforcement apparatus. Nothing they say should be believed given who their masters are.

I used to believe the CIA infiltrated the media via operation mockingbird, and they did, but I think now its the other way around, journalists and news directors are selected and installed by the CIA. I worked in the industry for 10 years, the number of applicants the TV stations I would work at would get hundreds of applicants for one open journalist or MMJ position. If its that competitive for a job that paid $35k per year, what honestly determines who gets the job?

Also you and I are getting dowmvoted, I imagine the downvoter is a mask wearer.

Those don't appear to be live rounds. There was at least one smoke/pepper canister, and only one person fell (the person in the yellow who seemed to be stopping prior to the shots). They were probably firing rubber bullets. I'm not saying it isn't fricked up regardless, just saying it doesn't seem they were killing people running away in that video.

These are the same people who believe that the CIA are the good guys, the NSA would never abuse its surveillance powers, the FBI protects us from terrorism instead of promoting it and the DOJ doesn't railroad those accused of crimes in federal court. These people used to identify as Republicans. Now they're all Democrats.

That country is fricked. It's almost as if they just keep pushing the envelope out of spite instead of relenting based on logic, reason, and gasp, SCIENCE.
