Bondi Beach Terrorist Attack (8 Viewers)

[waynepoo]

Some interesting facts.......in 2025 alone there was 398 mass shootings in the US, 390 dead, 1178 wounded, 7 shootings at schools, 4 at places of wordship. Terror?

It's very disappointing to find people who I would of have thought better of, to deny their own eyes, for surely no one can not have seen on the news, in newspapers, in the streets, so widely is it spread, this rise in anti semitism.
Today it's Jews, but tomorrow it's everyone else, you cannot keep feeding the crocodile hoping it won't eat you too !

Surely all of this banter back and forth is in poor taste jest? It seems to be a distraction from the aim of the thread which is to acknowledge and commemorate a tragedy where innocent folk were gunned down for no better reason than their religious beliefs and ordinary citizens rose to the occasion in response.

If the MAGA crowd keeps at it, I'm sure Down Under will be proposed as the 52nd state.

This first anti semitic attack I know of here, anti semitic is not an issue here. If you refer to the protests, apart from some nutters, they were about Israels perceived response.

Ha, we refuse the proposal. He wants you blokes first mate,

 

[BHogan]

Ha, we refuse the proposal.

As do we. Professionally, I've always enjoyed working with the Yanks, from the start of my career to now. I've always admired their patriotism and love of country. Their current C-in-C has been more challenging however.

Yes mate, well done, you are correct indeed. Lets remember those who were murdered without cause.....We in Australia are still in shock, we don't want this crap here from any creed, faction, Faith or country...

Can you remind me how Jews getting massacred has anything to do with MAGA or Donald Trump?

I am amazed at the infatuation with this. Next spin I am sure Bondi will be his fault too.

This thread was all about your first paragraph until it was stated and insinuated that Israel is on the same level as Muslim terrorists. I dont call stating facts to be in poor taste.

Unbelievable

On the another note raised here, financially I really don't think anyone in the USA wants either of your Countries as a new State. Both of your currencies are very weak to our dollar, it would be quite costly to take you on.

Ok, guy that’s never set foot in the US. Please do educate me about what it’s like to live in the US. I’ve only lived here 60 plus years - in 5 different states/major cities, and visited over half of the states. But I actually have no clue what it’s REALLY like to live here because ya know my eyes are “closed to the truth”.

Ha Ha you can't even spell Australia, it's hard to take your BS seriously, no surpise there, Americans (God Bless em, as my Brit friends say), are usually ignorant of anything that's 'Not American'

Are you daft? I left out the possessive apostrophe but otherwise spelled Australia just as you did. In fact when I try to misspell it, ie, Australiei, the system won’t even let me. Oh brother.

Thanks for the selfie. I am sure the forum appreciates it.

A bit of OZ trivia....the big red kangaroo has this innate ability to spot bush turkeys from long distances, once spotted he stands and stares at said turkey.

No thanks needed, they do stand and stare at turkeys you know.
