I watched this video last night - it's worth the watch. You could almost substitute America for Australia in a lot of it. Good vid, the writing is on the wall, not long and it all unravels.

I watched this video last night - it's worth the watch. You could almost substitute America for Australia in a lot of it. Great video. There is lots to be learned from the classrooms of Yugoslavia and Bosnia. The pattern described has been played out since biblical times. It is simply 'divide and conquer'. A tiny number of very rich and very powerful manipulating huge numbers of average folks so that they may pillage freely and without fear of the average people rising against them. And the interesting thing is we fall for it over, and over, and over, and over .... we really can't help ourselves. I think about this every ANZAC day. Fritz and Tommy have no real interest in slaughtering each other. Nor Did Fritz and Ivan. Nor did Joe and Nguyen. They had to be lured/forced into it by people with vested interests who had plenty to gain. What is worth noting about genocides based on survivors accounts I've heard and read about ... they kick off like the flick of a switch and spread so fast people often find themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time. And then it's too late for them. The end ain't pretty either.

So we are in the midst of a global pandemic and financial crisis. The news is in overdrive. The world is changing around us. I'm monitoring the news which is covering mainstream moderated content. However I'm also actively searching for signs of deterioration in order to stay ahead of the preparedness curve. Ie reports of civil unrest and organised crime activity linked to the pandemic. So far its been minor, skirmishes at supermarkets, isolated looting incidents and the profiteering orientated organised bus loads of shoppers clearing out stores. I have a suspicion that bigger and more violent issues will occur in the US and act as a catalyst for increased incidents here. I started this thread to capture news of these incidents since they may not feature in the mainstream news for a while. Oooh good one, I have been more aware of my surroundings and tracking certain issues but I like what your doing.

Reminds me of the silly woman a few years ago who was beating on an Israeli soldier. So he shot her. I guess "Your bullets cannot harm me, my righteous indignation is like a shield of steel" doesn't work in real life.

Personal opinion you are going to see more of this. The US is a powder keg waiting to blow. People are just tired of this.

I wonder if the couple who stood on their steps with a pistol and AR15 whilst the racist BLM mob trespassed on their property had shot a trespasser, would they be in jail now?

As it turns out the pistol was inoperable, so some of the charges against the lady had to be dropped. Both of them are lawyers and have the best legal team, so will probably get off scot-free apart from getting their weapons taken off them. Meanwhile, was watching the videos from the Kenosha shootings last night. Will be interesting to see what happens to the shooter, seeing as he is a minor (17 years old) and the two latter shootings were when he was being attacked. The guy whose bicep he shot off has already been proven to have been armed with a pistol in multiple photos and videos of the attack. Presumably will be able to claim self-defence.

That's pretty poor form if they were charged. The racist's videos try to make it look like they are walking along the street and had been threatened by the property owners. They were actually walking across their property. When a mob crosses your property and you can't even stand there and try to ward them off (short of actually causing any harm) that's a very bad situation.

Some authors are saying it is a key turning point in the US, as the country is now irreparably divided. tomluongo.me/2020/08/26/kenosha-divided-states-of-america/

You've got various left leaning local governments encouraging racist attacks against whites via the BLM thugs. A culture that defends criminals whilst turning a blind eye to the hate crime murder of a young boy is not one that can find a middle ground.

It’s a good example of what happens when you hand over menial manufacturing jobs to a foreign countries and expect those workers to upskill and get new jobs. Sorry but many people are only suited to screwing on toothpaste caps and not much else. When they don’t have an income you get social decay which is possibly the result we are seeing in the US. The near complete lack of coverage of this issue in he media is the clearest signal something is grotesquely wrong. Even the far left media is backing of covering this issue and that says it all.
just to add i’m not intending to insult people with menial jobs, in fact i think they are amazing and to be able to adapt and survive in that work environment is awesome and is something i could not do myself.

I watched 3 minutes of the Bachelor last night.
I've decided our society is in a worse position that America's. Bring on the reset.

Yep a gunman running from the scene of a shooting without being apprehended instantly by either one of the 3 or 4 response vehicles reflects this pretty well.

The first guy that got shot was a convicted pedophile who was chasing the kid with the gun at the time. Can't really blame the police for walking straight past that one...

Yep a gunman running from the scene of a shooting without being apprehended instantly by either one of the 3 or 4 response vehicles reflects this pretty well. I don't in any way condone what happened, but to be fair, the cops apparently didn't know what exactly had happened at the time he was trying to surrender. They knew there had been a shooting on that road and were driving up to check it out. People are allowed to open carry in Wisconsin and they knew there were armed men around guarding buildings, plus had spoken to this guy earlier in the day when he was helping clean up after the previous days' riots. They were focusing on the other people on the street, some armed, some still smashing stuff up. Probably couldn't hear what he was trying to tell them through the walls of the armoured vehicles either. I'm sure if Aussie cops (or cops in other parts of the US where there is no open carry) saw this guy, they would have scooped him up straight away.
