I'm prepared to meet them head-on. Who's with me?

Statistics of terrorist murders of westerners at home and abroad are piddling compared to "ordinary" murders.
So while we must fight against the terrorist groups that have risen since the three amigos invasion of revenge in Iraq we should never let our pollies use terrorism as a means to cower us or to use their hate and fear campaigns to erode our freedoms.
Dont let one term tony fool you...this is just a modern version of the Conservatives "reds under the beds" political campaign's of the past and we all know that these days we rely on those very same reds to keep our economy from being flushed down the toilet.

There's no Ebola cases yet either so I guess we shouldn't take precautions about that either.... Roll Eyes

The penalty rates are kicking in....you lefties are twice as dumb on Sundays.... Grin

No instead lets get the PM to make an announcement, surrounded by the concerned dire faces of all his health chiefs to tell us not to panic but we are raising the danger alert up a notch because lets face it things are very dangerous out there but please everybody go about your daily routine as usual and above all don't panic. The total disrespect and near contempt this Govt has for its people is just palpable
