Brown shirts are active in Australia
She has already been here for weeks ffs. Think the horse has bolted

If you equate this to "brown shirts" it is instantly clear you have no knowledge of history whatsoever & can/should be ignored.
And what analogy would you use when someone has been approved to enter the country weeks ago, then gets detained purely because a high profile case was happening and would look embarrassing to persecute one and not another.
Authorative figures going around and detaining those with what they deem inappropriate paperwork and placed in a detention centre.
So suggest a better analogy and I will use it
@puff your opinion is not fact.
@AnneWimsey This I know.
I still will use this analogy until someone wiser than me suggests a better replacement, which I will then be happy to use instead.
Brown shirts? Protecting public safety of citizens by preventing non citizens from infecting the local population during a global pandemic. You compare that to the Nazis. People who make that kind of comparison would have staunchly supported Hitler. I am convinced of that.
Read the article. She was allowed into the country and played a tournament. Then detained after Djokovic. So Australian authorities allowed her to infect the local population already.
@barjoe Entry papers ok, entered but authorities came to check weeks later and were not satisfied. She was detained in a govt run detention facility awaiting deportation. Reminds me of East Germany, not Australia.
OK smart arse, lets go so I can rip you to shreds.
Define vaccine
Define reluctance then define stupid
I'll go first
Vaccines provides immunity like polio/ smallpox/ Rubella. Pre-emptive medicines boost immunity. Boost is not the same as provide as oranges and apples also boost immunity but never heard anyone refer to them as vaccines. A medicine needed to be boosted every 3-4-5 months is not a vaccine because a herd immunity is possible with vaccines. Immunity ie stop transmission. So if you equate these covid medicines the same as the polio vaccine ie all "vaccines" are equal...... That is what I call stupidity.
Reluctance. We have mandates in Australia, the US does not because you have a bill of civil rights where we don't. You have the option of daily testing, we don't. With 4 months before booster now in Australia, That's 3 shots in 5 months with no-one able to give a medical regime eg how many booster shots will I need in 2,3,4,5 years time? 10 years time? Has medicine formula been tweeked for the boosters to counter new strains? Why not recognise recovered immunity as science does but insist vaccination is the only option? In short, "reluctance" shows an enquiring mind to me. Better than "Experts" say we need more vaccinated and boosters so..........OK! Experts also say vaccine highly effective, which is why Israel has approved the 2nd booster shot obviously. Sorry, will question "experts" running this shit show every time. does this give you an idea why some are reluctant?
This would be a whole different argument if these vaccines actually provided immunity as vaccines do. And I will be vaccinated, just not yet. Happy I've resisted coercion as the vaccine I will be taking seems a superior product to the ones on offer. They use the old method of making vaccines, not nMRA tech
If I was vindictive, I may call out those who rushed to get an unproved medicine on promises of efficiency, now waiting for their boosters as they are fearful they are not protected for new strains even though the boosters have not changed, as stupid. But I won't say that as they were conned by powerful forces.
These covid medicines were rushed, emergency approved so the vulnerable may be protected and the rest of us could get on with it. They do have their uses but this is not the black and white debate many seem to think it is. I find it easier to simplify the argument into consent for medical treatment. I support consent in case it is not obvious.
