    So, you disagree with a government having the right to set rules for who enters the country. I will see you in an illegal immigrant thread, where my position will be the same. Will yours?

    Same number of deaths and killing the spirit of discovery and innovation America is famous for and the rest of the world freeloading on. Why make a vaccine if you can simply jail your way out of pandemic?

    So, vaccines are out. GM technology is out. Nuclear is out.
    Coal and gas are out. Airports, dredging, freeways are out.
    Capitalism is out. Technology is out. Kids are out. Non-political
    education is out.
    I hope America is allowing in skilled and educated immigrants
    as fast as they can.

    Freeloading? Is that what you call purchasing the intellectual copyright or the products themselves. And the US 'freeloads' when it does the same? Odd definition of freeloading.

    Ah! mate! If you think America is the only country in the world innovating then you are sadly sadly mistaken

    And at the moment my state has seen exactly SEVEN Covid related deaths

    It also means we do not have thousands of people disabled from long Covid or post Covid or any of a multitude of long term symptoms

    Have you looked at a map lately? See those islands to the north? Especially the one you can paddle a canoe to from Cape York…….

    We have had long standing issues with resistant TB finding its way from Papua to the Cape.

    Oh! And about mask wearing

    Thanks for proving it works

    Which can only mean your comments on this issue have so little merit/value that they literately don't matter, one way or the other.

    Because if you don't it means you can't. (Prove any of your claims.)

    Which in turn means your entire contribution to this thread has been a waste of space.

    it means I don't care your agreement or disagreement is of little value

    Than feel free not to respond.

    Now, finally we agree. You have confirmed you have nothing useful to add and therefore I no longer have to deal with your (increasingly banal) posts.

    You never had to. You chose to.

    I could speculate as to why but that's best left unsaid.

    Yes, the ego of the man is unfathomable. According to him he can say/state whatever he wants and he never has to back it up with evidence. It's just true because he says so, end of story! Call him on it and your the one with the problem. FYI I never block anyone on this forum as a matter of principal but I can certainly understand why would be tempted to do so given his stance that (his) opinion is fact but everyone else has to prove what they say! Some of his responses on this thread have been are so 'out there' as to border on the autistic!

    2 years.

    It only took Australia 2 years to go from covid to concentration camps.

    The US should cancel its nuke sub deal because Australia is basically China.

    Also the aussies are hunting down aboriginals to forcibly vaccinate.

    And their major export is coal to China.

    It's basically china.

    a negative test still resulted in his imprisonment

    what a bunch of hogwash from you

    imprisoned despite the evidence against the state and proving the man's innocence.

    Is that what has become of the land down under? Do they now imprison folks for things that may occur?

    No thanks

    He agreed to the conditions of return when he left the country. He was made extremely aware that he'd have to quarantine. If he hated the idea of quarantine, don't leave the country.

    Do you believe citizens should get to decide the law all by themselves? Should I get to say what the speed limit is on the roads I use? I've never killed anyone with my car, or even caused an accident. Why should I be held to the speed limit when the only reason is something bad may occur?

    He's not in prison, he's not in a labor camp, he's not in Auschwitz. The hyperbolic language is getting exhausting.

    hmm, locked away in a place you do not want to be

    leave that place and you get arrested despite having committed NO CRIME and testing negative for the disease du jour

    if that is not false imprisonment then what the heck is?

    What is wrong with you folks?

    It's 100% "he consented to the quarantine when he left the country."
