Dangerous criminal apprehended in Australia

 "Pregnant Australian Mother Arrested In Her Home Over Facebook Lockdown Protest Post".

Hmm. Not exactly Ned Kelly stuff, is it? This is what, I suspect, our "progressive" governors and mayors here in the states would love to do - and may wind up doing if the Democrats get their hands on the levers of power in November.

I'm certain you're right, Paco -- the Washington (com)Post provides some (possibly circumstantial) evidence in that direction.

The handcuffing got me. That was never common practice here until recently.

That's messed up.
Coming soon to America.
If not already.

From Jeff's link:
Brooks and colleagues from something called the “Transition Integrity Project” assembled several scenarios — war games, if you will — of the what post-Election Day America will look like. They include the following:
A narrow Biden win;
A big Biden win;
Trump win in Electoral College only;
Uncertainty à la the 2000 election fiasco.


Maybe I'm not reading the nuance liberals are so good at, but isn't there one more possible scenario? What if Trump wins in a landslide?

Did the Transition Integrity Project's brain lock up just at the thought of that possibility?

Comrade Dan of Victoria is having a Hold My Beer moment with your Democrat governors.

The donks will claim election fraud (Oh! The hypocrisy!) because Trump manipulated the Post Office, r-man. That's not in the article, but I have read it elsewhere.

The point of that wargaming (and it is indeed war they are gaming) is to trash the credibility of the elections, so that they have an excuse for escalating the violence if Trump wins, or or continue the violence if Biden wins.

The donks are enabling and encouraging riots across the country because there's no better training for their shock troops than actual combat, and the messaging to the population is clear: Submit or Die.

I'd say it's crappy training for them. Nobody's fighting back much so they're over-confident. They don't get prosecuted and our fine media betters get OUTRAGED!!!!!! whenever anybody fights back.
They're trying to train us to not fight back.
What they're actually doing is training us to accept the rule of law is dead.
Not a good thing for anybody.

Trashing American elections is part of the objective to undermine the foundation of America in order to establish their Progressive ideal. They grew impatient at achieving their nightmarish fantasy through the usual slow method of whittling away, and have opted to ramp it up. They understand, and may relish, that a portion of the population will never submit. But their numbers are miscalculated.

The Democrat elites will find it not just hard but impossible to put the genie back in the bottle."

1/. Ballarat is the city where the girl was arrested.
For making a Facebook post about walking in the park. Arrested at home, in pyjamas, pregnant, children present, house searched, laptops seized, and handcuffed.

2/. On 6th June 2020, Police in that city of Ballarat, at a BLM rally & in front of the BLM mob, got down on their knees & bowed their heads.

(Confirm for yourself with a quick google for "Victoria Police Kneeling at BLM" or somesuch)

Lord Humungus is looking better and better I bet.

Paco said...

Steve: Yeah, there was some of that genuflecting going on in various cities here, too. Nauseating.

Steve said...

Paco: The Grand Prize (in my opinion) goes to the police in North Carolina who participated in washing the feet of BLM protesters.

The more I think about that one, the harder it is to beat it for conduct unbecoming a police officer.

Re the Ballarat arrest, I was comparing the different methods police in that same city (pop 100,000) used for;

a) An illegal BLM street rally.

b) One girl posting on Facebook that she was planning to walk in the park with other people holding a carboard sign saying she disagreed with a government directive.

Balls of steel, those cops in that city.

Australia has gone mad

Paco said...

Steve: Yep, that takes the prize, alright. I guess the next step is for them to literally kiss the a$$es of a bunch of random minority folk.
