You can only sign it if you're a QLD resident. That's me out.

Isn't the World going to end in 12 years? Greta reckons it is. :rofl

If Dallas were vying for the Olympics, I'd vote against it. The preparation is miserable and expensive. Somebody makes money on it, but it ain't me and I have no patience for it. There is too much PC pandering and politics.

If it was held in Perth, where I'd actually be able to sign a damn petition, I'd vote against it too. It amuses me how the Australian Gov on one hand claims money is tight and they have to be frugal, but when something like, say the olympics comes up, the money is suddenly there. :roll:

States shouldn't be vying for it. It's a country thing not a state thing. Massive amounts of money go into it and mostly the facilities are completely baron and wasted afterwards.

If the facilities of past Olympics are already there, albeit in another state, that's where it should be.

How dare yowu...
They can't have the Olympics here.
How will people get here?

Jets use fuel
More people means more power and all the mice on treadmills will be too busy.

We need a green Olympics
No power for anything
No transport
No media
Just some idiots running around in the dark with half a dozen people cheering them on.
I have a dream
A world free from the plague of Islam
A world that has never known the horrors of the cult of death.
My hope is that in time, Islam will be nothing but a bad dream
