So on the one hand we have Shorten stating that he will beef up 18c (to appease islam)....
and on the other hand we have Morrison stating he will increase penalties for online offences.
Looks like we are in a lose/ lose situation...commonly called a crossfire...from which there are no winners.
Prepare for freedom of speech to be totally destroyed people....
Canada has blasphemy laws...you cant say boo in the UK without being arrested....
Australia will be next....
Orwell was right...the Thought Police are at the door....

The Thought Police are already reading every word you type.

Probably the only people who will see this up close and personal will be straight white males and/or Christians.

I quote the same as Israel Folau quoted.

Galatians 5:19‭-‬21 KJV

Now the works of the flesh are manifest,
which are these , adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance,
emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders,
drunkenness, revelings, and such like:
of the which I tell you before,
as I have also told you in time past,
that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

Israel Folau could get 5 years jail:

The Liberal party have officially announced its trolling policy. From Scott Morrison’s statement:

“As a dad I know firsthand how anxious parents feel about what their kids see and do online and the dangers the internet can bring,” Mr Morrison said.

“Online trolls have no place in Australia and I promise to bring in new laws to protect our kids and keep our community safe.

“No one should be subjected to vile abuse and harassment whether they are in the online or offline world.

“We need the law to keep pace with technology and I want to ensure the courts reflect community expectations about the seriousness of online harassment, abuse and crime.”

Penalties for online abuse and harassment will be strengthened in line with community expectations that online crime should be treated as seriously as offline crime and will include:

· Maximum penalties for certain offences will be increased, including for those using a carriage service to menace, harass or cause offence under section 474.17 of the Criminal Code Act 1995 from three years’ imprisonment to five years’ imprisonment.
So on the one hand we have Shorten stating that he will beef up 18c (to appease islam)....
and on the other hand we have Morrison stating he will increase penalties for online offences.
Looks like we are in a lose/ lose situation...commonly called a crossfire...from which there are no winners.

That's not abusive. That's a religious opinion.
Take it up with the author of the Bible. Are they going to outlaw Christianity?
Will this also apply to Islam? I think we all agree that this is nuts.
It's weird how we are expected to swear on the Bible in court
but if we quote from it
we can lose our job or get up to 5 years jail.
Go figure?
You can always taken an affirmation, rather than swear on the bible, Bobby. I have done so ever since becoming an adult. It usually flusters the oath taker for a few seconds until they work out/remember how to do it.

As for quoting from the bible, Israel was warned once before that he could not post Homophobic stuff online as it was against his contract with the League. He has decided this will get him out of his contract and get a wad of compensation from the League as well. Naughty Israel. :roll:

As for Freedom of Speech, Australians have never had a right to that, ever. All that will happen is that those people who seek to sow discord will be held accountable for their transgressions of the law. All that will more than likely happen is they might face a fine.

Israel Folau was only guilty of quoting the Bible:

Galatians 5:19‭-‬21 KJV

Now the works of the flesh are manifest,
which are these , adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance,
emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders,
drunkenness, revelings, and such like:

What a load of crap from the resident moron....
Folau wasnt trying to get out of his contract..otherwise why didnt he chose to take the million this afternoon....
As for freedom of speech...blind freddie can see that we will soon follow other parts of the world....funny isnt it...
the UK clamp down on islamophobia, as does Canada with its blasphemy laws...both part of the British Empire...as are we...
...as we also follow British precedent law...its sticking out like dogs balls that we too will be creating legislation to protect
the islamic infestation....
Morrison talks about clamping down on on line bullying, but thats just a ruse to control free speech...
Shorten has the same plans....
The peasants must be silenced....they must be dumbed down...we are the Proles from Orwells 1984....
Make no mistake....2019 is 1984 revisited.....read the book......
We must obey Big Brother.....
To discover those who rule over you, first discover those who you cannot criticize...Voltaire
Its coming...the rest of the world versus islam....or is it here already...
