15 people shot on Bondi Beach and the government introduced new legislation within days.
1 man killed by a king hit, government introduced new legislation within days.
2 or more women killed every week at the hands of partners or former partners and …. crickets.
Their priorities are wrong!

Australia Day is such bullshit. NSW proclamation day at best. At worst a celebration of the crimes of colonisation.
If you have to acknowledge that the day is a source of pain for many, that’s a damn good sign it’s a shit day to have as your national day.

One problem that Americans have to get past is that this *is* who they are.
It’s not an aberration - this is what the US society is.
All that time kidding yourself about being the greatest nation on earth you have been murdering your own citizens and those in other countries.

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

Nothing less than collaborators and allies with rabidly vicious white supremacist murderers
The BBC coverage is absolutely terrible.
It leads on "sharply contested narratives"
It has a dramatic skew to the US government
It has posted the video but has failed to report on what it shows: it shows the US govt account is untrue

It’s not an ordinary citizen’s duty to watch videos showing murders, and I say this as someone who did have to watch a video showing a murder, as a juror in a trial. It will affect you in ways that will not make you a better person.
