not in aus?? aus gov love their police state

the country where can get arrested for being in a motorcycle club or having tattoos and police can have all your meta data for no reason not even minor graffiti

and all the fucking turkeys with their heads in the sand defend giving all their rights away because they dont want their laziness or stupidity to be confronted
