    Hmm, thats about what I think about the AFL. Every. damn. game. half the cities blocked up tighter than a bees bum… won’t someone think of muzza’s* third court appearance.

    Living alongside other peoples a bitch ain’t it.

    ^*no shade on the muzza’s out there, love ya!^

        You’re right, the point of the AFL isn’t the same as a protest.

        The point of the protest is to stop our country’s government from aiding and abetting a genocide. Anything else pales in comparison.

            Ah mate, you’ve now just lost any credibility you may have thought you had.

            “Alleged+” is certainly an interesting way of phrasing “officially declared by the relevant independent UN commission”. That certainly is above alleged.

            After reflection i suppose you’re right. The outcomes are different, one car in my way on the freeway is there to protest, the other car in my way on the freeway is there to AFL. Very different outcomes there… *

            ^*Maybe we should ban all cars but mine? Am I crazy, or would that solve my problem?^

            I suppose totally different messages being sent though: one is, ‘i care about this thing and you’re also gona have to for a bit’; the other is, ‘i care about this thing and you’re gona need to wait’. Theres a nuance there.

            Sadly there is one unavoidable outcome :) MUZZA DOESN’T MAKE HIS COURT APPEARANCE!! The judge. is. ropeable…

              Saying that traffic caused by an afl game is in any way the same to highways and roads being abruptly blockaded by protesters shows you’re not here for an actual discussion.

                Uh oh… rumbled. ;)

                Of course i’m not. I am satirising. Because your suggestion, and the implications of which, are ridiculous from the outset. The only sane response is to satirise the idea in the vain hope that through the equivalences drawn the ideas own ridiculousness is laid bare. In a bit of a ‘the emperor has no clothes’ kind of moment.

                Have a good day mate. Lets protect freedom together in our own ways.

                    … in the corner; out the way; down the street; where it can’t be heard… etc it doesn’t matter the caveat.

                    The suggestion that other people shouldn’t have to deal with protestors on the road, because “they’re in the way”. Well shit, the AFL is in my way! And they’re playing for a good half a year or more as well. Point is, certain things people do, especially on our roads, are gonna annoy others.
