    I think what has just happened in Cairns shows that people can feel terror, but it does not have to be from confirmed terrorists. Our society needs to take a long hard look at where we are heading, and make some hard decisions on what we want our society to be, and how we go about getting to that.

    Shoot me down in flames but ---

    I've disconnected my home alarm system and de-registered from the Neighborhood Watch.

    I've got two Pakistani flags raised in the front yard, one at each corner, and the black flag of ISIS in the center.

    The local police, ASIO and news.com.au are watching the house 24/7.

    I've never felt safer and I’m saving $49.95 a month ------

    Indeed it is. Try going for a ride on a motorcycle in Queensland with a few mates.

    With the www and social media I find it to easy too get involved in all the propaganda and conspiracy theorists with their scare mongering tactics. I find myself centered around the topic of the moment which turns to anger.

    Drugs and Alcohol should be #1 on our list followed by the Judicial system which needs a Big Kick in the Arse..
