Apparently, the right to speak out, to protest is an
American thing, something our Prime-Minister does not like.
Huh?
Since when was freedom of speech something we inherited from
our American brother?
It’s fair enough that she does not like the placards such as
“ditch the witch” and “Juliar” but the point of the matter is that they got her
attention, didn’t they?
According to the first female Prime Minister a protest
should be like a day at the footy, sitting happily and yelling passionately for
the team, sitting next to a Collingwood supporter if you’re an Essendon fan and
having a few nice words about the game. What era did she go to the football?
Last time I went,
people yelled passionately, sure, but in expletives and I don’t know about nice
words to the opponents fans.
Claiming that the protests are americanised may be true but
just because they do not suit your interests Gillard, they are what they are.
Would she be saying the same thing about the pro-carbon tax
rallies? I thought not.
