Australia is tilting perilously towards a police state with yet another government overreach – the ASIO Amendment Bill 2. The major parties ganged up, stifled debate. No committee, no community consultation. They ‘guillotined’ it through Parliament. 

Now the spy agency has powers to arrest citizens without a warrant, on the say of a politician, detain and question them. And you can’t tell anybody, or else face jail. #auspol #asio

If you want to be the effective version of a shitlib about this: find some leftish politician willing to authorize this action on all their enemies then hold a 'repeal this shit' vote while they're locked up, if the police comply.

The fact this hasn't already happened means not one of your tyrants deserves anything but death. This is really disturbing.
