RE: What Happens, When It Happens? It Almost Did Happen! (PART 2)
It was called the Brisbane Line and the plans to abandon the bulk of Australias mainland have actually been proven to exist.
Most Australians are disturbingly ignorant of our own wartime history. Many don't even realise we've been at war in Afghanistan since 2001 - our longest war ever.
In reality, without any sarcasm, it was probably a very logical option, not maybe the best option, but one of the options that in the given situation had to be considered.
If you do not have the people with the know how to defend themselves and their homes, then an all out retreat (run for your lives) is more than realistic!
That doesn't mean that these people are not patriotic (loyal to nation/people and our country) what it means is:
If a person has never been educated and trained to handle certain tools, to do a certain job, to know what to expect in a certain field, then one can not expect that person to do it.
So to with defending oneself.
The martial arts are often referred to as "self defense", the training sessions are often called "self defense courses".
So if Aussies have never taken self defense courses for a situation where we are expected to defend ourselves, our loved ones and our homes!
Need I say any more!
Ignorance never got anyone a "get out of jail card".
In fact, ignorance is what gets most of those pretty boys into jail!
