Hi I was just wondering what your level of support is given to cruising around in your vehicle with your Australia flag attached somewhere nice and visable.
I paricipated last year and the quality and quantity of nice vehicles cruising around was pretty awesome.

A mate is having a BBQ, you won't be let in if you are not wearing some kind of clothing with either the flag on it or national sporting colours (cricket one day top/soccer top/rugby top etc).
I had to smile when I heard on the radio that the Big Day Out organisers were pulling their hair out because hundreds of people turned up wearing the flag around their shoulders or T shirts with the flag on it! By asking not to display it they got more people to display the flag! Ba ha ha ha ha!! |

Il fly the flag when I want and where I want. Anyone who disagrees with that can go to hell, unaustralian bastards! Im not going to stop flying it because of some people from other countrys find it offensive. This is our country damit. You dont like it. Go back to where you came from.
By the way, im not a racist. This just makes me angry!

What was actually said was flags on the wooden sticks would not be allowed to avoid a repeat of incidences where the stick was used as a weapon. Odd of media to change the facts to stir up the the old "changing our values" garbage.

We had a judge remove a Christmas tree from a courthouse this Christmas because she felt it offended other cultures yet she wanted THEIR holiday and religious tokens displayed! Ironically our "cultural" community was calling into the news saying they were NOT offended at all!! Our Muslim community leaders even said this was CRAP!! A Case of some middle aged white female politically correct politician inciting hate towards our "visible minoritys"!!(I bet she never saw it THAT way!) Even our Premier for the province took a shot at her! It almost gives me hope but I fear it's too little too late as Canada is already down the toilet. Best of luck on this my friends.

I would say only put a Australian flag on an Australian made car if you want to. No foriegn/import cars should be wearing the flag as they are not supporting the Aussie car industry. Simply Sending a rightful message to all.
My 2 cent worth Don't flame me!!! :evil3:
