Funny how they now say that .  I thought anyone cam say anything  they want 


People *CAN* say whatever they want.

It doesn't mean that people are immune from repercussions from saying whatever they want.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-02-19/assisted-dying-laws-victoria-used-by-more-than-50-people/11979962



Robbie Caliste's family will be forever grateful for Victoria's voluntary assisted dying laws.
They feel it gave Robbie dignity in his death, two years after he was diagnosed with the debilitating motor neurone disease (MND).
On November 12 last year, Mr Caliste died at his home in Melbourne's west surrounded by his family.
At 36, he was one of the youngest people to use the laws.
Mr Caliste's mother Michelle said her son was a determined man who knew that he did not want MND to completely rob him of his life.
"There was no way MND was going to win," she said.
Ms Caliste described his final day as "beautiful" but said they were prepared to stop the process at any time.
"This is your decision," Ms Caliste told her son

I still don't know why people oppose this.  They have to go thru a lot of red tape before they are allowed to go thru it. Give them their dignity and let them die in peace.

If fairness for most people the virus won't be any worse than a cold. Many aren't getting any symptoms at all.

My favourite covid-19 conspiracy theories so far:
1. It was a US biological weapons attack that got out of hand.
2. It was a Chinese biological weapon that accidentally got loose due to a worker stealing and selling an infected pig at the local market 
3. Extinction rebellion released the virus to kill off millions to reduce carbon emissions
4. Aliens released the virus to test the defence response of earth

I'm just surprised that the AFL hasn't already secured 2 billion in funding to build a quarantine facility for their players.

Pushing the line that they'll go broke if they don't play the season is seriously the dumbest shit I have ever heard.

Really feeling for those that work in travel, hospitality and retail industries.
There will unfortunately be a significant amount of jobs lost and strain in these particular industries.

I’m actually trying to fathom the impact but all I can think of is the scenes from the big short.
