Do you know what they're talking about? Did I miss something?

There were two incidents of pedestrians being deliberately killed in Melbourne back in 2017 but neither were terrorist (both mental health and drug issues)

Probably the Dec 2017 one who was an Afghan refugee. 1 dead and 17 injured.

and the fella who did the December one wasn't visiting on a visa like numbnuts is suggesting, he had lived here for 13 years at the time and had Aussie citizenship.

See, if Australia didn’t give anyone citizenship, but instead was a hermit kingdom like North Korea, this wouldn’t have happened.

This is why we need to become Juche Gang

At least, no other countries would know that it had happened.

You're giving Henry the racist too much credit. He probably knows of zero evidence to back up his feefees, beyond chinese whispers peddled by psychological warfare operatives.

There was a vehicle that ploughed into pedestrians near parliament with the motive determined as terrorism… in the UK? That’s the only thing I can think of.

Is that like the Anglo man who was refused service in a Daylesford restaurant and ploughed down a Muslim family?

(Ok the dude was diabetic and was having a hypo, but it proves the point).
