Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says his government will crack down on hate speech following Sunday's deadly shooting at Bondi Beach that targeted a Jewish festival.

Fifteen people were killed when two gunmen opened fire at an event to mark the first day of Hanukkah.

New laws will target "those who spread hate, division and radicalisation", Albanese told reporters in Canberra.

The home affairs minister will also be given new powers to cancel or refuse visas for those who spread hate and a new taskforce will be set up to ensure the education system "prevents, tackles and properly responds to antisemitism".

The new laws will also include penalties for preachers and leaders who promote violence, a new federal offence of "aggravated hate speech", and the introduction of "hate" as an aggravating factor in sentencing crimes for online threats and harassment.

"Every Jewish Australian has the right to feel safe, valued and respected for the contribution that they make to our great nation," Albanese said.

"The terrorists, inspired by ISIS... sought to turn Australians against each other. Australians have responded to that act of hatred with love and sympathy for those in mourning."

Daniel Aghion, the President of the Executive Council of Australian Jewry, the peak body representing Australian Jews, said he would "need to see the details before making an assessment as to whether the measures are likely to live up to their billing."

"We warned of the risk of not dealing with antisemitism in this country promptly and effectively after 7 October. It is an absolute tragedy that it has taken a massacre of Jewish and other Australians for that step to be taken."

You will be forced to be pro-Semitic. And you will only have the right to like it. You voted for this, rightards.

This sounds like they're going to start monitoring social media history and email for incoming travelers like the US.. What a horrible precedent Trump and Stephen Miller set for the world.

Just wait until Mexico and Canada start doing this to Americans.
>>
>>1467424
Honestly, we probably copied this idea from Canada or some sort of euroshit country.
Mexico never will because they literally want Americans to come buy drugs and fuck hookers.

Do they or don't they have agency?

>>1467450
>acid attacks, suicide bombings and car rammings go up
No they didn't lmao. The US actually has a higher rate of those too.

Also, hot take; I think it's better for 100 people to die from acid, car bombs, and suicide bombings per year as opposed to 500 people to die to mass shootings. I actually think more deaths are bad, shockingly.
>>
>>1467453
Australia has the population of Florida.
>Also, hot take
If you don't care about reducing the total loss of life and bodily harm from those things, then why would you care about reducing gun violence?
>>
>>1467456
>Australia has the population of Florida.
And homicide RATE, not number, is literally a 5th of the US'. If we exclusively look at gun homicides, it goes down to a sixth. Gee, I wonder what kind of policy difference they have to cause that?
>If you don't care about reducing the total loss of life and bodily harm from those things, then why would you care about reducing gun violence?
You're the one saying "Well uh, they got all those things in exchange for less gun deaths!". And yeah, I'd rather have less deaths overall. If gun control results in a slight rise in different attack types with lower fatality and occurrence rates, I'd say that's a pretty good fucking trade.

Oh wait, but that's wrong somehow, isn't it?
>>

You're a hypocritcal idiot, then. You could solve far more deaths in australia by banning certain demographics from owning cars, which have a higher death rate than either bombings, acid, or shootings. But you won't, because those are the 'good deaths' in your mind. The ones that power the pockets of the people who filled your head with this shit.
>>
>>1467459
>Misses the entire point of the post
Anon was the one saying the price for no guns is more of those attacks. Not only was he wrong, but even if he was correct, they actually equal less deaths of innocents overall. It is, objectively, a good trade.
>>
>>1467461
>Not only was he wrong, but even if he was correct, they actually equal less deaths of innocents overall. It is, objectively, a good trade.
Objectively: If you believed that, you would be arguing the same thing for cars, trucks, and even bicycles. Freedom is freedom, the only reason to make exception for *those* freedoms is because they make your betters money. That's what this actually boils down to: Guns don't make your betters money, so they can ban those with impunity.
>>
>>1467457
>Gee, I wonder what kind of policy difference they have to cause that?
Tolerance of gang crime perpetuated by non-Americans.
>And yeah, I'd rather have less deaths overall.
Then why are you openly in favor of taking away the only means these Australians have to defend themselves? Both freedom of speech and gun ownership?
>>
>>1467462
>Comparing guns to methods of transportation
Yeah I think easily accessible cars has objectively more to offer polite society than a gun does. We're literally watching in Australia what happens when you ban guns and it literally is just a lower death rate from guns. Shocker, I know.
>>
>>1467463
>Then why are you openly in favor of taking away the only means these Australians have to defend themselves?
IDK they seemed pretty able to defend themselves considering one of the shooters was disarmed by a citizen. Plus, you know, there's a naturally benefit of not HAVING to defend yourself as often.

You know it's funny; last time I remember someone trying to deflect with gang violence who had the opinion that a few deaths is worth having guns, the guy became a shooting death statistic in stunning HD. Maybe that wouldn't happen if he didn't worship at the church of exchanging innocent lives for gun ownership.
>>
>>1467465
>IDK they seemed pretty able to defend themselves considering one of the shooters was disarmed by a citizen.
He was shot twice. He didn't have to be shot at all if he got the jump the gunman with his own firearm. Or even better, if the shooter wasn't in the country in the first place.
>last time I remember someone trying to deflect with gang violence who had the opinion that a few deaths is worth having guns
Charlie Kirk genuinely thought that everybody is the same deep down. And he was killed for it.
>>
>>1467466
>He was shot twice. He didn't have to be shot at all if he got the jump the gunman with his own firearm. Or even better, if the shooter wasn't in the country in the first place.
Oh it would've been even better if the shooter never got a gun at all. Which actually has a much higher success rate considering this kind of mass shooting happens maybe once ever 5 years compared to every fucking month. It's almost like you wouldn't need guns to defend yourself from guns if criminals and terrorists couldn't get guns. And before you say "but they get guns anyway!", clearly it happens at a much lower rate if you actually have some gun control laws, and you can live without constant fear of getting team deathmatched by any random schizo.
>Charlie Kirk genuinely thought that everybody is the same deep down. And he was killed for it.
He was a death cultist who loved the idea of sacrificing people so he and his buddies could shill and play with guns right up until someone turned him into one of those sacrifices. And a general bad faith shithead besides.
>>
>>1467462
>Guns don't make your betters money, so they can ban those with impunity.
Yeah, nobody makes any money off guns. Gun manufactures are all non-profit companies. No cash to be found there at all.
>>

So be more like the other guy that advocated against the NRA and assault weapons only to be chopped up by his enlightened son?
>>
>>1467472
Yeah I remember when he was pro knife ownership and said a few deaths a year are just the price we pay for knives. Oh wait.

2A enthusiasts literally operate on the principle that it doesn't matter how many people die as long as they get to keep playing with their toys. Countries with gun control almost universally have a lower homicide rate, and ESPECIALLY gun homicide rate, yet 2A cultists will rant on and on about how they need guns to defend themselves against other guns.
>>
>>1467472
Are we talking about Rob? Or does this happen often with lefists?
>>
>>1467461
>It is, objectively, a good trade.
Absolutely not. My life is worth infinitely more than these violent criminals and taking away the innocent's right to defend their lives is cowardly. I don't know what it's like in Australia, but here in Europe, the police don't even keep track of the daily robberies and attacks from the third worlders that stand around all day
>>
>>1467502
>taking away the innocent's right to defend their lives is cowardly.
Taking away the right to get gunned down by a random schizo is cowardly?

EU and Australia have a much lower gun homicide rate than the US. You're literally arguing for more deaths in exchange for a hero fantasy of stopping them. If the primary use for guns is defending yourself from others with guns, there's no reason not to just fucking ban them.
>>
>>1467506
>Taking away the right to get gunned down by a random schizo is cowardly?
It makes sense if you're a schizo confused why the police aren't tracking imaginary crimes

Your memory seems fixed on just Kirk. Reiner asserted many times that less guns meant a more safe country yet he fell apart after a family get together.

Other nations don’t have a federal protection for firearm ownership. It’s an Amendment in the Constitution, banning all, most or half of the firearms would be challenged in Court and likely unbanned again. What exactly are you proposing when advocating for “gun control”?
>>
>>1467479
>2A enthusiasts literally operate on the principle that it doesn't matter how many people die as long as they get to keep playing with their toys.

I'm actually pro gun confiscation. Its just retards like you are going to then make excuses on how its not fair that the only people allowed to have guns are going to be the big mean racist police.

Hand in your guns and voluntarily disarm. we'll see how peaceful these Minnesota and Portland terrorist demonstrations are when the only ones with guns are law enforcement and ICE
>>
>>1467596
>Reiner asserted many times that less guns meant a more safe country yet he fell apart after a family get together.
Yeah this doesn't correlate to being stabbed the same way literally saying "We just have to accept some gun deaths for the 2nd amendment" does. But keep trying.

he's now serving time in jail
Gotta love how stupid some retarded american is to think silence means they agree

Ok. Hopefully Reiner congratulates you when it’s your turn to go. A few knife deaths are worth gun control laws right?
>>

>can't own guns
