The problem seems to be about something a couple of people have seen as anti American in a group.
I have looked at the group identified by a man called cometman who is outraged.
As for me, and I feel I want to make this comment, not to be ingratiating to anyone or critical of any others, but just how I feel.
I truly believe in freedom of speech and expression and feel most Australian people do also. I find the group that cometman identified to be a bit radical and offensive to my personal feelings but I wish them well.
Australian people have fought and died in many wars, side by side with Americans and other allies of freedom.
If we fought for freedom then the freedom to express what one thinks, offensive to me or not, is part of the freedom we fought for.
I have no issues with any person on RB whether they like America or not. I also think a lot of this is a joke!

You couldn’t have summed up my feelings much better, well put Jim.
P.S. wasn’t game to voice them myself as I’m Australian…..
