It's a good idea. Every neighbourhood could have a Militia that could double up as an aid to Police against juvenile thugs.

No White Australian is going to fight for a country that has marganilised us and removed our future.

No Asian or Indian is going to fight because Australia is little more than a lucrative business contract for them.

We could get invaded tomorrow and no one would lift a finger. What we even be fighting to maintain?

Invaded by who? China, maybe?

That seems to be the firm favourite. All China need do is set loose a few million unarmed boat people and Aus would be overwhelmed and ... the rest will be history.

China would no better occupy Australia than the US did occupying Afghanistan or Iraq. The biggest difference would be that China knows and understands this.

Dear oh me, UD, you are a bitter vegemite!

"What we even be fighting to maintain?"

There is much to love about Aus, bro:

Might be time to refurbish the old boomers, just in case.

Those crystalized salt lakes are pretty cool, although when I got to Coober Pedy I realized that's the incredibly hot zone. Place looks you'd be tripping over gems if you didn't watch your step.

War with who, exactly?
