Let's Get This Shit Sorted
Concerned Alert Citizens Australia would like to salute the Attorney General for the latest initiative in ignoring those chardonnay swilling members of the Australian Law Reform Commission (ALRC), the Legal and Constitutional Committee of the Senate and namby pamby pinko members of the chattering classes, and keeping the proposed sedition laws which are essential to preserving the Australian Way of Life.
A spokesperson from CaCA, Craig McGurk said "Already we seen these lawshave been effective in dampening the full expression of subversive ideas by ratbags who wish to either stir up trouble or undermine the Australian Way of Life.
The risks for Ordinary Australians in these times of trouble are too serious to let a bunch of possum stirrers leave the way open for terorrist infiltration. Terrorists are everywhere, we all know that. Just because they don't advertise the fact, it doesn't mean that we all shouldn't be alert."
Noting that the current alert level for australia is at Medium, Craig said he saw it as a clear sign that the government is on the right track. "I'd still say it isn't time for getting alarmed just yet, I mean, we're not really like the yanks, we just want to keep our eyes peeled and show a bit of common sense. I think most ordinary Australians would agree with that wouldn't you?"
Asked about the likely risks of the new laws to stifle the creativity and initiative of the current and future generations of australian Artists, writers, and performers, Craig became emphatic.
"Look mate, some of these people can get a bit bloody silly, you know? Listen, we've just lost a major national icon, in Steve Irwin. That man looked into the jaws of death every day of his bloody life, and did he flinch? did he turn away? Nah! He jumped in there, boots and all, and did his bit for Australia, for his family, and for our wildlife too, even if it killed him."
" I reckon there's somehting in that for all of us. You have a go, you understand the risks, but real Aussies will jump in and give it a go anyway. If you want initiative you just gotta look at our sportsmen. I mean some of them can get a bit out of line too you know. Look at Warnie! but if you listen to your mates, and stay true to this great wide brown land, things will see you through in the end."
Learning that various arts, legal and media groups were starting a campaign to to approach those parliamentarians who have expressed concern, to ask that they demonstrate their commitment and demand the recommended changes to the legislation, Craig continued.
"Listen mate, I'm no artist, but I know what I like, and so do most ordinary Australians. My mate read a book once, and he couldn't see what the bloody fuss was about. I mean, why would you bother when you can get most of your news from Alan Jones? I don't mind the odd painting, and I really don't see what they're so worried about. I mean a picture of a bunch of kangaroos, or cows or an old slab hut, that's not going to hurt anyone is it? I'ts like I said before. The Olympics have been going for millenia, it's ancient tradition, and yet Aussies can still have initiative and show the everyone that we are the greatest nation in the world. It's the same for art and all that other stuff. If you stick to what you know, keep to the tried and true rules, then you'll get there in the end. You'll show the others that even battlers can be the best, and beat the rest."
Concerned Alert Citizens Australia, backed by ordinary australians, wants to see a clear distinction made between namby pamby chardonnnay swilling socialists and genuine ratbags, but believes that all of the above need to take a long hard look at themselves. CACA applauds the potential of the anti-sedition legislation to encourage caution and self awareness in all Australians, and wishes to encourage ordinary Australians, especially those concerned by their potential to assist terrorists, to take the initiative and contact CACA.
CACA's "Are You Unaustralian" survey provides an ideal form of self monitoring that any one can conduct safely and easily in the privacy of their own home. If people really do have any genuine concerns that they may in fact personally pose a threat to the Australian Way of life, then CACA has a number of other request forms, for monitoring and investigation by appropriate authorities, that will help them do their job and protect Australia's future.
Schappylle Scragg, popular aussie icon said "Like me, CACA is open to anyone and anything. It's only by ordinary Aussies, getting in and doing their bit, that the war on terror will be won. So, contact CACA today!"
We Are Not Vigilantes
Anti terrorist group claim.
A new group, formed to raise community awareness of weapons of mass destruction, rejected claims of being a type of US style citizens army. Concerned Aware Citizens of Australia (CacA), a volunteer group of ordinary Australians, are hoping to find practical ways that people can help the War on Terror.
“It all started with the fridge magnets.” founding member Schappylle Scragg, said. “When ours first arrived, we all had a bit of a laugh, but a few years down the track, the magnet was still on the fridge, and it started to make me think, well, yeah, it is time to be alert, but what does that mean?”
“The sad fact is that terrorists aren’t out there somewhere, but seem just like ordinary people. If someone wants to blow up the opera house they aren’t going to be wearing a t-shirt announcing the fact.
New member Craig adds, “I think this type of threat is just too much for most people. It’s too big and too scary and most people hope the government will take care of things and it will go away. Weapons of mass destruction can be made from just about anything, and by almost anyone, so we think people need to be aware of what stuff they’ve got lying around and what could happen if it got into the wrong hands”.
Schappylle continues, “I got talking to some friends and we decided that, like saving the planet, fighting the war on terror involves thinking globally but acting locally, and that’s just what we’re trying to do”.
Asked if they might be seen by some as vigilantes, Schapppylle emphatically rejects the claim. “We are not vigilantes and we are not about leading some sort of witch hunt against extremists or weirdos. We just want ordinary Australians to know how they can do their bit to help keep Australia safe and secure”
CacA will also be having an open shop from 26th January to 6th February at 116 Chalmers Street, Surry Hills 2010. They will have information, questionnaires, displays and giveaways to gather suggestions and ideas from ordinary Australians on how people can take the global war on terror into their own homes.
“We want to make it fun, without being frivolous” Says Schappylle “If people can find easy ways to do something against terrorism everyday, then the world will be a safer place”.
“Its right next to Central Station, and we are opening at 6pm on Australia Day, so people can come down after the festivities, and bring the whole family.”
Ordinary Australians Can Make a Difference
Sometimes it can seem like the war on terror is too scary to think about.
Most people hope the government will take care of things an it will go away.
Not all Australians believe in keeping out heads in the sand. CacA is a group of ordinary Australians, looking for practical ways that we can all keep an eye on our mates. CacA consists simply of Concerned Alert Citizens of Australia, ordinary people trying to find common sense ways of dealing with the deadly threat of terrorism.
CacA aims to keep Australians informed about the threat that terrorism poses in daily life and find practical ways that we can all be ALERT BUT NOT ALARMED.
We are not vigilantes and we are not about leading some sort of witch hut against extremists or weirdos. We just want ordinary Australians to know how they can do their bit to keep Australia safe and secure.
CacA is not affiliated to any government groups and is entirely made up of volunteers, ordinary Australians who are banding together to keep and eye on our mates. Staying alert and staying safe to ensure a secure future for the Australian Way of Life.
Weapons of Mass Destruction
Weapons of Mass Destruction, when in the wrong hands, probably pose the single biggest threat to the Australian Way of Life.
Invisible but deadly, Weapons of Mass Destruction can turn the everyday into a nightmare of terror. Imagine an explosion at the Telstra Stadium? A gas attack at Town Hall Station? A state of siege on the Harbour Bridge? An outbreak of a new but deadly virus? Any of these disasters is capable of disrupting work, shopping and sport and causing the breakdown of society as we know it.
Weapons of Mass Destruction are part of a covert declaration of war against ordinary Australians. This is a declaration by terrorists, who are anonymous and hidden among the rich fabric of multicultural Australia. No one knows why these people want to destroy the Australian way of life. Some could be religious fanatics, others are mercenaries, still others are mentally deranged or members of extremist cult or fringe groups who have been brainwashed into believing in salvation through the breakdown of society.
Weapons of Mass Destruction can be made from many ordinary items found around the farm, workplace or home. Most people couldn’t imagine using everyday items for mass destruction, but in the hands of a terrorist, such objects are deadly. That’s why many strategists are saying that the most deadly Weapon of Mass Destruction is the mind of a terrorist.
This is why CacA has developed a series of surveys and factsheets to help ordinary Australians be ALERT BUT NOT ALARMED. We encourage people to be aware of the number of items around their home that could pose a threat to Australian Society, and also to consider how likely it is that terrorists could get access to these. Is your home and garden secure? Are your children adequately supervised? Can you really trust all of your friends and workmates? The War on Terror cannot be fought only by governments but needs ordinary Australians to take an active interest in preserving our unique way of life
Are You A Terrorist?
Like Weapons of Mass Destruction, terrorists could be anywhere. They conceal themselves so well that even people we think we know can be secretly harbouring terrorist intentions or ideas.
Part of being ALERT BUT NOT ALARMED involves being aware that even the most innocent seeming actions, thoughts or works could easily lead to more serious and dangerous activities.
Terrorists often recruit ordinary people by subtle and persuasive means. Terrorists could be among our neighbours, friends, workmates or even our family members.
Terrorists know who to target. They know that some people are more susceptible to being led astray than others. The young, the idealistic and the discontented can be easily persuaded to adopt ideas that are UNAUSTRALIAN. From then on it is only a short slide to actively even if unwittingly supporting terrorism.
This is why CacA has developed a series of surveys and factsheets to help ordinary Australians who want to feel sure that they are not aiding or abetting any terrorists hiding amongst us.
CacA aims to keep Australians informed about the threat that terrorism poses in daily life and to find practical ways that we can all be ALERT BUT NOT ALARMED.
CacA is not affiliated to any government organisations but is not a group of vigilantes either. CacA consists simply of Concerned Alert Citizens of Australia, ordinary people tyring to find common sense ways of dealing with the deadly threat of terrorism.
CacA is entirely made up of volunteers, ordinary Australians who are banding together to keep an eye on our mates. Staying alert and staying safe to ensure a secure future for the Australian Way of Life.
By monitoring our own behaviour and not letting ourselves be vulnerable to the type of mob rule that terrorists thrive on, we can all ensure a more secure Australia.
HOW CAN YOU TELL IF SOMEONE IS A TERRORIST?
TRUE BLUE MINI MATE
Terrorists usually don’t walk around advertising the fact, so knowing the difference between a general trouble maker and a serious threat to society can often prove difficult.
Caca has developed a series of identification charts, to help us study the faces of those we come across, and decide if they pose a threat to the Australian way of life.
Often terrorists give themselves away without really knowing it. A twitch of the lips, a shifty eye, a strange quirk in the nose. While we are not advocating whole scale return to nineteenth century ideas on physiognomy, CacA do believe that the more you familiarise yourself with human nature, the quicker you can come to a decision when it counts.
Study the people around you and ask yourself, what makes them trustworthy? Reliable? Suspicious? Also study the CacA charts and samples and learn to recognise what your gut instincts tell you about someone.
This examination can and should include ourselves. How do we appear to the rest of the world? Suspicious? Alienated? Resentful? Easy going? Reliable? Pleasant? Happy? Completely unaware?
Self examination should be part of your daily preparations in the war against terror, and this can even extend to bodily fluids and excreta. Signs of terrorist sympathy can show up in the strangest places.
