A sad and familiar story of governments using weapons against peaceful protestors who have a right in a democratic society to disagree with the government.
The government will not admit that weapons were used which further places them in an unlawful act against their people.
But, wouldn’t the protestors claim that the government through the police used weapons against them? Wouldn’t they want to discredit the government with lies? What evidence do these protestors have?
Let’s look at the facts as the facts speak for themselves.
- The photo above was taken in Canberra on Saturday, February 12, 2022 as ordinary Australians protested outside Parliament House against vaccine mandates. Note the head gear worn by some officers, and either the headphones or ear muffs worn by the officer closet to the device.
- Police lined up in phalanx formation closest to the protesters were wearing earplugs, as though they knew the device would be used, despite the fact that there were children and elderly in the crowd.
- When the police commissioner was asked questions regarding the use of LRAD devices, he was hesitant to answer and had to get advice before he answered the question. We are still waiting for an answer. It seems delay in answering questions never seems to end. A far more reasonable approach is to answer the questions within a time period. It seems a coverup is happening. Openness and transparency is something this government does not seem to value.
You be the judge to the answers given in a senate enquiry by the police commissioner. He definitely is not open and forthcoming, but rather guarded and evasive.
While these are not conclusive facts, there is enough evidence that requires an investigation into the use of LRAD. This is a criminal activity, if it is proven to be have been used. All the police in attendance will need to be investigated for possible involvement.
The last video shows the reaction from the government. It is not one of concern but of complete disdain for the protestors. The speaker even scoffs “In due course”, meaning? Well, it is never likely to be answered. Are these politicians really fit to govern this country?
In latest update the speaker of the house to confirm that LRAD was used to communicate to the large crowd. I was there the whole time and I did not hear of any instructions given by police to the large crowd. LRAD is typically used as a weapon to disperse crowds, which can be looked up on many sources on the internet. The response is on Craig Kelly’s twitter page
