If fake news includes misleading news, then most of the crap you read about Australia is fake news.

Let's start with the 1996 government funded gun confiscation. The government ordered a surrender of many common firearms, and offered a bounty for them. A very healthy bounty. AND for accessories as well. If the government offered you $1000 for an AR15 and $80/mag wouldn't you turn one in? Or a few? The fact of the matter is that most gun owners did surrender firearms, made a healthy profit and bought a new house. NOBODY I know turned in all of their banned firearms. During the 1996 confiscation, 660,000 guns were turned in. Contrast that with the 400,000 SKS rifles that were in country. Soo.....everyone turned in all the SKSs and another 220,000 guns. Uh, right. Uh, no. Australia is awash with non-compliant firearms.

Now, on the topic of the asylum seekers from Manus: you'd do exactly the same the Australia did. Hear me out. Australia is 8-10 years ahead of USA on the political spectrum. They went way left. They gave refuge to all sorts of Muslim refugees. And paid the price. It doesn't make the news in USA, because it doesn't fit the MSM agenda. So go read AUS news. Their Muslim imports have locked the country in terrorism. Australia has 10% of the US population, but the same number of terror attacks. So the people got sick of the crap, kicked out the Greenies and Leftists and make it clear NO MORE REFUGEES. So the new PM Turnbull knows Trump is incoming, and solves his problem by appealing to outgoing crook Obama to take those poor refugees of his hands. Voila. Problem solved. You'd have done the same thing. Trump is pissed at Turnbull because he pre-gamed him. They'll get over it.
You're Australian?
