Reference :- Many folk fear for the security of the nation .

Reference :-    Isis fighters are returning to the country  , we are told .

 

This is most alarming .  Already 4 women and 13 children have arrived on our shores .  It is said that security agencies are keeping a close eye on them , but can we trust them to do their job ? 

Personally , I think that we must take individual responsibility when facing a threat of such magnitude .  And nobody should be fooled by the fact that some of the children are very young .  As a parent myself , I know what young children are capable of .  Besides , young children grow up . Far better that they stay overseas in a squalid refugee camp where they are unlikely to be radicalized .  I can hardly imagine the extremist views that they would develop if they grew up here in Australia . 

There is no time to waste , and the lads and I are preparing for the likelihood of future terrorist attacks .   Car bombings feature regularly on the tele , and we think that armor plating the ute is a priority .  Ken junior is pretty good with a welder , and since the railway closed there are plenty of abandoned tracks we can put to use .  Monte reckons the extra weight will slow the old ute down , but those Holden motors from the sixties can pull anything if you don't mind using a bit more petrol .   I reckon a few extra gallons of a petrol is a small price to pay for piece of mind . 

Your comrade , Ken 

P.S.  If any of our regular readers can tell us how to make unobtrusive body armor out of corrugated iron we would be most grateful .  We are keen to protect ourselves without looking too much like Ned Kelly .
