Political Language Is the Problem. Band-Aid Solutions Are the Result

For more than four decades, Australians have seen terrorist ideology openly displayed in this country — on our streets, online, and in public forums. ISIS flags, extremist slogans, and hate speech have not been hidden. They have been filmed, photographed, shared on social media, and reported by mainstream media.

Yet successive Australian governments have failed to act.

Despite clear evidence — including police intelligence, court proceedings, and publicly available footage — laws have not been enforced in a way that matches the seriousness of the crimes. Judges routinely fail to apply full sentences to individuals involved in terrorism-related offences, illegal gun manufacturing, or hate speech directed at Australians.

Now, instead of addressing this long-standing failure, the government has announced a gun buyback scheme.

This misses the point entirely.

Terrorists do not rely on lawful gun ownership. If firearms are unavailable, they will use bombs, vehicles, knives, or any other means necessary. The threat is not the tool — it is the ideology.

As shown in this video, everything discussed here exists in the public domain. This information has not been hidden. It has been visible for decades. It has also been reported by mainstream media — yet too often without facts, context, or accountability. Media outlets have chosen emotional language over factual reporting, prioritising offence avoidance over public safety.

Australia does not need more symbolic policy announcements.
It needs:
• laws that match the crimes,
• enforcement without political fear,
• full sentencing applied by the courts,
• and factual reporting without ideological language.

The issue is terrorism — not guns.
