re the crowbars: quote a source.... i doubt they are banning them outright, i suspect there it toughens penalties for carrying one in an offensive manner...

Theres no such thing as freehold real estate, im one of the few aussies that know that people theoretically dont own their ownhouse, aussies hold it in an "estate and fee simple" Land Tax is effectively land rent. Section 51 of our consitution allows the federal government to aquire land but they have to have just cause and pay compensation.

Ironic thing is that America had a revolution because the citizens wanted to own their own land, but today citizens in the US dont own land at all, the government has clawed it back bit by bit over time, thats why they can borrow so much money, because they have real estste to back it with.
