From whom?

From the terrorists of the world who otherwise would be overrunning you bastards!

In my country we elect them to our parliament where they can do minimal harm.

I'll remind you that in your own country five times as many people die EVERY YEAR as a result of homicide by firearms alone than were killed in the 9/11 Al Qaeda attack. It seems to me that your own country has been overrun by terrorists long ago and have their pet legislators so well embedded in your political system that they can and will continue to slaughter your people indefinitely. Your terrorists are your armaments manufacturers.

I think we'll continue to decline your friendly offer of protection, thank you Bob, because your performance in this regard is not encouraging.

I hope the day never comes when the people of Australia face a tyrannical government and are helpless to respond due to your lack of an American Second Amendment and your godforsaken arrogance.

Australia has more politicians per capita than any other country in the world, Bob. We have so many levels of government in this country that it is quite literally ungovernable. This is not made any easier by the cultural zeitgeist of Australia which insists that people who presume who tell us what to do are looking for a boot up the arse at the earliest opportunity. We don't need guns to enforce our rights.

You brain-washed moron. Christian right-wingers have committed more than 5 times as many terrorist attacks in the US than muslims, and they are people like YOU. Your whole country is a terrorist. You are terrorizing each other

Oh yes, a boot is just as effective as a gun against a tyrant, especially if it's a safety boot with a reinforced toe cap to minimize foot injuries.

I'm delighted you think so, Bob. I have a very tasteful line in elegant footwear in my current spring ensemble which will reduce the strongest man to a quivering mass when delivered with precision to an unsuspecting anus. I might warn you that I'm also very handy with both chainsaw and axe should some disrespectful fucker presume to mess with me on my own dunghill. However it's not the politicians I'm the most wary of and they have little to fear from me. It's the shitheads who are invading my culture with their toxic paranoia about a world which is out to get them who have the most to fear from me because I would love nothing better than to personally prove them right.

You know, I always suspected a guy like you might be intimately involved with elegant footwear and spring ensembles. Suspicions confirmed!

If you're questioning my sexuality then you've made a bad guess, Bob. I don't bat for the other team and I wouldn't hesitate to say so if I did. In fact I'm generally regarded as a rather blokey sort of bloke and this is usually reflected in my style of dress.

I suspect bob either lives in camouflage gear with his purple heart permanently pinned to it, or he has to go to those xxxxxxxxxxxos stores.

VT. I'm pretty sure I've rumbled Bob's secret and he's doing his best to destroy my credibility by questioning my depth of character. Bob is in fact not a human being at all and the xxxxxxxos shirts are needed to conceal this embarrassing truth. He is actually an extraterrestrial spy from Tralfamadore on a top secret mission to our planet in search of new exhibits for the inter-galactic zoo. Bolt your doors and hide.

I wasn't questioning your sexuality, I just thought you were a guy who liked nice things.

Quite the reverse. I live like a monk and have very little interest in nice things at all.

But as you said, "I have a very tasteful line in elegant footwear in my current spring ensemble."

He's lucky he can fit into tasteful clothes. It must be awful to be your size and have to wear a parachute and safety pins.
