As an outsider, but living in a country with white christian leaders determined to drag us in the US's footsteps instead of taking it's direction from mature, morally enlightened and socially responsible nations, I'm crying for you all.
We're currently facing laws that will strip away human rights that have been inherent in our legal system since our federation. We've already had marriage declared as a possession of the christian church here, instead of the state, which it should be.
Racism, fear, terrorism, intollerance and stupidity are becoming prevalent, and any steps we were taking towards social maturity have been eroded.
