    They had _riots_ that involved 5,000 people trying to force their way 
into Parliament when it voted to cut welfare.  Don't let anyone tell you the

    Look at Australia...similar riots yesterday caused heavy damage to 
Parliament and many injuries when government moved to cut welfare.  Don't let 
anyone tell you the lie that these nations have some kind of
"domestic tranquility" we don't.
