Why don't governments restrict oxycontin as aggressively as they restrict ivermectin? Curious, Cairns
Why would Yvette Death "slam" Pauline Hanson over a perfectly reasonable Royal Commission suggestion (CP, 24/1)? What has Death got to worry about? Is her conscience clear or not? Chloe, Kuranda
The protesters are right (CP, 24/1). It is legally a matter of choice to take any medical action. That lesson was learned in 1946. We had a referendum to change the Constitution to ban "civil conscription" in medical services. Current politicians are setting themselves up to face court by applying civil conscription. Terri, Clifton Beach
The thing I don't get is why giant beachfront towers are OK for flats (CP, 24/1) but not OK for clean energy. I'd rather wind turbine towers on our beaches than decimating rainforest around Ravenshoe. At least with beachfront the giant blades can come by barge without any trees being killed. And shouldn't clean energy be generated where it's used to avoid transmission losses and additional wildlife habitat destruction? Greenie, Yorkeys Knob
Can anyone tell me why Novak Djokovic, who did not have covid, was deported for what others might think while several players who were covid-positive were allowed to enter and stay? What are we meant to think about that? Tennis Fan, Mooroobool
With Australia Day coming up we should all remember that those who oppose it are promoting disharmony, disunity and division which eats at the soul of a nation, increases crime and destroys quality of life for all Australians. Patriot, Edmonton
Lefties have cried wolf about covid and climate so many time that us simple villagers just don't believe them any more. Zeb, Miallo
Please stop saying "asymptomatic." The word you're looking for is "healthy." Galadriel, Kuranda
Regarding the slump in standards of aged care (CP, 24/01), extinguishing the elderly early has always been a goal of socialist governments like ours. Not just to save on costs but to eliminate our accumulated wisdom so their propaganda can get more traction. Old Bill, Brinsmead
If you haven't yet woken from the government covid brainwashing, don't worry, you will. Afterwards, you must remember it happened because we let government get too big and too powerful. Higgs, Tolga
Greg Hunt, the federal health minister, has said the covid-omicron wave has peaked. Will Premier Ponygirl start to listen to her federal superiors? Polly-watcher, Kamerunga
You know that drone swarm over Docklands? (CP, 24/1) They can be fitted with small explosives and programmed to land on your head and blow up. Glenn, Manunda
Governments confuse me (24/1). They make some drugs illegal, leading to bad outcomes. They make other drugs compulsory, leading to bad outcomes. How about government just back off and leave drugs to adults and their doctors? Andreas, Earlville
The Cairns Post print edition (24/01) is at odds with both its own website and reality. There were 2000 or more freedom marchers, and we continued after it started pouring rain. Politicians would be wise to pay attention. Their covid rules have broken both Australian Law and International Agreements. Protester, Kanimbla
The under-occupation of social housing (CP, 24/1) is one of those problems that nearly 40 years of Labor governments have been unable to fix. Houso, Mooroobool
No aboriginal person still maintains a pre-1788 lifestyle, and none ever return to it. All have adopted most of the conveniences of an advanced industrial society. Complaining of perceived injustices 10 to 12 generations ago is motivated by either politics or greed. Prove me wrong. Stephen, Gordonvale
We're living in strange times. Logic, reason and rationality are vilified. The scientific method is somehow "racist." Group-think rules over individual inquiry. Independent thinkers are deplatformed. History is forgotten. Laws are ignored by governments. And all this for a disease that 99.8% survive without treatment. Raj, Edmonton
So if 'RAT stocks won't be replenished for weeks' our anti-Australian governments had better drop their destructive and illegal mandates, ay? Ocker, Brinsmead
Rick of Redlynch, governments all around the world have politicised Covid from the beginning, exactly as the WEF and WHO told them to. The 'Diamond Princess' cruise ship gave us the data we needed to know it was just another flu that behaved and was treatable like any other flu. This has never been about health and has always been about the expansion of government powers. Analyst, Cairns
People who move to the CBD and then complain about music are just like people who move close to the airport and then complain about aircraft noise - i.e. non-thinkers. One Tooth Wally, Cairns North
East coast annual rainfall (CP, 24/1) is trending upwards. Tim Flannery was unavailable for comment. Mark, Redlynch
If we don't need guns for self defense because we can call the police, why are fire extinguishers compulsory in commercial buildings for defense from fire when we can call the fire brigade? Mac, Cairns
The thing to remember about Jacinda Ardern (CP, 14/1) is that she's one of the World Economic Forum's "Young Global Leaders of Tomorrow" and everything she does, even calling off her own wedding, is planned and scripted and intended to achieve a political purpose. Tony, Atherton
Those applauding the banning of online bullying (24/1) don't seem to realise they're playing into totalitarian hands. Without totally free speech, offensive or not, all other rights and freedoms are easily removed. Online abuse is easy to deal with. Totalitarian governments are not. Francine, Cairns
Smarter governments than ours (Sweden, England, Scotland, Japan, Florida, etc) have ended (or never had) tyrannical covid restrictions and had results no worse than ours. It's time our governments admitted they've been acting as instructed by globalists and not in our best interests. They need to remember they are not immune from future prosecution. Barry Starr, Cairns
Indigenous disadvantage in 2022 (CP, 24/01) is entirely because of indigenous communities being run as socialist enclaves. Get rid of the socialists and the socialist mindset and the indigenous disadvantage would disappear within 20 years. Marie, Malanda
This "first nations treaty" nonsense is Marxism 101 - "Divide and conquer." After 234 years we're all just Australians now. Those who promote division on the basis of race are the actual racists. Jen, Edge Hill
Professor Albert Einstein defined idiocy as doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. The smartest man to have lived would think Australian governments are truly idiotic. Owen, Freshwater
Organisations that exclude the unvaccinated are really saying their customers only like catching covid from the vaccinated. Tracy, Edge Hill
The current covid response and vaccine coercion will be remembered as a catastrophic moral crime. GP, Whitfield
