I wish I could live in Australia. It's such a blessing to not have Google in your country.

It's a nice place but an absolute nanny state. It's not only guns they banned, things like tanning beds are banned as well. If you're a smoker be prepared to pay $20US for a pack of smokes.

Please understand why tanning beds are banned in Australia, melanoma (skin cancer) is the 3rd leading cancer behind breast and prostate cancer.

And besides, it's fucking Australia. Why do you need a tanning bed when it's sunny 360 days of the year? Just step outside with some sunscreen for 5 minutes.

That's not the point, the point is it's not their job to tell you you can't put yourself at risk for cancer.

Mate I don't need the government to make my health decisions for me. I work 6-7 days a week underground in a tunnel, it's not as easy as you think
