oncearugge Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 They should be immediately returned to wherever they came from. Take some lessons on how to stop boats from the Australians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yahooka Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 They should be immediately returned to wherever they came from. Take some lessons on how to stop boats from the Australians.
