He complains that that counter terrorism legislation is eroding democratic traditions and making well funded counter terrorism organizations too powerful. This he thinks is a bad thing because terrorism is an “irrational fear.” being “exploited for government partisan political purposes.’
Then Bill bursts out of his Trojan Horse and implies that this “irrational fear” is just a measure of white Australian xenophobia about the importation of foreigners and border protection.
Look Bill. People like you wanted a multicultural society and now you are getting it. “Racists” like me told you what would happen if we imported people into this country who’s values, attitudes and behaviours were diametrically opposed to that of a western democratic society we wish to preserve. And we were right. We predicted ghettoism with high levels of criminal behaviour and high levels of welfare dependency, and we were right. We predicted race riots and social strife and we were right. . We also predicted terrorism and were right. We predicted that our cherished democratic rights and freedoms would come under attack to fight this crime and terrorism, and guess what Bill? We were right.
People like you are incredible, Bill. You advocate fairy land policies based upon unobtainable moral absolutes, and when your cherished dream turns into a nightmare, you complain about what is happening to your society, blame the people that opposed your views all along, demand that your failed policies continue, and attack the people who have to deal with the avoidable problems that people like you created
