The real question that Bruce conveniently ignores is why are so many who can't afford a people smuggler discrimminated against as they wait to come here legally. I know some of my friends relatives are in this category and they don't understand how our Government could be so gullible or deceitful in order to appease the UN.

Indeed Otokonoko, there's nothing short of a treasure trove of silliness in Bruce's rant.

And on the note of Secular Australia being a 'cesspit' (to which religious leaders are apparently above according to Bruce);
I must say I find it amusing, and would imagine it alone says a lot about Bruce and his views.

Makes you wonder why he threw it in
(well, I know why *I* would mention a secular community into a refugee debate- but wonder how Bruce sees it (aside from disgust)).

Why should we ignore Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islanders, instead throwing billions at providing safe, well-equipped, above-standard housing for illegal immigrants (who have committed a criminal offense by merely arriving)? Everyone who arrives illegally should be deported, 'nough said.

I have zero time for the enormous disparity between the spending on illegal immigrants and Indigenous Australian's. The second deserve help (by virtue of being here legally, if nothing else), while the others do not. By jumping the queue they have prevented other, more deserving, potential immigrants (often also refugees) from coming here legally. While we continue to mollycoddle them, they'll keep coming.
