Come off it Brian.

These people are supposed to be seeking refuge. That why they claim to be refugees.

Well they've got refuge. Nice safe refuge, where they are housed, fed, given medical treatment, & offered all sorts of facilities, many Ozzies can't afford.

They have just proved they are not refugees, seeking refuge, but bludgers after a cushy life on our welfare. If they wanted to escape from danger they would be singing our praises for taking them away from it, & protecting them.

No need for further deliberations. Any of these people who are complaining, or rioting, have proved that safety is not their objective, so are not refugees, & can be returned to the point they claim is their origin.

QED.

Mr Bartlett. As of this morning,21/2,why have you not responded even to one of the 28 replies?
Leslie,
What do you expect from a moron ?

Gee! There are a lot of OLO morons, more so than the writer of the article.

Leslie: As of this morning,21/2,why have you not responded even to one of the 28 replies?

People like Bartlett, Costello, Pilger, Haigh & Flannery only write the article. It get's picked up by Graham for debate. I doubt whether they have even seen their article posted here. Graham would have got permission to reproduce it here. These people never look at any of the comments. Commenting is just for us to bust our guts on.

Mise: I have lived in a 16 man tent, it's not perfect but it's not bad;

I lived in a 10 man tent with 9 others for 12 months. Wasn't bad. Hot & cold running water right on 4 o'clock every afternoon, just stepped outside for a shower then dryed of naturally at 1/4 past. Yeah, . No TV or Card table or daily paper. The roar of jets taking off & landing every 15 minutes was a bit off putting though. Over all I don't know what these blokes are complaining about.

OH! Well done Banjo. ;-O & YEBIGA could that be a word puzzle for "By Geia" (by the Mother Earth Goddess) or Gaybie.

How are these monsters different from the 'boat people'?

Recently In Melbourne, 11 year Luke Baty was stabbed to death by his father.

Australia's police continue to report that domestic violence absorbs more of their time then all other crimes combined.

3 years ago a father was convicted of murdering 3 of his sons driving his car into a dam and leaving them to drown whilst he away swam to safety.
2 years ago one father threw his child off the top of the west gate bridge.
There are woman abducted by complete strangers, raped, killed and their bodies dumped.

Appears to be a fair amount of sickos here and, I know this might shock you, they are almost never Muslims and almost always Secular Christians - good old quintessential Aussie battlers no less.

Never thought of that did you? The mainstream media narrative, Murdoch dishes out will get you to believe any crap he wants. Before long people find themselves cheering for wars, cheering for detention and humiliation of refugees, justifying torture, imprisoning children, soon all the unemployed are welfare cheats, the increasing number of homeless begging on our streets disgust you. Aged Pensioners are a selfish drain on the economy...Soon everyone's looking in all the wrong places for all the wrong things.

I am firmly of the belief that the western epidemic of mental health problems is directly related to our increasingly unforgiving culture. A few decades ago, we were a country proud of our impeccable human rights record, and our social welfare safety net. Now we are proud of being proud. Now, it is not sufficient for us to just ignore those who are suffering but to add insult to injury, we vilify them and invent malicious motives for their pitiful state.

It is little wonder, when some minor misfortune fractures our comfortable illusion we require so much regular prescription of drugs, to sleep, to cope and are beset by an ever growing number of mental health disorders or we make our partners lives miserable or even murder our own children.
