Asylum seekers are victims of selfishness : Comments

By Bruce Haigh, published 6/5/2016

Australia is a sick country, primarily because it has become such a selfish and self-centred country. A sense of entitlement pervades, indeed is encouraged and fostered within the ruling class and politicians.

So, what has changed? Do you have a response? We know the answer! Australia is the “least” selfish country on earth.

You say – “They (the government) feel charged with the responsibility for protecting privilege from the incursions of coloured “outsiders”.
Really Bruce – coloured outsiders? - that’s an extremely racist statement.

Have you asked our wonderful pakistans, Indians, Sri-Lankans, Islanders, Fijians, plus other cultures if they feel like “outsiders”?

Have you ever actually attended a cricket match Aust v Pakistan, v India, v Sri-Lanka, v New Zealand, or any other sporting event (I can name heaps) and see the level of enthusiasm other cultures have for their home (birth) country – albeit now citizens of Australia - the level of cheering, singing, chanting, bells, whistles , horns etc sitting beside, amongst, in the middle of us, those (sick, selfish, self-centred) Aussies who sing and chant along with the rest, with both sides having a fun day out. What’s wrong with the above picture?

Or maybe Bruce the above picture of fun and friendship extended by Aussies to all cultures, colours, race and creeds in sport, life, community, work, times of fire or flood or tragedy, etc doesn’t fit in with your “grand agenda” of nonsense?

You say – “Australia is running a gulag, a concentration camp".

Bruce – Really, that statement is outrageous and disrespectful.

Daily Telegraph 18 May –“ Two asylum seekers who went on a violent booze and drug-fuelled rampage on Manus Island yesterday were badly bashed by angry locals after they tried to steal a TV.

(Bruce – so you expect Australians to accept persons who engage in criminal activity?)

Provincial police commander Acting Superintendent David Yapu has ordered a crackdown on crimes by “Foreigners” after an investigation by the Daily Telegraph revealed an illicit black market trade in Australian taxpayer-funded cigarettes, drug and alcohol abuse and sex with local girls.

(Bruce – so you expect Australians to accept persons who engage in criminal activity?)

“We cannot entertain that kind of behaviour,” Acting Supt Yapu said.
“It is unacceptable and unethical and these foreigners must respect the laws of this country. We will lock them up and throw away the key”.

(Bruce – those who run illicit black market trades, in cigarettes, drugs and alcohol and engage in any other criminal activity obviously don’t respect the laws of PNG, do you really expect them to respect the laws of Australia? – don’t think so)

Almost 900 asylum seekers at the Australian-Funded centre on the PNG Island have been allowed to visit town, go fishing and take beach outings under relaxed security restrictions at the site.” (End )

Must be a tuff life at Manus Mansion – all that fishing, beach outings, visiting town, run illicit black market trades in cigarettes, drugs and alcohol, etc etc etc Yawn, yeah Burp! – life is certainly tuff. Burp!

Paul Walter

You say -“No doubt Bruce Haigh is right. The asylum seeker issue has really shown up some ignored, unhealthy and infantile traits as to the mentality of many Australians. Scared little children, hiding in the dark, in case the coffee skinned bunyip comes after them and it is pathetic”.

Wrong Paul – how about considering another point of view.

The economic “illegal boat people” are criminals. Paid criminals (people smugglers) to get to Australia. These people were in a safe country, they chose to “queue jump” by paying criminals to board a boat.

Do people smugglers (criminals) care that 1,200 souls – that we know of – drowned at sea, no. They got their money, safety of life means nothing to them.

The Government and relative agencies determine who migrates to Australia – not criminal people smugglers and their clients.

Australians have always welcomed multicultural migration, no matter colour, creed, religion or race. Most respect and obey Australia’s laws and lifestyle, and have for many generations lived in peace.

In your post you didn’t mention those that are now in Australia who chose to commit acts of terrorism on Australians – a host country – who provided them shelter and safety from war!

We aren’t the ignorant ones with unhealthy and infantile traits, you might like to point the proverbial finger elsewhere.

Why has the Government allocated a further $40M to Islamac Health Agencies in order for youth – and yes, they are our youth as they live in Australia – to become de-radicalised?

The youngest to become radicalised being 14 – in NSW! I can assure you when most normal people are 14 their brains aren’t working out how to blow up or kill people.

Fact – Islamist radicals have come in with the large refugee intake.

Wake up Paul, Australians aren’t “scared little children, hiding in the dark, in case the coffee skinned bunyip comes after them”.

Although we might, if said “child” was 14 years old and pointing a gun yelling fanatical rantings to all and sundry in his sight!

cheerful: What I see is this tribe of people the Tamils,who immigrated to Sri Lanka and then 200years or so later tried to carve a piece of Sri Lanka off for themselves.

The same thing will happen in Australia with the influx of moslims except they will want the whole Country & non-moslims will be considered outsiders.

Bruce: “Australia is running a gulag, a concentration camp".

Try comparing the standard of the UNCHR Camps to Australia's Camps. A world of difference. Australia's Camps are the top end of luxury for these people, but apparently they're not good enough for them.

SAINT: Why has the Government allocated a further $40M to Islamac Health Agencies in order for youth – and yes, they are our youth as they live in Australia – to become de-radicalised?

$40 Million wasted because their Koran come before everything else & what the koran says they do. For $40 Million they can be taught to lay low until the right time but they can never be de-radicalized.

Aidn <Worse still, you fail to make a distinction between terrorists and people who merely share their ethnicity and nationality. People like you are the problem.>

And if the Tamil Tigers had succeeded in taking a piece of Sri Lanka to govern
would the Tamils who werent Tamil tigers, have told them to give the country back
or would they have flocked there in massive numbers declaring it to now be there own country.

Thats why there is no difference between the Tamil Tigers and The Tamil bloodline.
Niether would give back ant terriroty they took.
The human race is tribally(bloodline), terrortorial. And that is the problem, the reason we dont have world peace,not people like me who point this out.
Racism is not some strange unreasonable dislike, it is terrortorial hostility.

Watch any species on the planet turn threatening and intimidating when another animal
comes onto its terrortory. Then realise this threatening hostility is what humans call racism, like it is some unfathomable intolerance.
In biology the reason for it is very clear.
And all the terrortorial wars across history are also very clear. The prize is always control of the land and resources.
of the land and resources. That is the problem, not people like me, who try to make the world understand this.

Yes Jayb the moslems will demand the country and if you do not submit
to Islam you will be expelled or killed as required by the Koran.
You may be allowed to stay if you pay the Jizas tax to the mosque.

For an example see the middle east, look how they have driven the
Christians and others out of their homes and countries.
It is no secret, they are obeying their prophet.

We have concrete modern examples of this behaviour and still the
bleeding hearts want to kowtow to Islam. It has been going on for 1400
years and still they can't see it!
