Heres one you left of your list:

A religious diversity handbook given to Victorian police officers that recommends special treatment for suspects of Muslim, Aboriginal, Hindu and Buddhist background...

Police are told: "In incidents such as domestic violence, police need to have an understanding of the traditions, ways of life and habits of Muslims."

They are told it would be appreciated in cases of domestic violence if police consult the local Muslim religious leader who will work against "fragmenting the family unit".

PC is sick, here is is aiding domestic violence... to stand up against such a foul practice by a minority would be racist... so much for PC idealism

Meredith... thanx moit :)

Philo mentioned that book, and I have read such things myself.. the problem is.. 'where do we stop' in exposing this pernicious influence growing like a cancer on our peace loving socieity ? The list would be endless.

The amazing thing to me is that while I seek always to put 'well documented and sourced' material....I'm accused by F.H. as
"Liar"
"Misrepresenter"

In the end, truth will be seen for what it is.

On Mr Ruddock, and 'free speech' he wrote me a letter telling me that its 'ok' for people to buy XXX rated Porn from ACT by mail order, even though every STATE has outlawed the sale of it.

Interestingly, they have not outlawed the 'possession' of it, so one is attracted to the conclusion that they are only interested in being 'seen' to do right while they actually do evil.

Also the conclusion that there may well be 'vested interest' in the porn industry by 'influential political figures' is difficult to escape.

As for these current laws, well, 'sneaky' is the name of the political game. The Democrats or Greens are just as sneaky as the rest, so it leaves 'Barnaby and FF' to keep those bastards honest :)

Though the recent arrests of suspected bombers does persuade me that the need for 'detention' without trial for a given period is real and justified. Can you imagine the outcome if:
- such people had 'other' stockpiles of more advanced chemical cocktails.
-Were granted bail on some technicality.
-Realized they have very limited time for their 'Jihad'.

cheeers all.

Chances of me giveing Phil a big hug are zero chances of me ever voteing for him or his mob are less.
But I am like most Australians from the middle of the road and want more to silence idiots who threaten my fellow Australians than to wimper about freedoms.
The very same freedoms that are so often used against us so go for it Phil.

"religious diversity handbook given to Victorian police officers that recommends special treatment for suspects of Muslim, Aboriginal, Hindu and Buddhist background..."

And how many times do you think police consult their blooyd handbooks? Puleeeze!

Rainer,

Ever since they can be sued for actions "unPC" people have been begrudgingly forced to curtail to it. There will be police obeying this to protect themselves, it is probably why it was written in the first place.

Maybe its time the PC addressed itself, and the damage it has done to society? I hope you and your nasty ideology are happy in the knowledge your not being racist

Dear Boazy

Religion of all shades, particularly the powerful Christian denominations, are also a form also of political correctness (PC).

As your post above indicates, representatives of moral PC (expressed through religion) seek to shut down the ACT's XXX porn industry.

I see it as the very expression of the ACT's opposition to PC that is has successfully fought to keep the industry open over the years. The same goes for the ACT permitting legal brothels.

Your political correctness would also seek to prevent "people ... buy[ing] XXX rated Porn from ACT by mail order'

You obviously agree with the political correctness of "every STATE" outlawing the "the sale of it".

You don't want the ACT to be different. If that is not political correctness what is?

You clearly want to outlaw "the 'possession' of it". Should thought police raids follow?

Is expressing a different position from the States an "evil".

Of course there are "'vested interest' in the porn industry". It’s a business. It is permitted by elected secular political figures and the ACT's secular legal system.

Boaz would you prefer a religious court or group of church Elders having a say in the matter…road to sharia?

P.S. Despite that mate. I'm glad you’re also coming around to supporting the proposed anti-terror laws. With your key endorsement I assume that many more in OLO will follow.
