"Diversity is NOT unity, NOR does it create a strong society"

Now..for Steve Maddens benefit. Did you see the headline in the Sunday Herald today ? (Of course not :) ..its a 'NEWS' publication)
But here are the essential parts of the major headline.

MUSLIM CABBIES REFUSE BLIND AND DRINKERS.

Now.. past the headline, we find some facts:

1/ At least 20 dog-aided blind people have lodged discrimination complaints with the Victorian Taxi Directorate. Dozens more have voiced their anger.

2/ Victorian Taxi Association spokesman Neil Sach said the association had appealed to the mufti of Melbourne to give religious approval for Muslim cabbies to carry guide dogs.

Does anyone see what I see here ?

1/ Discrimination based on religion (against Australians)
2/ Sharia law via 'asking the mufti' if its ok.

The plain fact is...it is ILLEGAL to deny a blind person a ride in a cab due to his dog. So...WHY is anyone asking the Mufti ? rather than asking the Equal Opportunity Commission or the LAW ?

I've said repeatedly, that to encourage and nourish 'difference' in cultural terms, to pander to minority cultures and religions ..to 'respect' them.. will does, and HAS lead/led to the above incident.

Special for Steve Madden. "are u going to claim that Muslims cabbies HATE blind people just like you claim some of us 'hate' anyone who is different ? or you going to see the discriminatory error of your ways ? :)

IT GETS WORSE.

"Muslims are good people and the community has to realise that the days of the white Anglo-Saxon Protestant are well and truly over,"
(Neil Sachs, Taxi Driver association spokesperson)

Is that right Neil ? Actually, the 'day' was never about that, because it includes probably more CATHOLICS than protestants. But newsflash, this country still consists of 68% 'White/Anglo' backgrounded people.

Neils comments simply CONFIRM the claims of anti ethnic immigrationists that they will TRY TO CONTROL the cultural agenda once numbers are sufficient. Its now the "Day if Islam" in Australia ?
Is there any other way to interpret Neil Sach's remarks ?

Dear abyss,

Thanks for taking time to articulate your “supremist views”. I acknowledge the fact that the sharper end of your ‘bandwagon’ has learnt a fair bit from the emergence of neo-cons and is thriving in the current political climate of fear and hatred.

Instead of using HEAVY words such as ‘nihilism’ you could have responded to some of the questions I raised in my article. Instead you have come up with a classic neo-conservative response…accuse, ridicule, and character assassination...with a sectraian touch. How sad! Only, if you could hide the obvious hypocrisies of your narcissistic rubbish.

On one hand you defend the idea of ‘Australian Values’ (seemingly a call for compliance...not that anyone knows what they are) and on the other hand you accuse me of ‘herd instinct’ for raising multicultural issues…all in one breath. Then you go on to subscribe to OCCIDENTALISM…So mush for your ethos of individualism.

The likes of you (Col Rouge and company) are stuck at the darkest bend of your own little abyss and don’t represent the mainstream Australia I know. I have a lot of faith in my fellow Australians, Anglos and non-Anglos!

Nevertheless, I am glad that this debate has encouraged you to express your fears and anxieties

Golly, we're getting personal a lot.

What's meant by difference-haters as being the problem, is MC only works when the majority accepts it can work , front-page sensationalism excepted.

Look at the benefits of MC. I love living in a country with so many cultures and peoples.

I could say to all those complaining, "why don't you move to such-and-such a country where this-or-that doesn't happen"...but I won't. I believe we've got no choice to accept those already here.

Boazy

If you are going to quote the article why did you forget “Mr Sach said the problem was often reversed and that Muslim drivers suffered discrimination from passengers who abused them for being "terrorists".”

T800 the fool who thought he was a member of One Nation only to find he was not, there were only 3 members Pauline and the two Davids. (Liberal party stooges trying to undermine the Qld Nationals).

Col Rouge the LIAR who thinks intelligent debate is to cut and paste someone’s comments and append a snide comment (Been doing it for years Col how about some constructive comments?)

And dear Boazy who I kind of like, stuck in his open brethren quagmire, who relates everything back to the bible as is unable to function without his crutch.

Any more intolerant racists want to try to belittle my views, come on wallys make yourselves look even bigger fools than you already have.

I remember when this was a tolerant country, if you called a Croatian a Yugoslav he would tell you the difference, when lebo rolls were a new taste treat, when a souvlaki or falafel were special.

Now thanks to Howard’s cowardly politics of division we have all the racist worms crawling out of their putrefying holes to spread the cancer of hatred for his political advantage.

Steve... why I did not mention that is very simple.

Abuse of Muslim drivers, I suggest is the act of a loony jingoistic rabble. I also believe that such people are not part of a particular identifiable sub culture which is trying to force everyone else to call muslim taxi drivers 'terrorists'.

The actions of the Muslim drivers is 'calculated, deliberate and illegal and is an overt attempt to promote Sharia religious/cultural law over Secular Australian law.'

Im surprised you even brought that up. You could have paid much more serious attention to the implied cultural threat by Mr Sachs "When we get/have the numbers, you are OUT"

Now.. lets get serious here. That is virtually seditious. It is definitely culturally seditious, and while not actually illegal it is definitely brazen and threatening and confrontational.

That to me is by FAR the more important point in this story.

I've written to mr Sach accordingly, and to the herald feedback.

This incident is just another well deserved nail in the coffin of multi culturalism.

Emphasizing difference, accepting culturally incompatable people to 'our' land :) (thought u might like that) and then PROMOTING their incompatable values is ludicrous.

How did Cronulla occur ? Another easy one.

a) A period of values conflict between isolationist migrants and their offspring.
b) MultiCultural encouragement of "My culture has to be respected too"
c) An incident of physical violence which caused a) and b) to come to a head.

Now this is EXACTLY what happened between the Muslims and Christians of Sulawesi/Ambon etc. A Muslim kid was playing up, and was ejected from a bus, he reports "They (Christians) beat the crap out of me waaaaaaah" to his mob and the next thing you know 10,000 homes are burned (that is a real statistic by the way)

There's only one problem with 'multiculturalism' and its 'people' !
So, until you can produce new people, lets dump this flawed policy.

Steve madden, one of the main things I would put in a referendum would be to ask, Do Australian laws and VALUES come before any ethnic persons own culture?

Because it is obvious that many new comers here are ignoring our laws and probably will go on ignoring our laws unless they are stopped.
Lebanese gang rapists said they were going to teach the Australian girls how "Lebs do it!"
The likes of Trad and Hilali who are help up as some kind of criteria is not helping Muslims any .
I do not give a hoot whether you agree or disagree, I am not interested. But I know what is truth and what is not truth.
And turning our beautiful land back to a medievil oppressive tyranny will not happen if we can help it.
