Australian citizenship: removing the welcome mat? : Comments

By Peter van Vliet, published 5/12/2006

There is a shift away from a welcoming citizenship process towards a more selective or exclusive process.

Back to a topic, they-Muslims-are the more welcome the less they speak English.

And, following P.Hanson’s suspicions, blacks of South Africa are not really in place in Australia as they already speak English well and are educated much better than their white newly acquired bossy Aussie-“mates” eventually.

Col: "Clearly your “absolute” statement stands corrected, if I can instantly go and produce two separate references to “Pidgeon” (2 from among 1.6 million)."

Sorry, I thought we were talking about Australian English, rather than American. The purported topic is Australian citizenship, is it not - rather than American? Do you propose that we abandon the way we spell words in Australian English? Should we just roll over and administer our new White Australia Policy in American?

Col: "...the individual combinations of letters and the words they form, is at a completely lost as to there syntax."

I guess it would be unkind to refer the above as "deranged verbiage", so I won't :)

Boazy, I don't need to go to YouTube to know that there are religious buffoons out there of all persuasions. However, I would dearly love to get hold of some of whatever it is that you're smoking :)

I think we should be grateful for a free speech mostly exercising in this forum.

To make real Australia much more attractive, moderators of “ethnics” forums that is in different from English languages, usually ban mercilessly participants a n d by disconnecting their IP, providing even a shadow of information about Hanson and reality of xenophobia, racism and mere protectionist “mateship” underlying and ruling this entry-semi-issuing branch of England.

Moreover, some proficiency in a number of languages at least on English-user level allowed me to conclude that there were a particular cohort in any forum who use rudeness and simple swearing with no punishment supposed following.

Maybe, C.J. Morgan is short of these practical acquisitions while trying to delight non-delightABLE .

What are you doing migrating to Australia if you don't agree with it's government or culture? Why have you chosen to live in Australia but can't bring yourself to defend Australia? Why did you migrate to Australia only to refuse to integrate? What are you doing in Australia that you find citizenship so threatening?
Why shouldn't Australia seek out the best of those willing to become citizens and able to contribute to a better Australian society?
As much as Australia can not export her own homegrown trouble makers, there is no reason to accept the importation of trouble in the name of PC altruism.
Australia is constantly filtering her society. The jails attest to this social filtering. Why is it unfair to apply this same filtering prior to social acceptance?
