Online-east, I am afraid you are right and that Frankgol is completely out of step with reality. Not only is the piece by the Scotsman right, but also the contributions from the rest also point in the same direction here.

We have been too tolerant of these Muslim immigrants for too long. There are very few of them who can be trusted. I am glad that my time left on this earth is fairly short and that I will probably not be around to see the takeover of our country by Muslims, but I am sure that will happen.

The stable door is well and truly open and the horse has long since bolted.

VK3AUU says I am "is completely out of step with reality". His version of reality is: "that my time left on this earth is fairly short and that I will probably not be around to see the takeover of our country by Muslims, but I am sure that will happen".

No empirical evidence; no argument; no references; no historical trend data; nothing but fear. Oh, and a good wallop of irrational xenophobia: "We have been too tolerant of these Muslim immigrants for too long. There are very few of them who can be trusted." (My father once told me never to trust people whose eyes are too close together. Really!)

Blind fear and prejudice are the enemies of clear thinking

I am all for immigration, imagine what Australian cuisine would be like without the culinary delights of the Greeks, Italians, Vietnamese and all the other wonderful things multiculturalism brings.

What I am against is Muslim immigration into Australia. This culture does not want to assimilate but control.

What has Muslim immigration contributed to Australia apart from violent crime and a belief that that they are the superior race.

Wake up Australia; learn by the problems other countries are now facing with this group of people.
