All muslims are peace loving individuals, with an open heart and an open mind. I know, I've met one?

Okay, for those of you who want something to hold on to:

The point of the article is that on an individual basis, many of us feel kinship with immigrants - how can it be otherwise, when such a large part of our population is derived from migration. These same people who feel kinship with the individual, can sometimes be those who are stridently opposed to immigration.

I thought it was kind of amusing seeing all the anti-immigrationists line up and try to find something to attack in what was really, a pretty unassailable article.

It's only patronising if it is below someone's intelligence - and quite frankly, I think some (of course, not all) of the screeching rhetoric that surrounds this issue occasionally needs a reality check... perhaps that's exactly what this piece is.

I don't think your racist either, you just don't like people until you get to know them. You may be unsocial but not really racist.
I'd only think you were racist if you actively discriminated against certain people because of their race even when you did know them. Doesn't sound like you do that at all.

Hey, I don't like teenagers either, they tend to hang around each other and speak their own language. Except for my nephew of course, and that nice kid who delivers my papers. And that one who works at the local cafe.

Am I ageist?

Australia is a great country and gives oppurtunity to her diverse population. But what if we open her borders to all and sundry? Will the opportunity be the same? Will living standards be the same? Will housing affordability decline? If the benefit to some comes at the expense of many, then shouldn't the decision be a democratic one?

It seems that everywhere I look, some ratbag leftie is spreading propaganda that all white Australian's are bad and that it is our reasons that immigrants are not fitting in. In reality, they refuse to fit in due to this enforced segregation of people and genocide of Australian and Aboriginal cultures.

I always love how these self haters are keen to ignore the rate of hatred pushed onto the white Australian by those immigrants who refuse to adopt Australia as their own. You only have to look at Sydney where Asian store owners refuse to serve us unless you yell at them.

When I worked for a government corporation owned by the federal government, Asian's constantly slandered the few white Australian's there while management and government turned the blind eye to such racial prejudice. And here's a landmine; when I worked for Australia Post in Sydney, they were illegally employing Filopino's who were still in the Filopines. Politicians ignored that too while OUR unemployed were refused such employment, only to be slandered as welfare bludgers.

I hope Australia First Party gets their candidate for Cronulla up. Australia needs a shake up.
