I'm not racist but ... : Comments

By Graham Ring, published 5/3/2007

Politics can become pretty exhausting after a while. So here is a little folk tale to help lighten things up.

Spider... who are thes lefties who are saying White Australians are bad? Judging by your post, there's loads of them out there.

It's strange, because I don't seem to come across them.

I sometimes see examples of people pointing out unpleasant bits of Australian history... I sometimes see people questioning our migration policies... I sometimes see people who happen to be white, being criticised for their attitudes.

There's probably a random nutter or two out there who does attack whites as 'bad.' But they're certainly not common.

Who are these lefties with a white bias?

I can't help but wonder if you're simplifying things somewhat to make the majority of lefties seem worse than they really are.

Mr Ring is obviously correct, but - the smugness, the smugness ....

I'll loosely quote a very close to my heart Yorta Yorta woman,
on her opinion of these issue's,
she may have been quoting someone else,
either way I couldn't agree more.

"Integrate, not assimilate,
tossed salad, not melting pot."

Until the 1967 con-job referendum Aboriginals were constitutionally equal as any other Australian, then we had this con-job referendum and subsequent legislation caused them to loose their citizenship.
As a grandmaster “constitutionalist” and Author of the INSPECTOR-RIKATI® book on CD series I have deplored the deception upon not just the Aboriginals but upon the electors to vote in such con-job referendum.

The Commonwealth of Australia was created upon a basis of racism and subsection 51(xxvi) in the Constitution makes this very clear. The colonies (now States) also supported this and till to day remain to do this. Therefore were a racist, regardless if we may not be willing to accept this.
Sure, personally I deplore racism, well when it comes to religion, colour of skin, nationality, but I do support racism (as it now is dubbed) to deny gay people equal rights as married people, as the institution of marriage is for different purposes. A judge in the High Court of Australia now seeks to pursue that gay people are a “race” in the sense of discrimination but reality is they are not a “race” within the meaning of subsection 51(xxvi) regardless of his spin-doctor tactics seeking to be applied.

Lets be realistic discrimination is generally in the eye of the beholder. Again, while I personally oppose any discrimination in regard of race, religion or nationality I do accept that people may discriminate within the constitutional provisions provided for.
If people don’t like this, then to amend the Constitution should be the first thing they should pursue.
It is like smoking. I gave it up more then 20 years ago, but would not oppose someone to smoke because it is not unlawful then I have to recognize their right to smoke.

Well done Mr. Ring,

This shows that Australians, and I mean the Vaaast majority do not have a problem with immigrants of any description.

The problem is the numbers! Everyone loves Tran and Con and Gino and Yusef and have them round for a barbie with halva anytime. After all, the kids all go to the local school.

When you have 13,000 Gino's, Tran's or Yusef's living in the next suburb (all renting from their countryman Sulliman who owns the buildings and runs the sweat shops) and gang warfare with the Grigor's or David's, we have a BIG problem.

When are we going to wake up to the very real fact that it is NUMBERS and not the WHO that is causing the problems. Australia can not solve the world population problem by bringing in one more person from anywhere, so why try? We need to do our best to get people to have a better time in their own country which, if you take the time to ask, is quite often what they would prefer.

Not many people wish to leave their home and kin to move to foreign land unless their home conditions are atrocious which is most often the case.
