"Did you see all the minorities howling for more? Demanding this and demanding that? Yelling over the top of the PM. This classical minority behavior, giving very little but expecting very much."

Deadset delusional.

Foxy: "You state that the 'double standard' is alive and well amongst Australian Jewry. But the same thing can be said for fanatics amongst all peoples. You get the Zionists among the Jews. The Fundamentalists among the Christians, the Muslim extremists, and so on."

You're right, of course, Foxy, which is why I am careful to refer to "Zionists" and "pro-Zionists" in discussions about Israel. In this case, however, the outcry has been more widespread in the Jewish community, which is what I was referring to. The double standard is flourishing in the world today. From politics to religion to sport to criminal enforcement to family law, to gender matters, there is one standard for "us" (those who "have the right") and "them" (those who aren't "us"). Everyone can point to someone who they believe should not be protected in the same way that they themselves are.

Once, this way of thinking was regarded as sloppy and weak; today it is the basis for ruining a woman's career and making ever-more draconian legislation. I know which world I prefer...

CJ it has nothing to do with political stupidity. Itt was a one line email ment for one person. In other words its an off the record comment. Not a statement or thought out fact that somebody has put their name too. If she had sent it to the Jew it maybe a different matter.

The facts are that a decent normal Australians has been sacked and lost her job because of loud minorities and do gooders! Long live multiculturalism! Death to mainstream Australia!

Your dogmatism is the fact that you only call me names but don’t put forward a counter argument in an attempt to show me where I am wrong. This is typical of you and of your standard of posting on this forum. Pure name calling and nothing of substance.

CJ Morgan the windbag.

Foxy remember when that bloke who said he was at the woomera detention center said he had tried to commit suicide 5 times (lies or not trying very hard at it and jsut attention grabbing attempt) and started demanding the PM close all the detention centers and throw open the city gates to the hordes so that all manner of things can come into Australia unannounced and at their own accord. The cheer and jeering the pm when he was trying to answer the question was what I was talking about. After him there was a question about why the PM wont scrap John Howard’s NT intervention. With more cheering and jeering from the same group. There were also 1 or 2 other questions with similar antics.

If you did not see this you must have been watching a different show.

Foxy don’t go the way of CJ and vanilla and work off pure dogmatism and clichés. Their credibility is already at 0 yours is still very high

Dear Easy Times,

I have to admit that I didn't see the incident that you're referring to about the bloke from the detention centre so I can't comment on it.

Thank You for your kind words about my credibility.

However as I wrote earlier - we will have to agree to disagree on this discussion.
I try to say things as I see them on this Forum - I'm sorry if you think that my reasoning is somewhat 'dogmatic.' But I can only speak from my experience and perception - and what I feel.

Anyway, I appreciate your comments, and respect your point of view.

1. "In other words its an off the record comment." The questions is not if it is an off record comment but if Susan Chandler believe what see wrote and probably she believes it. If I believe that Greeks are crocks (I am Greek) then I could find million ways to punish them, to damage them, not openly or even not with off the record comment but other ways.
2. In a country with half of its population migrants or part of minorities, this kind of comments are dangerous and could create problems to Australia. Today I wrote in other thread to People Against Live Exports & Intensive Farming
"1. From now and on I do not permit you to change my name from Antonios to Tony. You could use ASymeonakis, Antonios or Symeonakis but do not change my name. If you continue to change my name then VERY-VERY SOON I will bring the issue to race discrimination commission. I MEAN IT." because I want every one to learn to respect the others. FORGET MINORITIES OR NOT, WE HAVE EXACTLY THE SAME RIGHTS.

You are interpreting it wrong Asymeonakis and taking it out of context remember it was a one line email to a “friend” not a hate speech.

I guess I could have started a similar topic about you! Calling people racist because they call you Tony is ridiculous but it is on the same level as calling somebody racist because they write “Greedy f@cking Jew” or point out that Aboriginals have an alcohol or sexual abuse problem. All 3 of these things are small and petty and merely prove that the word racist is not a boring worn out cliché
