Multiculturalism we can't deny it from early settlement of this continent we had representation of a multitude of nations, languages, religions, cultures, races. This has been going on for the past two hundred years and will continue to do so for the next two hundred years. We in Australia always pick on the last arrival group and make them a scapegoat for all problems.

I live in a street which has a representation of many cultures and we all live comfortably together. It is the few who will never manage to cope with any neighbour that create and raise the problems. Maybe if those people were removed it would become a better society.

Having arrived from overseas at a very early age I have experienced rejection by the local population and over many years have become accustomed to avoid the unpleasantness. So too other migrants who arrive here much later in life experience the same and tend to associate primarily with their own culture because they don't feel welcomed by the "locals".

No matter what we say or object to multiculturalism is here to stay.
No matter what name we give it. As one politician famously said
"We must populate or we perish." The English no longer find Australia an attractive destination, afterall we discriminate against them as well.

"So Belly, if you stack-up behind the racist elements, you are naturally branded as one. Its a trueism; Show me your friends, and I'll show you who you really are!"

LOL.....What a classic:) belly with his own course of self-rightfulness, I just love it:)

See just like Jane Goodall pointed out to all of us belly, man is No different to the apes and their behaviors. Only in rear cases did Darwin say that humans crossed the species barrier only when natural circumstances gave the way to the nomatical wanderings. Also belly boy, humans are very territorial just like apes are today, and we all know what happens when large groups of males get together, don't we.

Gang behavior shows this quite clearly. All the man-apes draw their boundaries to the point of over-all understandings, and then and only then is there a peace between the two. Wars between human-apes still goes on today, and just like Jane Goodall pointed out, " while scent marks are continuously violated, the mammals behaviorism's will not be changed by simple law or good-will.

And Aquarius makes the point even more profound by marking his/her territories in the academic realms:) although "We must populate or we perish." is a correct statement to a point, however when is the point of too many?, and as I've put it before " If you puts two rats in a box...they will breed and live in harmony, However, if one puts ten rats in the same box, the out-comes will be has Jane and I have put here and above to read.

Peace equals space......times the availability of resources. When this is up-set, the ape becomes very angry, and proceeds to beat his chest and demands more territories for his troop members to expand.

Oh and by the way........if one was to go around bellies place for a BBQ, all 195 countries of all colours will be there:)

I hope you have brought lots a ice for Eskimos...lol

Like the great apes, we still prefer to live in small groups.

But what happens when there is not enough rain-Forrest for growth?>

WAR!

Just having a bit of funny belly!

S0 don't get all wounded bloke on me please.

We are all MAN, BEAR, PIGS!

And like Aquarius said.....

"No matter what we say or object to multiculturalism is here to stay."

PEACE

QL sorry no harm meant, just honesty, I do not look to you for informed opinion or understanding.
Your views are of little interest and if it was you being spat on while in a police mans uniform [I am not a cop] you may well see, no you would not,, I am afraid giggle away but I think you are way too self confident.,
Sydney siders,not the north shore, see things we once did not , and fear going to some areas.
I find the constant ,childlike, inference any one pointing this out is racist the product of uninformed people at best.

It's quite interesting DIVER DAN, when people are essentially bereft of any practical or realistic arguement, or are simply bankrupt of any superior opinion, they haughtily and disdainfully roll out that good ol'chestnut... 'You're a Racist'

What a wonderful word ! Because an individual asserts or argues a position that's contrary or opposed to you - they can't simply be wrong. Even badly advised. Or, even on the wrong track. No, they have to be a...'RACIST' !

Well DIVER DAN, I'd much rather be the 'RACIST', uneducated, me - than you existing in your finite, sequestered world of theory and academia. At least I'm in touch with reality.

"but I think you are way too self confident. Thats alright belly, I don't think much of you either:) but when it come to the silver-backed-gorilla, I still have all my teeth:) You may have your opinion, I have mine. The Internet is a great source of information, and any new ideas is better than none. You are like a spoiled brat that wants it all your own way, sorry belly....your like the 60% of people that are against the carbon tax......" their old and the future means very little to them.

If belly, you were a confident person, Iam sure more people would listen to you, but your not.
And this just shows how ignorant you really are..."I do not look to you for informed opinion or understanding." belly! people hear me more than they hear you, except for your little online friends here of course:)

Belly! don't talk to me about Sydney mate:) I was once a creature of the night my friend, and I walk safe where ever I go:)

William Wallace would be proud my son:)

Its survival of the fittest where ever you are in this world, and Ive never been a victim in my life....nor will i ever.

You just post what-ever you believe in, and leave others to have theirs.

PEACE
