Lexi,

So the number that dies is irrelevant to you?

Europe has many more illegal immigrants, many more deaths, and huge immigrant ghettos, with huge race problems and riots.

What is your point again?

Latest News:

With a 4th boat and now about 266 asylum seekers in the 2 weeks since the signing of the Malaysian solution.

At this rate the "solution" will be dead in the water by mid September.

You know, what I don't get is, that someone posts a comment online under an anonymous alias- yet STILL feels they need to feed everyone a politically correct spin on an issue to avoid people calling them names.

For example- I can admit that my entire problem with all areas of asylum and immigration is the risk of receiving people that are mentally unbalanced, religious fanatics, and generally unlikely to integrate and become anti-social when allowed in.
It is a perfectly legitimate concern, and I don't need to pretend I'm only harboring moral outrage at 'que jumping', 'leaky boats', people smugglers getting paid by refugees for a ferry service, etc.

And some of you wonder why Labor introduced the Malaysian solution in the first place;
Because they LISTEN to what the people want, but the people were too frightened to say what they actually wanted thinking it taboo, and fed them the same rubbish we keep hearing here- and so Labor acts on the supposed desire to merely 'look tough' and to target the 'people smugglers' from 'risking refugees', and we got this policy.

And you people have nobody to blame but yourselves for pussyfooting around the issue and trying to spin it, instead of saying what you wanted them to do.
