‘morning SPQR,

It’s interesting that the PC Left try to blame our lack of “tolerance” as the cause of our woes, when in fact it’s Australian tolerance and acceptance of multiculturism that has offered migrants safe haven, a fresh start, public financial support, education and security. So how can our lack of tolerance be the cause? It’s the exact opposite.

I wonder if this glaring hypocrisy will be debated or dismissed with a 360 degree head spin?

The three protagonists are just warming up, Islam, the PC Left and the increasingly concerned public. In order to avoid this debate or even recognize it, the PC Left will either close it down, avoid it or to try to break it down into ever more complex elements in order to find some good bits (excuses, historic diversion or mitigation).

(Excellent Craig, we are impressed with your “research” into a 2,600 year old piece of history? What was it I said about “deconstruction and relativism”. Hey look everyone, another Unicorn. I bet you can find millions more historical diversions on Google?).

All they can offer is an intellectualized perspective from the high moral ground to slap down the bogans, racists, bigots and the Islamaphobics that dare to try to discuss what they wish to avoid. Which nicely identifies them as part of the problem.

I suggested earlier that “The PC left are even more acutely aware of the threat than the rest of society”.

This because the PC Left are fully aware that if the debate is allowed to follow just the building tensions between the three main players, the public will inevitably come to realize that in spite of Australian “tolerance” which is now being thrown back in our faces, it is the PC Left do nothing policies of appeasement that has both enabled and continues to sustain the problem they have created.

Craig and Co have reached rock bottom and we should encourage them to keep digging.

Oops, he beat me to it. Onya Craig.

Oh look SPQR, you've got another anonymous internet troll on your side.

You must be so proud...

Well it's interesting that Hizb ut Tahrir can put 800-1000 people on the street in Lakemba and Reclaim Australia can muster five in Penrith...that's five people in total, not five hundred.
As for the "far right" I think both of them are still on remand after a brawl with a group of Lebanese back in December.

Glad that you noticed, Craig, and anonymous I is and anonymous I'll stay. I am Is Mise.

I don't blame you for remaining anonymous, Is Mise...

Dear Banjo,

If you believe in freedom of speech then surely you
also believe in the right of people to express
that freedom by way of protesting about something
they feel is important to them. Effective free speech
is crucial for a democracy. And true believers of any
religion feel particularly strongly about their faith
and what's sacred to them. There were huge demonstration
against the art work "Piss-Christ," not only in this
country but around the globe. People even vandalised the
art-work. Feelings were very strong. Cardinal Pell
wanted the art work banned and the religious fury was very
strong against the painting. Trials and a court case were
even involved:
