Good morning/afternoon readers,
However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled when the "politically correct" crowd began complaining about the possibility that our patriotism was offending others. I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by coming to Australia.
However, there are a few things that those who have recently come to our country, and apparently some born here, need to understand.
This idea of Australia being a multicultural community has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. As Australians, we have our own culture, our own society, our own language and our own lifestyle.
This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.
We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, Learn the language!
"In God We Trust" is our National Motto. This is not some Christian, right wing, political slogan. We adopted this motto because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you
Consider another part of the world as your new home, Because God is part of our culture.
If the Southern Cross offends you, or you don't like " A Fair Go", then you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet.
We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, And we really don't care how you did things where you came from.
This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this.
But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about who has the right to Our land, Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our National Motto, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you to take advantage of one other great Australian freedom,
"THE RIGHT TO LEAVE"
If you aren't happy here then LEAVE! We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted. Pretty easy really, when you think about it.
I figure if we all keep passing this to our friends (and enemies) it will also, sooner or later get back to the complainers, lets all try, please.
Again, I have posted another copied and pasted email, which I must admit, I do agree a lot with. I'm also of the opinion that a lot of Australians will think similarly. At least the ones I have shared this email with, do agree. I suppose it points out a persons rights. Not only a refugees rights, but, our Australian rights as well. I get angry when I see refugees who have made it good in this coutry, get up and complain about this and that, when in their own country if they complained like they do here, they'd be thrown in prison, killed or suddenly just disappear. I think all refugees need to keep in the back of their mind, that a little gratitude would go a long way.
I'm not a racist person at all. All my friends would vouch for that. I happily make friends of all cultures and race. In fact, I love it. However, I hate the fact that Australia is happy to give up its culture so as to not offend a refugees culture. That is just wrong to me. If you come to Australia, live as an Australian, sure, keep aspects of your culture, that's great, but attempts have to be made to integrate. One ideal example of this is the establishment of specialised schools - eg: Muslim. I'm not picking, but if I went to a predominantly Muslim country and asked to set up an English speaking Christian teaching school, do you think they would allow it - NO WAY. Imagine going to Iran and asking that ? So, given that, why do we allow that in Australia ? Are we being more multi-cultural than the Muslim nations? At the end of the day, these people asked to come to our country. If they are offended that we want them to send their children to Australian public or private schools - they have the right to leave, if they don't like it. What is wrong with that? I'm sick to death of political correctness in Australia. And what's worse, it's rife in our government. We need someone in charge who has the balls - speaking metaphorically - to stop this political correctness crap. Just about all Australians are sick to death of it, oh, except the politically correct ones. Again, please note, I did not write the email below, I am simply the messenger.
Australia- The Right to Leave
Our Country - YOU Have the right - the right to leave !
After Sydney not wanting to offend other cultures by putting up Christmas lights.
After hearing that the State of South Australia changed its opinion and let a Muslim woman have her picture on her driver's license with her face covered.
This prompted this editorial written by an Australian citizen. Published in an Australian newspaper.
Quote:
IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It !
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.
