Paprika's post referred to Australian Defence Force personnel, paramedics and a NSW rural firefighter been caught posting racist and religious slurs.
One NSW rural firefighter hating Muslims doesn't mean all rural Australians hate Muslim refugees.
Rural Australians for Refugees (RAR) began in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales in 2001. They're an informal group of concerned citizens working hard to turn this country away from its inhumane and bizarre asylum seeker policy.
There are over ninety RAR groups across Australia and they're growing stronger. May God speed their heroic efforts to liberate kidnapped children from Labor or Liberal Nazi-like concentration camps.
Once any state assumes Total Power over its captives (be it in Hitler's Germany or Stalin's Russia) to quote an old Ethiopian proverb:
"Evil enters like a needle and it spreads like an oak tree."
If Australians allow the state to have Total Power over the fate of kidnapped and caged refugees (and allow the refugees no say in their fate) that emboldens and does nothing to deter politicians (citing a national emergency) from passing anti-terror laws that give them total power over you and me.
To quote Irish writer George Bernard Shaw: "Patriotism is the last resort of a scoundrel"
America's Patriot Act opens the door to tyranny. Ruddock's anti-terror laws do the same thing.
In the 1930s, Hitler's Gestapo required pastors to submit church sermons for official approval or they'd be put into a detention camp with Jews.
Pastor Noimuller refused to obey the Gestapo and he was put into a concentration camp. Years later, when the Allies liberated the camp, Pastor Noimuller was more dead than alive but he gave his liberators a scarp of paper on which he'd written:
First they came for the Jews, and I did not speak up because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the communists and I did not speak up because I was not a communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak up because I was not a trade unionist.
When they came for me there was nobody left to speak up for me.
A timely warning given the hate campaign against Muslims that is being whipped up by the Murdoch media empire to increase newspaper sales and TV station ratings.
Don't buy the Sydney Telegraph or evil could enter your mind like a needle and infect you.
Like the Gestapo, Gina Rinehart wants to control what Fairfax journalists write. So far the Fairfax Board has not caved in.
There are many war memorials in Canberra but the smallest memorial is about Truth:
