vermav, you have written a constructive and intelligent post; well done.
gollum, aren't you being racist by saying "Stop all islamic immigration unless the immigrant is willing to assimilate fully and not change the country into another islamic state" or are you xenophobic? I'd say both.
What does "assimilate fully" mean in your mind?
To assimilate means to be similar; similar to what? you? If so, what for after reading your remarks which don't stand to reason.
"and not change the country into another islamic state" That will never happen because Australia is a multi ethnic country whose population consists of people of many cultures who immigrated from many war torn, impoverished, politically unstable countries to live a free and harmonious life to prosper.
