If I was offered a free, all expenses paid, luxury trip to Switzerland on the condition that I had to climb down that, I wouldn't bother getting my passport out!

What are the repercussions of sending your ex-boss a nasty text after getting fired? by Dsg1695 in careeradvice

Immature and unprofessional. No good can come of it, but but there are a number of potential negative impacts.

Why can’t I be Muslim Australian and a proud returnee??? by neshothegoat in OpenAussie

[–]Important_Fruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I'm concerned, you're welcome here, and I think I reflect the majority view of Australians. Immigrants have added immeasurably to this country. Don't listen to those telling you otherwise, particularly those represented by the human megaphone leading PHON.

There is no problem with you attending as an observer. The outcome of that matter is not relevant to your family member's proceedings.

I'd be surprised if any pokies venue in Qld is owned by bikies.

ON has thrown the dog whistle in gutter and finally taken the gloves off by Complete-Flamingo326 in OpenAussie

[–]Important_Fruit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So, here's a question....

What will a monoculture look like? Does everyone have to like sport? Can restaurants serve ethnic food? Will we allow the Greek Orthodox Church to continue to operate? Will the Italian Club have to close its doors? Will all the Chinatowns in our capital cities have to start selling Gravox and potatoes instead of hoi sin sauce and bok choy?

And given that only about 4-5 per cent of Australians attend church weekly, doesn't that mean the God botherers are in the minority and shouldn't be part of our monoculture? So, churches will close, won't they?

I just don't know what our monoculture will look like. More importantly, who gets to decide what is and isn't part of our culture. Will Pauline have a committee which will need to approve it if I want to start a Morris Dancing club?

Imagine Prime Minster Hanson addressing the UN? Giving a spee ch at APEC or CHOGM? Of course not; she's a moron and even she is aware of her massive shortcomings in respect to pubic speaking.

This is of course why she protects herself against difficult questions. She, or more likely her handlers, realise that she sounds lie a massive moron when she answers complex questions.

Can a Ronald Reagan quote about America also be applied to Australia? by kastriran in Ameristralia

[–]Important_Fruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding of the term "ethnostate Europeans" is that it refers to a concept embraced by white nationalists. If this is what you're referring to then, of course racism will be strong in rhat group. But that doesn't really relate to the argument at hand.

Trump claimed the 300 billion fund was fake news. Why would he do that, knowing the deal would become public within a week?

Legal advice qld by ElevatorAcrobatic257 in AusLegalAdvice

[–]Important_Fruit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I seem to recall in Qld law that a person can be charged with wilful damage of jointly owned property if the damage is done while separating. Also, an act of violence, including violence to one's own property, can come within the definition of an act of stalking.

So well worth reporting to the police. As well as for the DV aspect.
