Are we opening new legal Pandora box with legalizing gay marriage here?
Soon internet brides both genders could immigrate legally.
Every person could marry anybody overseas and claim right to introduce to this country.
Isn't a bit worry perspective ?
I reckon that, on average, gays are way more tolerant, understanding, open minded and peaceful people than the average straight - homophobic or otherwise. We could probably do worse than have an influx of them.
Your hypothesis has some massive holes in it though, which I won't go into in case I threaten my 'unbiased moderator' status.
It's har not to red-thumb your original post Macroscience when it makes you sound like a bigot.
To counter your arguement, to come to Oz as an illegal gay on a spousal visa doesn't make business sense, not even coming as a straight person of a dodgy spousal visa makes sense.
Option A, the asylum seeker somehow meet a dumb Aussie online or through a third person, form a fake relationship online, or the phone or whatever, after a while convince dumb Aussie to come to your s**-hole of a country for serveral 'holidays' to firm up your back-story, return the gesture by coming to Australia for holidays without Immigration finding you out. At some point marry, apply for a spousal Visa, prove that you are in love and live happily there-after.
Option A. Buy your passage to Indonesia and get on a boat to take you out of the harbour. Disable your motor and call the Australian Navy. Job done.
Homosexuals can live together without interference in their lives in many countries. They can live together effectively as married couples in more countries than they cannot. So why would they choose to come to a country where that relationship is formally recognised by a state that they have had nothing to do with before in their lives? Wouldn't it be of more value to them to have their relationship recognised in their own community with their family and friends? Even if the state doesn't recognise their relationship it doesn't really matter as long as they are are not harrassed in that relationship.
Its unlikely Australia will be overrun by homosexuals from all over the world because they can get married here. Even if it did happen it probably wouldn't be that bad. Its not like they can breed and in 50 years time they outnumber the locals.
I find it funny how people who are immigrants or of an ethnic background can often be the most discriminatory to other immigrants or ethnic peoples.
You're an immigrant yourself mate. Why should it matter what sexual preference you have.
I am still misunderstand here, I am afraid.
The legal loophole create opportunity for the person to import another one without any prove or need to be:
- guy in first place -just to falsely declare such on the immigration papers
Loophole to exploited not by genie couples but impersonators, since there is no real
way to verify the claim.
It seems the IELTS test needs improving.
...I've read that 5 times now, and I still don't know what you're saying.
^ He really thinks what? What's going on in this thread?
\I FEEL LIKE I'M THE ONLY ONHE TAKING CRAZY PILLS!
He's talking about naughty people possibly exploiting a system and using it as a new way of getting (possibly bad) people into the country.
His question has got nothing to do with sexual orientation.
I am surprised. Thank you kiterboy for translation.
That is exactly what's I mean even if I did express this in writing in unintelligible form.
OK Kiterboy try to translate that for me.
Immigration officer that refuse to accept immigrant from high risk country will be automatically liable for discrimination on:
a) race if immigrant is of specific colour
b) religion
c) economic status
d) human rights and sexual orientation
e) gender if by chance immigrant is opposite one
etc.
Then immigrant could send the case to UN against our government agency for discrimination and human right violation.
Soooo... you are saying that an immigration officer would ignore normal security type investigations? Because they are gay?
Or that if they did find plausible evidence you're scared that someone some tree-hugging, transgender, cross-dressing (yes both) hippy fomr the UN would come rushing in from stage left, hands flapping, saying "You can't discriminate against a terrorist if they are gay! Being gay supercedes all security checks!"
