We've got about 4 threads at the moment that are based in race hate and religious vilification. I think most of the posters on this subject should go back to their Stormfront white power site.

I see a thread where Doggie quotes a media article, albeit inflammatory as the media tend to be.
Yes, there is some anti Muslim sentiment from soem posters, but.....
in that article, we see a court decision that essentially states all Australians, Muslim or otherwise are treated equally. That must be refereshing for you, and the total antithesis of racism.
Yes?
If you don't like it don't read them. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and if it is truly wrong the moderators will sort it out.
Yeah, what's wrong with celebrities. My favorites are those C and D grade ones - you know, the ones that you vaguely remember from years ago, that will eat maggots and stuff just to get on TV.
Loggy you are getting hits in this thread waaay much faster than any of the right wing bigot narrow minded redneck nazi white supremacist KKK one nation racist shallow hateful threads.
That's nice.
Being honest and conducting an open conversation on the different views of different people is not being racist!
I am sick of people saying that others are racist if they speak badly of someone who is not of their own race. A d*ckhead is a d*ckhead wether they are Christian, Muslim, black, white, asian, hispanic or aboriginal. If I say that the d*ckhead was black does not mean that I am a racist, it means that I am being descriptive. "for goodness sake, don't say the d*ckhead was a redhead... That's racist against gingers!"
A racist is someone who judges other based on their race. It is not racist to say that there are differences in beliefs between different cultures. It is not racist to say that I do not agree with these beliefs.
Everyone is so concerned about being politically correct that they do not stand up for what they believe for fear of being labeled a racist.
By the way, I am completely against people who a genuinely racist and trust me that you will hear the difference between a genuine racist and what is discussed in these forums. Some of the people you call racist have simply been misinformed and disagree with the position they believe to be perpetrated!
Luckily, in our culture, you are entitled to your own opinion so I won't say that you are wrong and for the like, neither am I as this is a difference of opinion and not a black and white (no pun intended) argument.
I dont think Im racist, I expect a fair go far all. At my work we have all walks of life here and we generally dont have any race problems at all. The guy from the Philippines pisses me off a bit but that a personality thing not a race thing.
I have a bigger problem with dumb Aussies who think I should be able to read their fricken minds and that are so pigheaded I just want to...................... [}:)]
