MY COUNTRY - AUSTRALIA
I have no idea who the author is - all I know is, if sanity
doesn't soon prevail,
my Country will no longer be......................Australian
The 'political correctness' that is 'sweeping the world' needs
to be stopped.
After Sydney not wanting to offend other cultures by putting up Xmas
lights.
After hearing that the State of South Australia changed its opinion and
let a Muslim woman have her picture on her driver's license with her face
covered.
This prompted this editorial written by an Australian citizen.
Published in an Australian newspaper.
Quote:
IMMIGRANTS,
NOT AUSTRALIANS,
MUST ADAPT.
Take It Or Leave It !
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some
individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we have
experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.
However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled when the
'politically correct' crowd began complaining about the possibility that our
patriotism was offending others. I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a
grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by coming to Australia ..
However, there are a few things that those who have recently come to
our country, and apparently some born here, need to understand.
This idea of Australia being a multicultural community has served only
to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. As Australians, we have
our own culture, our own society, our own language and our own lifestyle.
This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials
and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.
We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese,
Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part
of our society, Learn the language!
'In God We Trust' is our National Motto. This is not some Christian,
right wing, political slogan. We adopted this motto because Christian men and
women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly
documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our
schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the
world as your new home,
Because God is part of our culture.
If the Southern Cross offends you, or you don't like ' A Fair Go',
then you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet.
We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, And we
really don't care how you did things where you came from.
This! is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow
you every opportunity to enjoy all this.
But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag,
Our Pledge, Our National Motto, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage
you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom,
'THE
RIGHT TO LEAVE'
If you aren't happy here then leave! We didn't force you to come
here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.
