    We've given them more than enough here.
    In suburbs with high muslim population pork products are banned.
    My friend lives in one of these areas and one night we went to the KFC, I asked for a bbq chicken bacon burger. The dude taking my order says to me that we don't sell that here.
    I ask why.
    Then he gives me this bullshit how because it is a muslim area they cannot sell it.
    I told him this is Australia why do I now have to drive km's to the next area to get what I want.
    Fuck off back to your own country if you don't like how we live.
    What, they want more?

    News in todays paper....

    Almost everything we buy in our supermarkets is Halal.
    Why the fuck should I have to eat Halal, I want non-Halal options.
    Eating Halal is against my Catholic faith.

    I wonder if Jesus would be as upset about not getting a BBQ Bacon Burger as you are...

    yep no shrimp on the barbie for him either.

    Mr Abraham, so you wouldn't be pissed off if this happened where you live?
    Migrants should respect the laws and ways of life of the country they choose to live in.
    My parents came to Australia 40 years ago along with many others from Europe, they did not complain and make the government change things for them. Why can't these people do the same. It makes me upset :x

    jesus was jewish, no bacon for him at all...even after walking in the desert for 40 days, let alone driving kms....

    people really need to chill out. if you go to a 7-11 and the slurpee machine is out of order, are you gonna complain about it or if you really want a slurpee go 3 miles down the road to the next 7-11 and get a slurpee...jeez... god forbid we never ever get inconvenienced or anything... :roll:

    thoughts_arrive, why not move to an area where bacon is sold? they have just as much right to not sell pork products as you do to shop somewhere else...you are a consumer. you vote with your money.

    My friend lives in that area not me, re-read my post ;)
    My area if fine, we have a lot of Vietnamese here, no chance of Halal and no pork being enforced in my area thank heavens.

    They have rights to not sell pork? What country do they live in?
    They migrated here so they should accept our way of life, how do you think the people that have been living in these areas for longer than these migrants feel? They were born here and now all of a sudden because some group complains it fucks things up for them. Imagine that, oh I want to host a BBQ, let me go to the butcher around the corner from my home for some pork cutlets, oh no they cannot sell it, shit that means I have to drive a bit to the next area which is about 3 suburbs away.

    i can tell you i get mightily pissed off if the squishee machine isnt working. its the only reason i go to 7-11. is it too much to ask they keep their machines in tip top working order just in case i rock up wanting one? ;)8-)

    suck it up princess. so what you have to drive a few kilometres to get what you want. i sometimes have to do that via public transport cause my local supermarket doesnt stock what i want for dinner. its a minor inconvenience and i dont chuck a tanty because of it. i just get on with it cause you know what??? there are worse things in the world.

    so....in america we have to drive other places to get things we want. you can look at it as an inconvenience or you can look at it as just another part of your day. up to you.

    i am glad i live in an area of multiculturalism. i feel that i am much more well rounded of a person having interacted with people here from other countries that have customs different from my own. i have a family that moved here from mexico 4 years ago and they still observe customs native to their homeland. it doesn't bother me to sit in my back yard and hear their mexican music when they have parties. i find it rather interesting. in my opinion to each their own. the world is a big place and there is room for all cultures.

    Having read both the above posts I will not bother anymore.
    No use banging heads with the left wingers it just gives you headaches.

    catefrances, no wonder Australia is turning into shit, people here are too soft and change things for the minority.
    I assume you are a Greens voter?

    :? so multiculturalism is a problem for you?

    why?

    what do you have against other cultures being near you?

    are you sure that it is just because you can't buy a bacon cheddar burger?

    Where did I say I have a problem with multiculturalism?
    I am a son of migrants myself, so why would I be against it?!
    What I have a problem with is people coming into Australia and demanding we change laws for them.
    I have no problem with multiculturalism if migrants can accept our way of life and fit in.

    I am using the burger thing as an example!
    If they don't want to eat pork that is fine, but don't ban it for the majority!

    you assume incorrectly... which doesnt surprise me.

    I hope Sharia Law is applied where you live and you are made to wear a burqa.
    Maybe then you won't be so 'tolerant'.

    why don't you read your own posts and try to deduce why people like me read your words and take away the message that we do?

    you complain that people come to your country and expect the laws to be changed for them. do you not vote in australia? does a majority not win? does the majority in power in your government not set the agenda?

    i just don't get why you are getting so defensive when all i am saying is if the guy doesn't want to sell you a slice of bacon, instead of complaining that your country is going to hell, why not just go to a restaurant that will stock and sell bacon?

    the world is an ever changing place. cultures evolve. why does it matter if a minority, ethnic, religious, or otherwise wants to observe the tenets of their religion?

    but back on topic.....
    does anyone on here really believe that sharia law will be implemented anywhere in the united states? honestly??

    I wouldn't call it a comeback catefrances and it wasn't intended as one. :roll:
    You seem to be very tolerant and happy to have to change the way you live to suit those that have just arrived in Australia hence my post, how far will you go before it pisses you off? That was my point.

    No elections are held over Islamic issues here, our stupid soft government change rules without the peoples okay.
    I wish they had balls like the French government.
    I am sure the majority of Australia would vote against changing how we live to suit Islam.


    You say the world changes, no other religious group tries to change things to suit them other than the muslims. Every country they migrate to they complain that it is not Islam friendly.
