Sorry but who the refugees running from..??

isn't it ISIS they are fleeing from..??

Abbott certainly is a scoundrel with his "they're coming to get us all" routine.

Abbott getting more embarrassing by the minute...

The refugees from that region we should be taking are not Muslims.

You'd wonder wouldn't you but many of them don't see any problem migrating to a secular democracy then complaining about most things secular and democratic.

and that right there is what s h i tz most people off, the stupid thing for me is that the religion calls for complete faith, no where does it say it's okay to mingle and party on down with the Christians, Hindi's jews and atheists, yet most will willingly break their own religious rules that so they can live under secular roof, but quietly complain that it's not right, so not are they only being unfaithful to their religion, but they are hypocrites to boot.
