This is showing ignorance for the topic. Its not a hand-full of refugees/asylum seekers showing up; there’s 1,000 of them that are costing the Australian payers $100’s of millions to house and process.

Not to mention that 80% of refugees/asylum seekers are still on welfare benefits after 5 years.  So what is that additionally costing the Aussie tax payers in welfare and Department of Housing properties?

Firstly, there fella, I wasn't taking a moral stand regarding the character or plight of people arriving by boat. My point from the start was and is that there is no offence under Australian law that criminalises the act of arriving in Australia or the seeking of asylum without a valid visa.

As for white trash, I believe that most if not nearly all Australians who are hysterical about 'boat people' are from an Australian underclass and are probably the progeny or cultural inheritors of those near 10% who voted NO in the 67 Referendum. These people are our white trash whose common goal (as it is with all underclass) is to inflict suffering on a people they consider (or want established as) an underclass lower than their own. They are likely under-educated and/or culturally, ethically and morally bankrupt who are most visible on Australia (Abuse-an-Immigrant) Day.

A common tactic of the 10%... Deflect their hysteria about people arriving in Australia by boat towards "concern" for the welfare of asylum seekers' kids.

Its the "We're fighting in Afghanistan to save women from oppression" tactic

Mmmm, better to wait till it becomes a flood before acting eh.
How very very Labor of you, Juliar would be proud.
Because that is what Greece has done, and now it's too late for them to act because the 2200 are fronting up every week of the year irrespective of the fact the country is broken under the weight of government debt.
And in Australia, whether it's a trickle or a flood, using criminals to smuggle someone across our border isn't something the government needs to sponsor via weak and ineffective border protection laws.
Because this trickle is now costing the nation billions each year.
Perhaps a few more boatloads being smashed to pieces on the rocks being shown on live TV coverage, or mysteriously disappearing at sea with all lost might give pause eh.

Congratulations, you are wrong.
The boats are eventually destroyed, and the crew spend 2 or so years at her majesties pleasure in Darwin prison.
Whether it's drugs or people, it doesn't matter.
Smuggling is a crime.
This isn't just skippering a boat to Australia, the passengers are being charged $10K each with some of the crew coming back on their second voyage simply because the sentence the courts hand out is nowhere near the maximum allowable.
And the cost being charged per person takes into account the crew will be out of action for 2+ years at a time.

Unbelievable buzz, no doubt all done at taxpayers expense.

You have a problem understanding what a question is?
I was asking questions not making a statement, therefore I am not wrong, but you are because you failed  to see the questions marks.
