If thats what objecting to baseless claims is - yeah I guess I am.

In case you need reminding, this is the yet-to-be substantiated claim I'm talking about:

Do you refuse to answer the question, FD? Yes or no.

Little point arguing with so called Aussie patriots.

Their dreams are littered with swarthy Muslim men hitting them over the head with oversized halal sausages cooked on the ashes of a burning Aussie flag.

Remember, these are the same people who lament flag burning whilst wiping their sand encrusted ar@eholes with beach towels emblazoned with the sothern cross and the union jack.

When someone's idea of the ideal woman is a racist redhead whose mother took nine months dropping a deuce, logic and rationality becomes moot.

US-style campus chalking campaigns are now occurring in Australia:

One of Australia’s most prestigious universities has condemned vandals who scrawled anti-Muslim messages including “Stop the Mosques” around its Parkville campus today.

The University of Melbourne’s Vice-Chancellor Glyn Davis has decried the offensive chalk slogans, saying they caused distress and were at odds with its diverse and inclusive community.

The graffiti, which also included “Islam is not a race” and “Freedom of Speech”, surfaced this morning at seven sites around the campus, and was quickly removed by maintenance staff …

In a statement on the university’s Facebook page, Prof Davis wrote that the “offensive slogans” were unacceptable.

“While the University community moved quickly to identify and remove offensive messages, they still have caused distress,” he said …

“Such slogans, chalked anonymously and intended to hurt, run counter to the vision of a safe, inclusive, connected and respectful University community, one that embraces diversity.”

Let’s work through these anonymously-chalked “offensive slogans”. Perhaps “Stop the Mosques” is unpleasant, but, then again,so is a campaign by inner-Melbourne leftoids to stop an aged care centre for the disadvantaged and homeless. One Australian Muslim academic recently called for a mosque stoppage himself, preferring greater investment in science and research. “Islam is not a race” is simply a statement of fact. And “Freedom of Speech” ought not be offensive to anyone, or at least anyone who respects freedom of speech.

ESPECIALLY freedom of speech.

Very hurtful. Freedom of speech is a hurtful, racists, far right, fascist concept.

Very hurtful. There should be a law against it.

No, wait - there is....

Trust Gandalf to identify the key issue here....

Apparently I am. Frank here is frothing at the mouth because the university had the hide to want to remove graffiti.

Do you think they should have left it there FD?

As a university academic he would be perfectly aware that anti-Islam sentiments are in no way correctly described as 'racism', and he would be perfectly aware that these graffiti are intended to inform and support our Western heritage - and not hurt, per se.

He would also be aware that if someone like Mark Steyn, Geert Wilders, Tony Abbott, Robert Spencer, Nigel Farage and the like were to be invited to give a talk at the university - all hell would break loose that would require a team of hired security staff to keep the baying Lefty crowds from completely swamping the occasion.

I don't agree with graffiti of any kind, left or right, but it comes to this when those opposed to the Islamisation of Australia and the West are struggling to find a voice in the mainstream media because of political funk and non-discriminatory cowardice.
