I drive Australian-made cars, and I believe in Australian products and buy them whenever I can. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I believe the money I make belongs to me and not some bloody governmental functionary, Labor\/Greens or Liberal, that wants to share it with others who don&#8217;t work! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I&#8217;m in touch with my feelings and I like it that way! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I think owning a home doesn&#8217;t make you a capitalist; it makes you a smart Australian. I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimized, and does not entitle you to anything. Get over it! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac or any other item, you should do it in English. I believe there should be no other language option. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God when and where they want to. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">My heroes are, fellow Australians like Don Bradman, Steve Waugh, Alan Langer, Slim Dusty, Fred Hollows and the Aussie scientists who invented the bionic ear \u2013 missed a few I know.<br \/>\nI don&#8217;t hate the rich, but hate the way they always find ways to pay less taxes. I don&#8217;t pity the poor, I hate the way they are always crying that they are hard done by!! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I know wrestling is fake and I don&#8217;t waste my time watching or arguing about it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I believe if you don&#8217;t like the way things are here, go back to where you came from and change your own country! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">This is AUSTRALIA&#8230;.We like it the way it is and more so the way it was&#8230;so stop trying to change it to look like some other socialist country! If you were born or legally migrated here and don&#8217;t like it&#8230; you are free to move to any Socialist country that will have you. (And take Julie Gillard and her group with you.) I believe it is time to really clean house, starting with the Lodge, the seat of our biggest problems. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I want to know exactly, where the &#8220;Do Gooder&#8217;s&#8221; get their money from, and why are they always part of the problem and not the solution? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">Can I get an AMEN on that one? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I also think the cops have the right to pull you over if you&#8217;re breaking the law, regardless of what race, color or creed you are, but not just because you happen to be an illegal alien and scream that they are &#8220;RACISTS PIGS&#8221;. And, no, I don&#8217;t mind having my face shown on my driver&#8217;s license. I think it&#8217;s good&#8230;. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I dislike those people standing in the intersections trying to sell me stuff or trying to guilt me into making &#8216;donations&#8217; to their cause&#8230;.Get a job and do your part to support yourself and your family! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I believe that it doesn&#8217;t take all the intellectuals to raise a child, it takes two parents&#8230;. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I believe &#8216;illegal&#8217; is illegal no matter what the lawyers think! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I believe the Australian flag should be the only ones allowed to be flown in Australia ! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">If this makes me a BAD Australian, then yes, I&#8217;m a BAD Australian.

My grandfather watched and bled as his friends died in World Wars 1&amp;2. My grandfather watched as his friends &amp; brothers died in the Depression of 32. My father watched as his friends died in Korea. I watched as my friends died in Vietnam, East Timor &amp; Desert Storm. Our son&#8217;s and daughters watched &amp; bled as their friends died in Afghanistan and Iraq .<br \/>\nNone of them died for the Afghanistan and Iraq Flag. Every Australian died for the Australian flag. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">At a Victorian high school foreign students raised a Middle East flag on a school flag pole. Australian students took it down. Guess who was expelled&#8230;the students who took it down. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">West Australian high school students were sent home, because they wore T-shirts with the Australian flag printed on them. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">Enough is enough. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">This message needs to be viewed by every Australian; and every Australian needs to stand up for Australia.

I&#8217;m taking a stand. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">I&#8217;m standing up because of the hundreds of thousands who died fighting in wars for this country, and for the Australian flag. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">AUSTRALIANS, stop giving away Your RIGHTS ! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">THIS IS OUR COUNTRY ! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">This statement DOES NOT mean I&#8217;m against immigration ! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">YOU ARE WELCOME HERE, IN MY COUNTRY, welcome to come legally: <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;\">1.
