I suppose you could look at it in two ways, one in memory of 9/11 and the other glad it happened confuse

As it is mainly being sold in anti US countries I would say the latter...confuse

This is appalling. There are no grounds to be supporting, promoting or celebrating the mass killing of people no matter your beliefs.

Sick yes, but surprising, no. How many times have we seen the slogan "death to all non believers".

Here is hoping that he hasn't got one of those neon 'Welcome to Centrelink' signs on the back of his shirt. Displayed as the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow

Or the other choice, 'Oz - beautiful one day, Shar'ia the next'.

I have had that exact slogan stuck on the back of my Colorado for at least six months.

AND IT'S STAYING THERE!

And, Woolies gutlessness aside, I'd like to find a source for those singlets. They'd sell like hot cakes.

Cheers, Tony

People displaying the "Australia love it or leave it" stickers etc are part of the problem, nothing is achieved other than increasing the divide, as an aside don't be overly surprised if you find your car or whatever vandalised for (no apparent reason)one of these days.

 

As far as the offensive slogan is concerned, nothing new here, rednecks in the US have been using the same hackneyed rubbish for at least 50 years, Merle Haggard even wrote a song containing the line in 1969.nohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHAFmFsb9XM

SANTA WROTE [ in part ] --- People displaying the "Australia love it or leave it" stickers etc are part of the problem,

====================================

I think the divide, comes from people who say it is OK !! hmm 

for some Immigrants/refugees To express opinions and put forward idea's to better the Australian way of life ?? [ in their opinion ]  by pushing for rules and laws to be changed in the Country they Chose to come to, and were well aware of the difference in Religions, Customs, Laws, and Freedom, !! They seem to want to change Australia ? And introduce the very same way of life , and it's associated problems, That made them leave their Homeland in the first place, ?? 

Yet ! those very same people, that say it is OK !! for one side to express their opinions for changes to their Adopted country,  Yet if any of the Older Australians wish to Express their own opinion on the same subject, , Those people say It is Racist, and causes division,

 [ may i add ? check out the heritage of those '' Older''  Australians ] you will find a wide and varid mix of Bloodlines. ?? so Racist ?? NO WAY !!
