I think that in AUSTALIA as in most other western countries, Santa says HO, HO, HO....... if new arrivals to our shores have a problem with that, they should have purchased a "return" ticket. Likewise, should our elected representatives not be aware of and support that attitude by their constituents, they should start considering career options for when their term as a PUBLIC SERVANT ends.

Its time the (so far) silent majority started demanding THEIR rights.

Crikey !

I am just sick to death of so many people doing anything and everything on both sides of the law to get here....... only to start whining, complaining and trying to make our country just like the hell-hole they ran away from. I am married to a Thai lady and both she and her daughter are "over the moon" to be living in Australia. They observe their own culture but just love everything "Australian". They are Buddhist and have a shrine in the home and pray and make offerings every day.

They also admire our churches and enjoy the cultural differences they see every day. They dont want to change Australia and they are keen to be accepted and make their lives here. Christmas is their favourite time of the year and they love the lights, decorations and singing "Christmas Carols". Regardless of race, creed or colour, these are the type of people I would like to welcome to our shores.

That HO Ho thing has been rule for quite a while now and bloody ridiculous it is too--I myself never knew that a "Ho" was a Prostitute! In my opinion the Ho that Father Xmas says does NOT relate to that in any way--Like I have said b4--if you don't like it LEAVE--and don't let the door hit you on the way out.



kfchugo your family sound like the type we need to have here--good to have their own culture and good to know they respect ours at the the same time.
