Perhaps if we saw the blood and gore we'd care more?

Parramatta, NSW, Australia. Friday October 2nd, 2015.

It seems appropriate that I should re-emerge in my aging warrior role just several days after a NSW police employee - an administrator - is gunned down, shot in the back of the head execution style, by a young Muslim man aged 15. My preceding post puts this comment in context.

I meditate today about the victim's family - seemingly ignored by politicians and the bureaucracy; but not to worry, before the blood and gore were washed from the pavement, our Prime Minister had engaged with the Muslim community for fear they are concerned about the potential for, arguably understandable, retaliation by an increasingly marginalised majority.

I meditate on the unwillingness of the majority of Australia's journalists to tell the story the way it happened - to simply report the facts.

I meditate on the dangers we face as Muslims increasingly kill and maim people guilty only of being non-Muslims - it used to be in far away countries but now it is happening on Australian suburban streets.

There is occasional talk about appeasement. But the truth is, it seems to me, it is more like cowardice. Those in authority no longer have the moral strength or certainty, or the nationalistic spirit to stand up, and speak up, for our land, and our way of life. And they certainly don't speak for me most of the time.

None of this is going to end well for traditional Caucasian Australians, for Christians, and ironically for the chattering classes that so want this already doomed social experiment to continue - the intelligentsia will be the first to face the sword come the overthrow of our political system and our religious freedoms; if you're a politician, a bureaucrat, a journalist or political commentator, an educator, a doctor, an author, a minister or priest, a gay person, or just somebody Muslims disagree with - like the elderly historian recently killed for protecting historic treasures, you stand a very good chance of sharing the fate of Mr Curtis Cheng, Friday's innocent victim.

Remember if you are a non-Muslim in an Islamic society there are only three options:
- you can become a Muslim - and for later recanting your decision the penalty is death, or
- you can decline to become a Muslim and pay special taxes, and live as a second-class citizen, or
- death.

Isn't it time more people had an opinion, and spoke up for what we thought we once were?
