They haven't stopped and offshore detention is costing us billions.

Who restarted the boats after Howard stopped them? That's right - Kevin Rudd. We went from spending less than $100m a year to more than $2bn a year on this thanks to Rudd and Bowen and their utter incompetence.

Nobody here is supporting the asylum seeker/refugee policies of the Rudd Government.

Both parties should be utterly ashamed.

The bottom line is, though, the boats (and drownings) have not stopped.

Pretending otherwise is quite simply ridiculous.

Boat arrivals HAVE stopped and the drownings in our area have as well. Pretending otherwise is quite ridiculous.

Yes, I realise that you have no problem with children drowning in other parts of the world. This has already been established.

Bottom line: the boats (and drownings) have not stopped.

'other part of the world'.

Do you want to extrapolate this faulty line of thinking to our gun-death rate? After all, we have a massive problem with gun violence. It just isnt happenning in our own borders or nearby, but that's no excuse right? All the gun deaths in USA, South Africa and Brazil... all our fault, right?

What faulty line of thinking?

You have no problem with children drowning in other parts of the world. Fact.

Neither have the school shootings, the race riots and the beheadings.

Nor have the satellite launches.

You make the stupidest arguments.

What have they got to do with asylum seekers and refugees trying to reach safe countries?

You're not making any sense.
