There’s No Room For Child Marriage In Australia

Arranged marriages are, by definition, marriage unions that don’t take account of the wishes of the people who are to be married. That is why they are “arranged”.
“..Child marriages were common in 7th century Arabia and the practice was adopted by the Koran. But why has it been allowed to continue in 21st century western countries like Australia?
It is one thing to arrange a marriage between people who are legally old enough to get married — that is, who are at least 18 years of age..”

Andrew Bolt Unleashed — Hanson Not The Cause But The Consequence

It is farcical to suggest that the media and the political class has not done its best (actually worst) to make Islam seem safer than it actually is.

Free Speech Inimical to The Left __ Janet Albrechtsen, The Australian

The same politics of deriding deplorables is endemic in Australia, especially in the same-sex marriage debate. The Greens and LGBTI activists claim that allowing Australians to decide whether marriage should be redefined would fuel harmful hate speech from same-sex marriage opponents. Worse, the leaders of Australia’s alternative government succumbed to the lowest of low-rent politics. A plebiscite would lead to suicides, Bill Shorten said. Deputy leader Tanya Plibersek used a young boy named Eddie, the son of a same-sex couple, for political purposes. The aim is clear: shut down debate about same-sex marriage. Agree or shut up is the staple of neo-fascists. Never mind that we are debating an institution, not the sexuality of individuals.
Was Julia Gillard a homophobe when she opposed same-sex marriage? Was Penny Wong a homophobe when she opposed same-sex marriage? Of course not. The reality is, if people who opposed same-sex marriage then are not homophobes, then they are not homophobes now.
