I'd like to think most Heterosexuals who have sex understand the various methods available to offer more chance of avoiding pregnancy if the will is there.

We can renationalise making happy families in a camp anyway we want, I'm sure I am not 100% right about all pregnancies but I am also damn sure you're not either.

Yep, this is about the level of debate on this issue under Abbott.

Why do you reckon there's kids born in Africa in war and famine torn countries?

No TV, No Drugs, no alcohol, bugger all food, no money, no dance clubs so WTF you gonna do to feel good? Have a root.

Whether you end up procreating in those circumstances is generally a few levels down the stage of what they're worrying about at the time.

Honestly some of the ignorance and regurgitation of mainstream media opinion served as fact is well gobsmacking and disheartening Sad

How many of you have been to any of the countries that people are fleeing from?

How of you many have spent any time ( and I don't mean Phuket resorts) in the Asian countries that people that have landed in and from which they board boats to Australia? Do you know why people don't opt stay in these places that on the whole are not signatories to the UN convention?

How many of you have ever stepped foot in let alone experienced life in an asylum camp?

How many of you have ever stepped inside a detention centre, met, or cared for refugees seeking asylum?

If you answer no to the above how can you be so sure that they are " wealthy entitled looking to take advantage of our welfare system" ?

And now some suggest that should not partake in sex and that this is a negative trait and we don't want this type here and imply that it is done for ulterior motives - really- FMD Shocked

Oh and Stui you are wrong - drugs and alcohol and weapons are unfortunately readily available in war torn and famine areas in Africa and many many of the children born are as a result of rape.

Yeah, no argument there. I was sort of angling at the refugees camp scenario with what I was posting and pitching at the voluntary.

Refreshing to see some Christian behaviour from self-proclaimed Christians for a change:

Australia, a light unto the nations of the world Laughing

With friends like these who needs enemies Laughing

Couldn't of happened to a nicer Mad Misogynist Monk

"In an article comparing North African asylum seekers to "cockroaches", The Sun columnist Katie Hopkins praises Australians for being like British people but with "balls of steel, can-do brains, tiny hearts and whacking great gunships".

Make no mistake, these migrants are like cockroaches

Hopkins argues that European countries should adopt the Abbott government's turn-back-the-boats policy - an approach she calls an "Aussie version of sharia stoning".....
