1.Notice the mention of the headline and this: "The United Nations refugee agency has warned Australia that its decision to send asylum seekers to Papua New Guinea could breach international law and its human rights obligations."
2. Yep, which means we can't take them back to wherever they came from. They would be persecuted in PNG on account of race and religion.
3. It was to address your point on evidence for stuff. I thought you wanted it.
4. kk
5. Yeah-nah. There's no real difference.

  1. Okay.
  2. If that is the case (it has yet to be proven) resettle them elsewhere.
  3. It's certainly very interesting; I thought the foreign-born population was much smaller but I don't think it proves or disproves the legality of Oz's immigration policy.
  4. Let's just ignore this point and the first point too; we'll have to recur to exponents if we continue. :p
  5. Explain yourself.

Australia: Too hot.
This has been a struggle for my entire life.

Having visited Australia (Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney) I can say the following.

Australian women: Not hot at all.
Australia: A very beautiful country. The weather is similar to that of my country of residence (and very soon country of citizenship) and it wasn't hot or uncomfortable when I visited in the Australian winter.

/generalisations :p

Anything above 65F/18C is getting into the "too hot" range, do not want plz.
