On 24 September 2014 an 18-year-old man, Numan Haider, was shot and killed by police outside Endeavour Hills police station. Victoria Police Assistant Commissioner Luke Cornelius said Haider had been asked to come to the police station to discuss behaviour "which had been causing some concern". When the man arrived outside the station, he stabbed the two officers as they went to meet him. The two stabbed officers, one from Victoria Police and one from the Australian Federal Police, were working together as part of a joint operation on counter-terrorism between the AFP and Victoria Police.[30] Haider was found to be carrying two knives and an Islamic State flag.[31]

Yeah, so immigration lead to terrorism in Australia.
I am not saying there should be no immigration, but this is what we got with the strictest vetting imaginable, what if we opened our borders?
I also think it is okay to want to preserve an Anglo Saxon way of life in a country, that's not racist.
People enter our countries to enjoy the economic prosperity and freedoms that we enjoy.
If people are fleeing counties that are war torn, corrupt or generally just shit holes... Then you need to be very careful about how you manage immigration or your country will reflect the nation that these people are fleeing.
And yes... That statement is classed as racist these days, but I wonder how many of the people that would label it as such have visited the slums and crime ridden assholes of the world? I have seen enough to know that while I am happy to import people, I don't want to import this sort of nasty element.
