irish values vs asian values

AsiaPundit hasn’t commented on the Sydney riots, largely because Australia isn’t a part of Asia. But AP will comment now, if only to defend Irish values.:

Picture 4Most criminals in Australia are from ethnic minority groups, mainly the Irish 25 per cent of the population. This is hardly surprising since these groups send their children to schools which actively encourage crime.

For example, at Irish Catholic schools in Australia they teach: ‘Which is better, for your family to die of starvation, or to steal a loaf of bread? Obviously, to steal a loaf of bread.’

In contrast, at government schools in Singapore, you teach that it is better for your family to die of starvation than to steal anything.

Irish-Australians are behind the push for the introduction of so-called ‘human rights’ into South-east Asia. Asians call these so-called rights ‘Western values’. In fact they are Irish values, and most Australians reject them. The ideas Asean leaders call ‘Asian values’ are supported by the vast majority of Australians.

Most Australians would like to have laws like you have in Singapore, but most of our politicians are Irish. The only area where mainstream Australians would disagree with Singapore policies is that we support trial by jury. Things like the Holocaust and the Gulag Archipelago don’t happen in countries where there is a right to trial by jury.

Our student association would like to see greater involvement between Australia and Asean countries. But Asean governments should make such involvement dependent on Australia phasing out Irish values. Clearly, the idea that Irish values are superior to Chinese values or Malay values or English values is wrong.
