Has anyone wondered how the most recent (Chinese) protesters managed to get up onto the roof so soon after the previous group (Tamil & Iraqi)?
Do any of the Villawood staff actually supervise these people? Do they even try to stop further protests? The security is a joke!
Perhaps there's a set of steps to the roof with red carpet and a big sign that says "roof protest = media attention = visa" etc?
I agree it shouldn't take so bloody long to process these peoples' claims, but that said they shouldn't be allowed to hold the country to ransom with the left-wing media actively encouraging them. And if it's been decided to deport them, then get the hell out!
Just my 2¢ anyway, what do y'all think?
Bah just ignore them and leave them on the roof. If they threaten to jump then egg them on, if they are dead then they have no need for a visa.

Only thing is some lawyer representing their family (notice how they always have family either with them or already here) is likely to sue the govt for a few million. They'd probably win too as all judges are left-wing bleeding hearts on huge salaries paying bugger all tax.
Meh I would rather 1 lawsuit now and no more from that person, then the myriad of lawsuits about unfairness, blah, blah, when they get let in.

Ah, illegal refugee compensation claims, now this, this government is costing us big time. All this money wasted on people that should be sent back should be spent on those in this country who cannot afford to live and are living on the street.

Meh, let them jump.
The stupid government will need the room considering they won't stop the boats coming anyway.

Do a flip!
We had a protest not days ago and they go their own way and their refugee status is being looking at by the UN. 2 days later the this Chinese group have realised "Hey! If i climb on the roof and yell, I get what I want!". How the #### do they get on the roof?
We dont negotiate with terrorists , we do our best to ensure the security of our country ......
Why then , do we allow a bunch of people threatening to jump off a roof/building/boat(et all) to dictate our policy and make demands on our government .
The crap these people pull absoloutely astounds me , if our country and ways are so damn horrible , go back to your war torn country and eat a bullet . Harsh ? maybe . Justified ? Absoloutely ....
Most Australian Citizens , are doing it tough at the moment , in the face of a global turn down in finances , work sustainability , and general living ... Yet these people are fed 3 times a day , are clothed , cared for medically and mentally if need be , have a roof over their heads , and when they do get to the outside world , are afforded every oppurtunity possible ... and yet they climb on the roof to claim how hard it is , and make demands against the threat of self harm .
I would give them a ticket back to which ever hell hole they came from , a bullet proof vest , a mars bar and wish em the best of luck .
Ungratefull bastards .....
**waits for burn notice**
Personally i say either GTF off the roof or i'll send to back to where you came from.

What about the buggers claiming they dont get enough internet access,their tv's are to small,wrong brand of cigarettes etc. wtf?? they come here with nothing & expect everything.......for FREE!? Fair enough their are some genuine people who have no real alternative but Australia is making it to easy & even advertising the fact by sticking it on the news all the time that we have "special" facilities to help them,that we will bow down to them because of certain sanctions & legislations written by people who dont have to deal with the problem. As soon as we stop taking in all the ragamuffins & ratbags the boats will stop,maybe not completely but less than it is now because the organizers of the boats will see,ok Australia dont work no more lets go somewhere else,maybe.
A pessimist is a man who thinks all woman are bad. An optimist is a man who hopes they are
if someone is kind enough to shout me a ticket to australia i will gladly help them off the roof. please note that i also give free flying instructions (although i'm still having trouble hard landings)![]()

This sort of crap is so annoying.
If the want to jump, let them, I can guarantee none of them will jump.
And really, are these the kind of people we want to let into the country? So far all we know about them is they arrived illegally and now they are trying to force us to give them visa's?
Any sort of crap like this should result in immediate deportation.
Problem solved.
lol let them jump, or push the ####ers. I hope we get the nice hot weekend as forecasted, they won't last 5 mins on a roof when the sun comes out![]()

Lemmings for the Win !!!
I know of one that did jump.
I went to school with a Fijian kid. His uncle was caught up in this and jumped off the roof and they let him die once he hit the ground. From what i've heard he lay there for 5hrs.
I'm not sure of the circumstances surrounding him being there though.
there is a very very simple answer to this .............we have a navy that could use some practice blowing things up ..............that would stop protests at the detention centre !

, have a roof over their heads

maybe that is why they are protesting ON the roof !
Do we care how? Hose the bastards with high pressure hoses and see how many more go up there.
It's bad enough we let the queue jumpers in, now you want them baby sat as well as fed and housed? The only security that is a joke is the border patrols that let them in.
They shouldn't be processed at all. We need to look after Australian citizens in need over these unwanted intruders. Use the money the Government throws to these people on reducing the waiting list for Australians who have health issues.
