Well, no - his sign just expresses moronic xenophobia. What he's fearful of is that Muslims will take over Australia and turn it into an Islamic state. How likely is that?
His predecessors were variously worried about Greeks, Italians, Turks, Lebanese, Vietnamese, Cambodian, Chinese etc etc taking over the country and destroying "our way of life". Their misgivings were equally misplaced.
There are some a$$holes about and it is always necessary to sort them out but, hey, someone let Martin Bryant into the country, too.

Not sure where the racism is, no race is mentioned, for that matter, no religion is, either!
all this shit gets so blown out of proportion! and for (mates with) sake does anyone have a sense of humour here anymore?
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!
