Should Australia accept asylum-seeking boat immigrants?

No, instead of turning back the boats - we should be escorting people back to the point of departure, and ensure that we do so in accordance with international law. Offshore processing is the only humane alternative to prevent enticing people to make the perilous journey. For those afraid of terrorists- they should know that the overwhelming majority of fanatics are from wealthy middle & upper classes, and who come by plane.

These queue jumpers have to be taught a lesson, come by boat and you never ever are accepted as an immigrant

Only families who are not Sunni Islam followers and who come from countries where we have no embassy. We should process our own refugees in a special isolated community (not fenced) but those to be processed must wear a id tracking band and stay in the refugee town. Anyone removing the band before being accepted will face instant deportation. Refugees must be processed within a 1 year time frame. Must have a mental, health, and attitude assessment before being accepted. Those with negative/violent points of views of Australia and its citicens (both male and female)must not be accepted.

While awaiting assessment, refugees can be taught English reading and writing skills (English to be encouraged to be spoken in the refugee township) to be taught to all, and children to be taught Australian schooling. Those suitable for Australian resettlement should be assessed to see what interests and abilities they have for further training in a qualified skill to assist in employment.

Target practice for the RAN

Yes, they need to enter into a 6 year program of 2 years of counselling culture/language education, 1 year of training into a job and 3 years working for community services like work for the dole. Give back to the community if they are not working.

immigrants add to our already growing housing crisis, we should let immigrants stay in our country but only if we have the facuties to facilitate them

Yes, but should be put to work instead of just getting a free pass in.
