		<description>Saipan said
&lt;blockquote&gt;Hilaly just needs to shut up, stop talking to any media and retire from all positions in the community.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

...or alternatively, he needs to say &lt;i&gt;more&lt;/i&gt; - like, every day he should pontificate on all manner of topics which he is completely unqualified to talk about.

The more he says, the more the community will ge used to it until is becomes merely boring, trivial and irrelevant.

Note that the various nutcases on 2GB and 2UE have been making all manner of racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, paranoid and delusional statements every single day for years. Sure, they are offensive, but it has also become part of the great discursive doormat we now merely wipe our feet on without thinking.</description>

		<description>Australian Muslim you don&#039;t do a very good impression of an Australian Muslim.  If you knew the first thing about our laws you would know that we just don&#039;t deport people for saying things we don&#039;t like.  

Hilaly just needs to shut up, stop talking to any media and retire from all positions in the community.  At best, he&#039;s seriously damaged goods.</description>

		<description>This is just disgusting. It&#039;s about time the muslim community stood up and got this mufti out of his position. No one should have to put up with these comments, not the muslims or the non muslims. He has caused enough harm to the australian community, &quot;enough is enough&quot;. He has no morals or values and doesn&#039;t understand the role of being a leader. Everytime he makes these stupid and ugly comments he expects the muslim community and the australian community to put up with it and forgive him. We&#039;ll i believe that this should be his last because he should be taken out of his position and kicked out of australia. &quot;Australia and muslims don&#039;t need someone like him&quot;. And just a question for Kaysar Trad, how much does Hilaly pay you to defend him? will you ever admit that he is wrong, that he should be out?</description>

		<description>To be honest I was suspicious as to whether the translation on some of those comments was correct because I had trouble believing that an educated person would say such things.

Yes the convict jibe means nothing to aussies like me.</description>

		<description>On the plus side, the convict jibe will just make Aussies laugh. I mean, that&#039;s all the Barmy Army do at the cricket!

Seriously though, what a dipstick. You guys must want to pick up a corner of the carpet and crawl underneath evertime this dill opens his trap.</description>
