If they're immigrants, they're by definition not Australians, so it's a bit redundant calling people with Australian citizenship "proper" Australians.

[LT. COL. John Sheppard]

i mean proper born and raised, red dirt in their blood, beer drinking, footy fanatic Australians not boat people that have a piece of paper saying the are Australians
and also my worst pet peeve is when a Chinese person calls me MATE! i mean come on i just want to hit them

[Goose]

You have to drink beer to be Australian?

Also, isn't it a good thing that the immigrants are putting some effort into learning English?

no thats just a stereotype

yes it is and i respect them for being nice but mate is a saying we earned from sheeding blood, sweat and tears with our ancestors the Brits and when a CHINESE person says mate for me it's like them taking a crap on our flag i mean why can't they say like 'nice weather isn't it?' or 'how are you?'
