No child should be wandering the streets late at night, particularly someone under 10 or 12.


Why not? Because the streets are too dangerous for the child, or the child is too dangerous for the streets? This is like saying women should not be allowed out at night in case they get raped.


Queensland personified?
FD, sometimes I think you are Queensland personified. With due respect.

WHen you  stumble of some notion remotely associated with 'personal freedom' you go completely bonkers. Aboriginal kids roaming freely at night are bad news. Bad for everyone who crosses their paths and bad for them, these juveniles, because early criminality is an easy way to a ruined life.
ARe you going to argue with that on some po-faced civil liberty angle?

Soren, I stuffed up my last post. I meant to question the term "Queensland personified".
