If they could go back in time would the pollies still bring middle easterners out here? What a stupid mistake that must be costing Australia millions upon millions of dollars a year. Dummies!!
What is this about , the difference would be that small as to be almost unmeasurable. Why does it all ways come down to this bs about race. Russia is probably the one of the worlds least culturaly diverves courtiers on earth look at crime there. Open minds solve problems closed minded bigotry does not help at all.
So there isn't a problem with middle eastern crime then rubin?
Sparky don't be a loon yes there is but it's just one piece of picture there is a problem with Asian crime white collar crime hate crime , youth crime aboriginal crime the list goes on and on all together it crime committed by criminals if you got rid of all middle eastern crime there is still a huge issue with crime. That's why we can't fix it we keep trying to pin the issue on some small group, but the problem is bigger that that
Yes, there's crime, always has been and no group can claim to be crime-free, agreed
Few years ago, in the mainstream media, they ran a piece about Bob Carr complete with a number of photos as illustration of the thrust of the piece
One of the statements to stick in mind referred to Carr as prepared to jump any time he was invited to a 'middle eastern' wedding, funeral, etc. And the photos illustrated this very well
Explanation given was the fact middle-easterners are very savvy and vote in blocks. The underlying message appeared to be that our politicians are prepared to do deals with voter blocks. And to gain those votes, they are required tit for tat fashion to make concessions in the interests of those who're providing them big chunks of votes
We saw it in the media at the last general election, where social media revealed middle easterners (in that case) were being bussed from place to place in order to vote multiple times. The politician/candidate who revealed that on information provided her by middle-easterners received death threats as result, according to the media
Ok. Rank and file Aussies on the other hand can't agree over politics as revealed by this forum alone. Every man for himself and as a rule, no politician is trusted by anyone but most of us favour one shonk marginally over another
Aussies don't work the political system
Aussies are not tribal
Middle easterners are
It would be naïve to claim the tribal system does not reap dividends when it comes to crime and lots else
A while ago (and it may still be online) an ex-copper ran a blog in which he stated government had made it difficult if not impossible for police and media to report the ethnicity of criminals -- this despite it was known there existed a Middle Eastern Crime division which was kept very active
The average Aussie commits a crime and his photo is in the news, his name is released
Migrant criminals and second/third migrant criminals enjoy protection under legislation
There was an uproar when one or two media sources revealed the gang rapists were ' Of African appearance'. Sydney Morning Herald complied with the edict that
'foreign' and migrant criminals should not be identified, on the other hand
In Victoria, head of police Nixon also skewed crime statistics by insisting police not identify migrant/foreign criminals, even when the crimes were grave. Instead, Victorian police and govt. depts. continued the lie that certain migrants were 'far less involved in crime than the host population'. This did not conform with what the public was personally experiencing. And the public's beliefs were finally confirmed when Victorian police and govt. depts. were forced to concede that the migrant group in question was nine times more likely than the host population to commit crimes, most of them of very violent nature
So what sort of 'equality' is our government intent on creating when certain ethnic groups are provided protections while Aussies are not?
And let's not perpetuate this false 'equality', eh? Because it's no good for the migrant groups concerned (who believe they can get away with blue murder)
or the Aussie host population and their descendants
