But why doesn't the Victorian Govt just get to the root cause of this violence and ban blacks? Or Sudanese to be more precise.

Quote:

A man from Melbourne's Sudanese community who claims to have survived a machete attack believes gang violence has worsened because Victorian authorities have been too "politically correct".

"Let's stop being politically correct and call it for what it is because we have issues within our community," Sudanese-born Nelly Yoa said.

"It's just going to get worse and worse and at the end of the day it's going to come back and bite us."

It seems they are illegal now?

Still we don't know if everyone with a carving knife in their kitchen,
over 20cm or 8" long is breaking the law now?
I suppose people will be using bench grinders to shorten them down
rather than put them in an amnesty box or throw them away?

Northland shopping centre in Melbourne was locked down on Sunday as Victoria police responded to reports of 'two rival groups' fighting each other with knives. A 16-year-old boy and a 15-year-old boy, allegedly the 'primary offenders', were arrested at the scene. Both have since been charged with affray, intentionally causing injury and possession and use of a controlled weapon. They were remanded to appear at the children’s court. A 20-year-old man remains in hospital with serious head injuries, while two additional arrests were made this morning – a 20-year-old man from Thornbury and an 18-year-old man from Bundoora
