Redneck- time and time again you provide your opinion's without any backup and this is no exception.

BOSCAR clarified the 70 sexual assault figure as not relating to gang rapes as previously quoted- if you wish to read something altogether untrue into it, so be it. I have simply stated all along that there is little evidence of something homogenous group of gang rapists in Sydney as you seem to believe.

If you really wish to be incredibly pedantic why don't you explain why the media were less and less concerned over the horrific rape of boarders at Trinity Grammar School, why don't you explain why there was no controversy over the charge bargaining procees used in that case, when it was so criticsed in the Bilal Skaf rapes?

In the end it comes down to a lot more than perhaps you understand Redneck. No one doubts the crimes were horrific, but they question the ways in which the media framed the racial discourses in ways in which stretched beyond reality- and in the end it is the media that has provided most, if not all your information about the rapists. Reading some texts other than the Telegraph and SMH would help you a lot more.

I have no idea who “BOSCAR” is and I presume that it is just another politically correct organisation staffed by homosexuals who despise their own country and who will stop at nothing to hide the truth. It is obvious to me that your own arguments are simply regurgitated extracts from the usual western hating pseudo intellectuals who’s scribbling only impress the already converted.

Most of my information comes from everyday newspaper reports which I cut out and keep in a database. But I have taken the trouble to obtain material from the ABS, the Australian Institute of Criminology, and the NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics which I cross reference with the newspaper articles. You are just squealing because I am doing you like a dinner.

I fully appreciate the fact that all cultures experience rape and gang rape. But what I am proving is that the unacceptably high incidences of gang rape behaviour in this country by men of Muslim culture is a product of their own cultural values, which stress that women must behave and dress in certain ways or they deserve to be raped. And if they are raped it is entirely their own fault.

This calls into question why we are bringing such dangerous and backward people into this country when they are plainly a threat to our wives and daughters.

The undeniable fact that we are witnessing a culturally conditioned pattern of rape behaviour by men of the Muslim faith can be seen in other Western countries. In Denmark, the Danish Minister of Justice announced on 8th March, 2002, that 76.5% of those convicted of rape in Copenhagen were of non Danish ethnic background representing a ten fold disparity. Journalist Lars Hedergaard wrote in the New York Post ( 27/8/2002) that the majority of convicted rapists in Denmark were Muslim men even though Muslims made up only 4% of the Danish population. This cross connects with information from NSW Sergent Tim Priests article in The Australian newspaper that 50% of the French prison population is Muslim, even though Muslims are only 5% of the French population.

Justin, I have made several posts that pertain directly to the article under discussion in the thread above. I object to the eponymous redneck's repetitive use of a false 'statistic' concerning supposed gang rapes in order to pursue his racist agenda. The figure of "70 gang rapes by Muslims" was convincingly discredited by Scooper above, by reference to NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research (BOCSAR). To reiterate:

"In August 2001, the Bureau released a media brief that clarified the figure of 70 sexual offences investigated in Bankstown for the month of June 1999. The media brief stated that 70 instances of sexual offences were reported to Bankstown police in June 1999 and that 'these offences were not committed by a gang..they were mainly committed by a single indivdual who has since been charged...' "

In redneck's obsessive cutting, pasting and cross-referencing, he has either missed that point, or (more likely) he is simply ignoring it because it doesn't suit his execrable 'argument'.

From my experience I have a daughter who in her 20s frequented Sydney Night Clubs with her girlfriends. While the Ozzie boys were getting sloshed out of their brain, my daughter and her girlfriends were having intelligent conversations with Lebanese Muslim young men who were buying them drinks. They soon learned that these young men were spiking their drinks for the purpose of sex. These girls soon learned to avoid them like the plague, otherwise you would end up raped and abandoned on the street somewhere. These supposedly nice young men did not imbibe drugs or alcohol because it was against their religion.

Dear Messrs Neck and Philo,

I refer to your letters posted to OLO from 3 October 2005 to 9 October 2005.

To Scooper9 and Mahatma Sitting Duck.

The newspaper reports and the subsequent electronic media coverage was about 70 RAPES which occured at or around the time of the Sydney Olympics. They were not about 70 sexual assaults (which may simply include inappropriate touching) in the Bankstown jurisdiction which may have occured during any one month.

Your assertions that one offender was responsible for all 70 sexual assaults (or rapes) in one month is more worthy of mirth than serious consideration. Are you being serious or are you pair just delerious?

Thank you, thank you, for helping to destroy your own fragile credibility with any impartial reader who may be perusing these articles.
