Paul1405,
Hypocrisy sure does come in handy don't you think ?

I read accounts of incidents in the news.
I am amazed at how one-sided they can be.
They mostly centre around there being 'good' and 'bad'.
This contributes to 'sensationalism', used to pique the interest of readers?
But in practice, it takes two to tango.
Almost all parties contribute to undesirable outcomes.
So almost all parties should all be considered 'bad'?
By their actions, the so-called 'innocent' usually put themselves right in the 'firing line'.
They should know better?
But they seem to escape criticism.
And then they escape legal consequences.
And perhaps receive huge financial gain.
As I said, very one-sided.
Whether it is the victim of a shark attack, or someone claiming rape, they have almost certainly contributed to what happened to them.
They should share in society's aversion and distaste, and any legal consequences.
But also, all should share in society's ability to understand, and forgive.
Life must move on.

The OP in this thread shows Right Wing extremism does exist oin Australia. As the words show.

I have observed that AUS Rright wing racist misogynist old men rarely completed high school. They lack the education to think rationally. So sad to see.

Pauline Hanson dropped out of school at the age of 15, hardly literate, got pregnant, and worked for "Woolies" not a ringing endorsement for a person some here think should be Prime Minister. But then again she's probably "better educated" than they are.

probably "better educated" than they are.
Paul1405,
You're a prime example of an 'educated' human & you prove your ignorance in matters people perpetually.

Oh yes, you are right I had forgotten about the Cronulla Riot.
What I have not forgotten about is the subsequent expeditionary
campaign organised from near the Lakemba Mosque to attack Cronulla at night.
I got wind of what was happening when someone drove past that open
area across Punchbowl Rd from the mosque and saw the crowd with cars
being worked up and mentioned it on our network.
I then listened on the radio to the police operation.
Their radios were not enciphered at that time.
What was developing at time would have made the first riot seem like
a much milder event.
They were tracked from Lakemba all the way and the instruction from
the police were to try and stop them after the bridge.
They also had a gathering at Maroubra with others from Sth Sydney.
Police realised they were being monitored by them and then a voice
came up and gave an order and nothing more was heard.
I presumed they went to a secret channel. I couldn't find them.
However I did hear that there was great concern at the numbers and
the threats being made. I never heard how they were turned around.
I leave that to your imagination. The police did seem to be well organised.
I cannot imagine Australians organising an operation like that.
