[Police say Sudanese a gang threat]

THE DENIAL BY the POLITICALLY CORRECT MOB

Quote
[Inspector Scott Mahony, who handles multicultural policing issues in Melbourne's western suburbs, said Victoria Police was working on improving its rapport with the African community.

He said a DVD was being produced "in their own language presented by people in their own community that will explain to them what is the role of police in the situation".

Inspector Mahony said while he did not believe there was a problem with gangs, police needed to improve their understanding of African culture.]

THE REALITY
700 Sudanese youths riot in Keysborough last weekend.

Note..that was not '7'....or '70'...but 700 !

Apparently it was somehow clan or tribe based, but am seeking further information.

I find it curious though, that the solution seems to be regarded as 'police need to understand African Culture more'... duh.
I suppose 'Teaching these migrants about Australian culture and Law' would never work eh :)

Boaz: "700 Sudanese youths riot in Keysborough last weekend.

Note..that was not '7'....or '70'...but 700 !"

Funny there doesn't appear to be any mention of this on either the Age or Herald-Sun websites. This wouldn't be another case of Boaz's 'misinformed' rabble-rousing would it?

However, as I've demonstrated elsewhere, he's rarely one to let the facts get in the way of a good rant...

C.J.... perhaps you should begin watching the news ?

Your right.. but so am I... the article in the paper did not mention Sudanese, but the TV news not only mentioned them but also interviewed community leaders who discussed the problems of their youth.
No, not rabble rousing, simply using an example of ethnic related strife, to underline the importance of working toward homogeneity and unity in our society. I don't begrudge the Sudanese coming here, because once they get free of their initial tribalism, their values are fundamentally compatible with ours.... i.e. they are at least nominally Christian.

You can be sure that no matter what we get involved in world wide which involves any Islamic country, they will never be stealing rocket launchers or volunteering for Jihad against us here in Australia. Nope.. many of them having some from places where their churches (full) were machine gunned by Islamists, they will be quite supportive.

Such is not the case with some Muslims, as the evidence stands.

Clearly C.J. you know very little about true Islam, it might be time to begin studying it.

Oh..by the way, do you defend Bob Browns "Pauline Hanson is a blood sucking racist" comment

In the absence of any verifiable corroboration for your claims about the alleged riot, I'll remain sceptical thanks - both of the actuality and degree of the purported incident, and of your motives in reporting it so gleefully.

On the the other hand you ask this:

"Oh..by the way, do you defend Bob Browns "Pauline Hanson is a blood sucking racist" comment"

You also wrote:

"BOB BROWN IS A BLOODSUCKING RACIST AND A SEXUAL DEVIATE !"

What Bob Brown actually said was:

Hanson's Uglier Australia

Pauline Hanson's right to stand for parliament comes at huge indirect cost to Australia, Greens Leader Bob Brown said today.

'She costs Australian's dearly every time she makes racist remarks. She is a political bloodsucker on the nation, but one we will continue to host as part of the democratic ideal'.

'Pauline's role in giving Australia an uglier international profile has cost us much more than any immigrant could. She should stick to reform for women prisoners, rather than abuse of people she has never met', Senator Brown" said."

(Media Release from the Office of Greens Senator Bob Brown)

Of course she's she's a political bloodsucker on the nation - last election she shamelessly appealed to the nation's lowest common denominator in order to suck $400K from the nation's coffers. I've said elsewhere that I think that personal financial gain (plus her misguided ego) is her principal motivation for running again (if she actually does).

And her racist remarks are both embarrassing and damaging to our national reputation when reported in international media. So of course I agree with what Bob Brown actually said - as opposed to the typically mendacious way in which you twisted his words in this forum.

It is you who owe the apology - to Senator Bob Brown, whom you have outrageously defamed and insulted in this forum. If it was up to me you'd be in court, but Bob's nicer than me.

P.S. I know enough about Islam to know that it's even worse than Christianity.

This is the thread that never ends
Yes it goes on and on my friends
One day we started discussing for no reason -just because
And now we keep on and on discussing it forever - just because

Repeat until you see a VW and then shout "punch beetle" or "pinch mini" and belt (slag off) or pinch (slag off) the nearest person to you after which you recommence on an on again or 'till Dad (moderator) pulls over and threatens to make you walk (ban you all). You lot are bright enough to fill in the other basis of metaphor.

For all you new Australians out there this is based on an Australian tradition shared by many families usually on the drive to the beach for the annual holidays or the weekend drive out to Nanny an Poppy or over to Granda' and Ma.

Hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and have a great new year.
