Read those stories and compare with your little skirmish in which i) one police officer suffered "possible fractured ribs" and ii) four kids were arrested.
Don't you think you might be making a fuss about not very much? And you wouldn't be trying to make a broad generalization from a single incident, would you?
And this:
>>When I say harsh.. I mean 'speak the language these people understand'.. full on.. no holds barred, take no prisoners.. wham bam thankyou mam all dissidents arrested.. all. Send them to re-education... if they don't then 'get it'..DEPORT.<<
Would you take the same action if the miscreants are a) Australian b) christian and c) white?
No need for an answer on that one, we all know your views.
