hi to all the forgotten australians

STG i guess you are not aware of the forgotten australians
you should type it in on your machine and read the senate reports
answer to your question

1) i am a real victim ,of daruk boys home windsor new south wales 1977/1978,

2) i am a real survivour , of the rapes and abuse that occurred in that state run institution
the same institution that the state of new south wales is covering up
and still continue to cover up just ask the state leader and the minister for d.o.c.s. of new south wales and see if they give you an honest answer

the answer is im a real victim and real survivor
of institutional abuse in the state of new south wales state run institutions

and yes i am real and what i have stated in the courts is real as well as that of the senate inquiries are real as well ,

go into it a bit further their were even judges on the take and that were pedophiles ,

now you can see why it is hard for us victims to get justice ,, corrupt police, corrupt judges , corrupt politicians, corupt lawyers , some one is corrupt in all jobs ,

so you answer me this SGT why are they corrupt , because they can get away with it in the high ranking job they are in ,and its a known fact ,

so much for trust and honesty among those who have the powers on their side ,

why we victims try to get justice the goverment still covers them up

from a real victim and a real survivor of sexual and physical abuse in state run institutions of new south wales

STG , i don't have to hide and never have and i speak the truth of what we suffered in these state run institutions

kind regards huffnpuf

I still don't know the point of this thread. People commit crimes. Persons in positions of trust can abuse that trust. Abuse of power is as old as the hills. Social standing (or lack thereof) and socio-economics quite obviously has sod-all to do with crime. Maybe the difference is generally the type of crime. Priests who rape boys only got in that position because of not having been caught before being accepted into priesthood. Same as cops, judges, teachers, welders, gardeners, bankers etc etc etc.

huffnpuff said: "so you answer me this SGT why are they corrupt , because they can get away with it in the high ranking job they are in ,and its a known fact".

The prisons are full of people who got away with it....for awhile. I'm a fraction concerned that you seem to think I advocate, or make excuses for the people who hurt you. Ain't the case. What happened is horrific and I hope you get the justice you deserve. Corruption happens all the time. People 'scratch' others backs for the sake of saving their own or as a favour for varying reasons. The real question is: 'Why do people commit crime?'.

hi to all the forgotten australians

StG '' their are many answers why people commit crime ,

whether it be minor or major

maybe they think they will get away with it

watched some one else do a crime

peer pressure

to gain from what crime they did depending on the crime in question

i hope that might help StG

As for the Prisons well their are no doubt some innocent one's that are doing time for crimes that others have done ,

i know of some who have been loaded up with crimes that police couldn't solve ,such as break ins and stealing , only because that person were know for those types of crimes

and so on

you are right in Saying curruption happens all the time but its more rife know than it has been for awhile nearly everyday some thing new hits the headlines

we know their is crime out their some worse than the others

why would i think you StG say ""im a fraction concerned that you seem to think i avocate ,or make excuses for the people who hurt you.Ain't the case . i thank you though for your reply in your post as do many of us forgotten australians

what made you think that as i never sugestted that in my post ,

you say you are in security work that could be anything in security as their are various security jobs, least you are on the side of the law though you don't have to be in security to do that ,

i can only hope that the state goverment re-address the senate reports that were handed down in august 2004 the forgotten australians and the second report march 2005 protecting vulnerable children in institutional care and out of home care

we are the forgotten australians and will no longer be forgotten

kind regards huffnpuff

Dear Belly,

I guess our experiences influence the way we react to people, and once a trust is lost it becomes difficult to trust again. Sometimes for a while, sometimes forever. On the whole I think that we would prefer to trust rather than not. Most of us believe that people are decent on the whole...We want to trust and respect our police force.

Yet, we read horror stories about bad police officers, politicians, doctors, lawyers, teachers, et cetera. Corruption exists in any large and powerful organisation - especially when there's a lot at stake - and corruption - is part and parcel of the job. Policing is a tough job - and not every recruit
is a success story. Many have been broken by the system as we know.

However, what's the alternative? We need a police force - all we can do is put pressure on our elected officials to clean up the mess that currently exists - especially in N.S.W.

Police corruption. Political corruption. I even know someone who filed a corruption complaint against a TAFE teacher. Humans can be very unpleasant can't they.

One solution for corrupt police might be to stop maligning them at every opportunity in the press and on talk back radio. Perhaps then more people may be willing to join an organisation that is perceived to possess some integrity.

Police found guilty of corruption do not need to be sensationalised in the media. Report the story one day that's it. Similar to what the left wing press does with other stories that don't fit their agenda. Quite interesting the one paragraph stories found in the middle of some obscure insert in the weekend papers. Heard any about the successes in Iraq for instance?

The police force are having difficulty recruiting and keeping staff. This is a fact that can not be conducive to retaining the type of person the general population want.

The populace seem to want teachers that possess the major character traits of a Wesley Missionary. I think they want some mythical individual to be a copper as well.

Police corruption exists because humans can be corrupted. Many argue society is corrupt, what is the surprise.
