Dear Phillip S,

This has been known for decades.

“An ECPAT study that was released in 1994, recorded the number of foreign men who were arrested by Asian police for sexually abusing children in Asia. The three year study showed that of the 160 foreign men arrested, 25% were American, 18% were German, and 14% were Australian.”

That ratio keeps increasing;

Australians, for instance, have been identified as the largest group of sex tourists prosecuted in Thailand (31 per cent of the total).
Wikipedia

When the relative numbers of male visitors from these three worst countries were taken into account plus the size of their countries then Australia becomes a standout this is despite Australia even then having the most up to date laws in this regard.

Efforts by the Australian and Thai governments have helped to curb this to a degree. Now the focus has shifted to Indonesia.

“Of the 107 sex offenders denied entry to Indonesia this year, 92 were from Australia.”
http://www.thecourier.com.au/story/4776467/indonesia-reveals-huge-influx-of-australian-child-sex-offenders/?cs=5

Given that the average number of children an Australian will abuse while on holiday to places like Indonesia or Thailand is said to be around 10 and given that less than 5% are thought to be caught there are literally thousands of children being raped each year at the hands of Australian men. What is it about the older Australian males which makes them so attracted to young children for sexual pleasure?

I would completely understand if either of those countries banned lone Australian men from obtaining visas. Would you support it too?

Dear SteeleRedux,

Here's another link that may be of interest:

It helps explain a few things.

SteeleRedux & Foxy,

You are both welcome to start your own thread on the subject of sex tourism rather than to deliberately hijack this one.

Foxy in particular, since you are always the very first to object and so stridently!, if a poster appears to stray from what you intend, your leading!, on a thread.

However, just to show the obvious flaws and silliness in SR's speculative projections of thousands of sex molestations by 'old Australian men' that readers are encouraged to imagine are being committed as they read, the reason why Australians feature higher in detections is because of intel sharing agreement and cooperation initiatives by both governments.

Bluntly to the numerically challenged, or to those who deliberately mislead (take your pick), of course the number of Australian offenders would be proportionally higher as a result. Other governments may not (are NOT) doing that.

Also, because the Australian and other governments are sharing intel and Australia is taking action on passports it would be quite wrong, a deliberate lie, to speculate, to pretend, that could be many thousands of offences being committed by Australians. Simply put, they are not getting there to offend. They are at home, doubtlessly benefiting from the 'policies'(sic) of the lunar left that always benefit offenders at the expense of victims and the exasperated public. Idiocy as is being presently witnessed in the ACT where Greens roll logs in the road of action against drug-dealing, violent, outlaw motorcycle gangs.

Speaking of drug trafficking, that is another area where the AFP are involved in intel sharing with other governments to the mutual benefit of those governments and their citizens. But such a scream from the criminal rights sensitive leftists and Greens (OLO social justice warriors, SJWs, too, who only seem to care about protecting offenders) when criminals are caught red-handed.

Now, what about the two of you admit and applaud the splendid world-class initiatives of the Turnbull government's actions against loathsome child molesters, such as sharing intel and refusing passports and then go off to start your own thread if you would like to pursue it further? SteelRedux especially, since you don't appear to have ever started a thread and it your habit to hijack threads instead.

Mmmm,

Leoj pops here in to invite Foxy and myself to start a different thread because he felt it had been hijacked.

This was despite the fact that we were responding to a comment by Phillip S who was busily diverting the thread to sex crimes in the UK which had nothing to do with what some clown in Australia was spouting on about low sperm counts.

Was there an invitation for phillip S to start his own thread? No. Because in leoj's mind all that is required to make an 'approved' connection is that the subjects are Muslim. What rubbish.

After his invitation he then proceeded to wax lyrically on the so called diverted topic. Deeply hypocritical though quietly amusing.

Last sentence, "SteelRedux especially, since you don't appear to have ever started a thread and it your habit to hijack threads instead",

should be,

"SteelRedux especially, since it your habit to hijack threads instead".
