Hey Big Nana and ttbn,
Yes they do seem deliberately play down or obfuscate the facts on crimes involving migrants or those who we might consider foreigners.
I assume they would claim they do it for political correctness - I'm not sure the topics ever really been debated but they definately do.

But I think the whole things more sinister.
I think it's to destroy and semblance of nationalism.
That it's impossible for us to identify our own, and to destroy any resemblance of Australian identity other than the one they are giving us.

Why do I think that?
- Because they don't mind sharing the ethnicy of someone the cops are looking for when they WANT the public's assistance.

Why is that happening in our society?
You can't build something new until you already existed first.

Say hello to the New World Order.
Communist bloody conspiracy that's what it is.

I think it's to destroy and semblance of nationalism.
Armchair Critic,
Even village idiots can see that, the problem is how to make the academically indoctrinated see it.

Answer- "Academics profit from immigration" and push it (especially Social Sciences- SocSci). Their "perspicacity" is based on their self interest. They justify it to themselves based on the notion of open/ globalised research and forget the community around them. This is very concerning as academics are supposedly objective- to such an extent that they are often considered the definition of objectivity by the community- they talk about "vanity publishing" in academia- it appears to be endemic in the Social Sciences. "Social Science is not science" apparently but is just an invention of Emile Durkheim (died 1917 France). Academics are supposed to be above superficial self interest and are rewarded well for this role- modern academics are an insult to Socrates, Galileo, and the thousands of years of history of academic inquiry. "Academics and Universities can no longer be trusted." "Academics have become politicians."

I just don't get why people on this forum can not see the forest for the trees.

TAKE YOUR BLINKERS OFF PEOPLE.
This problem is real and we are stupid enough to encourage it.

Political correctness has so much to answer for in modern day society.
