Dear runner,

The vast majority of these refugees were from South Sudan and come from a very Christian in culture.

The Four Corners episode tonight showed many attending a prosperity gospel, fundamentalist style church gathering.

Given one of the youths talked about having the chance to own a Ferrari and a mansion as a dream that was being thwarted by the attitudes of potential employers do you have any sense of that particular brand of Christianity failing them?

Foxy - Would you agree that once someone or an organization has been proven to be a liar they there is a good chance they will tell lies in the future or if it suits there agenda?

There are more instances available but this one shows how dishonest Victoria Police can be if it serves there interests.

VICTORIA Police faked more than 250,000 breath tests over a period of five years, a damning internal report has revealed.

A SHOCKING internal report has revealed Victorian police officers faked more than 250,000 random preliminary roadside breath tests (PBTs) over five years.

The report claims more than 1.5 per cent of 17.7 million tests were falsified by officers, many of whom are believed to have blown into the straw breathalysers themselves to meet quotas or to avoid breath testing motorists.

Victoria Police issued a statement shortly before 8.30pm on Wednesday declaring they had “let the community down”.

The statement includes an admission that the practice involves “an officer either (placing) a finger over the straw entry hole or (blowing) into the straw themselves”.

“It is believed the self-testing activity has been largely undertaken by general duties and highway patrol members, with some rural areas over-represented,” the statement said.

“It is not a practice found to be performed at supervised drug and alcohol bus testing sites.”

The activity was first reported to Victoria Police late last year. Once aware of the claims, an intelligence assessment was undertaken that involved “a very complex and protracted” analysis of five years of data, 1500 PBT devices and more than 17.7 million tests.

“Disappointingly (the tests) found 258,463 PBTs or 1.5 per cent of all tests had been falsified,” Professional Standards Command Assistant Commissioner Russell Barrett said.

“This conduct will not be tolerated, any member found engaging in this practice from today has been put on notice they will be investigated.

Watched the ABC and it re enforced my view in all things a middle path is the best result.
Yes they are 0.1 percent of the population, and their crimes are 1 percent.
In one case they are responsible for 10 percent of the crime in that category, not good.
They are different, therefore in some minds a danger/target
They set out to have a culture, even if baby's on arrival here, more like African Americans than ours.
All together not an easy start, having mostly only mothers , who by the way wish they never came here can not help.
They are here, it is our job to fix this,racism will not get it done.
Let the criminal system work as it tells us it does, blind to race rank and faith, deaf to external claims,and silent on bias of any kind,that doco showed a quite stupid old couple, ringing police to wrongly claim a group of Africans had invaded their front yard.
That highlights some of us should not be let out without a carer

Philip S,
That explains why they don't let you see the result after you blow the gadget. I think it immoral not to be allowed to know what level you're at when tested. So much for Law & Order.

Belly Quote "a quite stupid old couple, ringing police to wrongly claim a group of Africans had invaded their front yard."

First I have not watched it so my comment is made with that in mind.

With the numerous accounts of actual home invasions, violent assaults etc in Victoria virtually all against victims like the old couple, vulnerable, unable to fight back. what would you do, wait to phone police from your hospital bed or the morgue?

individual Police would have done that to make the public think they were doing a better job against drunk drivers than they were so it can also be assumed the opposite applies they would manipulate crime figures that would make rising crime statistics lower.

“African gangs commit one percent of the crimes”.

Given their small small percentage of the overall population, this is a large contribution. Belly is not only illiterate, he is also innumerate.

The African gangs are so wonderful really that we should soon see plane loads of Melbourne Marxists emigrating to Sudan and Somalia to enjoy even more of their company.
