SM,

According to the Crime Statistics Agency (CSA)
Victorian police supplies the crime stats
agency with information on the number of
individuals alleged to have committed a crime, their
age and the country where they were born.

We're told that there were just over 80,000 unique
offenders in 2017-18 and not surprisingly the
majority around 59,000 were born in Australia.

That means three quarters were born in Australia
compared to 1% who were born in Sudan. Or put
another way of the 80,000 Victorian offenders -
879 were Sudanese.

Seeing as the Sudanese are a minority regarding
population size this makes sense. It of course
does not change the fact that the crime stats are
high.

cont'd ...

SM,

My older brother has reminded my that in the
1950s a Catholic prison chaplain while
visiting his Christian Brothers school
and giving a lecture on morality and behaviour,
expressed his concern that a disproportionate
number of residents in Australian jails like
Pentridge in Melbourne came from Christian
Brothers Schools.

Go figure.

Was it as a result of religion, education, their
Anglo-Celtic ancestry? Because at that time most of
the country was initially Anglo-Celtic.

SM I think it may be time to set the SS Foxy, adrift.
It appears that no end of discussion or comments are relevant, unless they are sponsored by her.
She quotes links and references which aid her agenda or views, and are to be taken as gospel.
You or anyone counters with opposing views or corrective ones, and your information is immediately dismissed, without reason or qualification.
It really is pointless, I realise she can't accept the real world and all it's faults, and that there are bad people out there, but it's not their fault, it's ours.
Unfortunately her mindset is not one of a socially well integrated person.
I believe she may have had a secular and reclusive up-bringing.
People think that being a librarian makes you worldly and helps open your mind and eyes, well apparently it doesn't.
Anyway, good luck with trying to convince the unconvinceable.

AVATAR,

Been trying to tell you, mate. Some people will go to their graves swearing that black is white.

ALTRAV,

Been trying to tell you mate. Some people will go to their graves swearing that black is white. You have reached the right conclusion on this person.

Some people will go to their graves swearing that black is white.
ALTRAV & ttbn,
The scary part is that almost half the population is like that !
They think common sense is to be opposed at all cost ! Why ? Not even they know !
