Hi there Individual...

I fully support your suggestion that a form of National Service be reintroduced for both males and females. And it doesn't necessarily need to follow along military lines, however it does require an element of discipline to be imposed, in order to inculcate a level of personal and institutional discipline, for the good of the individual as well as the community. Perhaps then, an increase in the number of police may not be needed?

Yes o sung wu & individual, a year of national service would do the kids a great deal of good, but I wouldn't make it in any city area.

Most of them have been brainwashed into some form of environmentalist belief. & many would denounce using fire to reduce fuel loads in national parks & state forests. So lets give them a year close to nature, so they might actually get some idea of the subject.

Lets put a national service in to cleaning out these areas, to make then safer in a bad fire season, & simultaneously giving them some personal understanding of bush scrub & forest, & a stake in the proper treatment of these areas. A year of working in the outdoors would be good for both their physical & mental health, & give many of them a needed time to grow up, & mature. A chance to clear some of the brain washing of our education system, before work or uni.

Incidentally, good to see you back o sung wu, you should visit more often.

Perhaps then, an increase in the number of police may not be needed?
o sung wu,
You're on the nail there.

.....but I wouldn't make it in any city area.
Hasbeen,
Too right, after twelve months away from the National indoctrination facilities they would literally tell their former fellow indoctrinated to get a life !

Dear Diver Dan,

You seem to be agreeing that the police numbers surge we have in Victoria is not based on needs but rather driven by the Premier's interest for whatever reason.

Well done.

Therefore should they be defunded to bring them more in line with the NSW figures of officers per 100,000 of the population rather than the approximately 20% over and above at the moment?

What I’m saying outright, no alluding, is Victorian Police numbers appear to be sufficient to deal with rioting crowds.
Now that is in direct variation to outcomes in the US where Police packed up and walked away from their responsibility to maintain (should we say), peace and order etc.

Comparing Police numbers between States is incomprehensible to me, since I’m not in the game of determining such things, but judging by outcomes in front of all, Police numbers in Victoria appear to work, and where is there an obvious problem in NSW with less Police than Victoria?

What is obvious is that neither NSW or Victoria are defunding Police, especially on ideological grounds applicable to wayward youth rioting and looting with immunity under the pretence that BL actually M. Ideological BS wouldn’t you agree?

Defunding Police with any expectation that law and order will remain static is not only illogical but plainly is having a detrimental effect, are the article linked above in my original post,

Now SR,does the above heavy dialogue clear up your question?

Dan.
