Just checking the stats about crime in Sydney, and disadvantaged burbs like Blacktown, Mount Druitt and surrounds have exceedingly higher crime rates than the more affluent burbs of the north and east. Having said that I don't think those western suburbs are at the rock bottom level of some of those more remote communities.

Issy, do you have an answer to the problem?

Too often the law gives just a slap on the wrist?

Damn straight - police officers who take part in
the miss-treatment of our Indigenous people in remote
communities - especially in the NT - are still part
of the force.

It's a cultural thing. Nothing will be solved until the bedwetters stop hiding behind cultural relativism.

Have a look at some of the Dorothy Dix questions posed by social engineers in search engines like Google. Here's one: "Is aboriginal culture violent?"

Tap the little ^ for the answer and, surprise, surprise, the answer is 'no' - despite the fact that history (in primary source documents) clearly describes the brutality and harshness of the culture, particularly where women and children are concerned.

No real person asks these questions: they are put up jobs for social engineers to pull the wool over our eyes.

Foxy,

Dear Is Mise,

You reallycan be clueless sometimes.

You say: "The murder rate for indiginous women is almost twice the US murder rate, which stood at 6.52/100,000 in 2020, the latest figures that I could find."

So that would put it at around 13/100,000.

Yet the figures for 2021 say...

Memphis, Tenn. 306 homicides. The homicide rate was 48.7 per 100,000.

Detroit 303 homicides. The homicide rate was 47.9 per 100,000.

Now Detroit is certainly know for its poverty after the collapse of its industries so that would be a big factor as it is in Aboriginal communities. But the kind of gun ownership and 'freedoms' that you want for this country would be a huge contributor.

"It's a cultural thing. Nothing will be solved until the bedwetters stop hiding behind cultural relativism."

Spot on.

the problem of aboriginal domestic violence/murder is the same as it has been for decades. To address the problem you have to identify that its a cultural issue with the aboriginal males treating their women the way they've been treated for millennia.

When society wants to address domestic violence in the wider community, it has no problem or compunction about laying the blame squarely at the feet of white men.

But to do that with regard the aboriginal community would require recognising the cultural aspect to the vastly greater levels of domestic violence there and accepting that the pre-European society wasn't the Disneyfied utopia that they imagine. But that is a bridge too far - better that a few more women die than have to admit that.

So they go looking for other 'solutions' which absolves the culture. Those other 'solutions', tried over and over again, never yield any positive outcomes, but they'll continue to be tried, because the alternative is just too much for the aboriginal apologists to face.
