tigertim said:Yes, I don’t read interstate papers but I googled (not an exact science I appreciate) “terror” or “African youth crime” for other cities and apart from Sydney I could only find 1 or 2 others incidents.
Unless someone directs me to another Australian city with more or equal incidents than melbourne has/is enduring I’m going to be of the belief we have it the worst. And the question is “why”?

LeeToRainesToRoach said:Victoria is the most pro-immigration state by far and this is how they repay us. It's happening all over the world. I can't believe there is a single rational person still defending leftist policy. And once again DJT is vindicated - accepting people from certain parts of the world imperils your citizens.
So you are thereby saying that "true blue aussie" men are not educated? Phht. Dont have access to the other stuff you mention. Come on CT. By your way of rapair anarchy reigns supreme because there is always an excuse. By the way we do care, as this is being treated by inappropriately proportionate punishments it too will keep happening at the rates it has currently achieved.Coburgtiger said:Again, the imaginary link between immigration and violent crime.
If you only use the label 'terrorism' when discussing the violent crime of immigrants, it's going to look like all terrorism is caused by immigrants. If you instead look at the rates of violent crime as a population, you always find absolutely zero link between it and immigration.
One woman a week is killed at the hands of her good old true blue Aussie partner, but that's not terrorism, so who cares.
Randomly deporting parts of our population solves nothing. If you want to reduce violent crime, increase access to education, healthcare (physical and mental), and welfare. Treat the cause, not the symptom.
You, like so many, trip over yourselves in trying to seem even handed. Whilst you defend immigrants (which I understand) you then feel the need to denigrate “true blue Aussies”. Randomly denigrating parts of our population solves nothing.....Coburgtiger said:Again, the imaginary link between immigration and violent crime.

HR said:Take mental ilness more seriously = if you claim mental illness and are a threat to others or act illegally in any manner you stay under government control until you are well. Remove the courts from this process. Eliminate the ability for wankers to claim mental illness and stay on the streets. If released and they continue illegal or dangerous behaviour they go in for good. This isnt about the looneys it is about the public.
Terrorist as a term in my thinking requires a political motivation, unfortunately for the islam crew they mix religion with politics so they are easily tarnished with the terrorist brush.
gutfull said:Yes there are some Aussie asseholes men in the community and should be dealt with accordingly full force of the law. BUT the pricks that we allow in the country who were welcomed here and commit acts against community standards need to be exported out of Australia and those with legal grounds to be here *smile*ing it gets revoked .../

Brodders, just let everyone roam free without a care in the world. Let the community be at their mercy. This works so well for us now.Brodders17 said:im guessing by your use of language you have no experience of mental illness.
Do you propose to lock up anyone with a mental illness who may pose a risk?
what about people without a mental illness who pose a risk? should they be locked up?
who decides who poses a risk if courts are removed from the process?
where do you propose to lock up all these people that may pose a risk?

Ok, obviously not all mental illness cases need to be locked up. But i suggest if a case is presented to the courts or justice system and that person has acted illegally, or in a dangerous manner by use of a vehicle, threatening behaviour or aggression and then they claim MENTAL illness as their excuse then yes i think they should be locked up. Taken off the streets. As soon as they go for an excuse that shows they cannot control themselves, the court is bypassed and they are incarcerated. Once they then are found to be not mentally ill anymore, then put them in front of the courts to face the music.
This will not be a catch all but if the same was applied to rapists and other #$/^& in our society the message is a pretty loud one that we will not tolerate such behaviours and there are serious ramifications for acting outside the law.
As for the whereabouts I dont care where. If we had more murderers than our gaols could hold what would we do then, let em out? You either treat the stuff seriously or dont. I would rather build more institutions and have longer sentencing than deal with a funeral of a family member or friend or community member.
Lets get serious.

you say anyone with a mental illness who shows aggression should be locked up, what does that mean? If they yell at someone who cuts them off in traffic they get locked up forever?
acting illegally? if they steal a loaf of bread they stay in jail until they die?
lets get serious indeed.

This was simply unthinkable 20 years ago. Muslims have contaminated our way of life, and I resent it deeply.
