It's a low socio-economic area. Is that their fault? Do they choose this when they are born? Do they get to go to a decent school with the best, and most dedicated teachers? With such a lousy education do they then get to go onto higher education in order to get the better jobs for the future? NO NO NO NO AND NO, with very few exceptions.
Guys please. Have a little respect - there are two families out there who are probably breaking apart right now with grief from loosing the kids they loved.

Re: sydney riots
I thought kids in Australia were all too busy doing 'outdoor sporty things' to get into any bother. 
Or does this count as 'outdoor' activity ?
Perhaps I've been reading too many migration websites

The root cause of a crime lies in the decision to commit it.

and tossing petrol bombs at police is good practice for bowling in cricket and helps develop the upper arm muscles.

Re: sydney riots
You guys are sick.
I am shocked beyond belief.
Time for me to leave the forum I think. If this is the sort of people who hang around here I want nothing more to do with all this.
I shan't bother to reply, so do your worst.

If they stole my car, I would most certainly want to see them dead.

BTW, Have you always been perfectly behaved 100 pct of the time, I'd wager that a percentage of the people, have never been involved and never again will be involved in this kind of, understandable reaction of anger.
I Guess I could be deemed a "Pinko" however I'm a strong beleiver in people being able to better themselves given guidance rather than punishment.
I bet the above falls on deaf ears/closed eyes.
Have a beer instead "soupy"
