This country is a dump and I'm Aussie!

You and I are fortunate to live in very affluent western nations. Most of the population in the world does not and would find living in Australia Nirvana by comparison to the true sh*thole conditions they might face in their own countries.

Given that Australia is one of the few countries which still offer independent skilled migration generally, most do not or limit it severely, this nation offers a lifeline and chance to turn lives around.

Think of it as a dump if you must but your dump is another mans family dreams.

"Publications should not place gratuitous emphasis on ..."

Take the word "Indian" and the phrase "Indian-born" and the item would comply.

The name "Baljit Singh" implies Punjabi / Indian ancestory but it is the name of the convict so it stays.

Why don't you call into your local police station and ask them in person?

I'd like to know what they say.

Should stake out these killing fields and send some plain clothes police into the parks to lure the evil doers to their doom.

Perhaps the plain clothes cops ARE the evil doers:sneaky:

Agreed. Those references to Indian and Indian-born don't seem necessary. They already have him under arrest so no need for identification purposes. No temp visa issues:

in obvious case where reference to a person's physical characteristics or ethnic background is relevant, or in the public interest, is when they are part of police descriptions of wanted suspects. Thus is particularly so when the suspects are regarded as violent and dangerous. When a person's physical characteristics or ethnic background are tendered as relevant evidence in court, they are then matters of public record.

I'd definitely treat the UK the same.

However maybe if I spent more time there, maybe my views would change.

I can definitely report that Aus City Parks are dead dodgy places after dark, probably worse than the trains at night. Certainly in Melbourne and Sydney anyway.

Don't think this one has been posted yet - slightly different slant on Aussie-Indian relations.....

Why not sentence them first time only. What is the probability of catching the same person again? Very less. :thumbdown:


Comes down to manpower... I'd say these recent events will change things. As for the Knives, I'd say the jail system wouldnt be able to cope at first.


As for my local park, we definitely get Gays down there after dark, and before then sometimes. Maybe the Police should concentrate on them eh ? However that would be deemed homophobic.... it's whats attracted the thugs IMO. Reason being the Gays out on "the beat" are quite unlikely to report a bashing.

I'll pay that :thumbsup:

I'd say the local police were turning a blind eye to the problems at local inner city parks at night. Now that Indians are deciding to reclaim the land, maybe things will change.

Only real way out of this, is to employ a hell of a lot more police.

Australia is not a dump is has the second highest standard of living in the world and the only western country not in recession and well as being a very large country with a small population with great natural attractions such as some of the best beaches in the world ,Australia is not a dangerous place its a peacful country with a low crime rate. The murder rate in OZ is four times lower then the USA.
Regarding these two murders of Indians, the first one in NSW it appears the victim was murdered by fellow Indians , indian farm labourers he owed money , regarding the second murder in Melbourne the victim was walking alone at night thorough a park in a bad suburb of Melboune. it was probably a robbery and nothing to do with racism. Theres been many cases of Indians committing crimes against Aussies, so are those all racist attacks?

Re: 2nd Indian found dead
 
I'm sorry but I don't get why anyone, in any country would walk through a park after dark. The only people there would be there for reasons not strictly legal. It must have been one of the first things my parents told me when I was first being allowed out in the 70s. It's common sense. If walking home after dark, no matter how many of you there are, you stick to public footpaths that are well lit and close to roads. It's called self preservation.

Parks during the day are for families and normal people. After dark they're for other members of the community.
