Good post.
You realise that wars have started over less than this.
If the Oz way of life is in jeopardy, I say we fight for it, like this was a full on attack by a foreign power.
I want my children to grow up knowing the pleasure of Australian life like I did - not having to look over their shoulder to make sure they were free from rape and beating, because we were too narrow minded or scared to act when there was time.
Our government is either too sheltered within its own ivory tower, or too stupid to realise the problem that exists in the wider community.
If the police are unable to curb the threat of gangs violence, we have have little choice but to act ourselves.
The least it will do is bring the problem to immediate attention.
And that makes it hard for the AFP and Government to hide it in some back room until it is too late.
I can't believe that this crap is happening in out beautiful country.
How the hell have we allowed this to occur?
Cheers Artie
