I have linked an article by Mianda Devine on the left hand column and will leave it there for awhile to remind us of what the Cronulla riots are all about. Do read it.

The usual suspects gather to emphasise how terrible we ordinary Aussies are.

PROMINENT Australians, including a former governor-general and an archbishop, say Sydney’s racial violence is a symptom of deeply worrying divisions in our society. In an open letter, they call on all Australians – particularly political and community leaders – to reinforce national unity and cultural diversity.

Good idea. Could I suggest we start reinforcing national unity at Lakemba. The letter has 12 signatories – including Brisbane’s Anglican Primate Archbishop Phillip Aspinall, former governor-general Sir Ninian Stephen, former Victorian governor Sir James Gobbo and Melbourne barrister Julian Burnside QC. Enough said.

“Putting it all down to alcohol, stupidity or high spirits I think simply hides the problem. Community leaders need to make it very clear right at the outset that racist thinking and racist speech is simply not acceptable in Australia.”

True it does hide the problem; the problem of disfunctional anti-Australian Lebanese thugs who try and inflict their ideas of society on us. The Australians might have been drunk, stupid and in high spirits but the Lebanese were extremely dangerous, vindictive, life threatening and decidedly uncivilized. I’m getting tired of the empasis on the Aussie guys at Cronulla. All the news releases have centred on these people as if the whole thing happened in a vacuum. This is the effect now move on and ignore the cause. Plenty of coverage of the hundred odd white supremacists in a crowd of thousands, repeated coverage of an Aussie getting charged for holding a tree branch but none of Lebanese holding baseball bats. Ample video of the drunken yobbos uttering hate messages but none of the people at Maroubra getting bashed, having their cars totalled, pistol whipped and forced indoors at gunpoint. A bit of balance please. I’ll say it again…most Australians are not racist. The troubles at Cronulla had more to do with culture and a break down in policing than anything else. Any poll that says differently is flying in the face of a long history of people from other lands settling in Australia. If we are so racists why is it that we only have a problem with one very small group of immigrants. I guess the racist tag fits the Left’s policy of multiculturism. To admit it is anything other racist would force people to question the cultural divide between the Australian open society and the extremist Muslim one, the negative aspects of which the media are studiously ignoring. Don’t talk about the dysfunctional Lebanese Muslims with their horrendous attitude to woman; don’t discuss the effects of the laisser faireattitudes of NSW policing whereby they stay away from local gang violence and whatever you do don’t mention the overbearing criminal attitudes of so many uneducated Lebanese. Just show another video clip of a drunken Yobbo mouthing off. He’s the problem…believe us…we are smarter than you. Don’t think so!
