    Default Attacks against Indians in Australia continue

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/8449731.stm

    we had a new incident yesterday


    An Indian man is in a serious condition in a Melbourne hospital after being attacked and set alight by a gang. The attack comes a week after an Indian graduate student, Nitin Garg, was stabbed to death in the city.
    This prompted a travel advisory from the Indian government about the safety of Melbourne.
    Last year saw a spate of attacks against Indian students, which has deterred many from studying in Australia.
    The 29-year-old Indian was returning home from a dinner party with his wife when he set up by a gang of men, who poured fluid over him and then set him alight.
    He is now in a Melbourne hospital, where his condition has been described as serious, suffering from burns to 15% of his body.

    Police say they are not sure why the man was targeted and whether it was a racially-motivated attack - but it is bound to increase the sense of outrage in India, where there's been an angry reaction to the murder last weekend of Nitin Garg.
    The Indian government has already this week issued an advisory warning about the dangers of travelling to Melbourne, Australia's second largest city, where the local Indian community claims that racist attacks are on the rise.

    Wtf is happening in Australia lately?

    There is violent crime in Australia, like in every other country in the world. From time to time, the victims of that crime are Indian. For whatever reason, this has become a world media sensation.

    Its horrible that a man was murdered and another was set alight. But i can safely assume that the crime rate in India is much higher than in Australia, and their media doesn't mention that or the amount of racism and prejudice that some of their minorities endure. I doubt if and Indian was murdered or set alight in Mumbai it would even make it into a paper. When Australians are murdered in India the media doesn't brand their whole nation racist and xenophobic and call for diplomatic relations to be suspended. For some reason India's Media seem to have a vendetta against Australia.

    For all I know, you're not a murderer until the victim has been killed by you...

    Anyway, I do believe that the choice of target wasn't random, setting random people alight would be rather unorthodox.

    The attacks aren't Racist in nature, it's just that Indians are incredibly easy Victims in extremely crime filled area. The problems with Muggings have been going on for years.

    You know what's Racist? When the dirt poor Aboriginal or the Middle class is robbed and set alight, where the ing outrage?

    Anyway, I do believe that the choice of target wasn't random, setting random people alight would be rather unorthodox.

    That's pretty strange stuff. It would be rare, very rare for something like that to happen at random. More likely he was someone who owed these guys money for gambling or similar.

    Australia does have a terrible problem with crime, which is another example of the Emperor's Clothes game. Hide the statistics and then there is no crime. Everyone around you is being attacked, bashed robbed, but if the statistics say it didnt happen - then it didnt happen. Cops refuse to investigate crime because then it means an incident report which means the statistics for the area get worse, so they will often tell you to get out of the station if it is just common assault/ robbery. No report - no crime - no statistics - crime is low.

    Never mind that crime is rampant. And the good news about the Indians being attacked is that the Feds and the States may actually do soimething about crime for everyone. But with rare exception, these are not racially motivated attacks. Just regular crime.

    How would you know? Racism is rife in Australia. Look at some of the Australian posters on this forum alone.

    You have no idea that this wasn't racial, but by the looks of things, it was racial.

    No it isn't. If it was, you'd have piles of immigrants dead 10 feet high. Australia is one of the most, if not the most, tolerant country on the planet. Not because people have high minded principles, but because they just don't care.

    As it is, the odd Indian gets mugged on the way home and suddenly the anti-western propaganda spin machine and multiculturalism industry comes out with a new way to attack a Western nation for causing all of the world's ills.

    Look at some of the Australian posters on this forum alone.
    But anyone who disagrees with the Leftist point of view is called a racist, and anyone who doesn't support unlimited immigration to anyone who applies is a racist. I've seen very little if any true racism on this board.

    You have no idea that this wasn't racial, but by the looks of things, it was racial.
    What looks of things? The guy was an Indian, so what. I have real trouble believing that people went looking for a random Indian to set on fire. It's possible, but unlikely.

    In another case which got some press, an Indian who was killed in Griffith - the two suspects were heading back to Nepal. Now they wouldn't be white people would they? But no, it was all racism.

    They're the same Gangs who've made themselves notorious for Raping old ladies and viciously torturing people in broad daylight.

    That's absolute ing . No detective or Generals Police officer, I have worked with or know gives a about statistics, nor will they order you out of the ing station if you've been robbed or assaulted. Your might have work with Americans or other foreigners who know, it's obviously false too those with any degree contact with the Australian police.

    Well I should have said 'unless it involves an Aboriginal,' but gees do I have to be *that* specific.

    Here's what Tim Priest had to say about it:

    The final straw for the New South Wales Police was the OCR 0p Crime Review, which Peter Ryan and his executive team came up with. It was loosely based on the groundbreaking Compstat program of the New York Police Department, the brainchild of Commissioner William Bratton. The difference between Ryan's OCR and the NYPD Compstat was that the NYPD model covered everything on the criminal waterfront. The Ryan-inspired OCR had just six crimes. And those six included domestic violence, random breath testing, theft, robbery, assaults and motor vehicle theft - no drugs, organised crime, firearms, shootings, attempted murders or homicides. The crimes that instil fear into the average citizen were ignored, and with plenty of innovative answers as to why. The OCR focused police attention on a limited number of crimes and allowed far more serious and deadly crimes to get out of control.
    *Link removed - find it yourself*

    Safe to say, I have had and do have, a fair bit to do with the Police.

    Or there was the famous comment by Deputy Commissioner Jeff Jarratt that Cabramatta was safer than Roseville, because, well...the statistics said so right! [For those foreigners, Cabramatta was a big heroin capital, less so now...and Roseville is a rich white folk / rich Asian suburb.

    In his book, Ryan blames Jarratt for the fiasco at Cabramatta, which Jarratt later cited in court as one of the reasons Ryan sacked him. Not only was Jarratt in charge of field operations, with ultimate command responsibility for Cabramatta, but he had led the committee which dreamed up the farcical crime index which listed Cabramatta as a safer suburb than Roseville, by not counting murder or drug crime.
    At a time when residents believed crime in Cabramatta was out of control, it caused untold damage, sending the message that the way to lower crime statistics was to pretend crime wasn't happening.
    http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2002/...185065750.html

    And you are so wrong that cops don't care about statistics. They get slammed in the OpReview if the stats go up by their commanders.

    Simon says otherwise
    No I didn't. I said they probably knew him.

    What little respect had for you, has vanished when you linked to a Website that advocates the idea of a race war, forced Assimilation and Ethnic cleansing.

    Since posting Racist Websites is a violation of the TOS, I have notified the Moderators.

    You have effectively said 'DOBBING!!!' because you don't like me showing you up. Very mature.

    I only wanted to post a complete copy of the article, and used a google search from the first place it came up. If you want to have me hung for that, have at it.

    But I'll remove the link to the article, so if anyone wants to read it from a source and the original source Quadrant cant be found without a subscription, they wont be able to.
