A interesting tweet from a indigenous friend

[chuckChuck]

The funny thing in the tweets from Landdownunder, the aboriginals were being called out for their bad behaviour "entitlement".

But if you look at the history of hockey riots by hockey fans in Canada and bad behavior around soccer matches in parts of Europe, bad behavior is not unique to Aboriginals. And probably occurs in Australia too.

It seems convenient to forget about all the entitlement and bad behavior of sports fans over sports.

And lets not forget about all the bad behavior and entitlement of the convoy blockaders and occupiers in Ottawa, Windsor and Coutts who felt they had the right to harass residents, party in hottubs, and block businesses and people from going about their daily lives.

Not to mention the group that conspired to kill cops in Coutts. No doubt some of the usual suspects are part of their support group and fundraising organization because they were " freedom" fighters. So much for the get tough on crime agenda promoted by the some of the same supporters! LOL

Was a blurb the other day on the news about racism, as it turns out the Indians are more racist than the whites, hell the Indians even call there own people apples, red on the outside and white in the inside.

the town i was in far north west remote west australia has similiar issues.

Limited to one box of beer daily or 1 bottle spirits or 2 wine i think.

You have to scan you ID a purchase and it is linked to all other pubs bottle shops. So ya cant go else were.
The Takeaway Alcohol Management System (TAMS) is in play in the Shire of Broome and Derby.

The initiative, introduced by the Broome Liquor Accord in March 2020 and extended in November 2022, is aimed at reducing crime, violence and anti-social behaviour within the community due to the misuse of alcohol.

Although the State Government will manage the 24-month trial of a Banned Drinkers Register (BDR) and Takeaway Alcohol Management System (TAMS), the Shire has contributed $55,000 towards the initiative with a further $135,000 funding coming from the Kimberley Regional Group.

Under the system, photo identification will be required when purchasing takeaway alcohol. The ID will be scanned by a TAMS system, which monitors the amount of alcohol purchased over a 24-hour period.

As a strategy to reduce sly grogging, the Liquor Control Act 1988 was amended to insert new provisions that make it an offence for a person to carry large quantities of liquor, in prescribed areas of the State. Currently, the maximum permitted quantities of packaged liquor that can be purchased are:

1 carton of beer, cider or pre-mixed spirits; or
3 bottles of wine; or
1 litre of spirits; or
1 litre of fortified wine; or
a combination of any two of (a), (b), (c) or (d), but not a combination of two of the same products.
The regulations allow for customers to carry a combination of two products as listed above in a vehicle.

cattle station owners are exempt as they might only go into town forntnightly and the stations buy a pallett at a time.

think they have to go to police and get paperwork and head straight home with the 48 boxes of beer

alcohol theft rampant from private residence in town

Edit at least there trying locals have no issues with it, indigenous says its racist.

can of worms

[Landdownunder]

This probably isn't the best thread for this, since it isn't specifically an indigenous problem, but the topic of prisons was brought up here.

Does anyone see any connection between these two?

[TSIPP]

It must be cheaper to keep the prisons full, I’ve always thought most in prison probably don’t really belong there, I’m sure it’s mental issues that put them in prison, as long as the prisoners are getting help it really doesn’t matter where they’re institutionalized but some are just plain evil and they really don’t belong in society.

Mass shooters are for sure insane, nobody sane does that stuff and the lefties blame it on guns….

[Blaithin]

Well… I’m not sure I’d use old mental hospital numbers as an example. They used to lock anyone up 😂 I think treatment and understanding of mental issues is much better than just lock them away and give them a lobotomy these days.

That said, I’m sure it has some bearing of course, just not the extreme of all those people that would’ve been in a mental hospital in the 60s are now criminals and going to jail instead.
