Over 1,000 people baying for blood. They shouldn’t be here? Where did you come from mate?
You should see some footage, available here (11mb file-need to follow link before download - unfortunately it’s White Nationalist TV Presents - The Battle for Cronulla). It’s shown all over the world, so you’ve probably seen something about this. I was seething with rage that this could happen. And not only that, but by the next day, after the ‘retaliations’ in Maroubra (sp?), the tv news hardly showed any footage or said much of significance about the mob violence the day before, instead only talking about the cars that had been smashed by ‘Lebanese youths’ in apparent retaliation.
The footage of over a thousand ‘white’ people marching through Cronulla Beach, yelling racist chants, chasing anyone of middle eastern appearance, showering ambulances and police with beer bottles as they tried to protect victims, THAT is the footage that needs to be played over again, that Australians need to see and be disgusted by. The thought of it, again, makes me furious. Sure there may be cause for anger at a few who are violent, but the whole point of the rule of law is it is supposed to be considered, rational, controlled. Mob violence is mindless, and in the same way I can’t think about this without getting angry, so I’ll just leave it here.

Yes, the Australian media coverage of this and the trial of Van Nguyen reminds me just how balanced and fair reporting is in Australia. Loving it.
