A coy media

Posted by Guest Blogger on Sunday, 22 January 2006 04:56.

We’ve had another little riot here in Melbourne. A life guard at a suburban swimming pool tried to eject a patron. As a result, the four life guards (one female) were set upon and bashed by a mob of 30 youths, the attack lasting until police arrived. One of the staff members was taken to hospital with a smashed cheek.

The events happened at Oak Park, one of the more multicultural of Melbourne’s suburbs (yet another proud moment for “diversity”).

It’s interesting that the reporting of the event has followed a typical pattern in which more is revealed in the internet version of the story than in the print version.

The internet article has a sentence in which a witness says of the mob that “They all appeared to be Middle-Eastern youths”. The print version is exactly the same as the internet article, except that this information has been removed.

I suppose the reasoning of the sub-editor is that fewer people are likely to read the internet version and that the information is too sensitive to release to a mass audience.

Cronalla must be the index of Rioting, If White Anglos protest, its Racist supremacy group, If Ethnic crime leads to public unrest, it did not happen, but if it did, provocation was by white racists.
Welcome to the surreal world Victoria, you asked for it, you got it.
Is that a less advanced PC suburb Mark?
I am hearing that some town councils have submitted to the Moslem demands and kicking out the Infidels when they want to swim in THEIR POOL. And the councils have granted their demands, stuff the tax payers and the OWNERS.
Perhaps it is a good time to contemplate action of guilt as was perpetrated on us in regards to the Aboriginal issue. And we demand to get it back. The real Australian mans Marbo maybe.
Like it or not, we are under Occupation by a foreign force, and if anyone else suggests otherwise is a pathological liar.

It’s interesting that only one paper has run this story. It’s not in The Age, the Australian (national) or the SMH (Sydney.)

It really does look like censorship.

After a bad experience at Cronulla I decided never to swim in the company of anyone else, male or female, but not for cultural or religious reasons. They called me “leathery” and I think I heard “Crone of Cronulla” behind my back. My wallys don’t judge me, that’s the thing.

Riot: Minor disturbance involving White sports fans.

Disturbance: Major Ethnic race riot.

Youth: Ethnic mugger.

Mugger:White mugger.

Racist murder: Ethnic killed by White criminal.

Apparently motiveless killing: racist murder of White person.

I’m no genius, but even I started to see through tripe like this about five years ago. I can’t believe that the majority of the population are stupid enough to believe what they see on the BBC and read in the print media. What’s going on?

There’s more discussion of this here, at Tim Blair’s site. The next day’s Age had a comment by a senior police officer that Melbourne’s hot weather may have frayed tempers at the pool. Ho ho ho. Blair also has this discussion of the actual incident.
