How the hell did Fairfax make such an amateur mistake with that photo. I hope that guy sues them for all their domain.com advertising revenue.

So Tassie is going ahead with another 500 public service cuts because, god damnit, if we can't stop cost of living increases we'll just stop people making a living flat out. Also the unions were being mean ABC posted:The Tasmanian Government will cut an extra 500 jobs from the public service after failing to win support from the state's Upper House for a pay freeze. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-09-25/tas-government-pulls-pay-freeze-bill/5769396 Friends in education IT here are already covering 5 or 6 schools each, after the initial cuts it could be up to 12 each. If they get hit with further cuts there might only be 10 or so staff covering half the state. I'm sure it's just as catastrophic for every other government department. No way to save the economy like making sure no one has money to spend! Making sure nothing works properly so you can sell all the systems is just a bonus.

Muslim girl racially abused and assaulted in Garden City (Perth) which is probably the highest-class shopping mall in WA. There's almost a minimum average wage check when you enter.

And in more "News articles you will never see on the front page of the Daily Telegraph", some bloke apparently went into an Islamic school in SW Sydney with a knife, asking "is this a muslim school" before threatening a teacher and student with said knife. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/sep/26/islamic-school-in-sydneys-south-west-targeted-by-man-wielding-knife I bet this guy gets an order of australia medal or something aejix fucked around with this message at 02:27 on Sep 26, 2014 |

It just makes whatever idiot spray painted "you don't have our values" on the side of that mosque look even stupider. I'd be proud not to have your values if they're to abuse, threaten and vilify those who look a little different.

It's not at all shocking to see how little coverage this incident receives compared to a guy who probably/maybe was going to attack a random person. Imagine the reaction if the situation was reversed and it was a Muslim person threatening a Catholic school.

Oh and he then slags off people who claim Aboriginal children were stolen, because he doesn't believe the evidence. But SLANDERS Such a misunderstood comedian.

Imagine the reaction if the situation was reversed and it was a Muslim person threatening a Catholic school. I was at work from 6 this morning and was unfortunately exposed to morning TV. To my surprise this was one of the headline stories but the tail end of it had a whole lot of blame shifting and apologia. Now here's some Muslims who are protesting or got angry at us, the responsible meeja, in response to us camping outside their house asking about their terrist son.

Now that we can be sure some ASIO computer twerp is reading this thread, it's probably worth just getting my controversial opinions out of the way. Tony Abbott is a nerd and a lizard and probably has a toupee, Christopher Pyne is an anthropomorphic plague rat without the charm, and the entirety of the liberal party would be nazis if the flavor of our racist nationalism encouraged moral hand wringing, and everyone in asio loves to get peed on. Islam is also good, especially the communist ones.

TG-Chrono posted:I work with a taekwondo instructor who instructs with a Muslim bloke from Melbourne's eastern burbs who is pretty devout and active in his community. From conversations with him and information I've gotten from other sources, it seems there is something of a schism forming in the Islamic community around the Dandenong area. I've now had two muslim co-workers come to me at different times to explain how they're modern muslims and they don't understand nor care for the 'old fashioned' tenets. They told me this because they clearly want to distance themselves from what they call the traditional 'fundamentalists'. The fact that felt the need to do this kind of makes me sad. Anecdote I hate to drag beardgate up again but one of them did say to me that you could easily identify, with what he described as "some accuracy", the more traditional / conservative muslims in the community by their facial hair.

Heard via the mother of a police officer at Narre Warren that the local radical groups were planning a beheading at Fountain Gate food court. Hearsay of course. Cops at the Hallam mosque heard several mentions of incitement of violence from radical groups. Cops have been heavily present at shopping centers in nearby suburbs.
