BROTHERS FOR LIFE

[newstart2380]

I am so sick and tired of ethnic gangs bringing their C--P to Australia, not so many years ago this was not an issue here.

Is this how it is going to be ? or can we educate these people to our standard of living and if they want to assimilate then help them.

Whilst this gang may be flavour of the month in western Sydney, the eastern and southern side is terrorised by the Bra Boys.

How many drive bys in the last year have the Bra Boys been involved in, since you're making comparisons?

I read something in the herald this week pointing out statistics, shootings are less and were far worse in the 90's, I don't ever remember the shootings being publicized like they are now, but I could be wrong about that.

Here are some statistics that are worth noting

Yes, I do recall the late 90's being particularly bad - machine gun attack on Lakemba Police Station was pretty scary.

I reckon knives are pretty scary, lots of gangs have been using them since forever.

 it makes sense to respond no matter what really. a perception needs a response too. they all do it.

I think guns are scarier.   Remember that truck driver that got killed by a stray bullet? My husband used to work with him. http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/truck-driver-shooting-trio-refused-bail-20101019-16rij.html    Drive bys are common around here.
