Looks like your favourite cop's predictions went a bit pear-shaped, Gordy. Here's what he said in your (2004) article:
Quote:My prediction is that within ten years, Middle Eastern crime groups will spread rapidly across Australia as they seek to expand their enterprises. There will be no go areas in south western Sydney, just like Paris.

Nice to know, Gordy. I wonder how many other judgments Time Priest made were "slowed down".
Here's another one.
Quote:Policing is about enforcing the rule of law. It has never been about analyzing every offender for the root causes of crime. That is not our job. The police enforce the law and protect the community regardless of race, colour or religion.
With domestic violence legislation, policing has now entered the family home. It
is now the role of police to analyze offenders, and the police now have an online tool for analyzing DV situations. Here, the rule of law is grey. Things at first glance are not always what they seem. in many local command areas, the tendency is towards blanket AVOs to cover police arse. Someone shouts at their wife or child? Put an AVO in place.
Such policing is ridiculous. Policing is about obtaining evidence to press charges - this is
how they enforce the rule of law. You obtain evidence by knowing your community - your witnesses and your suspects. You do this by building a rapport with them.
An AVO in isolation is proof positive that no violence has occurred (if you discount the violence of the state in intruding without proper legal warrant into a home), since it is a civil matter and its intent is to PREVENT vaguely possible violence.
You can discount the self-interested feminist groups who want it deemed that simply being a woman places her in a violent situation vis-a-vis society, which is allegedly totally controlled by oppressive men and is thus violent towards women, and therefore she should be entitled to the full wrath of the law against any man just for breathing, if she happens to feel like it.
Total illegality are the 'DVO and AVO laws'.
And they wonder why this society is about to burst at the seams with all this violent government intervention, abuse, sell-offs, imposition and everything else that treats the common person as a vassal of the State.
Elect People Power ! (three word slogan time again)....
