Given all the concern about child abuse among the Aboriginal Communities as is demonstrated here (<<< link) will I hear the same outrage about what is happening here:

The Guardian’s analysis of the files reveal that children are vastly over-represented in the reports. More than half of the 2,116 reports – a total of 1,086 incidents, or 51.3% – involve children, although children made up only about 18% of those in detention on Nauru during the time covered by the reports, May 2013 to October 2015. The findings come just weeks after the brutal treatment of young people in juvenile detention in the Northern Territory was exposed, leading to the Australian prime minister, Malcolm Turnbull, announcing a wide-ranging public inquiry.

And much more in the link.

Ferk you Dutton and Turnbull ~ not in my name!

for an ex lawyer you dont seem to understand the meaning of the word "allegedly". Or are you trying to claim that anyone who is the victim of a claim of abuse is automatically guilty without charges or prosecution?

I agree they are allegations which raise matters of concern and they need to be addressed. Turnbull raced to the schmedia today to tell us there will be an Inquiry into the entirely predictable collapse of the on-line Census process, but says nothing about these matters. Abuse of children in our detention is well down on what needs to be inquired into, it isn't even mentioned by the PM.

Shows where his priorities are.

What about abuse of aboriginal children which is well documented, in far greater proportion and which has been going on for ever. How about an inquiry into that?

I am not 'fine' with bashing women, and I have never lifted a finger to a woman, ever.

Absolutely! I'm all for it but Malcolm has more important things to worry about like the dumbarse Census matter.

I told you, I weep nightly.

PS clown, check my last 25 posts, or beyond if you can use the forums search function. Post my abo bash.

But as you brought up bashing, and accusing me of an abo bash, ain't you the bloke who bragged that you would bash a woman? Grin

.

Mods, that's was a fair riposte to the clown accusing me of abo bashing.

The clown must have a short memory of his disgrace.

That is getting pretty damn close to what I asked you to stop.
