Children being raped is OK for you?
Little babies being raped? Little girls with vaginal sores? 4 year olds with anal warts is OK?
It is not OK and it is out of all control
Just ask anyone who worked at the Alice Hospital - including me - and Rachel Hale
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11694609/Rachel-Hale-nurse-witness-yout...Much of the blame for the violence has fallen on alcohol bans in Aboriginal communities outside of Alice Springs being lifted in July.
But Ms Hale claimed the main reason kids were on the street was because of their deplorable home lives and vicious sexual assaults in the communities.
'None of the children I saw that night were intoxicated, but they were filled with rage and hatred,' she said.
Often during her 14 years of nursing in communities near both Alice Springs and Darwin, when she was called to a remote Aboriginal home another nurse was sent because the visits were so unsafe.
'Some of these houses have 10-15 people sleeping on the floor of a three-bedroom house. There's no personal hygiene, there's lice, scabies, fungal rashes, maggots in wounds, perforated ear drums - the level of care is shocking,' she said.
'That's why the kids are not at home, along with the vicious sexual assaults. The parents, the uncles, the cousins are all drinking and the kids are being preyed upon.
'The wives are being beaten in front of the kids, check any emergency department and you'll see the horrific injuries.'
