it's not fair.

Broome man who detained three Aboriginal children with cable ties
told police he wanted ‘consequences’ for their trespassing
Matej Radelic – who has pleaded not guilty to three counts of assault –
claimed minors were ‘trashing’ his pool in recording tendered in court
Radelic said an older child threatened him with a large knife and rocks after the incident, and an officer who said the police were trying to control the situation remarked that Radelic had been “calm” and “chill as”.
The recording ends when the officers say they have to call “their boss” to determine what will happen to Radelic.
“I’m ready to take consequences from my end, if I done something wrong, let me know, but this is ridiculous,” he told the officers.
“The owner of the property, I got no friggin rights.”
A verdict is expected to be handed down in Radelic’s case next month.
