"Jone's Racist Bashing Day"
On
Channel 7's Today Tonight it was featured that 2GB radio's Alan Jones was responsible for broadcasting a message calling all 'true australians' to support a racial 'Bashing Day", leading up to the chaotic events we witnessed last weekend in Sydney. How could someone say something like that through the media? How could the government not close down on such activities? The private sector should still uphold ethical practices and not provoke violent activity. It is just shocking that something like this was allowed to take place in the first place. I dont think that he is singularly responsible for the weekend violence, however, i do believe that he should not have been allowed to do anything that would encourage such illegal racist and small minded activities. Violence never solves anything. Someone as knowledgable as him should realise this.
We have all heard the stories about evil con mens from various lines of contract work. They take the money of their unsuspecting victims and simply disappear without a trace. Occassionally, they are tracked down. Faces are then put to the crime, that are then sometimes investigated. Why aren't there any riots against these people? Aren't people, in general, tired of being conned? Why aren't there mobs chasing these criminals down? Why aren't there rallies held to kick them out of our community for good? Racism is unfortunately very much alive.
But could it just be another form of extreme Australian Nationalism?
Here is a blog that might suggest such an alternative. I think it's a combination of both. Both views are just as misguided and narrowminded if you ask me.
