Police pepper spray black teen because he couldn’t possibly be part of white family

Andrew Bolt would argue that race had nothing to do with this if it happened to and Indigenous person in his Malvern

Fuquay-Varina, North Carolina

Foster parents Ricky and Stacy Tyler left the side entrance door unlocked for 18 year old DeShawn Currie, on Monday afternoon – aware DeShawn was coming home early that day to an empty house. A neighbor spotted the teen entering the home and called 911 to report a break in. Three officers responded in pavlovian fashion, handling the teen as a suspect rather than putting aside racial bias and giving the black kid the benefit of the doubt. After ordering DeShawn to put his hands on the door,

said DeShawn. “I was like, ‘For what? This is my house.’ I was like, ‘Why are y’all in here?'”

the cops pointed to photos of the Tyler’s three white children and decided he didn’t belong there. DeShawn, justly upset, objected to being treated like a criminal in his own home. Of course, in Copworld, that translates to being threatening and belligerent so that’s a pepper spraying to the face. Stacy Tyler arrived home to find E.M.S workers tending to DeShawn. Cops didn’t pepper spray her.

“My 5-year-old last night, she looked at me and said, ‘Mama I don’t understand why they hated our brother, and they had to come in and hurt him.'”

In addition to DeShawn still being alive, the best part of this story is being reminded that yes, wonderful people still exist.

“He’s my baby boy just as much as my other three children are,” said Stacy.

Son Of A Preacher Man – Just who are Abbott’s “preachers of hate”?

I hope Tony Abbott will forgive me if I’m a little sceptical of his “preachers of hate” red card system legislation he wants to push through the parliament.

Maybe it’s just me, but I’m a bit cautious when the first time he really seeks to go into the plan is on the Alan Jones programme. Jones we may remember is the man who has repeatedly faced court over claims he incited the Cronulla race riots with his own on air hate speech and who had the class to use Julia Gillard’s recently deceased father to launch a vicious attack on her.

I’m also sceptical when the government pushing this “preachers of hate” legislation is the same government that only recently backed down on its election promise on changing the Racial Discrimination Act to allow people to preach hate based on race.

Amongst those preachers of hate Abbott sought to give a green light to rather than a red card were Alan Jones and Andrew Bolt. How handy then to be discussing preachers of hate on the Alan Jones programme, after all I guess he’s an expert.

In Australia the last time I remember there being this much fuss over “preachers of hate” speaking in Australia was when Geert Wilders came to our country despite calls to have his visa application denied. Wilders has many charismatic followers, amongst them are Anders Behring Breivik who massacred 77 people in Norway in 2011, Andrew Bolt, and of course Cory Bernardi.

When this particular “preacher of hate” came to Australia it was Tony Abbott’s former Parliamentary Secretary Cory Bernardi that gave him not the red card, but the red carpet treatment, acting as his guide.

Geert Wilders - Europes pin-up boy for racial hatred

Still, “preachers of hate” of hate is a pretty loose term, ones view of it would depend on your views on preachers and on hate.

In the US there is Federal legislation to protect its citizens from hate crime. A hate crime is deemed a crime against someone who is based in the victims race, religion. ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability.

Tony Abbott seems to view hate a little differently, saying on radio;

“Under the law that we are bringing through the Parliament hopefully before the end of the year, it will be an offence to promote terrorism – not just to engage in terrorism – but to promote terrorism.”

Whilst I agree with this, I don’t think it goes anywhere close to far enough. In fact it would seem to the casual observer that Abbott believes  a “preacher of hate” is someone who promotes terrorism, not someone who is on a soapbox making speeches designed to promote hatred, discrimination, and ignorance.

I would suggest that this is a very narrow view indeed.

Preacher of hate Alan Jones used the Abbott interview to preach some hatred about an Islamic organisation in Australia he would like to see banned.

 

The group is called  Hizb ut-Tahrir and they are banned in some parts of the world. I don’t claim to know enough about this group to give my views on them being “preachers of hate” so I won’t, but banning them would seem futile to me.

Banning hasn’t exactly worked a treat for bikie gangs, why would this be any different? In fact it seems to only make them harder to monitor.

Banning an organisation won’t suddenly change its members beliefs, I’d argue that it may even antagonise the membership.

It is rather ironic that the same people who were arguing for greater freedom of speech when it came to changing the Racial Discrimination Act are the same people wanting less freedom of speech for those whose views they disagree with.

I am in 100% agreement however that freedom of speech should not be a get out of jail free card for those who incite violence, whether that be done directly or indirectly. However this needs to be a two-way street.

The handiwork of Alan Jones?

Those who claim to be Islamic while promoting violence against civilians and other terror related activities should be charged and jailed. By the same token those who promote views that lead to hatred and discrimination against Muslims and those of Middle Eastern background should also be charged and jailed.

If it was a criminal offence to preach hate in Australia maybe we would see less comments from those who seek to promote class warfare by branding people like the disabled, the pensioners, the single parents, and the unemployed as bludgers and claim they are draining our society while others do the heavy lifting.

Maybe also we would see less speeches made that brand homosexuals as perverts and people with no morals, by those who claim some sort of moral superiority such as we often see through church groups and Liberal Party Senators.

Maybe it would stop those who are trying to ensure that we view every woman wearing a head covering as some sort of threat with their incorrect and discriminatory calls to “ban the burqa”.

Maybe it would mean groups like the World Congress Of Families coming out here to spew forth their preaching that single mothers and homosexuals are damaging societies moral fabric would have to tone down their rhetoric or have their visa application denied. Given their Australian Ambassador is Kevin Andrews Minister for Social Services I’m sure the government wouldn’t agree on them being “preachers of hate”. Certainly not Kevin Andrews or Eric Abetz…

 

There is no doubt that hate speech is a current and relevant topic to be discussing and something needs to be legislated and made into law.

However I’m not sure that it’s a decision that should be made by this government alone and I’m also not sure that it should be discussed by the Prime Minister on the radio programme of someone who has already been found to have intentionally incited hatred.

This should be something that is overseen by a completely independent panel and has representatives from all cultures, religions and minority groups taking part.

This is far too important an issue to let it be overrun by right-wing agendas.

We need only look at the budget to see what a disaster that turns out being.

BRANDIS IS PUSHING THE GREEN LIGHT TO RACISM " THE BOLT LAW " DESPITE ALMOST 80% SUBMISSIONS AGAINST IT

 

4100 submissions almost 80% unanimously rejected the Brandis draft for changes to the Racial Discrimination Act  to be known as the “BOLT LAW” Brandis refused the Fairfax FOI request but allowed the ANU one. The Australian Attorney General’s proposal would give a a green light to racism. Despite the objections George Brandis intends to do his master Tony Abbott’s bidding and push ahead with the changes. Bolt calls it Freedom of Speech. “every individual should be permitted to say what they want” but not every individual Bolt is permitted the same platform with which to say it.

BOLT ADVOCATES CULTURAL GENOCIDE

Back in the 40’s Arthur Calwell  signed an agreement with the United Nations Refugee Organisation to accept displaced persons from European countries ravaged by war. Calwell was a staunch advocate of the White Australia Policy: while Europeans were welcomed to Australia, Calwell was deporting many Malayan, Indochinese and Chinese wartime refugees, some of whom had married Australian citizens and started families in Australia. He was noted for saying “I reject, in conscience, the idea that Australia should or ever can become a multi-racial society and survive.” He allowed the Bolts in despite their  family connections to Aalsmere Holland’s most infamous village during ww2.
Like Bolt Arthur Calwell believed in Assimilation  and coined the most demeaning term to describe non English speaking migrants of European background as ‘New Australians’. In no other country in the world was any migrant so defined effectively removing their ethnic identities. Calwell’s vision made no allowance, of course, for the numbers of the non-Anglo-Celtic element in Australia’s population. Nor did it foreshadow the development of multicultural policies of the 1970s and the 1980s. Calwell’s policy concluded with a plea to all Australians “to help newcomers to become assimilated”. In ideal terms the New Australian would be encouraged to forgo their ethnic identity, adopt that of Anglo- Celtic Australia and within one or two generations be indistinguishable from the surrounding culture. Policies weren’t expected to  encourage the development of Italian Carlton, Vietnamese Abbottsford, Greek Richmond Afghan Dandenong etc multiculturalism according to Bolt got in the way.
Multiculturalism  encourages members of migrant and ethnic groups to cultivate cultural differences and at the same time to have mutual respect, tolerance and understanding for each other, especially an acceptance of ‘cultural differences’ which also after 2-3 generations become blurred. They were transitional not permanent enclaves. For people like Andrew Bolt Sydney rd Brunswick and north to Coburg are a threat not because these communities are not like Malvern  but because they are Islamic ghettoes which his glass ball tells will be permanent and not transitional.. It’s for this reason and reason alone he advocates a return to the old Calwell principals of immigration. The old dictation test could be brought back as a smoke screen to stop coloured & Islamic immigration into this country. Being anti -Islam is not Racism according to  Bolt because it’s a religion. Given that there are 1.6 billion  Muslims in the world & 98% are coloured Bolt can’t deny his Racism  it’s the same colour as his previous conviction under the Racial Discrimination Act. He is Anti- multiculturalism, anti-Sydney rd but not anti-Caulfield and Balaclava rd or anti-Chinese/Malaysian Box Hill. But he railes against Islamic enclaves  the communities and their institutions that support them. These  are havens for potential  terrorist cells.  Well trained professional terrorist cells would be less likely to be found there than in the Malvern st where Andrew Bolt lives.
In total there are 250,000 -300,000 Muslims in Melbourne from 70-80 countries. Not all speak English and not all speak Arabic it’s the language of the Koran. Islam is not their main binding feature their  native languages, cultures and communities communities  eg Dandenong, Box Hill, etc are.As are their varying  reasons for coming. Anti-Islamic cells are far more organised in Australia than Islamic terrorist cells and have done more damage. However when push comes to shove the media, the Islamic hate-preachers like Bolt get on their megaphones and  change the probability of peace. Fringe dwellers exist in all communities but it was Alan Jones who rallied the racists at Cronulla. You herald the white racist Aussie drunks into action not sober Muslims Andrew Bolt. At your ilk’s rallying cry mosque’s are defaced and vandalised as once were Synagogues

 When 100’s of Jewish men raced to Israel during the 6 day war and they were celebrated for doing so not demonised. Most wanted to help not fight some on the other hand hoped they could. Nobody suggested they were going to come  home to terrorise or shoot Egyptians or Palestinians. So 150 Syrians left Australia.Were they all men of fighting age? Why do you Bolt assume they all went for nefarious reasons?  Maybe to help displaced family stands out as a strong possibility to me?  Now10’s are back trained recruiters of cells and suicide bombers. Wouldn’t it be fantastic if we could train our boys in the ADF so well and so quickly! It takes years to train a special forces digger. But Islamists can do it months.

 All this insinuation and scaremongering is “bordering on demented” as Malcolm  Turnbull said. Bolt is “deranged’ and “unhinged”. He is the primary recruiter of hate in this city it’s greatest danger and lives in Malvern enclave. His constant baiting and demeaning of genuine refugee immigrants to this country is what breeds resentment of course it does, but not from the 99% of Muslim families in this city going about their daily business. Not even from Haddad family or other criminal elements none give a rats about about Bolt. He should however be concerned about  Aussies, of any colour, any age, any gender any creed that hates what he’s doing, generating hatred in this the world’s most livable city.

Below is a list far far from complete of honoured Australian Muslims. How many Dutch migrants have recently made the honours lists  Andrew Bolt?
