The Donald is allowed to do that Andrew Bolt can't and we should feel grateful
Andrew Bolt in his campaign for "Free Speech" as is allowed in the USA by the First Amendment in the Constitution has the impact of allowing people to lie vilify misinform, disinform and do whatever they want. The only defense available for those that feel victims is to sue. However economics simply precludes an equal playing field. No better example can be found than Donald Trump the President Elect of America who uses "threats to sue " against each and everybody in sight. The Trump card of economic power that's rarely a realty or option for more than the 1%. If Bill Leak's cartoons were directed at him or the QUT students ran complaint campaign against Trump he'd simply "threaten to sue" and have them gamble. Donald Trump has revealed what "Freedom of Speech" the speech that Bolt wants so desperately means for him. The right to lie, the right to be loose with facts, the right to vilify, the right to oppress with words, not on a one to one basis but on the right to "broadcast " unsubstantiated facts to vilify at will and call it in the words of Donald Trump
"clever campaign tactics" simply a euphemism for "I have the money so fuck you". Section 18C &D prevents that and helps the less economically resourced not be completely trodden on not just by the likes of Donald Trump but Andrew Bolt and the 1% for whom he's their MSM media voice. Be grateful for the HRC, Gillian Triggs, the Law and the RDA and it's sections that keep these arseholes at bay. Nevertheless Andrew Bolt is their pitbull in a suit.
Free Speech Trump style
Republican lawmaker proposes bill to criminalize protests against Trump
"The state's Commissioner for Children and Young People, says "The numbers of youth offenders is dropping; the reality is that this massive concern about a youth crime wave is exaggerated.".
However the noise created by the extreme right media like Andrew Bolt is not. The numbers involved in youth crime is dropping as is the offenses but not according to Andrew Bolt who turns to skewed stats as evidence.
"The truth looks very different. While overall crime rates in Victoria
are up 11 per cent, according to the latest data from the Crime
Statistics Agency, the number of young people aged 10-19 caught
committing crimes has actually dropped over the past four years. So too has the number of offences they are committing."The Age
"Dandenong was the fifth most crime-affected local government area, trailing after Melbourne, Latrobe, Yarra and Horsham."
All the Pasquale Barbaros are part of an Italian crime family. Does Andrew Bolt ask "Who Let them in?". Italians don't appear on his list marked as an unwanted nationality but Lebanese do because of a crime family. Two obviously white people rob a jewellery store. A white man ram raids a store and steals $80,000 worth of specs countless crimes and murders committed by whites but go unreported by Andrew Bolt. Not a word from Bolt. The increasing criminality of white Australians seems to require no apology no guilt or no focus. Ice in rural is pandemic and it's white Australian but ignored by Andrew Bolt.
His increasing need to focus on the massive increase in crime by white Australians is not warranted let alone narrowed down to Aussies of English or European descent. For Bolt the focus is purely on the Africans but today as the banner reads it's the Sudanese. No matter that all kids are reckless and have formed gangs of various sorts over the years. Melbourne's history can be described by gangs Irish Catholics, Italians, Vietnamese, Chinese, Mod's Rockers, the Preston boys, the reservoir boys, the Broady boys bikers and others make up the tapestry of the country over the years. Gangs formed for pride, crimes and even patriotism and allegiance to differences being fought at home. Andrew Bolt ignore them all has publicly narrowed it down to and magnified the Apex Gang. When that failed to get traction because the Apex gang turned out to be multicultural gang. Bolt took out a bigger lens and directed it to Black Africans today even that seems too broad for him today it's the Black African Sudanese community of Australia.
No matter that a minority of kids have been organized or organized themselves to commit serial crimes each act is recorded separately treated separately such that a single event can appear statistically as dozen crimes or more rather than one simply because of the number of charges laid. Bolt takes that opportunity to describe single events as a plague comitted by a huge nest why? Because his bigotry is real and intended to smears a community simply because they are black Sudanese but more so refugees possibly Muslim who have no media access, representation or right of reply in the community to enable them to fight back to Andrew Bolt's accusations stereotyping bigotry. Andrew Bolt is living proof that White Christian Nationalists the equivalent of the US's KKK, the Nazi Party are alive and well in Australia and he is their voice.
