of Australians are racist, or so the herd said. I’d like to believe that it’s not true. At the moment I am sitting at my computer, in tears. I can’t believe I live in this country.
Yesterday, 5000 yobs marched in Cronulla, assaulting ‘lebs and wogs” and generally taking multiculturalism back 60 years. Without a doubt, it was mainly men, full of alcohol and violence- who feel threatened by someone who is different. They claim it is because a life saver was assaulted by ‘two men of Middle Eastern appearance’ last week, but surfers and yobs- the majority of those who marched have no respect for the lifesavers. This was an excuse to act like arseholes.

The media and PM are blaming it on the sun and alcohol, ignoring their own responsibilities. I have been surfing different sites to try and make sense of it all.
What concerns me is that in these hot days is the mad blood stirring will there be racial riots as part of our memories of the summer of 05-06??
