Brutal mugging in Glebe Park

Kuku said :

And why is there no mention of s^&* bag caucasians? And where are posts on how disgraceful they are and how they are reflective of all their race?

Um, because we’re trying to play nice.

And the acceptable terms are ‘bogan loser’, ‘druggo criminal’ or ‘white trash’.

As a resident of Glebe Park Apartments it is very sad to hear of such an incident; this is one of the routes residents often take when heading back to their appartments from Civic. Equally, it is often quite evident, particularly those living in Glebe Park Apt, that the park is frequented by “druggos” and suspicious looking individuals. It is often a “hub” for them to hang out.

The kids in mostly black? They’re harmless to anyone outside they’re own group and even then, they’re still pretty harmless.

Something i’d also like to point out is that the amount of serious crimes commited in Glebe has harshly dropped since they started massing there, sure, petty stuff like drinking in public or the occasional bong smoking may have gone up, but which would you really prefer? passive drunks, or asian students getting mugged on a regular basis and worse (i say this from personal experience of what ive seen there).

Then again, if you were refering to people other than them hanging around the park, then yes, you are entirely correct to call them druggos and generally be wary of them and you have my apologies if ive ranted about something off topic =]

“…wearing shorts and a hoodie”

Where are the fashion police when we need them?

Not if I shoot them first. Considering that the muggers are probably looking for some quick cash to score their next hit of Ice, I would take my chances that they couldn’t shoot the front of the Hoover dam due to come down jitters.

It’s that kind of thinking that could easily result in a dead Hosinator, which would probably be a good thing.

Australians should have the right to self defense via effective lethal force options beyond “sporting firearms”

But….

” 0.00 BAC requirement while armed.”

Thats kind of tight! suppose someone tries to roll you whilst you are chillaxin?

A quartet of (insert favourite martial art) black belts should go into Glebe park at night using the Q ship tactic then give the muggers multiple reasons for visiting casualty at Calvary.

+1 for that idea.

Guns are good, but I’d put my money on a black belt any day of the week. Besides the average mugger can easily get hold of a gun themselves thus you are again on even footing. But there are few muggers out there with the discipline or the dedication to become good at a martial art.

I thought it was common knowledge that Glebe Park is not a place you casually stroll through at night? I’m assuming they thought there’d be safety in numbers, but I guess the muggers had the same idea.

I’ve walked through Glebe Park many times at night and have always felt safe, that isn’t going to change because of a random incident by dickheads. Dickheads can have a go at you anywhere, they don’t only frequent the city parks.

Dig up Charles Bronson!

Sometimes, I wish we had a 2nd Amendment

And then of course I realise why is good that we don’t

Is that the “right to bear arms”?

Yeah, being mugged with a gun instead of a bottle could’ve ended much worse.

We do have the ability to bear arms, it just isn’t a right….and we can’t go around places like Glebe Park packing heat….but if we (we being law-abiding citizens that are vetted and generally honest and upright citizens) were able to carry firearms, we’d be 5 thugs less about now and someone, like me, would have 5 more notches on his ivory handled .45!

Reap what you sow!
