Sydney 2005? |
AP Picture - NST World News, 14 December 2005 (pg. 30) - Unfortunately, we do not live in a righteous world. With respect to the riots in Sydney - and for whatever reason or cause and effect occurance, we are too naive to believe that law and order will be restored naturally. We are dealing with Human Nature - worse than the force of nature. So it is pointless to say that, 'they (whoever they are) are not entitled to respond in a violent, criminal manner.' Let's get real here.
If there is one thing to remember, it took a long, long time to build a reasonably, tolerant environment, and it only takes a few seconds to destroy it.
It is up to us to choose. being drunk doesn't help. Now the unrest have spread to Perth and Adelaide. Looks like this deep seated feelings are just waiting to explode. People will just have to choose, to live happily, or be in constant fear and unrest.
