the bullying I hate

I was more upset with the bullying taunts than the criminal act. Last year at Bourke my CD player was stolen - the thieves broke in to the bedroom while I was elsewhere in the house but I was more tolerant of this loss. The thieves got away with it because they could but they didn't rub in the violation with provocative laughter and racist humiliating taunts "Hey waitman I'll ring you tonight" that these low life PNGn thieves carried on with. I am pessimistic about what education can do for criminals who are resentful and racist and bullying and who don't care if they give their country and countrymen a bad name. The number of people who have told me not to show my wallet or phone makes up for the loss of the material object but it does not make up for the bullying insult and taunt. I think that is the difference between the Bourke theft and this theft. Crime is crime but bullying is objectionable behaviour from an objectionable sub set of humanity. Bullies are bullies because they can get away with it and they are dragging the reputation of their country down. Treasurer Philemon ought to look at this as a reason for why tourists do not come to his country. Guess what I will be telling most of my friends when I get back home Mr Philemon? If the government does not take a lead then it should not blame Australians for not coming here to be ripped off with expensive tourism, thieves and bullies.
