Melbourne is crime city. Every kid is armed with a knife, after 8pm, except in Footscray, they don't carry knives they carry machetes, and nunchucks, butterfly knives and other shit. They'll soon as stab you as shake your hand. Their parents are in the pokies, and don't give a rats, as long as VB is on tap and there is a free machine

Why would anyone want to visit Melbourne's wild west after dark, let alone a tourist.

The Indian student was stabbed to death walking to work at a takeaway restaurant, last week. Another man was stabbed after walking back to his car having been out to dinner with his wife in the city. He was 44yo and was walking back to his car, when he saw someone trying to break in to it. Approached the robber and was stabbed in the chest and neck multiple times. Police have a description and are on the look out for man wearing dark clothing about 185cm tall and carrying a knife, last seen driving off.

The amount of booze we consume and the amount we gamble make us a no go zone for police. They will not touch us while we are putting so much money into the coffers of the State Govt. They are equally addicted to booze license tax, and pokies revenue and are turning this town into bogan heaven.

you know why Gillard is defending the western suburbs of melbourne....because that is where the trailler she was born out the back of, still is parked. You can take politics away from the bogans, but you cant take the bogan out of Gillard.

We all seen the news about the Indian guy stabbed to death....
Is Australia as racist as India is suggesting??.....
Do the cops actually try to solve these sorts of cases??...

We probably are racist.

Then again, I think the only reason that guy was stabbed is that he was walking around at night through a park alone. Not because he was indian.

The older I get the more I think I'm racist. An indian guy felt me up on the train. Now I won't stand near them. And so many of them stink. Stop being such a stereotype!

Bogan Melbourne is having a knife sale at an outer eastern shopping centre. Nearly all of the knves are prohibited and require permits to own. The store manager says " You can't blame the tool for what the person holding it does"

He also explains that even though most of his customers are 18-25 yo disaffected male youths, with IQ's below average and of Asian backgorond, he does take the time to explain to warn customers of their legal responsibility to obtain the necessary permits before buying any banned knives.

In other words I cant sell them to you, but I want to. So get the necessary permits and you can purchase any banned knife you want.
