Fucken Bob. I would love to see these two guys go down to cronulla beach, with their wives, and get attacked for no reason, and have them threaten to rape their wives by 20 lebs.
Then let's see what they have to say.

It's not exactly untrue though.. when you play the race card to kill off Hansonite support and proceed for years on children overboard, terrorist boatpeople etc you've got to expect some blowback in the respect of creeping tolerance of those attitudes.
Of course it's nowhere near the biggest part of the problem, Howard wouldn't dog whistle if there weren't enough dogs to hear him.
