Paul Sheehan says some facts should not be hushed up:
Just as Goulburn jail, home to the most violent offenders, is
dominated by Aborigines, Pacific Islanders and Lebanese Muslims, so is
racial hate-mongering in our society dispro****tionately represented by
these same groups, even as the ideologically tainted human rights
industry obsesses about white racism.
True, and the Sydney Morning Herald's editor demands others be as frank
as this about ethnicity and crime:
Why, for instance, are lockdown drills needed in a Sydney high school?
Clearly an incident of this sort has been expected for some time. The
children at the school had no doubt that most of the alleged attackers
were of Pacific Islander background. Is that a dreadful thing to
acknowledge? Not if it is true, surely. Yet to listen to some youth
workers and education experts speak about the events at Merrylands is to
hear a torrent of the most extraordinary obfuscation, and a reluctance
to acknowledge the reality that local residents live with every day.
There is no point *****footing around the issue of ethnicity.
But if the SMH is angry with people "*****footing around the issue of
ethnicity", it might first explain why some of the worst such
*****footing has been by its own re****ters.

"Attributing global climate change to human CO2 production is akin to
trying to diagnose an automotive problem by ignoring the engine
(analogous to the Sun in the climate system) and the transmission (water
vapour) and instead focusing entirely, not on one nut on a rear wheel,
which would be analogous to total CO2, but on one thread on that nut,
which represents the human contribution." Dr. Timothy Ball, Chairman of
