Exactly. They just keep saying the same things over and over and over again. We answer them and they continue.
I have said atleast 50 times no one can say these attacks are racist because the police investigation is not over yet. But still Indians keep saying they are racist.
Let me say it one last time.
You can not say these attacks are racist until the police investigation has ended and they have evidence that they are racially motivated.
After seeing the behavior and logic of the Indians in this thread, i can see why Pakistanis don't like Indians.
I won't scream as I don't have to. Here's what police said today, from a 'real' australian souce
Australian police admit knowing of racist attacks
The police chief of Australia's south-eastern state of Victoria, Simon Overland, says racism is a factor in some of the attacks on Indian students.
The comments come in the wake of the stabbing death of Indian graduate Nitin Garg in Melbourne's west, and the latest incident in which an Indian taxi driver was assaulted by a passenger in a suburb last weekend.
Police Chief Commissioner Overland says his officers have been working on the problem since long before it caught the public's attention.
He says a comprehensive police study of the violence shows about 50 per cent of attacks have been carried out on Indians working in the taxi industry and convenience stores, and that Indians were overrepresented when it came to robberies, but not assaults.
"Some of these attacks are racist, clearly, but not all of them," he said.
Mr Overland says police continue to work with Indian students on how to keep safe, and stronger enforcement had lead to a seven per cent fall in robberies with some offenders going before the courts.
Meanwhile, a former Australian defence force chief says that racial tensions over violence towards Indian students will only be resolved when their attackers are brought to justice.
Retired General Peter Cosgrove made the statement during the annual Australia Day Address in Sydney on Tuesday.
He says Australia can not afford to be complacent about racism.
"The vast majority of Australians, totally rejecting such despicable behaviour, will welcome the apprehension of those who are preying on these visitors and their rigorous prosecution," he said.
"Only that outcome will satisfy our determination to be and be known as a just and equitable society."
New attack will harm ties
The Indian government has condemned the latest attack on an Indian taxi driver in Melbourne over the weekend.
India's external affairs minister, SM Krishna, says the latest attack is unfortunate and will affect bilateral ties with Australia.
The Indian government has asked its High Commission in Canberra to provide a detailed report on the attack, during which the driver was punched in the head.
Indian ministers have made repeated requests to their Australian counterparts to take action to stop violence against Indians in Australia.
The series of attacks has generated public anger and widespread media coverage in India, where Australian officials have been accused of failing to deal with the problem.
Comment- Let me guide you on your next post - you can choose
1) maybe the police chief is indian, a RAW agent or mossad!
2) what police chief said does not represent the police chief
