Careful what you read.....
« on: November 08, 2013, 03:03:12 PM »

Look at the author, dim witted woman reporter.  Her article would make good fodder for those media analysis TV programs.

"And the local Bundy newspaper doesn't know the difference between badass bikies and just plain nasty non-bikie gang members.  But then all bikiers are gang members."
At my age you realise something very important, then ten minutes later you've forgotten it.

Bikies?  I didn't see any reference to bikies in the article.

I hope we're not getting a little paranoid ...... :crazy

There are a number of sources and people who are getting very paranoid. Just try to apply a common sense approach to what you hear and read. The hysteria will die down and the real issues will float to the surface. Be aware that a number of journalists thrive upon misrepresentation and have a hatred of the police.

Remember the truth rarely sells a newspaper.

From Wikipedia
" Current gangs in Melbourne include the Richmond based Yellow Klique, city based Central Crew, the western suburbs Brothers 4 Life and Young St Albans and Kings Park, and the Springvale based Young Springy Boys.[41] Members from Yellow Klique and Central Crew had formed alliances and are currently at war with Brothers 4 Life."

Well I've read the article 4 times and... I am paranoid...for the life of me I cant see any bikie link in that article. Its an article about gang members in Brothers 4 life.
Bad guys yes but I don't see the connection your expecting us to mate, sorry.

This story is true, only the actual facts have been changed to make it more interesting! And the worms make this crap up as they go along and use it to screw a living from the gullible. Disgusting little scroats!!

HA!!!!!  I SWEAR there has been an update. When I first posted this, the headline read as the link states - "BIKIES".      :cuss

Look at the time of my post, and the time of the Newspaper article - it now reads an hour AFTER I posted the link.     :eek

Seems like the boss editor man has had a word with the journalist to amend the content to read Gang instead of bikies.      :-(((

Anyway, as Brock pointed out - the link still carries the words that the original heading read.

Cheers, Diesel


EDIT: Just found this.... (click to enlarge)





Phew! credibility restored!    o:)
