@AA – look at the next sentence.
Look, I am being a bit of a smart ass about this, but it is not the first time I have seen this type thing in the less reputable news sources, a 27 paragraph article exposing why something is wrong then a one sentence quote showing the opposite.
The people here saying youth crime is down everywhere: have you not been to Townsville or Alice Springs?
You gotta realise that there are different crimes (on one end you have murder and rape while on the other end you have graffiti).
Alice Springs is not relevant to a Queensland election.
https://mypolice.qld.gov.au/townsville/queensland-crime-statistics/
According to this data – using the rate of crime as the reference, not the raw numbers – crime is down in Townsville this year.
There’s also factors at play in regards to how crime is reported. From experience I can tell you lower end crimes don’t get recorded much anymore because it’s hard to get police to attend or investigate. That would lead to reduction in the statistics.
The actual statistics show that crime rates have decreased in Queensland. You cannot argue with that.
So why haven’t the stats been broken down by type of Offence?
It wouldn’t be hard to do, since both Murder and graffiti are separate Offences.
But they haven’t, which leads the sane to suspect the obvious, which is:
The public are being Gaslit by persons with a dodgy agenda.
@Real Talk adult crime vs youth crime?
I should note that crime statistics don’t count unreported crimes, which in rural areas like where I grew up (in NSW) are common. I grew up in rural NSW, we didn’t have a lot of cops, so I witnessed a few crimes (mostly vandalism, kids getting bashed or kids vaping or people smoking weed).
If youth crime has deceased why did I always see dodgy eshays who were possibly armed intimidate people the train station all the time in Mango Hill?
Also the North Lakes murder which we all remember, if it’s decreased then why are we seeing more youth crime trends on tiktok, they are using social media to promote the crime they do including stealing cars which directly leads to increase of youth crime because it causes other youths to do it too.
A social media ban I believe will also help reduce the numbers and reduce copycat crimes and gangs.
Because criminals didn’t use tiktok 10 years ago.
We’ve seen more crimes posted on tiktok within the past few years, because tiktok has become popular over the past few years. All this crime still happened 10 years ago, it just wasn’t posted on social media.
So much mental gymnastics going on.
The shifting of goalposts is impressive, on one level.
Next think you lot will say is that statistics are woke.
A A, yes but social media is being used to promote and encourage these crimes and encourage young men (and some young women) to pursuit this sort if behaviour.
I know the sort of people, they are the people I always avoided, they are the sort of individuals to also commit domestic violence, the government needs to take action and not only toughen the laws on sentencing and rehabilitation, but also invest in mental health (which leads to allot of crime) and invest in more public services and support the social media ban until 16.
If Dutton campaigns on youth crime it will be a vote winner especially if Albo doesn’t improve Alice Springs, and especially it Albo pushes back Crisafulli’s reforms.
The eshays and thugs are never going to vote for the LNP anyway, they are ALP/GRN voters who have allowed them to get off the hook and be released on bail all the time.
Time to log off and read a book. That’s enough internet for today.
@daniel i think albo has all but lost lingiari. and if both the nt and qld liberal govt make good on their promise or at least are seen to be doing something about youth crime they wll probably lose solomon and maybe blair. theyd also face a bit of a challenge in some of their other qld seats too. i think they will still hold moreton rankin and lilley but on reduced margins that would make them targets in 2028 oxley is about the only seat i think labor wont be worrying about.
