The unit was never properly resourced to deal with hate crime, according to a lawyer and community advocate.

She described an example where her organisation collated screenshots from a number of Facebook accounts that included derogatory comments against Muslim women."They said it didn't fit a bias crime report," she said.

She said that based on her experience with the Bias Crime Unit, it was never resourced to deal with the problem seriously. The man, who does not want to be identified for fear of death threats, said he has been subjected to constant attacks in the classroom at TAFE to the point where he felt his safety was being compromised.

Didn’t know such a unit existed!

Triplejay58 Wtf

What is the point of it with only one!

Just reaffirms the Lib's total ignorance & lack of care!

But at least there is one ,? But does he actually do anything ? What is his arrest , prosecution record. ?

'Our operator is busy at the moment ...your call is important to us ...please hold the line and our hate crimes officer will take your call as soon as possible ...estimated wait time is 5 days and 3 hours...'

I think I'm disillusioned with this article

peasley_mark He will spend a lot of time investigating the LiberalAus

What connection did Tarrent have to any right wing stuff in Australia ? In his 'manifesto' he says he was radicalised by seeing Muslims in Europe, was a European, and regarded Australians as 'drunk Europeans'.

So where was it the murderous far right supremacist in New Zealand came from, yes NSW, who has a single officer in hate crime unit, yes NSW, what party does not care, yes Liberal Party, who voted for far right supremacist slogan, yes Liberals.

i thought that guy in 8 chan the other day seemed like a cop :P

NSW Police will leave shifts short instead of paying OT to bring officers in...they're broke!...so not surprised this unit is only 1 strong

Just settle pettles all parties are covered in shite. If the police had good intel they would head these problems off , but no one tells, then screams blue murder when the shite hits the fan, right and left.

Wasn’t the Cronulla riots 2005? Your report on your channel said 2007.

Good ! Humans don’t need constant surveillance ! What is wrong with people ... there is so much fear of own species & neighbours . If aliens landed tomorrow we would all be best buds !

Just remember islam is a religion, not a race.

Y R people So unkind

Says who? Bias unit check my lawn bowls regularly. Not fake news just made up BS

One too many. Why are you promoting thought crime?

Good.

NSW, open for ummm!!

greenspace01 That's a 24/7 job. It's important.

Predictably, the 'free hate speech' bigots pile on. What are you afraid of boiz? That Constable Plod is gonna find the Nazi uniform in your closet? Sorry, not sorry - things are gonna get a lot harder for you soon. Fit yourselves up for a gaol suit. You'll look so pretty.

Good. That means the police are focusing in actual crimes not being thought police. I know that saddens the and gets in the way of your quest for a totalitarian regime. auspol

How many cops on the Muslim task force?

I feel so much better knowing that .. not

Omg that is really going to help with Hate Crime 😳🤔

Powerful effort not.

Good luck with that one....

Wishful thinking they will track ANTIFA thugs

HULLO SIR !! Hows yer Mothers Ducks 😃

ABC itself should be reported for hate crime . The story contains a statement that it’s bad to have “old white men “ running organisations.. Perhaps if the statement was “old Muslim men” ? See how that goes .

This 'Crime Unit' couldn't have been named any better. Christians questioning Islam is now pretty much labelled hate crime. Muslims questioning, attacking or threatening Christians is labelled conversation. It HAD to be called a 'Bias' Crime Unit just by default.

Ridiculous!

🤦‍♂️

Buy him a TV and a Radio 'hate crime central'

Well thats reassuring...

What a joke - monitoring free speech !

Ah yes, I see it's an important issue in this country.

Why are making this public? Now the extremists might get more active.

Maybe he she monitor and prosecute the ABC for spreading hate toward Nation Protecting Australians.

Dear ABC, perhaps one day Australia will become the communist utopia you dream of then all 'hate criminals' hate speech' and 'wrong think' white straight males can be thrown in the Gulags

Legalise weed, free up resources

More than enough

European bias in genetic research could limit understanding of diseaseThe majority of human genetic research has focused on people of European ancestry, leaving a gaping hole in our understanding of human disease and potential treatments, experts say. 'Genetic variation can also affect how effective a drug is, or how harmful.' I'm looking at you drug testing fanboys right now because you can't have it both ways, if diversity is a medical diagnostics confounder then testing drugs does not prevent harm in diverse populations. He who pays, plays. Diagnosis and treatment based on genetic mutations is as shady as hell no matter the ethnicity

Govts should identify hate crime as distinct form of assault or damage | Sky News AustraliaFormer deputy commissioner of the New South Wales Police Force Nick Kaldas says hate crimes should be identified by governments as a distinct form of assault or damage.\n\nMr Kaldas says that to deal with hate crimes, they must first be clearly identified, then quantified, before dedicating resources to managing the issue.\n\nThe former police officer points to the example of the United States and Europe, who have already made this switch in dealing with hate crime and can provide empirical data on its growth. \n\n\n\n I hate my ex girlfriend and like to post this on line does this classify as hate speech? Telling the uncomfortable truth these days appears to be a hate crime. Why? Such a logical approach will never happen in NSW because both sides of politics have their pet 'hates' which they will never let go of - hates such as licensed, law-abiding firearm owners and hunters.

Jacinda Ardern just proved typically 'feminine' behaviour is powerfulThe New Zealand Prime Minister has wasted barely a word on the perpetrator of the crime. Grandstanding. When you dont have to contend with the excrement that the anii employed by murdoch pass off as journalism, it becomes a lot easier to be a leader & be honest & be female. Instead of trying to defend a shit ideology and its propaganda machine, she can focus on reality & do her job Bull shit she's not muslim so why dress like like one , we are all shocked by what happened, but she remains the NZ Priminister .
