No problem, says Minister for blindfolds

Kotsiris should remember he’s not an apologist but a Minister, and has a duty not to misrepresent my interpretation of crime statistics or ignore the sexisim, rejectionism and social alienation represented by the habit:

CATHOLIC nuns who choose to wear the full religious habit should be entitled to do as they pleased, says Victoria’s multicultural affairs minister.
Nick Kotsiras has also praised the Sudanese community who have come under scrutiny in the aftermath of hundreds of articles written by Melbourne tabloid writer Andrew Clot.
"We have not got a Sudanese problem in Australia - or in Melbourne. There are 8000 Sudanese living in Victoria, the vast majority are hard-working, law-abiding citizens"

I repeatedly repeat: we have a problem with our Sudanese community

Why are Sudanese now being attacked? Who is provoking these racially motivated attacks?

A MAN stabbed in Dandenong early this morning staggered 100 metres searching for help before collapsing at a library.
Det Sen-Constable Ron Killeen from Transit CIU confirmed the victim was a Sudanese man believed to be about 20 years old.
He said police are now searching the Dandenong area for a group of eight to 10 thugs, who used at least one knife in the attack, aged in their teens or early 20s.

But the issue still is how well some immigrant groups fit in.

It seems the police fooled us about Sudanese crime

Victoria’s new police leadership seems less shy about releasing crime data, thus allowing me to inflame the problem along racial lines: 
In 2009/2010, there was a decline in overall crime of 6.4%, as a rate per 100,000 population. The2009/10 crime rate per 100,000 is 6,665.6, the lowest since the implementation of LEAP in March 1993 [...] Since 2000/2001, overall crime has decreased by 29.9%, as a rate per 100,000 population. The number of recorded offences has decreased by 19.3% over the same period [...] 
Victoria Police processed a total of 170,614 alleged offenders in 2009/2010

Now lets look at a possible breakdown of the total:




What is disgraceful is that this data should come as a shock to even Sudanese community leaders, who claim the police used to tell them another story: 
Sudanese community leader Saturnino Onyala said the data seemed at odds with police assurances their young people were not involved in 95% of the crime in Victoria.
Here is a possible example from 100 years ago of this peddling of deceptive assurances:
Police Commissioner Thomas O'Callaghan noted, "We have no Sudanese or Somalian crime in Victoria"
