- Alice Springs resident Rachel Hale has called for media outlets, government organisations, and politicians to “get on the same page” as the town has had enough.
Ms Hale was overcome with emotion on Tuesday while discussing the crime crisis in Alice Springs as she also called a stop to the “political jostling”.
“Let me just say if things were working as they were now with all the government agencies trying to tackle this problem, we wouldn’t be here,” she told Sky News host Peta Credlin.
“We need to all come together now and stop all of this political jostling.
“It’s not about you, it’s about Alice Springs, it’s about these kids, it’s about Northern Australia, it’s about every single community, please.”
So cops in Australia beat the crap out of decent people going outside during covid......
But ignore this loutish behaviour?
The media should be holding politicians to account, not banging the same drum
and thats what REALLY sells newspapers.,,,,your spot on Danno.
so if indigenous people were in charge, the whole country would look like this?
We need to have a competent indigenous voice to parliament, not looking very competent at the moment
Yep! That's just about it.
Unchecked crime leads to more crime and ultimately causes poverty.
Bless you Peta Credlin, a class act.
Class act 🤣🤣. Whining murdouche scum crUdlin was a "class act" when chief advisor ( reported for bullying and intimidation ) to the mad monk. She thanks you for sucking up 👅 ( her favourite thing ).
@@countyorga764 your own writing speaks volumes about your class...
How about they take some responsibility for their own actions ffs
They have an IQ averaging in the 60's plus many will have fetal alcohol syndrome, they will be a curse on society and a leech on the taxpayer their entire worthless lives, they are beyond help.
Bloody oath.
Why would they?
Nobody has expected anything from them for 40 years.
@@grunthostheflatulent9649 40 years? Don't you mean 150 years lol
What can we do to help?
When I was working for NT Health in the 1980's it wasnt uncommon for kids to drink the dregs of alcohol from their parents left laying around bottles in the fringe camps. Glue, petrol sniffing and sexual Abuse was just as bad back then. This was the cause for the Stolen Generation so now we have come the full circle. A lot of us have stories to tell. I have PTSD from an incident that happened when I was 10yrs old thanks to an Aboriginal man thinking we were from the Government come to inspect his camp. This was done to keep Alice clean during Tourist seasons. The Youth Centre is what kept the community strong. Everyone went there.
Yeah, a lot of the newer people seeing this don't realize it is just another cycle of the same problems.
Exactly
I would offer some tissues, but after you live with it and see it for long enough you become kind of numb to it in some ways. It doesn't mean you like what you see, it just becomes normal. You only see so much of the violence and death before you learn to shut down emotionally to it.
I hope there is a sensible solution to this not too far away.
so much for the wise old adults passing their culture down to the younger generation.
I thought that bad behaviour was their culture.
@@janepearson5802 I know where you're coming from with that statement. The thing is they don't perceive that this behaviour is bad. To them it is justified. In tribal law, retribution is far reaching, women and children are fair game. If they have been wronged according to tribal law then any family member of the person that wronged them is fair game. And according to tribal law they have done nothing wrong in their acts of retribution. That is why some of the elders believe that their people should not be incarcerated. There are more Aboriginals trying to live tribal ways within a white man's society than people realise. Finally it is coming out in the open! Finally a conversation is happening. But it took a small number of courageous blacks and whites to bring this all out into the open. It's a bloody tragedy but at least now that it's out in the open, discussions between blacks and white might be able to stop the madness.
@@margaretarmstrong2445 the aborigines need a voice !
then they can tell the white people how to stop them from committing crimes !
@Margaret Armstrong I think I understand where you are coming from, but when Aboriginal women/ mothers are being bashed by their partners ,young Aboriginal children are being sexually attacked by male relatives . Foreign tourists alleged attacked and raped. Surely, this wouldn't be condoned in "Aboriginal law"? from the footage, it appeared some violence is also Aboriginal against Aboriginal, till things change at total alcohol ban full stop ....but the old descrimation against indigenous will be rolled out. Senator Jacinta Price seems to speak some sense along with politicians, elders, and representatives of the general community, who need to sit down and thrash something out . Current events can't be allowed to continue ,address some of the root causes ...reconciliation is the only way forward.
@@janepearson5802 No all the bad behaviour comes from my generation.
This is heartbreaking, raw😢💔.....something has to be done...seriously, this cannot continue.😢As shocking as it is to hear, thank you for bringing this to the public's attention, we rarely know what is going on in these parts of Australia.
nothing new been happening for years.
@@bikelifechris2401 l gather it has been, but media rarely talked about it until now. Finally we can view and hear about what is going on up there far from us . Hopefully there is a plan of action that can resolve these issues .
It's really sad but this is happening in the capital cities as well not just the outback . When you report it you are racist . It's just so wrong that this is allowed to happen because of a persons indigenous status or race . We're all human for Gods sake . It's frightening and traumatising to live through . For the sake of all Australians I hope we can find a solution that works for all of us .
Did we not just have a senator provoke her own people and tell them they are at war??? Then labour in NT let's them drink the violence juice and of course there is violence and crime. It does make you wonder, does it not??? So how do you fix this effectively, once and for all?
If the police arrest criminals who are black they get called racist for doing their job.
@@Aussie4Freedom1 it certainly is a crazy world.
Thank you for reporting we all really appreciate sky news and your support 🌸
starts looking like an average American large city now...quite an achievement.
Have no idea what you're talking about an obviously you've got no idea about this issue
Grog, Domestic Violence, Sexual Assaults, Stabbings, fights, theft, substance abuse (Petrol, glue, methylated spirits) The crime rate in Alice Springs has always been high. Many Aboriginal communities have a sort of death fatigue, there's always a funeral happening and the largest majority of it is from the above mentioned issues. The above also makes people not want to invest anything in those communities because the moment something is built it gets destroyed, people that went to work and help ended up being assaulted. I've told these facts to many people but you could probably guess the responses and reactions I've gotten so I just went on with my life well away from the place. As a normal citizen moving away, giving up on telling these stories to enlighten people was just the only cause of action I could do for my own peace of mind and moving forward. Systems fail when they do not tap into the needs of the people and many Aboriginal lead with white fella help (Dealing with "White fella" admin/paperwork etc) programs that were successful got scrapped because someone living in some other part of the country didn't like it.
Well said, the truth is hard to hear, but necessary.

Praying for Alice Springs 🙏
What is the point of helping anyone who doesn’t want to be helped? Give them half the land and leave them to their own devices. I cannot justify my taxes being put towards this kind of violence. I want to go to work, get paid, go home and enjoy my hard earned dollars. Why should my money be taxed to solve this situation? I don’t go around bashing people for no reason, i don’t even condone this behaviour yet my money is taken away from me to solve these issues? Take their money for their issues. Not mine.
One sentence, SOCIAL MEDIA. Rachael said the boys fighting weren't even drunk, it was a sport. Gee, I wonder where that came from? Everyone blames the Government, yet not one person has suggested what they do to fix this seemingly unfixable situation. TikTok, CZcams, etc are all to blame for glorifying this violence. I know for a fact, that Aboriginal booze and drug runners deliver to communities right across the APY lands, where the SA Government spends countless amounts of money and dedication to providing better living conditions than many people living in the cities, such things as building a huge swimming pool with green grass and all amenities, and a huge fence to keep the kids out. NO SCHOOL- NO POOL. Simple, all the latest computer tech, air-conditioned rooms, you name it, sports oval, Hospitals, Kindergartens, baby health clinics, wonderful places to live. What more can the Government do? Laws were passed to protect Aboriginal youth, now you can't control them, good luck with that. The answer is not blaming the Government, it's coming up with solutions, any suggestions?
Government social programs and cash injections aren't the solution here. Being held to account for their own behaviour is where things will start to improve.
Where has all the money gone from the rents and royalties. Throwing money at this is not going to solve it.
@@tonidantonio9877 it certainly hasn't so far! There has been decades of money thrown at the endless issues of indigenous people, yet look at how the youth in Alice Springs behave on the streets. What has all the money and the costly government programs achieved? I know indigenous people personally , and my brother is married to an Aboriginal girl, and the assistance and financial benefits they receive is massive. There's even generous 'rent assistance' payments to indigenous people with a full-time job!
@@DAWeeve I do not have trust in our government or that voice group. If they really wanted to make changes it would have happened from within their own culture long ago. This is still all about money, and nothing else. Indigenous kids that are in out of home care get 3 shifts of career in a home to look after them. The every day parent gets no assistance or down time from their kids. We need an audit and a specific report about what the voce is all about. We should not be introducing another layer of tax or rent. Govos already get tax, land tax and then there are rates and other fees. There is good and bad in ever race but alot of Indigenous do not want to change, do not want to work and are happy to take handouts. The protesters with lidia were violent and nasty and if that’s the sort of people we are deal with then this country will go to the wombats, Most of us didn’t have much to start with but be buffered if we were going to go down that Centrelink line etc. hard work never really killed anyone. Maybe their elders or leaders need to be better educated because I’m sure they do not want to see their grandkids treat other people with disrespect. Enjoy your week. Blessings.
@@tonidantonio9877 "If they really wanted to make changes it would have happened from within their own culture long ago" -- that's a classic comment and so very true!
@@DAWeeve what they needs is a few italian nonnas there to set their kids straight. 😊
Um, she says in the interview "here in Darwin'. She's not an Alice Springs resident, she was staying in a hotel in Alice Springs. She is also a cosmetic nurse at a laser clinic that visits town, no longer a nurse serving on the 'frontline'. Not to say this stuff doesn't happen, however, let's be clear about the facts.
Cosmetic nurses are registered nurses. Many work for many years
As registered nurses in hospitals and gp clinics and then make the move over because of pay and also ptsd. As it seems in this case.
So no she wasn’t always a cosmetic injector. Secondly we have the statistics to show that childhood sexual abuse is extremely high in both Darwin and Alice Springs and across those remote regions.
@@lifeonmars478 she's since come out having to clarify that she never claimed to be an Alice Springs resident. And that she worked in remote clinics in the top end that have similar problems (but not Alice). Yes, the statistics are horrifying for central Australia. That's not what is being mentioned or what I'm disputing. She is being promoted as a local resident (which she's not) and a frontline worker in Alice Springs (which she's not and never had been). She's also just been sentenced in the Darwin court for fraudulent (unrelated) activity. So not really a reliable source.
I got attacked online yesterday in a racist way and I have never been racially attacked before.. and the attacker didn't know if I was black white or brindle
A dying race due to self destruction.
Not race but culture
This should not be about race , colour of your skin where you live or are from this should only be about individuals making choices and decisions with morals and respect for themselves and all others in this world 🌎.
It should be. But if you are from another country making this observation then there is no comparison to countries where blacks have the opportunity to be educated and enjoy the same lifestyle as whites. It's just not the same in the centre of Australia, or in remote regions. The same opportunities are available to them but they don't want what the white man is offering, they want to live within their tribal laws. Tribal laws and retribution. That makes anything they do that we perceive as criminal, justifiable by tribal law. Many of these people are not educated, because their families don't think it's important. There are those in remote areas that speak only their tribal language or their 'kin' groups. There are hundreds of tribal languages. It really is complicated. Suggesting that we should learn to speak Aboriginal is like suggesting that in Europe we should learn European.
They are making choices and decisions for themselves as far as they are concerned. And within their communities, you must respect their law.
@@margaretarmstrong2445 yep that’s true enough
I lived there for 32 years and the opportunity for aboriginal is huge the will is weak though
ABC has shut down all comments on the Alice Springs reporting good to see sky haven't
She's Making all that up telling lies on television
Where are the Aunties, Uncles and Elders? As well as an alcohol ban throughout the NT, perhaps
these mystical figures may take charge if all dole and royalty payments are suspended until they gain control of the situation which results from their negligence in teaching these youngsters. After all they are supposed role models and senior authorities ...these Aunties, uncles and elders!
Albanese wants to put the CALL OF THE CROWS as his VOICE IN THE CONSTITUTION
Looks nice
Mandatory youth programs in sport, music, arts, film, fishing, agriculture. Alice has all the infrastructure for these programs. World class media company and recording studio. Awesome swimming complex. Art studios. Massive AFL programs and athletic facilities. As for the sexual abuse, I think its just being swept under the carpet. There was a community in Arnham land where they had a total ban on alcohol, petrol sniffin etc and they grew their own pot. Violence became non existent, the men started fishing again and living off the land. The women and children were happy. But the Police came and destroyed all the crop and arrests were made. The community turned to shit again.
I thought for a moment that was going to have a good ending!!!
Military school is an idea
except for the weapons training bit
I was there and I saw the same and worse
Are cosmetic nurses submitting medical reports now?
She’s a registered nurse… all cosmetic injecting nurses hold a nursing degree and work as regular registered before cosmetic injections. Registered nurses are mandatory reporters.
@@lifeonmars478 so are people coming to her injections clinic needing a cure for chlamydia and anal warts?
@@npd6225 do you not hear the part that she worked as a nurse for 14 years? She’s more recently a cosmetic injector…. Do you think she’s maybe reflecting on her experiences as a working nurse over 14 years….

2 Timothy 3
King James Version
3 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as their's also was.
10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
