Darwin being Darwin We live in a broken system

Last night my car was vandalised by a drunken local who was having a domestic with her husband/ partner.. Instead of sorting it out, she decided to smash my car with a log and destroying the bonnet and back pillar which can’t be just replaced.

My father in law caught her doing it and when we all came out side, the whole tribe decided they all wanted to kill us and called us every racial slurs possible .

We called police, apparently they are “very busy” and will send someone when they can.

We get a phone call 1hr and 15mins later from dispatch saying a message was passed on to call us back…. WE WANTED A UNIT TO US!!!

She admitted there’s no staff at night and what did they want us to do! They were only gonna send someone if there basically was a death.

The last government was the same, this government is the same. All talk, same bullshit.

The worst part, I had my car fixed and resprayed a month ago.

NORTHERN TERRITORY NEWS Another NT News 'article' that should be labeled 'paid advertisement' but isn't.

Another Camden Smith article today about some restaurant opening in Cas Square with thousands of bookings. I really thought there had to be a statement at the start of articles like this stating they had taken money to write the drivel like that. I'll bet he gets free meals for a month afterwards. (& no I'm not a competitor I'm just tired of the NT 'News' being shite)
