It's not just Victoria mate. I think it's the asshole nation that we all now belong to. At the end of the day this behaviour happens because Australia approves, otherwise it wouldnt happen.

I think the saturation of American tv/movies/media has accelerated the increase of this type of anti-social behaviour. Bloody yanks...why can't they bring back wholesome shows like Country Practice?
U could be onto something there CJ

Our whole society is f****d from the grassroots up. Political correctness has gone bad - the apologists party have corrupted both sides where a simple belt across the back of the head may have saved some of our kids lives down the track.
WTF is that soap box icon???

I agree with the comments above, however there is something else that has not been mentioned:
The fact that if someone gets arrested for a violent act when it gets to court, after many adjournments, the judge will let them off without imposing any consequence that resembles the maximum penalty. Not only does this cause people to re-offend, but kids see or hear about this and think 'hey I can do this too'......
What ever happened to 'Do the crime, Do the time'?
I also find that there is an enormous lack of respect. This starts at the adults and filters down through to the children. I know that my kids (which are teenagers) will hold a door open for someone and will get disheartened if that someone does not say a simple Thank you or if someone pushes past or knocks into you that they can't say Excuse me.....where has the use of simple manners gone?
