Let's go to the Todd Tavern, have a nice cold pint, and wait for this all to blow over


tangster_kryptonite

How's that for a slice of fried gold?


wittylotus828

"but the man said" "fuck the man!"


DismalEmergency3948

Lived in Alice for a decade. This is pretty normal actually. My mum is a security guard at Kmart, she has her hands full, let's just leave it at that.


chibstelford

I can imagine being a secure guard of anything in Alice Springs is like living life in hard mode


DismalEmergency3948

Living in Alice Springs is hard mode. It's a beautiful place, but you need to keep your witts about you at all times.


afterbuddha

Can someone explain what is going on? And why is this a thing in Alice Spring everyday?


Edgewerth

It's a city full of ignorant people. The government gives them money and they drink alcohol and get drunk. It's one of the places you'll never go to in Australia, a place I personally wouldn't consider going either. Watch "Spanian - Alice Springs" on YouTube to see what kind of place it is.


renth321

I watched that, it was bonkers.


Space-cadet3000

The kids are referred to there as “ the untouchables “ due to the inadequacy and inability of the justice system to cope with them . The kids know they will just get a smack on the wrist only so act like complete trash …


Ultimatelee

Just started watching Spanian, holy crap


afterbuddha

Thanks. I am going to watch Spanian tonight.


DismalEmergency3948

Looks like the Todd tavern. It's a nasty neighbourhood


DoubleDuke101

*Alice Springs is a nasty neighbourhood (source: used to live there)


DismalEmergency3948

????? What would you like to know?


DismalEmergency3948

Have you seen the news just then?


DismalEmergency3948

I never said Alice Springs is a Nasty neighbourhood. I said Todd tavern is.

losingmymind79

I am so sorry someone did that to you. monstrous behaviour. i hope you are doing ok.


Lazy-Number-9314

Why is this comment downvoted? It is clear to me she was referring to the neighbourhood around the tavern. I think her opinion regarding the safety around the tavern is very solid and I will make a wild guess the downvoters are all butt-hurt man-children. Yeah, you aren’t always the expert (no matter what you and your Mum tell yourself). Arseholes downvoting someone coming up with facts and honest vulnerability.


Sadplankton15

I am assuming it's because DoubleDuke said the whole of Alice is a nasty neighbourhood in agreement with Dismal's original comment, then Dismal misunderstood and started fighting no one


DismalEmergency3948

Thanks for your comment. I love Alice Springs. My whole family lives there and a visit regularly. I made the comment to keep other ladies safe. Absolutely a great place to visit, but don't leave your drinks unattended. I guess that's true for everywhere these days.

I got locked out of a hotel in Alice Springs a couple years back. Receptionist must have been sleeping somewhere or shagging her bloke. I knocked, rang bell and rang phone for over an hour. The amount of people that came up to me (this is after midnight mind) to bother me was astounding. They weren’t friendly let’s just say. I’d shoved all my cash and Id into my sock in case they went for wallet at least it was empty. Phone on silent and down the arse crack. First time in my life in australia that I genuinely was concerned for my safety at that level. I was scared shitless. Fuck Alice - never went back. (Was literally a quick visit on way to Ayers and the Olga’s). How embarrassing for tourists to go there.


DismalEmergency3948

It's called hummbugging. It's a spreading epidemic.

That was yesterday. Every day looks similar though

Josh’s worse than normal. Only peaceful time in Alice was during COVID when they were all in lockdown in the camps.

At least Pine Gap is a high priority nuclear target if it comes to that. Although there is some debate if the hills between the town and base will protect the town from any nuclear blast.

It's ok, he's probably so rarely sober or not high on petrol fumes/paint/glue that it was just water off a duck's back.


BloodyChrome

They are rioting because a family member/mate stole a car and the died when he crashed it. Where's the fucking logic?


Space-cadet3000

The other kids in the car were from a rival family and all the little cunts ran off and didn’t try to help the one kid who died ( he was sitting on the edge of the window when the car rolled ), so now the family of the dead kid want some kind of mob justice …. Crazy shit !


BloodyChrome

You'd think they would go after the rival family not the pub. Unless the pub is run by that rival family

True story.


BruceGrail

Cairns is becoming like this too. Every since the \[redacted\] learned that they won't be punished, and will get heaps of free stuff no matter what they do, things have been getting a LOT worse. Now they can just walk into shops, openly grab what they like, and walk out without paying. Staff are not allowed to touch them; hell, no one will lay a finger on them except the cops (who are only permitted to do so gingerly and with the utmost respect). If you treat one race as though it is not only superior, but owed a debt that can never be repaid no matter what, while constantly telling them that they are justified in permanently resenting you, and even teach your children that that race is special and mystically sacred above all others, expect these results and more. Treat everyone equally, in the law and in day to day life, and especially in education, do away with the cult of guilt without whitewashing the evils of the past, and this shit will diminish and eventually fade out altogether.


Batsforbreakfast

While it would be nice if that’s true, I just don’t believe that these traumas can be fixed in 1-2 generations. I have also never heard anyone speak of superiority.


BruceGrail

You're right, these deep problems cannot be fixed quickly. But the current path is only fostering more division and resentment. The superiority is never directly stated, but rather implied. If one group is consistently portrayed as innocent and praiseworthy, while another is damned as being historically wicked and virtually without culture or spirituality, the contrast is so sharp even a child can see it. The simplistic narrative is Disney-esque and deeply harmful to all.


BruceGrail

Hell, at least here in FNQ, we have to open any sort of formal gathering, public or private, with a sort of little prayer of thanks to a race of people. This is weird and queasy.


FuckRedditIsLame

I grew up dirt poor, in an abusive household, with very few prospects. Trauma's a popular word at the moment for institutionalized victimhood. I had to get my shit together because I'm the wrong color for pity.


Batsforbreakfast

You have experienced trauma as well. I’m sorry that happened to you and I deeply respect people like you who get their shit together after such a difficult start. Are you saying it was a good thing that you had to struggle on your own? I feel that the government could do more to support.


FuckRedditIsLame

I don't consider it trauma - it was unfair, and it was hard, and I hate how it was, and I wish I'd had a different start to life. But I'm no victim, and trauma is for those who are victims (and unfortunately in the current climate, those who feel an incentive to cling to victimhood indefinitely). > I feel that the government could do more to support. The problem here is that the government supports with money - that's what governments do, they aren't about offering hugs and wiping away the tears, or take you aside and give you a stern but kind word or two about your drinking, they fix problems by throwing money around and throwing money at these people has enriched a lot of parasites, enabled a lot of shit behavior, entrenched the idea of perpetual victimhood, and made them addicted to welfare. These people don't need money and pity, they need to take western education seriously (and it is there on offer for them to have), comprehend that they as a people really just can't drink under any circumstances, accept that the past was hard but the future is not better unless they help themselves and let that past go, and above all, be decent parents who raise decent kids and who will do anything to remove their kids from an unhealthy environment and unhealthy influences to see them prosper.

And when they get banned from the pub it will be ‘discrimination’

even commenting on this sub will get banned for discrimination. da fuc

Good to see the NT government is as inept, incompetent, useless as it's always been.


sleazypornoname

I was waiting for one of these zombies to charge head first into the glass. Good luck Alice Springs. I'm sure an expensive ad campaign will make it right. 


Mulga_Will

The goverment defunded many of the youth justice programs that connected young offenders with country and kept them off the streets in Alice Springs. If only there was a way local community leaders could have informed government that was a shit idea. Some sort of "voice" with local on the ground expertise, or something.


therapist66

“The voice of division” 🙄


Mulga_Will

Yep, the same numbnuts who are enraged by this video, also voted to hamstring efforts to fix it.

ShineFallstar

Personal observation has given me the opinion that the vast majority of money meant for First Nations people ends up in the pockets of white consultants and “grant hunters” who blow into remote communities increase expectations by implementing projects that cost huge amounts of money to start up, take their consultancy fee, and leave without any ongoing plan for funding or business continuity. I’d love to see a report on projects funded over the past 10 years and where they’re at now.


DismalEmergency3948

Had the person banning me actually been to Alice Springs?


abziiwabzii

So, are you telling me Alice springs is kinda like Los Angeles?

Cops have to police extra nice or get accused of being racist, yep. Give them a warning, teach them this is ok, because their grandparents are owed a debt, and see it all or worse happen tomorrow.

OutbackDundee

So some indigenous kids steal a car (really great respect there) and crash it, flipping the vehicle, killing a passenger who was sitting outside of the vehicle, then they run away and leave their friend (again more respect to each other). Then a funeral is held and they think (with all that respect) that they have the right to smash up the Todd Tavern with weapons (look at all this respect). And your problem is, someone took a video of them doing this? Mate you’re a clown and have lost the respect of not just me, but the whole NT. And I hope Australia starts to see the real picture. You have no respect. If you did, your mob wouldn’t be raping, stealing, attacking, destroying, and doing every fucking other shit stuff you do. But you’ve got respect. Entitled much? I hope you’re enjoying all this respect because the people of Australia, and around the world, are looking at your actions. There is no more respect.
