A glimpse of things to come for the rest of Australia .

Extra powers for police. What could possibly go wrong? Coming to city near you.

[@anthonymorris5084]

Peace will break out? Law and order will arrive?

[@MrSoloun]

So yea they'll just go out into suburbs, so now peeps in the suburbs need to fear for their lives, not sure you guys can keep dancing around the issues for much longer.

[@bobbonner1314]

Will it help if we all said Sorry again?........No? Thought not.

NAIDOC week: Blak, loud and proud

[@FTY13]

More like white and proud while ignoring the full bloods in the bush

[@billwhite9703]

The police, the support groups and the elders are divided and at least half of them have no idea of behaviour modification. Only strict control can change this situation. You can still have a fair and friendly approach, but when things erupt you have to take control.

[@maralfniqle5092]

No cops around? Have we now gine the way of the US? No law and order?

Yet another “holiday” for Usual Suspects

[@debe-ol6cg]

The police have this problem all over Australia at varying degrees which affects 'all' people! And this curfew affects 'all' the people. 👪 1st

[@billhesford6098]

Shhh.

[@MickKalkadoon-ze7wz]

Would the same curfew apply if the people bashed were not cops

[@outbak2]

not a chance

[@xwhite2020]

Yes, they curfewed the town a few months back. You do know that so why build an ignorant argument.

[@MartintheTinman]

No, protected tier. Like Politicians

[@outbak2]

@@xwhite2020 there are bashings every week/day and nothing happens. If it was 4 everyday people bashed on the weekend we would not be in a curfew

[@alfal7113]

Maybe more services are needed the ones already there are really working right up to a second curfew in one year......Close them all.

[@billhesford6098]

@@FlyOz-b7b The difference is Melbourne was over a lie. Alice can get very violent when the locals play up.

[@andrewmackenzie325]

Did they read a “welcome to country” before the curfew was announced?
