Lack of respect and tolerance

It's a bit much to blame the Prime Minister John Howard for the Cronulla riots as Klaas Woldring suggests.

Sure he's to blame if the chooks don't lay, or the cows don't give milk, but riots are a bit out of his ambit, even though he is supposed to be Bush's deputy sheriff.

The troubles at Cronulla go back a way, even to the time Malcolm Fraser was Prime Minister.

So perhaps we can blame Mr Fraser for it all.

The reasons for the trouble at Cronulla are clear cut.

Even Blind Freddy could work it out.

It's about the lack of respect and tolerance.
