They never learn.

 Abalone season is on, these aholes just don't seem to give a f*^k. You've raped the ocean in your country not here chums, yeah I'm assumimg race because 90% are Chinese down there going for it. 

As of this afternoon, nine people had been fined $200 for exceeding the bag limit with an additional two copping $1000 “high-tier” fines for attempting to make off with catches well in excess of their quota.

A further 33 people were issued warnings and one person is facing a potential Fisheries prosecution for giving officers a false name.

Labelling a whole race as "aholes" could be construed as racist.

Get yourself to London, Germany or several other European (and possibly Bali - dunno, never been there) cities and check out the reputation white Aussies have...it's embarrasing!

 Didn't label the 'whole race' just the arseholes pilaging the stocks an having utterly no respect for the fishery or the law. 

As for your other comment Meh where'd you get that info? I folow a Thai media website and I know they love Aussies but hate yanks and Russians with a passion.

Sat, 2018-12-08 22:05

Good luck to them if they're doing the right thing. They've paid their licence fees.

For those doing the wrong thing, throw the book at them. Just like those clowns who pull other peoples pots, ugrade their little size dhu to a large one, poach a marron etc.

How many people chasing abs metro? 5000?

5000 x $50 = $250,000 for four hours compliance. I reckon they're paying for the monitoring activities by sea rescue, fisheries etc.

Sun, 2018-12-09 06:31

 

This is an interesting topic,

If only all of these names were printed that would solve the argument once and for all

There are certainly plenty of Asians who do the right thing,

The are plenty of Indigenous who do the right thing,

There are plenty of white Aussies who do the right thing,

However come Abalone season or not, the amount of people who are prosecuted (for abolone) almost always have an Asian name, correct me if you think I am wrong with some facts that will lead me to believe otherwise.

Not for a minute do I think what Andy has said was racist, he simply was voicing his opinion which you are still allowed to do, although the majority of us shut up and say nothing, and gillyL backed him up based on observation.

 Thanks mate, I believe my observations are fact based not racist and I make no apologies.

Not being discriminatory or derogative just saying what I see and what Gilly says is bloody true. So many resources packed into one day or one hour for that fact to ensure the reefs are not raped.

The names might be obtainable through the FOI act, I'll look into this.

And as the original report shows given half a chance it would be stripped bare in a second and sent home with all the baby formula ;)

Who gives a shit about what race they are.. The entire Ab  season is joke.. it’s not cut out for Metro waters.. throw the book at them or make the season southern only. I’ve got plenty of Asian mates that always do the right thing.. so whether you like it or not, you can’t single them  out/generalise

 UPG, What exactly is it

Sun, 2018-12-09 19:22

 UPG,

 

What exactly is it about Sea-Kems observation that entices you to attack him like a shark?

 

I dont agree with Gilly that they were all female chinese because of the way they park, as i'm not sure they are allowed to drive at all over there ( probably something that shouldnt have been bought in here ) 

 

Sea-Kem - Would you say you were close enough to positively identify these offenders as chinese because as all of us know when you take a mask off it can alter your appearance...

 

Did you wait Sea-Kem for say 10 minutes for the suction to subside before coming on here and hating on a race that is taking over a lot of the oceans and now seemingly right here in Perth....

 

Billcollector to be fair its often not the TO's that are the problem but any of their ascendants....

One kid goes on a rampage in the Metro area and something is done about it quick smart. Come to Carnarvon and that shit goes down every day of the week is anything done about it ? . Let’s face it the worlds going to hell in a hand basket and there’s next to nothing that we can do about it.

population gentlemen !!! the continued rising people pressure is what will fark all our fisheries and all else we call our ''culture ''

too many weak pollies concentrating on winning that small shifting vote , making piss weak laws or penalties , and generally bad long term decsions about out collective future

bring back respect
reduce migration
increase personal responsibility in society
bring back corporal punishemnt in schools
stop selling off our land, corporations and raw products to others

we are heading for an invasion by stealth here , humans will always live in tribes .call it how you will but that is afact , any other is a utopian dream that will lead to conflict
