Man. It is absolutely crazy over here.
From what I hear, this is the story...
<hearsay>
A group of people were playing soccer on the beach, like they have done
many times before.
The group gets larger and larger as time passes, and it become a little bit
annoying for others on the beach.
<cutdownversion>The life savers ask them to simmer down their game and they
then start beating up the live savers.</cutdownversion>
Cronulla beach has historically had a fairly violent culture with quite
some alcohol and drug (maily dope) consumption.
In the follwoing days/week the locals became quite agressive towards the
group that beat up the life savers, ...
</hearsay>
.... and the rest is on the news...
<hearsay>
Please be aware, that both groups (both sides of the story) are so
completely far from the ideas of the Australian people in general.

I am Australian. Where I was born is irrelevant. My skin colour is
irrelevant. My accent is irrelevant. Where my parents were born is
irrelevant. As an Australian, I was always under the impression that
Australian culture is "whatever you are".
It must just be boredom to behave in the way that these dick heads are
behaving. I can not think of any other reason.
