Australia: Muslim avoids jail for sex attacks on beach due to “cultural differences”

Apr 29, 2017 3:13 pm By Robert Spencer

“The judge accepted that seeing girls in bikinis is different to the environment in which he grew up.”

The Qur’an says: “O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves of their outer garments. That is more suitable that they will be known and not be abused. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.” (33:59) The implication there is that if women do not cover themselves adequately with their outer garments, they may be abused, and that such abuse would be justified.

To what extent will Australian authorities be willing to set aside Australian law for these “cultural differences”? At what point is an immigrant expected to know and respect the laws and mores of his new country? Or would that be “Islamophobic”?

“The teenager was initially charged as an adult because he had no birth records from Afghanistan.”

If there are no birth records from Afghanistan, how do they know now that he is a minor?

“Teenager avoids jail for sex attacks due to ‘cultural differences,'” Yahoo7 News, April 26, 2017:

A teenager who immigrated to Australia from Afghanistan has escaped jail after a series of sex attacks because he grew up in a different culture.

The court heard the teenager, who cannot be named, pleaded guilty to assaulting eight women and girls on a Surfers Paradise beach in January 2016.

The judge accepted that seeing girls in bikinis is different to the environment in which he grew up….

“Teen who groped Surfers Paradise swimmers avoids jail,” by Tom Forbes, ABC.net.au, April 25, 2017:

A teenager who groped eight women as they swam at one of Queensland’s busiest beaches has been placed on two years’ probation by a Gold Coast judge.

The Afghan-born 17-year-old, who cannot be identified because he committed the offences as a juvenile, spent two hours grabbing women, aged between 15 and 24 years, as he swam between the flags at Surfers Paradise Beach on January 16 last year….

The teenager was initially charged as an adult because he had no birth records from Afghanistan.

He was sentenced today as a juvenile in the District Court at Southport after pleading guilty to nine charges of sexual assault and three charges of common assault….

Judge David Kent heard the Victoria-based defendant grabbed his victims on their bottoms, breasts and, in three cases, their vaginas.

Crown prosecutor Nick McGhee said the defendant was seen swimming up to his victims “in quite a predatory manner”.

When questioned by the lifeguard on duty, the defendant allegedly said: “If I just say sorry, can we forget all about it?”

During sentencing, Judge Kent accepted the teenager grew up in difficult circumstances in Afghanistan and his father died in 2011….

      of course, that would be the actually right thing to do … but also ‘Islamophobic’ … which is an oxymoron in itself, as fear of Islam is anything but unreasonable ….

      Were people ‘Nazi-phobic’ during WWII?

      Were Americans ‘Communist-phobic’?

      No. Quite reasonable fears, evils that needed to be fought against.

      I am anti-Islam.

        Ignorance of the law is no excuse.
        That principle is part of the law.
        By failing to uphold it the judge is in dereliction of his duty.

          Never thought about that.

          Even we, who grew up in this world, can’t use “I didn’t know that was the law.” if we found we inadvertently broke some law.

          Any of us saying that, were told so by the Judge.

      • Jeanette says

        Apr 30, 2017 at 10:55 am

        He’s guilty of several sexual attacks – he’s ALREADY a sexual predator, not one in the making.

          Very true.

        • Oliver says

          May 1, 2017 at 4:32 pm

          if it ( as the article seems to imply) ALL of the attacks were the same day- I agree he is a predator, but not charged as being one-as these cases (I am guessing that all were combined in one–my view, ALWAYS a mistake. Less expensive, but, if lose one, lost.

          if try each separately, lose one, go to the next one

      • Peggy says

        Apr 30, 2017 at 10:54 pm

        Is he registered as a sex offender? Very doubtful.

          In Australia the prosecutor can appeal. Wuestion.

      So growing in ‘difficult circumstances’ and because ‘his father died in 2011’ all these factors made him grope and assault women on the beach?
      I guess he was mourning on the beach at the time.
      Judge himself should be convicted along with the assailant.

      Does this mean that a person coming from Papua New Guinea where cannibalism is a norm ( although attempted to be eradicated) kills and eats someone, that they will get the same tolerance as a rapist from Afganistan?

    Look at how this punk is playing the system! First, he tries to manipulate the life-guard, knowing that apologizing and pretending remorse takes you a long way in the sappy West. Then he tootles on the judge, bringing up his youth (did they do a scientific study of his age — teeth, bone x-rays, etc?) and the piece-de-resistance-breaking: no daddy and his hard-knock life. Oh boo hoo!
    See this case as an object lesson, you racist-feminist louts! This male judge sees a way to look sympathetic and yet reward someone who is doing what the judge would like to get away with. As long as you pick only on white men, sooner or later, they will just go islam. And you won’t say a thing, because you’ll be dead, or just another muslim cow. Moo.
    Send the kid back to Afghanistan and stuff the judge in the kid’s luggage.

      utis, this judge is a dhimmi fool, but your implication that what he really wants to do is molest women on the beach is baseless calumny.

      The fact is that most men in the West are civilized, and have no inclination to rape women.

        I don’t have the data to argue against that, but the strength of the porn industry indicates there is a lot of suppressed fantasizing about it in the West. It’s reasonable to believe perversion and uncontrolled animal behavior are equitably distributed among humans; wearing a judge’s robe doesn’t mean your fantasies are pure.

          Some ( about 10 or 12–I THINK– a judge in Florida (Tampa Bay area- to be a bit more specific) (civil court, not criminal, although often the judges rotated-civil to criminal and back, etc) was ” asked to retire” or ‘resign” from the bench-he used the court computer to view hard core porn.

          (That was part of the reason, the other part- the porn had viruses and infected the all of the computers in that particular building, which also houses other government agencies).

          (Disclosure-although not required-in a professional manner, on behalf of a client, I had been before this judge, who had been retired and came back-when asked to-because of court overloading– and I found him to be a compassionate, and just human being. He tried to help the little person.—This was a civil matter-not criminal. He took his time, listened to everyone, and came back with a decision that all were able to live with. he was not vindictive- and both sides thanked him for his courtesy and compassion and willingness to see all sides.)

          utis, most men in the West are *not* assaulting women.

      • Peggy says

        May 1, 2017 at 9:52 pm

        There is no need for judges to molest girls on the beach because they have access to anything they want behind closed doors.
        I’ve heard from a reliable source that the higher they are the more perverted they are.
        Too many people in high places are very much perverted so no wonder they feel empathy towards some sickos and give out light sentences.
        The only difference is that they can pay for their fantasies.

    Decades ago, I knew two brothers, who were 1/2 Irish catholic and 1/2 Muslim- and practiced neither. They were both merchant seamen. They both spoke several dialects of Arabic.

    They were on an oil taker, that was to be loaded in an Arab (Muslim) country. They told their crew mates DO NOT SPEAK TO OR TOUCH A LOCAL WOMAN, ESPECIALLY IF SHE IS WEARING (a garbage bag). One seaman, went to a woman, spoke to her in English, which she apparently did not understand, and when she didn’t respond, he grabbed her- breast; and with his other hand lifted her (garbage bag) to grab her vagina.

    He was returned to the ship, with his schlong in his mouth (obviously dead) and with a note, as to what he had done.

    To me, that IS A LITTLE EXTREME- BUT PERHAPS THAT SHOULD BE DONE TO MUSLIMS IN CIVILIZED PLACES THAT ATTACK WOMEN.

      • gravenimage says

        May 1, 2017 at 12:24 am

        I also doubt many seamen go around assaulting women.

        They would definitely chat them up and ask them out, maybe even a bit aggressively–but they could get in trouble in a lot of places, not just Muslim ones, if they regularly attacked women. I find this anecdote a bit suspect. Who claimed they assaulted a Muslim woman? The Muslims who murdered him?

        I live in a Navy town with one of the biggest ports in the country, and there is no epidemic of women being assaulted by seamen here. There’s a bit of a problem with prostitution here, but that is a very different matter.

          There was -as I recall- a note (in Arabic) with details.

          And, otherwise, other seamen form the ship listened to the two brothers AND THEIR INSTRUCTIONS, ( do not speak to, or touch the native women) and none were bothered.

          They went to restaurants, etc sight seeing ( whatever there was to see) and back to the ship. There was no reason to pick this person out of all of the others, and others all left alone.

No we can not and we won’t, but obviously the leftists/liberals/feminists can,

    You should read the koran and see what is awaiting you and us. Look at what you did. You all sold out your countries and your own people. With your “due to cultural differences” within this “peaceful religion” But their plans were so smart, but you were too dom to see it, and you are probably in “high places” in organisations, councils or governments, and studied for it, God help us all and I am so glad that we have aGodChrist who is LOVE, Muslims and us are at least a 1000 years apart. We don’t want to be conquered or killed any more, neither do we want to do that ourselves.

    This is how Marxist theory that “educated” people learn in our institutes of higher brainwashing is killing the West. They learn that everyone is really just a product of their environment, that there is no free will, so criminals are really themselves victims of circumstance and that mitigates any guilt. Thus, terrorists are victims of Western imperialism or Zionism or the Big Bad White Man, or maybe they just come from a culture where molesting women is acceptable. And, of course, there are no inferior cultures because cultures can be victims of circumstance too, like Western imperialism, Zionism or Big Bad White Men.

    Apr 29, 2017 at 4:30 pm

    -He didn’t know better– he was unaccustomed to and overwhelmed by all that female flesh.
    -He was having one of those sexual emergencies.
    -He had a rough childhood, he said he was sorry, he won’t do it again, etc etc.

    Multiple interchangeable excuses for uncivilized behavior. The muslim perp is always the victim of this or that. Judges such as this are only interested in dispensing ‘social justice’ and appearing tolerant; they don’t give a fig about law or any oath they swore.
    Any creep doing this at a neighborhood pool would be rightly called out as a perverted danger to females, and possibly beaten by an angry husband or bf.

    If the Muslim teen is not to be blamed, or to be blamed less, due to “cultural differences” that the judge believes teaches a young man that it is okay to sexually assault large numbers of non-Muslim females, then who is responsible? This particular judge did not suddenly discover the “cultural differences” defense. It’s been used for many years in the West, inside and outside of legal contexts. Clearly the authorities who allowed the young man and many more like him into the country are partly to blame for this. We’ve been seeing reports like this for many years now. The authorities who are controlling which immigrants the West should accept are well aware of the higher violent crime rates, including for rape, among Muslim males. Despite this, they continue to bring in Muslims at disproportionately high percentages, while smearing and threatening anyone who disagrees with this insanely suicidal policy.

    • gravenimage says

      Apr 29, 2017 at 8:12 pm

      Yes–if the “cultural differences” are so great, then Muslims must be told all the barbarous things they cannot do in the civilized West when they enter–and deported immediately if they violate any of these laws.

      Of course, that would be considered “Islamophobic”, as well…

      • RodSerling says

        Apr 29, 2017 at 10:56 pm

        Hi Graven,

        I’m implying that someone wanting to immigrate to Australia (or any other sensible country of destination) who cannot be held legally responsible for his actions should not be let into the country in the first place. If a “cultural environment” is legally recognized as so corrupting as to render a young person incapable of knowing that rape or sexual assault is wrong, then from that point forward, no one else from that cultural environment should be allowed into the country.

        The Australian (or other Western country’s) authorities cannot have it both ways. Either people from a certain country of origin can be held legally responsible or they cannot. If they cannot, then it would be reckless, at best, for Australian authorities to knowingly and deliberately allow in immigrants from Afghanistan. The defense that ‘you can’t judge everyone from Afghanistan (or a certain culture) by the behavior of one’ is not (logically) available, because the judge has included in his ruling, the assumption that someone from that environment would not know that rape and sexual assault are wrong.

        If an immigrant can be legally excused from a horrendous crime due to cultural environment in the country of origin, then immigrants from that cultural environment should not be allowed into Australia (or other Western country). To allow in people who cannot be held criminally responsible for their actions is an obvious recipe for chaos.

        The implications of this reasoning are broad and should be included in the case against immigration of Muslims into non-Muslim countries generally. I can’t actually think of any Muslim-majority countries on the planet that have a “cultural environment” that would prepare immigrants from said countries to live harmoniously with non-Muslims. But here we are talking about whether such immigrants can even be held legally responsible for committing serious sexual assaults, with a judge arguing that they can’t (or not to the same degree as anyone else). If they can’t, then they should not be allowed in.

        • RodSerling says

          Apr 30, 2017 at 4:19 pm

          Thanks PRCS.

          The changes include a set of questions about “inappropriate attitudes.” I don’t think answers to a series of such explicit questions will work to screen out Islamic supremacists and potential thugs generally. Those who take the test, whether they fail or pass it, can communicate to their family and friends back in the country of origin about its contents. The questions essentially telegraph what immigration officials consider acceptable. The whole thing–the questions and the other aspects involving monitoring of employment etc.–looks time-consuming, expensive, and risky for the Western host countries.

          I think a better criterion is not what people say but the actual condition of the “cultural environment” in the country of origin. Until the cultures of origin start to much more closely resemble (to some critical extent) Western countries in terms of laws, human rights, substantive changes to education content and mosque sermons, and so on, the members of these cultures should not be allowed in. Those changes may take decades, or centuries, or may never happen. By banning immigration from those countries we can at least ensure that our countries are not the testing grounds for Islamic cultural reform. The countries of origin should be the testing grounds, not the destination Western countries. Let them do the work, let them spend the enormous amount of time and money to make these changes. Let them take the heavy risks. Let them use their soldiers to fight their jihadists. Until they’ve achieved these things,* there is no sensible basis for allowing them into the country.

          *Even if they have achieved many of these things, the persistence of the Islamic project and its “attitudes and atmospherics” (as Hugh calls them) should not be underestimated. Turkey is a case in point.

        We can’t use “cultural differences” to get us out of trouble there why do we allow others to use that here?
        Would a western man be allowed to use that defence in a Muslim country if he started chatting up one of their females? Can he simply say how it’s fine in his country? Would a couple be allowed to show affection in public to one another while there even though it’s fine here?

    Australia: Muslim avoids jail for sex attacks on beach due to “cultural differences”
    ………………………..

    Suicidal dhimmitude. Muslims have been assaulting women at the beaches in Australia since at least the Cronulla Riots in 2005.

    More:

    The teenager was initially charged as an adult because he had no birth records from Afghanistan.

    He probably *is* an adult. So many of these Muslim “youth” are.

    “To what extent will Australian authorities be willing to set aside Australian law for these “cultural differences”?”

    They already do.

    Those women will never feel comfortable or fully safe at a beach for years to come, whenever they spot a Muslim, or anyone with that Arab/North African/Central Asian style look about them.

    He should be getting deported,but we know that won’t happen. So its time to make the consequences something that no-one is prepared to suffer..

    If he gets out and so much as leers at a Western female ever again, deport him and deport every single Afghani in this country who is remotely related to him. Watch the self-policing begin then!

    And if he ever pulls a stunt of any kind like this again, then that Judge deserves to be struck off the bar, made to pay heavy financial compo to his victims before and his new victim/s now and should suffer a prison sentence as well. The Judiciary will stop with the nonsense sentencing that is so out of touch with the general community expectations we have, when they have to be held to account for the decisions they make.

    This Afghani idiot does what he wants – like most of them do – because they come from primitive, savage culture’s that are simply not equal to ours. They come from failed state’s where the rule of law is corrupted and pointless to respect and follow. They view women as meat, corruption as nothing but a day’s honest work and Islam as the key that needs to overrun their new home country in order to make it ‘great’.

    Why these people are considered to be assets to our country, I genuinely do not know. They are parasitical leeches. Consuming everything in their path, stubbornly resisting change and evolution. We do not need them here.

It has nothing to do with what country he is from and he knows it. His lawyer probably told him to say something like that so that he could get off.

    The Australian government although not socialist, has a progressive as its leader and he is doing his best to aid and abet the barbarians of Muhammad. The LNP has not been really conservative for well over two decades and is following the “New World Order” program to a “T”. “Ohh but they stopped the boats!”. Yes they did but have a look at the LEGAL immigration of muslims and the way the universities and all government agencies kowtow to the demands of muslims. We are following Canada here and yet the socialist/green alternative is even worse. Certainly there is a third choice but the splintering of what now seem the very likely anti-islam common view by multiple idiotic small parties popping up like weeds will destroy any chance of being a true alternative.

    Giving rationales as to why the judge’s decision is absurd is missing the mark. From a Commonwealth of Nations perspective the judge was intergrating International Law with Australian stautory law. The British decided to play with Western Law thirty years ago. They determined that since the definition of any word or law or regulation was diferent in prospective or ratioale, in any location on the earth, the best procedure was to leave the final mitigation and penalty in the hands of the judge. So the EU and Commonwealth judges are allowed to make up law on the spot. As bizzare as it seams – in their minds – there is a method to their madness. Britain’s Fabian Socialists are responsible for this. It is thier wsy of absolution from sin through a distorted view of righteousness (proper judgment). U.S. LAW is Constitutional and Common and is developed on specific definitions and mitigated by contemporary understanding and the reasonable culpibility of a defendent. International Law is subjective and left to the wisdom or lack thereof a magistrate.

People whose faith (islam) obligates them to deliver the host nation into house of islam! It’s a suicide wish to allow muslim immigration!
