How does it prove that they're all rednecks?

WIKI said:
The typical redneck lives in a trailer or old weatherbeaten farm house in a rural area, and drives an old, large, beat-up pickup truck, possibly adorned with the Confederate Battle Flag, with a gun rack in the rear window. He may wear a "Wifebeater" (slang, white sleeveless shirt), and/or a farmer t-shirt. He also wears blue jeans, a baseball or trucker hat. Rednecks like boot cut jeans, and the jeans of redneck men often have a permanent circle on the back-pocket from carrying a can of dipping tobacco, such as Skoal or Copenhagen. Their hair is often worn in the mullet style, or in a military style haircut. He is also prone to swearing, perhaps not as much as the stereotypical Yankee, but more than other Southerners, Westerners, or Appalachians.

A redneck is stereotypically imagined as consuming mass produced American beer such as Budweiser or Miller by the case. Other beverages might include Moonshine, Pabst Blue Ribbon (in more traditional settings), as well as Jack Daniel's whiskey.

Stereotypical hobbies include hunting, fishing, riding 4-wheelers and snowmobiles, and watching professional wrestling, Stock car racing, and monster truck rallies. Rednecks are characteristically fond of repairing car engines and collecting junked cars on their lawns.

Country and Southern Rock bands such as Lynyrd Skynyrd figure in as their preferred genre of music. Redneck men also listen to other Southern Rock and Metal such as the Allman Brothers, ZZ Top, Ted Nugent, Alice In Chains, Pantera, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Limp Bizkit, Black Sabbath, Ratt, Motörhead, Bad Company and Guns n' Roses.

Redneck females are generally portrayed as sexually promiscuous. The typical redneck female is portrayed as unsophisticated and unstylish, often with scraggly long hair that is rarely cut. "Daisy dukes" are a name for the extremely small shorts worn by Daisy Duke, on the wildly popular television program "The Dukes of Hazzard".

Rednecks are often portrayed as lacking education or being ignorant.

now, who's to say that these life guards - who are notoriusly authoritiran wanna-be cops - didn't spoke it up and started it, by kicking these lads off the beach cos they were 'taking up too much space' or some shit. more like they wanted to get rid of the 'wogs'; it wouldn't surprise me.

wtf are you talking about, security guards are wanna be cops, do life guards carry batons and utility belts and crap. no, they carry flotation devices and resuce boards.

most of the time they dont care about whats happening on the beach and instead the water.

how do you know the lebs weren't intimidating people while playing soccer, or that they were doing it in the way of people already on the beach.

I haven't read through all 99 pages of this thread but I do think that this racially fuelled rioting and shit-stirring from both parties (both the "white anglo's" and the "lebs") is fucking wrong.

The riot in Cronulla against those of Middle eastern appearance was based on nothing but a generalisation of a whole culture and not a recognisation of minorities within community/society/cultures. It is complete bullshit and it fucking disgusts me.

Sure, a couple of "Aussie" life savers were bashed up by Lebanese men, but if a group of Lebanese men were bashed up by life savers, would this have gotten media coverage? I fucking think not! The media is fucked, if this situation had been represented as "people bashing up people" instead of "White people getting bashed up by Lebanese people", we might not have all this destruction and "terrorism" (yes, terrorism - people i've spoken to are fucking SCARED to leave their houses) going on. That, the situation would not be as bad.

Bashing innocent beach goers of cultural descent and causing such a stir (riot rather) about encouraging "white nationalistic pride" is not going to do anything but encourage a fucking retaliation from the Middle-Eastern community, especially the minority who may be troubled individuals already.

Why not?
It could stop anyone joining the thread from asking repetitive questions that have been explained in depth already

maybe lebo people bashing whites wont get on the news, because it happens so offen. And the lifesavers were doing their job, the lebs were not doing anything but harrassing them. there is a difference

If it happened so often, then why did this specific incident just happened to get on the news? And how exactly do we know that the lifesavers weren't also harassing the "lebs", the media makes it out that the "lebs" have been harassing the lifesavers. Who fucking knows what went on that day the lifesavers were bashed... It doesn't make a difference, because the main point is, all this racial hate is wrong when it is directed towards a whole ENTIRE race, when there is only a minority that is causing the trouble.

I'm with you, ignoring obvious cross-cultural problems is the way to solve this! Also, I agree, the media is biased and only reports crime against white people lol, I mean when was the last time you heard about white people doing anything wrong on tv rofl. Also rofl yeah, people being proud of being white is a big problem in Australia, despite the number of white people here. They should be made to feel constantly bad about it, because they don't have the minority card up their sleeve rofl! I also agree roffles, white people shouldn't do shit then non-white people wouldn't do shit, haha, so in summary the white people are in the wrong lol! lol just think if world war 2 was reported as "people killing other people" nobody would have even known there was a war on rofl and everyone would have stayed at home!!!1

On a serious note, what's this "cultural descent" shit? Who exactly *isn't* of a cultural descent, of one form or another, or is this another way to leave whitey out because he's already had it his way for centuries? Speaking of generalisations, you seem to be very strongly against this evil "nationalistic pride" business. I mean, I know that everyone who is proud of where they come from is going to go out and act like a bogan, get drunk and beat people with different coloured skin, but honestly...

The situation would not be as bad if we didn't tolerate morons in our country, regardless of other factors. Yes it has been exacerbated by media insensitivity, but I think it's ridiculous to blame this for the fact that people think violence is a valid means to prove a point. The situation would not be as bad if "Individuals of middle eastern appearance" and "apparent neo-nazi white national pride militant roffles militia members" were taught that there is no place in this country for stupidity of this degree.

You can dance around and explain that they're terribly upset because their heroic lifesavers got beaten up, or take the other side and explain that it's because of feeling alienated by the (white) man's constant treading you into the ground, but what it comes down to is that this shit just isn't going to fly, and that the sooner everyone involved realises this, the better. Differences in culture are not a valid reason for persecution, and that goes both ways. Hiding the fact that a group of (x race) people are having a shitfight with (y race) people does little to educate the public, it's avoiding the problem. Instead of blaming the media for reporting this fact, it'd be far more constructive to ponder ways for them to provide education and information about other cultures in order to promote tolerance and understanding.
