    I am indigenous. That police officer didnt murder. He shot and killed a man. But it was not murder. The facts as pointed out duting the case were. He ordered the now deceased to drop the weapon. The officer fired when he was lunged at. The local medical centre was closed due to the street violence and repeated break ins. There was no way to provide the emergency aid that was required. The deceased had repeated violent incidents previously. No offence intended. But if someone points a gun and says stop, just stop.

      Michaela please locate the two locals that where tour guides for Spanian so they can request that he make a short individual UA-cam video about your T-Shirt and Merchandise.
      I recommend that you ask Spanian for which brand fits him the best, I suspect it's Under Armour.
      Then, purchase the brand and his size. Gets exact measurements from a tailor then start posting new designs to him.
      Spanian then in future Vlogs will give you a meantion hopefully with a graphic of your Instagram and Website details.
      Michaela, my advice is to get a team of dependable individuals around you as the orders are going to be worldwide. Learn about the cost of Postage and Packaging ALSO Tax Law as Australia 🇦🇺 will ALWAYS want it's cut of your profits.
      Seek advice from the main Post Office Manager for Alice Springs likely in it's City Centre around the cost of delivery on a national and international basis.
      Regarding, tax payments / laws you'll NEED to seek out a number of people as some might WANT to become a partner thus rip you off...!!! Seek, the owner of an successful independent hotel then bar owner and car showroom for a major brand like Ford in Alice Springs.
      Yet, get those two A.S fellas to reach out to Spanian.
      All the best from me in The UK 🇬🇧

      I guess it's good to discuss these things. I think we need to get back to basics, enforce the laws, don't pussy foot around just because people are from a minority group etc. There was a shocking lack of policing going on in that video. They only showed up at the very end.

      @sa25-svredemption98 Місяць тому +22

      @@KM-pq7sr The problem is they can't enforce laws. Police have had most of their effective powers stripped, they are so undermanned that it is a miracle you saw a police officer in the video at all. No-one wants to be a cop in the Territory after the Rolfe case because, even though he was found not guilty (and according to every standard for use of force, every single shot he took was justified because his oppo was being actively stabbed until AFTER the final shot), and it's even put off other Commonwealth armed law enforcement who are under NT jurisdiction (AFP, Border Force, Defence Force - NB, Defence and Border Force are both armed law enforcement on the northern Australian border, but NT based assets actually fall under NT coroner jurisdiction if force is used) from wanting to deal with potentially violent jobs up here because of the utter feeling of betrayal and lack of support when force is required. Especially after the coroners court has basically argued the opposite of what the criminal court found. And, even if force is effectively used and the suspect detained, 99.999% of the time they'll be back out the next week doing exactly the same thing, so why even bother? It's much easier just to let people destroy each other than it is to enforce laws that won't be backed up by the government or the courts. Peace stopped being a part of the Territory years ago - it's just taken this long for other people to realise the fact.

It's not worth risking life and limb to enforce the law when you may end up in jail yourself just for doing your job.
      But the anti Police agenda seems to mainly come from the left wing. Just look at the mess they made in Portland Oregon with the anti Police agenda.

    Regarding aboriginal housing; nearly forty years ago I lived and worked along the Darling River.
    My first week there I was driving outside of Bourke with a few workmates when I commented on the appalling state of the aboriginal housing that solicited a few wry grins and shakes of the head.
    One of the older guys said "See these houses?" pointing at a group of smashed up houses with yards that looked like small garbage tips. [Why it was pleasing for me to see that the residents of that Alice Springs camp obviously take care of their homes and yards]
    My colleague shared that he had helped to build those houses just five years prior.
    The aboriginal occupants had destroyed their own brand new homes, then had the gall to bleat how they lived in deplorable conditions.
    Government can't keep throwing money at indigenous issues. The aboriginal people must be part of the solution for there to be any chance for positive change.

    I think it is important for people who have no idea about Indigenous communities to understand what is a “dry community”. If you live in a “dry community” , the community and the elders have CHOSEN not to have alcohol. If you live in this type of community you are not supposed to drink, you cannot have alcohol in the community or bring it in. You are not supposed to go out of the community and then go back in, drunk. The way it is being portrayed here, for whatever reason, is very disingenuous. The locals are not telling the full story.

I was called so many racist names and given so many threats just because I wouldn't hand over money.

    Incredibly honest portrayal. He speaks about royalties (those guys are smart), he visits town camps, he speaks about pay back and calls it out as an eye for an eye. The highlight is seeing Alice at night, completely raw. Even spanian is warry and can't believe what he is seeing. He misunderstands the banned.drinkers register. He is right to point out it is discriminatory but does not realise it is actually the local elders and communities that want to be dry. A must watch for anyone interested in the territory

      I bet all the women and children who get bashed by drunk partners love the banned drinkers register. As someone with an alcoholic father who grew up in a very similar neighborhood in the late 80's early 90's during the recession, alcohol is literally the Devils Piss. Alcohol should be banned Australia-wide. This country has a drinking problem. Unfortunately, indigenous people are prone to alcoholism in the same way pacific islanders are prone to diabetes - their bodies simply aren't conditioned to it as Europeans have been for thousands of years, same as Islanders with high sugar foods. Anyone who has lived in areas with lots of indigenous folk for long periods of time know that all too well.

Call the cops and drive to the police station. If you get out your car you'll probably be killed or seriously injured by friends/family of whoever got hit." I was a bit skeptical... but seeing this... I dunno man. I could see that shit happenning pretty easily.

      Having experience of life in the outback, I would agree. I had a friend that lived her whole life in Mt. Isa, she was driving home one night and there was a wake at the hotel outside of town. A brawl broke out and spilled onto the road, unfortunately she hit someone, didn't hurt them in any way, but they pulled her out of the car and bashed her within an inch of her life, she was 69 years old. She spent months in the hospital trying to recover, she never did. She no longer felt safe living there as nothing was done and no charges pressed. I know from first hand experience having gone through a stabbing in Sydney involving and indigenous person, she stabbed her partner 7 times with 5 different steak knives, she got a 3 month good behaviour bond.... go figure. I was advised by the Police that if she was white she would have spent at least 15 years in jail. They wonder why we don't treat them as equals.

They were both so chill and friendly and very helpful, also love Stumpz's rad car! 🤙 This was definitely the best Into The Hood episode yet, it was a real eye opener that certainly shone a light on an interesting community which has clearly got more than it's fair share of social problems but also highlighted the community spirit that still exists. Spanian you just keep on raising the bar with these insightful vlogs, you're well and truly the best out there brother!

    I am so sad to see what has happened to the Alice over the years. I lived in Alice and worked at the TV station just behind Todd Mall from 1996-7 and I would finish work when the TV station closed transmission (1-2am in the morning) and walked the 1km back to my home, bought things from the Coles (open 24h/day) and did not feel unsafe at any time during those 2 years. I worked alongside Aboriginal people that I had a great respect for and valued their abilities and dedication to the work we did.
    I visited for 2 nights in 2017 and it had changed so much. It wasn't even quite like the video, but I could see the transition to the lawless town it has sadly become now. The video shows me how everything has deteriorated since my last visit. It used to be Tennant Creek had the bad reputation and The Alice was better, but it may be the situation is now reversed.

      It's sad to c the decline & lack of resources & help. Unfortunately Tennant creek is still as bad, probably worse. There r even fewer resources & less people out there trying 2 fix the problems that lead 2 hopelessness & violence. TC is basically just a stop off 4 fuel 4 most people. People don't usually go there 4 holidays like they do Alice so there's even more lawlessness cos cops r focused on the Alice or elsewhere.

    I had abit of scary do when leaving Alice Springs.. Me n a lass drove out of Alice n filled up at first gas station, with our life in our car.. not long after, a car with blacked out windows drove along side us..then took off.. it was pulled up around a bend on the left..there was a guy stood out of the back door, telling us to pull over..they were 3 guys in the car.. i didnt bother, then the car set off at speed following us.. i ended up flooring my old 2.2 suberu to get away, but couldn't really pull away, this went on all the way to near Tennant Creek.. by that point, i has slowly pulled away, at the same time not blowing my engine..it had dark too,.and was a relief to see their lights slipping further back.. we missed the Devils marbles too..gutted we had to shoot right past them..we ended up pulling into Tennants Creek and waited at a big gas station, before camping in a compound..god knows what would of happened if our car had let us down! I had just recently put a new radiator on it, by myself, so was dreading it was guna blow again😅

      @williamhumes2493 2 місяці тому

      If you heard what happens in the video you can gather that they kill and rob each other based on civil conflict between camps and tribes. What this means is that some families and tribes would have had many years of conflict and history and killing/robbing is apart of that and so when someone like a cop kills one of them it is viewed as bad. Although there are not many ways cops can prevent such violence without intervening. It is not hypocrisy as cops are an external influence. Also it's spelt 'lose' not loose'.

    I use to live in Alice Springs for almost 10 years and funny enough Dane was my old house mate and a family friend! The first few years of living in Alice, in my experience was good. Didn't have any issues with getting broken into, up until my last year of living there. Got to the point where my anxiety would rise when leaving the house for work. The fights and crime got worse each day that goes by and it was scary. It's sad that the media doesn't show and explain what truly happens in that town. I hope that something good will happen for Alice to shine once again.
