Reader reaction to the riots From NEWS.com.au readers 12dec05 MORE than 20 people were injured and 16 arrested as race-fuelled violence spread through Sydney's beachside suburbs overnight. A series of apparent revenge attacks - including two stabbings - happened after yesterday's unrest at Cronulla, where more than 5000 people had massed. Drunken mobs within the crowd at Cronulla yelled racist chants and bashed people of Middle Eastern appearance in an extended violent rampage. As the unrest spread overnight, 25 people - including two ambulance officers - had been injured, about 40 cars vandalised and an Australian flag burned. We asked NEWS.com.au readers if they thought the explosion of beach violence was un-Australian, as many public figures have said, and we have been inundated with responses. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some people were stabbed!! How can people just stab each other and not feel guilty about it? Makes me wonder!
