Caller: Alan, um, just saw some snippets from the news, Channel 9, of the horrendous bashing…
Alan Jones: …appalling
Caller: …or if you like, gang attack on the beach in Cronulla yesterday. I mean what type of grubs do we have in this … (indistinct)
Alan Jones: What kind of grubs? Well, I’ll tell you what kind of grubs this lot were. This lot were Middle-Eastern grubs.
Caller: There we go.
Alan Jones: And, you’re not allowed to say it, but I’m saying it…

Caller: If the police can’t do the job, the next tier is us.
Alan Jones: Yeah, good on you, J…
Caller: Now, my grandfather was an old digger and he used to say to me when we were growing up, ‘Listen, shoot one, the rest will run’.
Alan Jones: [laughing]
Caller: Right?
Alan Jones: …yes [laughing]

Alan Jones: ‘J’ has a good answer, he says police and the council are impotent here all rhetoric and no action. My suggestion is to invite the biker gangs to be present at Cronulla Railway station when these Lebanese thugs arrive, the biker gangs have been much maligned but they do a lot of good things – it would be worth the price of admission to watch these cowards scurry back onto the train for the return trip to their lairs…and wouldn’t it be brilliant if the whole event was captured on TV cameras and featured on the evening news so that we, their parents, family and friends can see who these bastards are…Australians old and new should not have to put up with this scum. Peters of Kensington…

Alan Jones: Yeah, let’s not get too carried away ‘B’, we don’t have Anglo-Saxon kids out there raping women in Western Sydney. So let’s not get carried away with all this mealy-mouthed talk about there being two sides. I can tell you, because my correspondence here from mums and dads I am inundated, and I don’t hear people complaining about Catholics and Protestants and Anglicans, I’m sorry, but there’s this religious element in all of this and we’ve got to make sure that we welcome people into our community but we welcome them in on certain terms and certain standards and those standards are not being met. So let’s not have this mealy mouth talk about oh well, everyone’s to blame. All across Sydney there is a universal concern that there are gangs, the gangs are of one ethnic composition…

I am not going to get involved in comments on individual decisions, but let me say this: I think Alan Jones is an outstanding broadcaster. I don’t think he’s a person who encourages prejudice in the Australian community, not for one moment, but he is a person who articulates what a lot of people think.
