ANOTHER AFRICAN ATTACK, NOW ON AUTISTIC BOY

The importation of Sudanese refugees has been a disaster: "A Melbourne mother [said]  her 17-year-old son Jayden, who has autism, was riding the bus home from his girlfriend’s house ... when five thugs approached him and demanded his Nike sneakers. '[The]  boys had kicked Jayden to the head and his head smashed up against the window.'"

The importation of Sudanese refugees has been a disaster, not least for victims of the subsequent crime wave in Melbourne.

The latest:

A Melbourne mother whose son was beaten on a bus by a gang of youths said she is devastated that he has lost his independence.

Tess told 9NEWS her 17-year-old son Jayden, who has autism, was riding the bus home from his girlfriend’s house in Tarneit on Saturday when five thugs approached him and demanded his Nike sneakers.

"[The bus driver] told me that the boys had kicked Jayden to the head and his head smashed up against the window of the bus," she said...

Jayden said he tried to ignore the group, but was tormented...

The group are described as African in appearance.

The violence from some Sudanese is quite astonishing. It's as if they feel they belong to another tribe completely, owing nothing to anyone else:

Sudanese make up just 0.11 per cent of Victoria's population but 4.8 per cent of aggravated burglary offenders.

That makes them 44 times more likely to break the law.

Then there are these statistics: Sudanese youths were vastly over-represented in the 2015 data, responsible for 7.44 per cent of home invasions, 5.65 per cent of car thefts and 13.9 per cent of aggravated robberies, despite Sudanese-born citizens making up about 0.11 per cent of Victoria's population.
