Overstaying Australian arrested after allegedly stealing from tourists in Pattaya

25 years ago, as a young backbacker traveling all over the world, one thing I picked up on pretty quickly was that, for some reason, white male Australians with dreadlocks were almost always untrustworthy. Other Australians could be a mix, but were generally nice people.

If you were in a hostel, instant hierarchies often formed around who looked the coolest and it was often the case that the dreadlock crowd from other countries were pretty cool ... except the Australian ones. If someone's walkman went missing, or someone's food was lifted from the fridge, or if your dry towel was mysteriously used, it was generally your new dreadlocked Aussie friend who did it.

The most painful lesson, however, was around women. If one of these scumbags befriended your group, it wouldn't be long before they started targeting someone else's girl, and mainly by subtlety undermining the guy she was with. It was a slimy pattern I witnessed again and again.

I have no idea why that particular look so reliably attracted scumbags in Australia but not in the UK or America, but it was definitely a thing.

 

About 25 years ago in the UK (some of) the dreadlock (soap-dodgers) brigade were known as New Age Travelers . I knew a guy in our town who kept a baseball bat behind the counter in his liquor store as a deterrent.

I landed at Sydney and immigration asked me if I have a criminal record, ''sorry no'' I replied, ''I didn't realise it was still a requirement''.

irony wasted. land of thieves and not one with an IQ higher than their shoe size. 555

No irony involved in your comment. You are just an idiot. Tell the next Aussie you meet about the land of thieves and the shoe size intelligence. I am sure they will enjoy your quick wit and "irony" as you call it. Be sure to check your pockets after you wake up too.

You can say the same about many countries in Europe now days and Canada where it is hard to spot the original people of said county for the influx of multitude of colors and religions who's soon, to out number the locals...

The joke about Australia is that it was founded by a bunch of criminals. And from 1788 until 1868, Britain did send roughly 164,000 convicts to the land down under. America’s dirty little secret? The same exact thing was happening here. In fact, experts estimate that over 52,000 British prisoners were shipped off to colonial America.

Britain had been shipping convicts to America for decades before they started sending them to Australia. In fact, it was precisely because of America’s fight for independence that the Brits had to start sending their criminals to Australia. But from 1718 until 1775, convict transportation to the American colonies flourished. Some estimates claim that almost 10 percent of migrants to America during this time were British convicts.

The judges of Edinburgh Scotland during the years 1662-1665 ordered the enslavement and shipment to the colonies a large number of rogues and others who made life unpleasant for the British upper class. (Register for the Privy Council of Scotland, third series, vol. 1, p 181, vol. 2, p 101).

 

Many were shipped to the Caribbean but were found to make poor slaves owing to their lack of resistance to tropical diseases and the heat.

During that era the Caribbean was one of most unpopular places to go in the Royal Navy, as you say, malaria etc.

 

Apparently it was said that if you went to India/Bengal you would only survive for 2 monsoons before succumbing.
