    And that is the problem
    It is across the whole NT and north WA including Broome.

    Travellers have to be vigilant, and there are places where it is too dangerous to travel through.

    Charging former copper Rolfe with murder after he shot Walker
    was an advertising sign.
    Many police took heed and left the force.
    the Aboriginals are now beyond the law.

    As locals welcomed the curfew,
    Aboriginal legal people said it was over-policing.

    However, the North Australian Aboriginal Justice Agency condemned the move as a "short-sighted fix".

    The organisation’s principal legal officer Jared Sharp pointed to the Todd Tavern incident, which is understood to have occurred during the day and also involved adults.

    He said the underlying drivers of crime and offending are "complex" and "over-policing is not the solution".

    "A youth curfew will not address the very real challenges facing Alice Springs and surrounding communities – it's nothing more than a short-sighted quick fix that demonises young people and risks inflaming tensions and escalating problems," he said.
