AWARENESS = PREVENTION..
Not only can the MAKO/Files online be used by the Australian PUBLIC to better
protect themselves and their CHILDREN/ families from proven sex offenders,
they have many other benefits, including..
DETERRING
some offenders = yet another form of prevention..
+ being a useful resource
for Australian and overseas Companies-businesses-organisations
to assist with screening potential employees/volunteers etc..
+ a useful resource for media
outlets/journalists/Investigators/researchers etc..
+ a useful method of
constantly lobbying Australian Government/s and politicians to do more to
protect the PUBLIC from sexual predators.
"Tougher sentencing for offenders,greater government
funding for prevention/better victim assistance and public sex offender
registries would be a good foundation to work from."

Ten years on, the horrors of Port Arthur linger
PORT Arthur has seen unspeakable horrors, both ancient and modern. Into the history of this hamlet, when 28-year-old misfit Martin Bryant began a murderous rampage in the Broad Arrow Cafe, firing a semi-automatic rifle. He killed 35 people and injured 25 more. People in this town do not talk about the events of April 28, 1996. They do not say Bryant's name. Today, the Port Arthur community, on the Tasman Peninsula, hopes to bury the demons it has wrestled with so long. Today is likely to be the last formal commemorative service for the Port Arthur massacre, and for many who were here that day, today will be the first, and perhaps only time they come back. Keith Moulton lost a daughter, Nanette, and two granddaughters, Alannah and Madeline, to Bryant's madness. He has escorted others through the site and says coming back is important for those affected by the tragedy. "When they come here, and see it on a nice day when it's quiet … they've won their battle. "(But) I wear a scar for this place and there is a big scab on it and every so often, that scab might get kicked, but I carry a scar and I know I'll carry it the rest of my life." Today will be difficult. Prime Minister John Howard will give the keynote address today, while Mr Moulton will read from the Bible. Port Arthur is a beautiful but menacing place. Tour guides and locals are happy to take visitors through the old convict cells. They will point out the punishment cells and the rack to which "incorrigible" prisoners were tied to be flogged, almost proud of this place's brutal history. But the guided tour of the site makes no mention of Australia's largest mass murder, and even beyond ignoring the events of April 1996, effort is made to hide them. The guidebook asks that visitors don't ask tour guides and staff about the massacre. The ruins of Broad Arrow Cafe, once the thriving hub of Port Arthur, now stand alone. It's not part of the tour, but visitors still come. There is nothing inherently sinister about the building. But the fact that 20 people were killed in cold blood within its squat, brick walls makes it a haunting place. Near the cafe is a square, reflective pool, the centrepiece of today's memorial service. At the end of the service, 35 candles — one for each victim — will be placed in the pool.
