32 arrested at Victor

32 arrested at Victor :

"The three-night festival, which police estimate has attracted up to 9000 students from around the state, ends tomorrow."

32 arrests out of 9000 students is a pretty small number. Of those arrests , how many were students and how many were students entitled to be at schoolies..i.e. those who have finished year 12? The drinking in a dry zone..well, we all know the rules do not apply to them. The rules are for someone else all the time in that age group. I'm curious to see what the overall opinion of this year's schoolies' festival is because 9000 extras in your community is a big influx and would really test the local community and yet, it appears to have been pretty successful so maybe young people do respect others and it's those odd few who keep messing it up for everyone else. Those extremes which detract form the decency of others so they never get to be spoken about and rewarded for their good behaviour.
