"You've made a claim about being a "medical practitioner" but that is a very broad field covering doctors, nurses, radiographers and even general hospital workers."

Please give me a reference to support this claim.

The term Medical Practitioner refers to those individuals with medical degrees. They may work in a wide range of areas (Plastic Surgeons, General Practitioners, Cardiologists etc), but the one thing that they all have in common is a medical degree, which makes them Medical Practitioners. The term most definitely does not include nurse, radiographers and general hospital workers. David, your comments demonstrate you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

I will await your reference.

So you're not going to answer the question then?

For those observing these comments on this article, it is obvious to note, these collective racists who post their malevolent comment in support of their perverse views, attempt to influence others essentially by intimidation.

Therefore they are strident in their attempt to con you into believing their purporting of support for the integrity and applied rigour of english grammar, when realistically, as other more reasoned posters may be observed to indicate, these racists more likely retain the literacy levels of a young child, and the IQ levels of bug larvae.

It is why they are obviously so familiar with reference material for grammar. It demonstrates their intention is not an interest in the integrity of grammar, but the colonial mindset of the past.

For Australians the question that is obviously raised then, is whether such mindset is appropriate and relevant as central to 21st Century Australian consideration and its progress.

The obvious answer defeats any legitimate purpose then, to the rantings of these dysfunctional individuals, and their postings on articles such as this. Therefore we must be aware to not be deceived by their witless cunning.

For we must question whether upsetting people for no good reason, as exemplified in the middle east conflict, to an extent that determines peoples unity with extremists such as Saddam, and those that implemented the Lockerbie, 9/11 and Bali, incidents, although it may be a 'capital idea,' is really worth it.

The mentality of these racists then is observed definitively feudal, they care nothing for original thought, for they are capable of none. They demand rigorous compliance with their interpretaion of grammatic principles, by so doing attempting to further intimidate others to accept and promote their views. Its not a new tactic, its basic thuggery, and further indicates their repressive and criminal intent, and dysfunctional character.

ozzie, nearly a week ago I asked this question of you on this thread:

<< Now be honest, are you really a medical doctor? >>

You still seem to be dancing around the question, without quite answering it directly.

Could you please provide a direct answer - a simple yes or no will do. No references required.

As exemplified of the banality of the latter post of CJ Morgan, it is my responsibility to spell out the alert to those naïve who post on these issues, of the insidious nature of the racists I refer to, and their criminal intent in attempting to identify your personal details by pseudo interrogative argument. For it has no relevance to critical analysis, but is an attempt to identify the individual, and their personal details, of those who post on these issues.

It is a tactic in the malicious armoury of such mercenary behaviour, that by implication these parasitic predators may realise the achievement of their intimidation, once the individual targeted becomes aware of the potential of that intent. Failing that outcome, the potential remains to advance that veiled threat to the individual identified, if their identity details are effectively revealed.

Usually those targeted, alike Lucy and I, have committed the unforgivable transgression of assertively or articulately disagreeing with their twisted views and contentions.

To defend yourself from such invasion of privacy, merely lay a trap for them, it is not difficult, they are morons.

To those apologists who pretend the voice of reason in such attempted invasion by these animals, I despise you as the cowards you are, devoid of character. Demonstrated by your callous disregard of the venal nature of these bigoted, racist, predators I refer to, it is from the callous disregard of your neo colonial arrogance they proliferate, and from denial of your own closet bigotry they are spawned
