By Michael Hayworth, published 24/5/2013

For years scientists have theorised that it's not intelligence that makes mankind unique, but our conscious ability to learn, and to improve.

Individual "...we are trying to reinstall traditional law".
What on earth is that then, and who are 'we'?
Are you talking about Aboriginal law, the cane, hanging, the stocks, stoning or what?

If indeed you are gathering a posse together to make up a vigilante group, then you should consider that maybe they don't allow free Internet access for you to post on the forum when you are in jail!

We have moved on from the good ol' days Individual, and I for one am glad we have.
Australia does not support corporal punishment...

When you have introduced a barbaric element into your society with ridiculous immigration & refugee regulations, you need barbaric penalties to handle your new population.

When you have religious elements in your society barbaric enough to kill an innocent man, simply to make a point, it is time for so called barbaric punishments.

When do-gooder magistrates have trained a generation of youth that it is OK for them to ignore the law, you need very tough penalties to stop the rot.

When the whole society is crumbling into a "mobs of Rome" environment, you can fix it or die. Our dogooders want us to die.

Well bugger them.

Dear Hasbeen,

I'm not sure sodomising our religious elements is the answer.

Oh wait! I see where you are coming from. An eye for an eye so to speak.

Perhaps we should let the current inquiry play out first.

If justice is not seen to have been done then I suppose you taking the matter into your own hands so to speak could be seen to be an option, but only if you think you are up to it ol' fella.

Suseonline & csteele,
how about offing us a solution. What do you suggest we do when we want to go away for a couple of weeks but by leaving the premises for a few days at the most they'll be broken into & robbed. insurance companies will not insure you on indigenous communities for obvious reasons. You know that upon your return you have been robbed & when the culprits get caught by police the Magistrates let them off again with a caution, Again, & you get no compensation whatsoever. What do you suggest ?

An opposition to the Death Penalty, especially for the likes of that Bloody Handed, Muslim lowlife in Britain, is not care for the criminal. It is the larger question of the Bloody Handedness that states can develop as seen in Syria, China, Cambodia and many other generally Leftish tourist destinations. Having death as never an option, for even for the vilest Criminal acts, makes it harder to generalise to Political perversion of this penalty. As recently seen with Obamas' "Chicago Doctrine" perverting the offices of the IRS and Justice Department, the greater the barrier the better.
