By Natasha Cook, published 9/2/2021

I agreed with our fundamental equality as human beings and Australian citizens, but I disputed that we had equally valid points of view in this meeting.

To hell with trying to rehabilitate drug addicted alcoholics, it is just a waste of time & money.

The only thing they can be any use for if frightening other idiots. Mandatory sentencing, with extra time for drunks or druggies on a chain gang working on roads may just frighten some into better behavior, unlikely, but better than wasting time & money on bleeding heart rubbish rehabilitation courses.

If the idiots see a really nasty future if they continue stupid behavior some will back of their stupidity, & some innocents may be saved. While we have sentencing & correction in the hands of bleeding hearts the problem will only continue to grow, as is currently seen with youth crime in Queensland.

The Qld premier was on TV yesterday re youth crime & what her Govt "will be doing". They'll "test" ankle bracelets & review bail etc.
No word of any toughening on punishment though ! Status quo will prevail by the sounds of it !
