SCOTTY get of your high horse! do you understand that night?
Have you heard about the long fight for justice?
Do you remember the Vietnam vets fight for justice after exposure to agent orange?
Have you any doubt it was used?
Have you seen a compensation payment handed down for hundreds of thousands of dollars for sexual discrimination?
SCOTTY do you understand the Voyager was cut in half that night?
A night of death and blood?
Have you served your country?
Been full of fear yet done your duty?
This thread calls one who did a COWARD!
On what grounds?
This country owes much to many and my party as much as conservatives is to blame.

Yeh Ive served my country, RAInf.

Im saying that if this guy gets $2m why dont other Vets get the same?

Accidents happen, this is a slap in the face for every guy who has been medically discharged.

Fair go he should have been given a gold card and compensation but to say a 24 hr period is worth $2m is ludicrous.

I dont begrudge him compo, I do however baulk at this payment over what is a tragic but domestic accident.

Everyone is in it for what they can get out of it and I find that a sad indictment on the the Australian way.

Seems that going Jack is the way now. I put it all on the leftist agenda, well get stuffed.

Where is my $2 million dollars Belly and wheres the $2mil for that bloke down the RSL without any legs surely for giving up his legs thats gotta be worth $10mil Belly. And what about my mate whos 15yr son has downs syndrome from agent orange and whom cant sleep in the same bed as his wife because of the nightmares what $20 mil.

These blokes have somthing you or this bloke will never have and thats a sense of honour.

The bleeding hearts like to rant on but at the end of the day. They have no substance, no guts. Get back to bringing more muslims here thats what your good at.

My my, SCOTTY, you do get in a tizz don't you?

If you had mastered the capacity to read you would have noticed that I object to this man being referred to as a coward....

Or as a former military man perhaps you think with the Pattonesque mindset. ANY military man/woman who suffers trauma as a result of a combat situation is a coward?

As to the rest of your barely legible ranting; I'll let that stand for itself.

Do your knuckles drag on the floor by any chance?

SCOTTY that rant belittles you not me, me a leftist, gee mate you do not have to have feathers to be a goose.
Domestic? at sea on an exercise no domestic incident.
The fact the fight took from 1964 till now inflated the legal bill, no doubt at all this inflated the bill.
So your service mates are hero's but this bloke is a COWARD?
I have lost respect for you.

Belly and others a coward is somebody who lacks courage. If he is such a brave hero why is a suing the Australian tax payers for 2 million dollars! It might be harsh what I am saying but it is true!

I am sure if any of the ANZACS who fought for months in applying conditions were around today they would not hesitate to label him a coward! All he did was pick up survivors… lucky he did not have to bayonet charge a machine gun!

'all he did was pick up survivors'...Easytimes.

You are lucky; easy times are clearly all you have known.
