Yeah but Foxy, you're trying to find something comparable in the Indonesian 'judicial' system and 'western' justice. Two different things, completely. Dunno about you, but I'd be totally anal about my bags if I went somewhere like that.

The fact is, no one knows the truth about her guilt other than the person who put the pot in there.

Antiseptic “From the article:"Ms Penrose, who has a history of mental illness was also undergoing psychiatric treatment at the time"

Have another Scotch, mate, it's bound to make you feel better.”

Yes her “history of mental illness” commenced at age 15 when on a school trip and during which she imbibed heavily in marijuana.

Ask yourself this, Antiseptic, whilst I may post snippets about this particular case, why should I pick such a case and maybe, just maybe, I could tell more about such a case than I care to produce here.

Now, before your comment any more on my drinking habits, trust me, I do not like scotch and never drink it, I guess we will mark that down as just another pathetic failing in your perceptive abilities.

I guess your sort of knee-jerk judgments, founded in ignorance and an excusive attitude aplenty, might be the results of an unjustified presumption to your authority but reality is, such delusions are common place among the lower intellects.

Before you bother to debate any point with me in future, I suggest you do some primary research and then you will look less of the ignorant, judgmental moron than you are aspiring to be at the present.

As for Corby and her apologists, she has got away with drug peddling lightly, I hope she dies in prison, either from a painful, disfiguring disease or at her own miserable hand, which would be the best thing she has ever done for anyone else.

Well Col, earlier on you wrote that if your daughters were involved with drugs, they would then not be your daughters. Now you're wishing death and disfigurement upon Schapelle Corby. At least we now have on public record that (1) you're a rotten father and (2) you're infused with such hate that you'd wish death and disfigurement for someone's alleged involvement with marijuana.

She was convicted in what was basically a show trial NOT for murder, rape, kidnapping, terrorism or involvement with the deadly hard drugs. She was allegedly importing MARIJUANA for Christ's sake.....MARIJUANA. Do you even understand what marijuana is? Probably not.

EVERY time you drive around your town you'd pass drug dealers and profiteers every few minutes, pushing their drugs that are equally as harmful as marijuana will EVER be. THOUSANDS of addicts die EVERY year because they use these extremely dangerous drugs......alcohol and tobacco; plus thousands of people have been imprisoned from behavourial consequences from their alcohol addiction.

Marijuana, alchol, tobacco: The ONLY difference is that 2 are legal and one is illegal.

You, in your sublime, blind and rigidly conservative ignorance place Schapelle Corby with the worst of the worst criminals. You are so "bent" in your views that you deserve only mockery.

"If" she is guilty, she needs to do the time, as it was an illegal act....... "BUT" we can do without the ignorance, crass stupidity and pathetic inhumanity displayed in your backward posts about Schapelle Corby.

Any father who'd disown his daughters for drug involvement is simply a lousy, rotten father. Anyone who'd wish death and disfigurement upon someone for involvement with importing marijuana is beneath contempt. And you sir, are beneath contempt.

Dear Col,

I am sorry that you feel the way you do.
And even sorrier that you chose to vent your
spleen so openly on a public Forum such as this.

Obviously, your bad experiences with drug victims,
in the past has tainted your perceptions
regarding this
subject matter. That's very sad, but understandable.

However, I still don't believe that you would turn your back
on any child of yours, regardless of what they may
do. You don't sound like a father that could be so
unforgiving.

Anyway, I wish you and yours All The Best.
May your children continue not to disappoint
you.

Col Rouge: " I do not like scotch and never drink it"

Have a gin then. Whatever floats your boat (what's a gin palace for, after all?).

Seriously, mate, your perspective is very skewed.

I wish to add something to my post about Col's post. Col may be a decent person, maybe. "Maybe" his posts on this subject are "really" the result of something that happened in his past, rather than about Corby.

But.....

He wrote some quite disgusting things, and my comments were about the actual things he wrote. He seems very quick to put down others, resulting in him getting treated the same way he seems to treat others.

Maybe he needs to think about, and clarify, some of his statements.

Or........

Maybe he IS just an uneducated arsehole. I would hope not, but on a forum it can be hard to know as we are anonymous and don't really know one another.
