Banjo, you ducked my question, re the sentences handed to the following;

1. Farmer, Ian Turnbull murders environmental officer Glen Turner, Turnbull receives 35 years jail.

2. Girl friend of Man Monis, Amirah Droudis murders Monis's ex-wife Helen Lee, Droudis receives 44 years jail.

Based on your simple minded calculations, Turnbull must have received a 9 year discount on his sentence for being a farmer, white, christian, anti-environmentalists, supporter of the status quo, male Anglo Saxon. Can there be any other reason.

On the other hand, Droudis must have received a 9 year penalty on her sentence for being a woman, a Muslim, girlfriend of a notorious killer, city dweller, and not being British.

I'll be checking the right wing establishment media, to see if this preferential treatment of, male, white, Anglo Saxon, Christian, anti-environmentalist murdering farmers is systemic. Like the vast silent majority of Australians, I believe it is!

What's your opinion.

If your 15 year old daughter is having unprotected sex, it is far more likely to be with her pimply faced 16 year old boyfriend than anyone else. if she should fall pregnant nothing in the criminal justice system is going to rectify the social problems it will cause. You can throw the book at 'Pimples' if you like, it will do a fat lot of good.

Sexual Predators on young girls are far more likely to be an immediate family member, a member of the extended family, or a family friend. The strangers are actually a very small minority, but they all need to be dealt with, the priority should be, first and foremost, the abused child victim, can't legislate for that.

Talking with a friend last night, a professional counselor, on this very subject, telling me about a 14 year old boy, who is going off the rails. He is the son of a 30 year old single mum, she has good job, with good income, they live together in a unit.According to my friend, the problem is not the boy, its mum she is "neurotic", can't form a lasting relationship with anyone, including her son. According to my friend she should not have had a child at 16, nor should she have a child at 30. Regardless of age, some people are not equipped for children, can't handle themselves, let alone a child.

//Man stabs his wife to death, then expects bail so he can go back to work//

Because Australian born criminals never apply for bail after committing violent offences? Sure, AC. Whatever you reckon, buddy.

o sung wu,
Thanks for reminding us about the case of the woman refusing to stand in court, I believe she has been charged but the case has not yet come up. It happened late last year.

I recall another similar case that occurred over a traffic incident, where a woman accused an officer of racism and other things. However it was caught on dash cam and she got more than she bargained for. she was exposed as a liar and received a heavy fine.

Be interesting to see the result of the latest case. She should be deported. It pays to keep a file of such incidents. Remember the blokes on rape charges shouting abuse in court, we let them get away with far too much.

"A finding of being in contempt of court may result from publication of material or non-disclosure of material, which in doing so is deemed likely to jeopardize a fair trial." Sub- judice matters were the offence of publishing views about a court process but now is defined as a charge or summons. An opinion about this woman is therefore contempt and you need pyjamas and toothbrush for 2 weeks.
