"I (Is Mise) had a mate who had 72 pellets of No 6 shot in his left leg"

And what SCHOOL was he in when he got his comeuppance? Please tell us the circumstances of your mates shooting. I am very interested. And don't tell us the kangaroo fired back!

Hi Steele,
Jayb is one who advocates the Filipino model for Australia.

Quote; "In the Philippines he would have been shot dead & that would have been the end of the matter. It's a pity the Government can't introduce similar Laws here. It would certainly cut down on Crime & get rid of a lot of Crims at the same time."

This is what he advocated for a 16 year old boy who was drunk in the street. I wounder what he would have in mind for the real criminals like "Lefties" he so despises.

Interesting how some here, the 'Usual Suspects' are appalled by what they see as a lack of law and order in society. Yet at an instant they advocate an uncontrolled police force given carte blanche to mete out summery "justice" whenever, and wherever, they feel predisposed to do so, with no questions asked! One, an ex-copper called it "sidewalk justice".

p/s Is Mise is a cereal forum nutter a 'Fruitloop' me thinks, but he is easy to wind up, and yes I am always hoping he will come back with something amusing or even halfway witty, but alas all he can muster is his boring bedpan responses. I live in hope that one day Issy will deliver a funny one liner, I have given up on his sidekick Hassy to do the same.

OMG! JayB.... Life expectancies for us are up also... Is that a good thing if medicine keeps you alive but your health, your mental health or living conditions are sub standard?

The point I was making by mentioning the average life expectancies is that the aborigine is still disadvantaged in the health arena because they were kept poor by the invaders (us).

Your comment about 200 years ago all aborigines weren't employed is typical backward whiteman thinking...They lived off the land as hunter collectors so that comment is just sad for you to have meade it. Did you mean to say..In whiteman jobs?

How do you know 200 years agao 1 in 2 were subjected to violence? Where are the records you are referring to? Oh you made that up...Go figure..Pathetic!

OMG! People like you astound me with your bigoted views. Aboriginal people are, even today, jailed for their poverty and for minimalist crimes compared to whites... STOP AND THINK!

So you have spoken to most Aboriginal town people in Australia to claim your "most Townies" comment... Why do you lie to us and yourself?

You are obviously an old white bigot who is totally in denial about the plight of aboriginal people. Never mind we caring people will work with Aboriginal Australia.

STOP TYPING! Your bigotry and deliberate deceit is out there for all to see! You are not just making a fool of yourself you are the problem so get out of the way!

Issy you do realise that not all medical outcomes turn out the same every time. To assume that the outcome for one person shot with pellets is the same outcome for all people shot with pellets is rather appalling. Where did you get your medical training... Disneyland?

Where do you people come from!

paul,

You want something witty?

How about "Paul is witty" or "The Greens are real conservationists"?

Steelie: Duterte is not from Davos because that is in Switzerland. It is Davao.

Thank you steelie you are right, Fat Finger Syndrome. Then you would more than likely know my neighbour, Yen. Apparently they were neighbours in Davao when she was growing up. Boy, what a worker, the whole yard is overgrown in yummy food & I have gained a granddaughter who follows me everywhere. Granddad, granddad, granddad. She's lovely.

I have a little Maltese/Shitsu, Rascal, or Marilyn after my wife 'c cause she can be a cranky little @$#%&% if she cant get her own way. ;-). Her little brother lives over the road, Scallywags, Wags or Dude, ('cause he's Cool,) then there's a little Cavalier/Bishon from down the road, Flame, who is in love with me & never leaves my side. I have them all day every day. Puppies 1,2,3 & Puppy #4. Karla, my next door Granddaughter. She's 4.

Op2,

"Issy you do realise that not all medical outcomes turn out the same every time. To assume that the outcome for one person shot with pellets is the same outcome for all people shot with pellets is rather appalling. Where did you get your medical training... Disneyland?"

Of course, the wounds, if there were any, could have become infected but going by Cook there is little likely hood and going on my own experience and having read extensively on forensic ballistics and on the effects of wounds on clothed and unclothed people during the time that Black powder was used and also given that the Aboriginal was not apparently affected by the shot, I'll back my knowledge and experience against your supposition.
