..how damned PATHETIC - that the hoons that set the flares off in the soccer game in Melbourne a day ago - may NOT be charged???
How PATHETIC - that the magnificent police horses - had to endure these crowds and morons? I cannot believe we are still using these beautiful animals in affray's such as this??
Some horses had blinkers on - the ones that did not - their eyes were rolling back in fear as they had to endure the crowds - the flames and the noise! Disgusting!!!!
Men men men - sorry guys - but once again you seem to be in the spotlight of "nastiness"!!!
Home invasion in Melbourne! Couple of young guys came back to their home with their shopping at approx. 6 pm - day ago - they found a couple of "hoodies" trying to break into their home!
They had their sister and Mother inside the home - terrified!!! The guys dropped their shopping and beat the crap out of the 'hoodies" - yay yay! Now because the 'hoodies" were beat up - the police are now figuring whether to charge the two young Asian guys for harming them! Unbelievable!!!
The world has gone mad! Every day you read/hear of something so unfair - it is UNBELIVABLE!!!

Wonders if the Pope was "one" of them?????????
Female genital mutilation: Muslim sect leader sent to jail in legal U-turn
THE LEADER of a Muslim sect has become the first person to be jailed in Australia over female genital mutilation, a Supreme Court Justice saying a strong message had to be sent to other religious heads that the practise would not be tolerated.
In a surprise reversal of his original sentencing intentions Justice Peter Johnson this morning jailed Shabbir Mohammedbhai Vaziri, 59, the leader of the sect called Dawoodi Bohra to at least 11 months’ jail for his part in trying to cover up the female genital mutilation of two sisters when they were aged six and seven.
The original sentences handed down for the FGM were far too lenient ... these girls have their lives destroyed .... all the purpertraiters should do a jail sentence after which they should be deported.
.... now - who would have thought? lol - yeah yeah ........... News heading in today's paper ..........
HARRIS FOUND WITH PORN STASH
....disgraced sex offender Rolf Harris has been caught hiding pornographic magazines in his prison cell.
When questioned by Prison Guards - Harris confessed - telling the guards he needed them for 'EDUCATIONAL REASONS" ! lol lol lol When asked "why" - Harris said he needed pics. of naked women as he taught Art to prison inmates! la la la - lol lol
Apparently Harris swapped his tobacco rations for porn. mags and had the biggest "stash" of porn. they had seen in years!
Always thought he was a "wanker"! ('scuse the pun....) lol lol lol ........ ewwwwwwww lol
LOL Foxy...see that ole pegleg has despatched to remote locations paintings and valuables to avoid them being seized by liquidators for compensation for his victims.
"ROLF Harris has secretly stashed assets to try to avoid compensating his victims.
Paintings and valuables have been stockpiled at the homes of his supporters.
They include a signed self-portrait featuring Rolf, 86, and his long-suffering wife Alwen.
The Sun on Sunday can reveal it is hidden at a remote cottage owned by a couple inSudbury,Suffolk, who believe Rolf, jailed for five years in 2014 for sexually assaulting young girls, is innocent.
A source said: “Many of Rolf’s personal items were despatched to remote locations to avoid liquidators seizing them.
“Such is the arrogance of this loathsome man, he is determined that his victims do not benefit from his estate being dismantled.”
As I said in another thread Foxy; the police catch them and the Judges/Magisrates give a slap on the wrist.
A life obviously has little value these days. Some of these Judges should be given the sack; they get desensitized after a while. Having worked in the courts myself for 6 years you do get to a point where you have heard it all and nothing surprised you; but that said it should not mean that a Judge gives out lenient sentences; as it would seem in this case. 150 hours community service...come on!!
