My beef with your post was the nonsensical association of Australian left wing politics with socialism, its not even close. Anyone who thinks that way is intentionally misleading, or has not a clue what socialism is. Australia, has always had a degree of 'socialist' practices, such as housing, state run energy, water supply, roads, there are many, and most nations including the US and the UK share those traits. Truly socialist nations tend not to be soft on crime, so your post on that association was nothing but a red herring. These sorts of attitudes display party politics, rather than making informed decisions based on say, policy. Quote:

Not to mention the costs of serious punishments, the publics tendency to scream for action, then cry about the cost, and positively bemoan at the methods of raising it. Politicians of all sides desire re-election, the publics lack of understanding, reluctance to form complex thought and even apathy until election day, hardly encourages action from government. Talk to 20 parents tomorrow and ask if they like the soft on crime approach. Ill bet 15 say no, and thats a majority. I wonder why the alternative party isnt elected then, they offer no alternative either, they suffer the same restraints as the other. Last edited by fmc351; 27-03-2008 at 12:01 AM. |

Lets see when I was a kid and old enough to tie my own shoes laces I aready knew it was wrong to STEAL !!!!!!!.
Lets get real these kids know what they are doing is wrong and they think they can get away with it. We as a society simply don't care about other peoples property or the effect having it stolen has on the owner anymore. I would also like to ask " Why do we have police if they are not there to catch criminals and protect the rest of us ?" We can't do it ourselves. |

Socialist nations are not always hard on crime, and in the case of Australia, socialism creates a culture of not caring to do ones duty as the rewards are removed. Would you risk your life at work for nothing? Now you know how the cops feel. Quote:

If they can't find that then they wait for someone in the system to make a clerical error like a missing paper clip, and then have the charge struck out. It's just the way things work in places like spin city, and nothing is set to change it.

Is your name Anna Coren?

Oh, and twice now youve assumed Ive got something against Police, maybe you should read some of my posts in other threads, you couldnt be further from the truth. You cant follow anything, your attention to detail is woeful, you have no legal experience and of that Im positive. Yes, Im calling you a liar. At best, youve been a receptionist in a legal office. Quote:
Many people, seemingly a revelation for you, dont adhere to one side of politics. Myself, I believe in capitalist tenets of property rights, freedoms, liberties, but I believe in socialist tenets of free education, health care and equality, for example. Some of these tenets cross over, others dont. [QUOTE=ltd]No, I do know a little and I also do know what socialism is. [/QUOTE Yes, very little. Quote:
Governments are soft on crime due to DOLLARS, they just use the excuse of humanity. The shortage of dollars apply to both sides of politics in this country. You completely missed the point I made regarding the public screaming, the public cry about having to pay higher taxes to fund the increased levels of imprisonment. Governments cant fund that without dollars, they cant raise the dollars without the public crying over taxes, and the public dont want crims going free. One of these things is easy to hide, revolving door prisons. If the public woke up and were willing to pay an additional tax, then governments could get tougher on crime. As it stands, the public rant and rave about how they want something done, yet rant and rave about footing the bill. In the end, governments try to get re-elected (nature of the game), thus they find ways to avoid the issue as they cant win that issue, the public cry no matter what they do. Why are you so easily confused? You want to point the finger of blame, find a mirror. Quote:
Quote:
Australia is not socialist, not by any stretch of the imagination, that was the point. Do you always get so confused? But all countries, have some socialist practices in place to make the system work, that includes the US. Laissez faire capitalism does not work, just as communism does not work. All systems that work, have characteristics of alternative systems in place. Quote:
When softly softly works, you dont hear about it as youre not meant to, its private for the person in question. You only hear of the failures. There are bound to be failures, its up to you to realise you only hear of the failures, now think about this before you start typing. Can you manage that? Leniency should come to an end when it fails, on a case by case basis, for example, a first offence there is merit in leniency as its not too late for the individual and they can still be 'saved', although even for a first offence it may end up pointless, but civilised societies take that chance as it cant be known beforehand. However, a first offence doesnt get one off murder for example. Nor should there be second chances IMO, but there is merit to the argument there should be second chances but Im sure its beyond you. Quote:
Grounds for appeal are limited to procedural breaches, misreadings or misapplications of law, or compelling new evidence. You can not appeal because the client simply doesnt like the decision. What you hear is people claiming they will appeal a decision they dont like, but never get there as they dont have 'grounds' to launch the appeal, leave is not granted and no appeal can be launched without leave being granted. Appeal after appeal indeed. Maybe look up the court hierarchy to see exactly how far someone can appeal. Remember, each appeal must step up one level, not sideways and the 'grounds' to apply for leave to appeal a decision are not as simple as you seem to be fooling yourself on. I said at the start you were delusional, thanks for proving that. Quote:
You should stop posting legal matters, you clearly demonstrate your lack of understanding of the system you claim to work in. Dont make me link to the thread. |

You can call me what you want. The opinion of someone on this forum does not require me to prove anything should I not wish to do so. You're also proving to be an arrogant jerk when you personally attack the character of another. Opinions aside, such a thinly veiled attack is evidence of a lack of a sound argument. Quote:

Even today the display put on by the Chinese impersonating Tibetan monks was referring in the third person to them as communist China. Have the Chinese got it all wrong? Maybe whilst on your IDD calls you may wish to inform Hua JinTao (sp.). Quote:

Again, people have socialist agendas, and as such implement policy based on their dream of socialist nirvana. By it's very nature it would be nigh on impossible to make a western nation a socialist nation, but contrarily socialist governments such as the new federal government have and will implement further policy on socialist ideals. Methinks you read between the lines too much and over analyse. Quote:

I am aware of the appeals process, but equally I am aware of the Administrative Appeals tribunal and their overly sympathetic ear when it comes to defendants. Citing definitions doesn't prove a point. Quote:

What is this related to? Is this to impress us with your alleged knowledge of the law? I submit that you are in fact a law student, as I find it hard to believe someone with such an over analytical and often myopic viewpoint would be able to function in any practice at any capacity. You seem to have a chip on your shoulder and whilst I apologised for the mis-association with another member denigrating the police, this seems to have enraged you further. I will tell you now that I don't practice law, and haven't done for 5 years. Furthermore the law I did was mainly suburban law, and the kind of clientele that a suburban practice sees were one of the reasons I decided to quit. As for any advice you assert that I have given, if you look carefully you will note that each time I have referred others to their own solicitor for liability reasons, and I have never dispensed advice on any particular case over the internet or phone for obvious reasons.

Can we stop with the tit for tat posts and keep on topic, rather than on who's points are better than who's
