Not sure our laws are respected by terrorist groups. 

 If we do not obey and enforce our own laws, we are no better than those terrorists.

The courts will decide. That is why we have them and that is why they are independent.

Trial by media or by the public (who never know all of the facts) is never the answer.

Cheers,

Peter

 

What I do found amazing, is that you have no problem to remember and commemorate ANZAC, where lots of innocent people died including our own soldiers, like you feel you are part of them and are proud of, to the point to even show a bullet, but you have a problem supporting an Australian soldier that it is still alive and that needs your support NOW..

I just leave it there, because personally, all this make me sick...

Do not put words into my mouth. 

You have no idea if I support him, or not, but I do support the courts making the decisions because any other method leads to anarchy.

Cheers,

Peter

Peter, you've posted a response after I posted this.

I am very interested in your response.

So again
"Peter youve posted a map of Australia showing the extent of your travels. I would be very surprised if you havent stayed at aboriginal town camps which been in the news recently for a profoundly sad reason. Did you ever see violence against women or children and did you intervene or turn the other way? If so, why? I have an aboriginal half sister who lives in a camp near Barrow Creek. I have some knowledge of what goes on, in a small area."

 I support his access to a fair trial and the more public interference there is with that, the less likely it is to happen.

Cheers,

Peter
