So a bunch of queue jumper refugees decided to travel to Australia illegally in a patch up boat.
They sink! 50 dead..
And now a goddam lawyer is getting their relatives to sue the Commonwealth for breaching duty of care..
For not maintaining rescue services for those that chose to STEAL into the country???

IMHO This kind of thing should be laughed out of the judiciary system.

I thought any rationally thinking person would know that once you risk breaking the law,
then you would take the risk not being able to be rescued in remote area..

WTF is going on?
What a waste of funds to even entertain them to be heard in a court.

Bloody bottom feeder!!

I can feel the blood boiling, too!

Can we charge the lawyer with accessory to a crime?

What do you call 3,000 lawyers on a sinking cruise ship?






A good start!

The filthy stinking ambulance chasing, bottom feeding scumbag...may his b@lls fester and never bust!!!

Hopefully commonsense will prevail and it will be thrown out without so much as a thought being given to any further consideration. Also the bottom feeder should wear all costs.

I am so suck of the warm and fuzzy, touchy feely, tree hugging, politically correct kumbayar morons in this world. People need to understand and accept that they are responsible for their actions.

Whats muslim for shite happens?

Inshalla

If you cant swim, get on a leaky boat to illegally enter my country, in a storm and drown, obviously its our fault.

Nup, thats darwinism at work.

Bugger I am still seething!!

It is not about religion, nor about race, I am an immigrant myself.

I am pissed that they are trying to jump the queue in the first place,
now I am doubly pissed for this waste of resources created by the goddam bottom feeder.
Zero sympathy from me...

Exactly

sink the next 12 ship loads without even blinking an eye...that will slow the tide a tad.
lair/lawyer should be hung drawn and quartered for the act of treason....

When I was a little child, you know Bushy, back when dinosaurs still roamed freely and the stone wheels were not quite round. I lived in Thousand Oaks California, Ward Bond of the TV series Wagon Train was our Mayor and the biggest business in town was Animal World where they housed all the wild animals Hollywood used in its movies.

At the time I think there were about 500 or 600 others in the town (over 200,000 today).

I had a tree house I built from scrap lumber I scrounged for and nails I hammered straight. But, on to the point of this story. About twenty feet away from the great huge oak I had my tree house in was a shallow ravine that separated a couple rows of homes. One day I was up in the tree house and I heard a lot of yelling and swearing coming from the ravine directly below me so I peaked over the edge and saw about 12 men beat the Hol- Cr-P out of a guy. I was probably 7 at that time and had never witnessed any type of violence, (with the exception of the oft repeated ass whippings received from my dad).

Many years later I told my dad what I had seen and asked if he knew anything about it. All my dad would say was that the guy more than deserved the beating because of many things the men in the town were aware that he had done, he did not detail the specifics. I sometimes wonder if taking the lawyers, liberals, lying politicians, rapists, child molesters, and wife beaters back behind the barn and explaining to them rigorously how disappointed we are by their actions, and that remedial training would be forthcoming if they didn't change their ways might be a more effective way of solving the problem, well at least I know I would feel better.

Dinosaurs? You had wheels? I'll be damned.....

Dino... was that the dog of Fred Flintstone?

No, that was Lester....

Oh-oh....

Well bushy is already old back then..

Ward Bond what a crackup, he was mayor? I was stationed near there at Pt. Mugu, really nice coastal sort of farming area, too many thieves tho. Lester it's kind of like you're condoning mob rule (which happens to be the first line of your Thomas Jefferson quotes). I know you don't mean it that way, but the point of being passive, unassuming, politically correct and let someone else take care of things has truly gone too far. Even today at work we have an espresso machine, it builds up steam pressure and today decided to blow it's top while I was standing near it. I reached down and unplugged it. The front desk lady told me that it did that yesterday too. What did she do about it? nuthin. So I told her it was like a time bomb and if that pressure release valve failed it WOULD be a bomb. Then I found out several people in the office knew it was blowing off excess for a few days. Did they call in to get a repair? nope. Were they concerned? yes but were too lame to do anything (like unplug it). If their hot water heater at home did that I'm betting it would get some attention. Ignorance in numbers seems to be very lady-like. Self-preserving blindness or ignorance can kill people (ask Hillary).
