Oooh, hit me where it hurts!

How many demerits would I get for publicly stating that somebody not convicted of murder is a murderer?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Joe Edwin Kaukasi (aged 15 at the time), Riki Rapiri (aged 15) and Casi Rawri (aged 20) have been released on parole yet nobody calls for their immediate detention.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

That&#039;s because Farrar hasn&#039;t yet dangled any bait with their name on it in front of his pit of loony fucktards here.  Redbaiter, are you listening?

		<description>I do find it odd that three other people have been paroled for the killing of Michael Choy - Joe Edwin Kaukasi (aged 15 at the time), Riki Rapiri (aged 15) and Casi Rawri (aged 20) have been released on parole yet nobody calls for their immediate detention.</description>

		<description>DPF, you say that we are going to have to wait until Kurariki commits another serious violent crime before he is locked up again (true) and that we can expect he will commit 100 or 150 crimes before his is locked up for life (NOT true)

That is the whole point of &quot;three strikes&quot;; the days of 100 violent crimes before lengthy incarceration are over. He will have the opportunity to commit three more serious violent crimes before being sent away for 14 years (if the third one is an aggravated robbery) or 20 years if - God forbid - the third one is rape. Add either of those sentences to the 7 or 10 years combined that he will  have served for strikes one and two, and he will be beyond the peak crime committing years when he comes out after this third strike offence. If he then commits another serious violent crime, he will again receive the maximum sentence, and be wearied by age when he gets out of jail.

Those four crimes to see him to age of 65 are four too many, but a damn sight better than the situation we have now.</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;Singaporeans have done this in the main by aggressively excluding the Progressive political argument pressed by such as you, and all of the socially destructive outcomes that ideology brings (like welfare dependency and moral and family breakdown).&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Sweeping assertions unsupported by evidence - propaganda.

People who hold extreme political views  and who gloss over Singapore&#039;s human rights abuses in the name of economic success confirms that they are mainly waiting for the dictator of their choice to come along and save them all (from themselves?).

I prefer, if that is the necessary choice, and I don&#039;t believe it is, to be poorer but wealthy in terms of genuine freedom.</description>

		<description>&quot;Nothing is going to bring back Michael Choy.&quot;

The idea is to prevent any further such killings. You won&#039;t do that by slobbering like a love sick dog over one of those responsible for his death.</description>

		<description>&quot; I’m not seriously expecting you to make sense or be consistent, but this angle of argument seems a bit rich even by your standards.&quot;

What you expect is hardly of real concern Mr. Brown given your proclivity for scuttling off like a frightened crustacean the minute you are challenged with any inconsistency of your own (ie in the thread on National radio and why the listeners cannot pay by subscription).

In fact I am always consistent, and the reason you think otherwise is that you are a blinkered leftist who because of your condition lacks the ability to discern with accuracy any particular point.

It is noted that in this case you will not argue on Bailey Junior Kurariki, you will not argue on the principle I have attempted to draw attention to, but instead you seek to introduce some bizarrely misconstrued argument relating to my &quot;blathering on about Singapore&quot;.

It causes me some stress I must say to have to use my valuable time to write a response to such a logically disjointed accusation, but I&#039;ll do it because one should never overlook an opportunity to expose you stuffed shirt dumb as a bag of hammers would be elitist leftists from Public Address for the utter fucking knuckle dragging gape jawed fuckwits you really are, and as your allegation in this case makes so plain. (did you read Mr. Sowell&#039;s article on intellectuals? You should. Get a few helpful pointers on self improvement)

I have often exampled Singapore as an example of success in areas where we have failed. This does not mean I completely support every measure that the Singapore government has ever taken in regard to any social (or other) problem.

My main point about Singapore is this- it has managed to bring its citizens high living standards and prosperity that NZers can today only look at in envy, and Singaporeans have done this in the main by aggressively excluding the Progressive political argument pressed by such as you, and all of the socially destructive outcomes that ideology brings (like welfare dependency and moral and family breakdown). Now this has sweet fuck all to do with Bailey Junior Kurariki, or NZ drink driving laws, and it sure as fucking hell is no comment on my &quot; consistency&quot;.

What is worth reflecting on tho, seeing you brought it up, is that the Singaporeans would have dealt in the proper way with this little cowardly POS right from the start, and if he had by any chance been living there when he brought about Michael Choy&#039;s death, he sure as hell would not be a problem to lame NZ Herald so called &quot;journalists&quot; or anyone else today.</description>

		<description>Some of you people are really, really sick.  Also: beware making statements along the lines of &quot;Bailey Junior Kurariki is a murderer&quot; because he was not convicted of murder (he was convicted of manslaughter) thus such remarks are slander/libel.  In case you give a shit.</description>

		<description>And rape?? Really? 

&quot;Statements record Kurariki exposed himself to the women, masturbated in front of them and groped them before they could escape the house.&quot;

Not very nice, but not strictly rape either. If you want to start locking people up because they might in future commit more serious crimes than they actually have done, then why not just adopt a universal death penalty? 

You were clocked doing 115km/h in a 100km limit, so you&#039;ll probably drive thru a crowd and murder somebody, Christchurch teen rave styles, in a few years&#039; time. Guilty, death by hanging...


(Please please righttards try to understand this is not a call for leniency against Kurariki... just for rationality.)</description>

		<description>DPF: &quot;I guess we are just going to have to wait until he has killed, raped or bashed enough people, to lock him up for good.&quot;

Unfortunately, in NZ you have to first actually commit a crime, before you can be locked up for it.</description>

		<description>Interesting follow up in today&#039;s Herald.

&quot;Community Probation Services general manager Katrina Casey said Kurariki was subject to a release on conditions order following a short term of imprisonment, ..... Corrections is in the process of taking breach action against him for non-compliance with one of the conditions of his release order,&quot; she said. ...... One of the conditions of his earlier release was that he not speak to the news media.&quot;

It seems that by attempting to interview Kurariki the journalists were actually assisting him to breach his release conditions!! Journalistic research being what it is, it is unlikely that these journalists had the faintist clue. A case of the ignorant in search if the sensational..... and they found it.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;What is more, this utterly wrong and uncivilized perspective is enforced by roadblocks where innocent people are stopped going about their lawful business and forced to succumb to what is essentially a search, even when their is absolutely no suspicion involved. (Suspicionless searches are a characteristic of the police states you are always pretending to defend against.)&lt;/i&gt;

But aren&#039;t you always blathering on about Singapore, where the government can and does seize and blood-test anyone it cares to, at any time?

I&#039;m not seriously expecting you to make sense or be consistent, but this angle of argument seems a bit rich even by your standards.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;[DPF: No Bailey is not being hounded to death. The dead one is Michael Chow. You may want to remember that]&lt;/i&gt;

And you might want to remember his actual name if you&#039;re going to invoke it in pursuit of political points.

I know this is not the natural place to go looking for basic humanity, but don&#039;t you think this is tragedy on tragedy? Nothing is going to bring back Michael Choy. And now the kid jailed as an accessory to the killing is sitting in his mother&#039;s house, obviously psychologically disturbed, acting out, while she&#039;s so sick from cancer treatment that she can&#039;t lift a finger.</description>

		<description>Yeah how dare that pizza guy die and cause all that grief for young Bailey.  Clearly a victim himself of colonialist oppression.

How can we be sure that Michael Choy wasn&#039;t one of those evil asiatic Jooos Luc?  

If you want a beautiful example of why left wingers are fundamentally mendacious and stupid people, Luc is the gift that keeps on giving.

I&#039;m picking university student, probably about 26-34 (ie permanent student), studying wimmins issues and race politics.  But regrettably too creepy for even the greens to put on their list.</description>

		<description>Yep, he had no chance being at the receiving end of the media and political opportunism.  Since he is unlikely to get over it, he will always have something against the same antagonists...</description>

		<description>Give a guy a break. Bailey Junior Kurariki has graciously provided an enormous amount of wonderful copy to NZ&#039;s media since he was 13 - free of charge. He has also helped advance the careers of a number of journalists. And now - thanks to the forsight and wisdom of the HoS editor -  Mr Kurariki has been provided with  further opportunity to assist with filling the front pages of the print media. I suspect that there are a few more stories to be wrung out of this yet.</description>
