  Mark Mitchell wants an end to shorter sentences
Posted by: Lilith7 - 05-05-2025, 03:49 PM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - Replies (32)

Fantastic - now, even more people will become hardened criminals, bitter,twisted & keen to give a massive special salute to society..


WHY? Why the devil do right wing politicians appear unable to see past the bash bash short term 'solution' fgs? 
Mark Mitchell seems unable to comprehend that other ways can & do, get far better long term results. He gives the impression of being a mercikess bully. Dodgy

Or is it that they DO for reasons unknown actually want a large group of people constantly committing crimes, returning to prison again & again...?! How the devil can they be so very stupid.

They're very keen to lock people up, not so keen on having to deal with the consequences of that...

  Alcatraz - Retirement planning Trump Style

Quote:“For too long, America has been plagued by vicious, violent, and repeat Criminal Offenders, the dregs of society, who will never contribute anything other than Misery and Suffering. When we were a more serious Nation, in times past, we did not hesitate to lock up the most dangerous criminals, and keep them far away from anyone they could harm. That’s the way it’s supposed to be.”

  The Arsonists in charge of our health system
Posted by: Lilith7 - 04-05-2025, 07:01 PM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - Replies (50)

BHN, Dr Gary Parminder...hits the nail on the head. This delightful govt - long term  they're aiming for privatising health; we have got to get these empathy free, money crazed idiots out of govt next time.

A Govt which is helping no one - except its wealthy donors & mates. Dodgy Angry

  Hundreds protest gender legislation in Dunedin
Posted by: Lilith7 - 04-05-2025, 11:26 AM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - Replies (19)

Hundreds gather in Dunedin to protest proposed gender legislation.

Winston claiming its 'woke & leftist' to allow them the exact same status the rest of us have. While I think we may need a specific category for transgender sports people in sports events, they are & should be entitled to the very samer rights we all have.

  Trump appointed rules AGAINST removing Venezualan migrants to El Salvador
Posted by: Lilith7 - 02-05-2025, 01:28 PM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - No Replies

Very interesting ruling, coming from a Trump appointee; Trump does NOT have authority for removing people - the Alien Enemies Act can only be used in time of war. And America isn't at war with Venezuala.
Can we expect a  tantrum from the Orange Peril at any minute...?


I'd like to think they'll now have to return every last person they've removed, supply them any medical care (free) caused by the trauma & even pay those & their families some compensation.
But I won't hold my breath.

  ICE agents traumatise mother & daughters, confiscate cash, phones
Posted by: Lilith7 - 02-05-2025, 12:04 PM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - No Replies

I think these agents have perhaps studued how the Gestapo behaved. A US citizen family had their phones, laptops & cash (their life savings) confiscated by ICE idiots conducting a search warrant - for someone else.
