Aussie's Report

hey have you read the story in the courier mail today about the guy on the roof of the pub just a pair of shorts and thongs (flip flops to you americans) he's got a hose and he's putting embers out. The rtowns popping and burning and beneath him in a room is a heap of school kids. All he's got is a garden hose. Its a great photo in the article.
What a champion. and I love how he had his safty boots on so Australian.

Well they caught and charged the twat that started our local small fire. The one that killed 20 people. Bloke was a nonce also.
A bullets too quick and painless.

Not quite true, they have caught someone suspected of lighting fires. It still needs proving by the courts and as such the prosecution must prove their case. He may well have done it and be guilty as sin but it needs to be established in the letter of the law.

I'm fearful of some poor loon getting railroaded to make it seem justice has been done. I truly hope they get the right person and bring the hammer down hard.

I agree totally Lord, the aspect of "Lets burn more witches"
could come into play, (sorry about the humerous angle).
 
If he's screwed up enough to do this stuff he's too screwed up not to be caught.
Find him. put him through trial, lock him in a room with no windows & throw away the key.

Then keep him alive until he's 105 years old

Well they found child pornography in his possession so even if he isnt guilty of the arson....burn him.

Oh dear you're doing it again dude. He has also been accused of possessing child pornography. Now I'm not saying he doesn't have it and isn't a sicko.

However you are making a claim that is yet to be proven. Rightly or wrongly this bloke is going to have a tough time getting a fair trial when the public consensus is 'burn him'.

If he's guilt is proven then put him into the general prison population, he doesn't deserve any special rights if he's done what he's been accused of.

Don't put him in 'protective' custody though let him mingle with the other inmates.

LOL. Ok mate. Well i believe he is from morwell. Ever been to morwell?... Burn him. :)

I agree if he's guilty burn him, I just want to make sure they get the right person. ;)

Never been south of Bendigo BTW.
 
The news this morning reported

DISASTER victim identification teams combing Victoria have found large groups of bodies, including one with eight bodies huddled to protect a baby.

No way I could be involved in looking for bodies in this manner, I've attended two fatalities on the rail network. They were bad enough to view without seeing children/babies bodies.

The size of this disaster is something new for Australia I hope these people have a good support network around them. I know I'd need it.
 
I do hear ya mate. Its just very hard to hold faith in our legal system sometimes. Perhaps im a bone head, but justice and karma dont always just happen in my eyes.

It just gets more tragic by the day, i heard 7000 homeless last night. And you would have to be a special breed to continue those searches.

Im just thankfull the weather eased up so much this last week. All this happened over a 12 hour period. I cant imagine if that weather had persisted for 3 or 4 days.

Peace guys.
Pete
