Why is sprint even a Mod on any topic here?


Mods can run their member run boards any way they please. They have the right to impose their own standards. If you don't like it - then don't post there. Why shouldn't he be a mod? He's been a member here from the beginning and running his Spirituality forum for almost as long.

WOW... we have gone mad.. sure when it came to crime and punishment our history wasnt that great but bloody hell.. what we are doing right now is giving bad people so much rope so many rights to do the wrong thing...

even on here you see people going into bat for the villain even the head hunters have been driven to do what they do by someone else.. Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes..

there is more whoha today if the referee makes a mistake in the Grand Final than there is about pure injustice....

I've noticed this too. The extremist do-gooders of this society are the ones kicking up about freedom and civil rights and seem to blatantly ignore what a predator has done, it's almost like they think it's okay, and the victim is just expected to "forgive and forget" or turn the other cheek.

They're also great at making excuses for them. In some cases, "being under the influence of drugs/alcohol" "mental illness" and in the case of the king hit "the concrete ground killed him, not I."

It's like nobody has any responsibility anymore, they can just palm it off to something external and blame something else.

It is indeed a mad world, where "law" counts for nothing and can be manipulated and distorted to serve an agenda. Lawyers destroy justice in a court of law by searching for "loopholes" in cases, to ensure that they win the case (driven by money and status) and the whole point of a court of law goes down the drain in favour of somebody's agenda, it suddenly doesn't matter if person is or isn't guilty.

That isn't 100% true. For an example, Sprinty knows that I don't agree a lot of the aspects of organised religion. Sprinty's faith is of that -- organised religion. He will delete posts if they contain mockery which is no different to personal abuse, really. I don't think he really cares what you believe, it's more about how you conduct yourself. You can express an opinion without pulling the p!ss, which is what I have done in the Spirituality forum, none of my posts have been deleted, if anything, he applauds them -- but do they contradict with his beliefs? Yes.



That's about it.
Feel free to constructively criticise organised belief systems.
If you just want to go in and just make some sarcastic offensive meaningless offtopic remark against anything it may be deleted.

If your don't accept other beliefs and you express that in an abusive sarcastic meaningless manner it may be deleted.

I accept others have differing  viewpoints. That's a basic sign of spiritual maturity.
If I did not, it would show the weakness of my faith.




you dont think thats a case OF POWER GONE MAD?..

whos to say something is sarcastic??.. I often think I am being sarcastic but the other end takes it for real..

you sound over the top to me sprint...it is being able to talk about our different viewpoints.,.. and dont forget on here you are not interrupted..that makes us humans using our brains..

religion is what most wars are about....and yet you say you pick and chose whos viewpoint you want to listen too...and what others are entitled to listen/read .. thats bullying thats not moderating.

isnt that what ISLI is doing????......


I repost the following here, as it is relevant.

I think you've got an incorrect perception of our court system and I don't think you're aware of what the conviction rates are in our courts.

For violent crime, it's well over 80% - for something like homicide then over 90%.
Far less than 1% get off on a technicality. Way, way less than 1% get an acquittal based on something like temporary insanity.

The only exception is for sexual assault where the majority of cases end in acquittal.

These days, if you find yourself in court, you stand a bigger chance of getting convicted and receiving a longer sentence than any time since federation in 1901.

Can't be f-cked finding links. Google "conviction rate" or something. People have a really skewed perception of crime and punishment here. You should know that having been a lawyer.

No. I didn't make them up.
Don't know the current real figures so just said more than. About 10 years ago I did a gig compiling the NSW court and sentencing stats... tech role, not authoring.

So if I kill someone and claim that I have a mental illness, I'll be punished like the everyday Joe?

Despite your alleged figures and what not, it doesn't seem to match up with what I've seen, personally. I knew a girl whose son was murdered at the age of three, by her brother-in-law. He spent three years in jail, and that was with parole.

Is that justice?

Also, explain to me why paedophile identities are protected, and in some cases, are allowed to get back to their daily lives and live close to schools, etc?

disagree ... i merely questioned one of
his
comments and he deleted it. .. it was on topic since it was his comment to start with, and there was no mockery or abuse ...

he was probably too busy playing the vicitim to think about it anyway


He may have perceived it to be a mockery. Unfortunately, I am not able to see these comments to give any kind of comment because they have been deleted  Tongue

I'm only going on how Sprinty treats me. I post in his forum quite often and have experienced no problems with him so far.

If it's proven that you have a mental illness, then your punishment will more than likely change. Getting sentenced to a mental institution isn't a fixed sentence like what you'd get normally - it's open ended - i.e. until they think you're no longer a threat - that 15 years you would have got otherwise could end up being life in an institution.

Paedophile identities are usually kept secret for the benefit of their victims - so they can't be identified.

If you can prove that you have a mental illness, then your punishment will more than likely change. Getting sentenced to a mental institution isn't a fixed sentence like what you'd get normally - it's open ended - i.e. until they think you're no longer a threat.

Paedophile identities are usually kept secret for the benefit of their victims - so they can't be identified.


So how does one go about conducting proof of a mental illness? Would there be brain scans, etc?
If they come to the conclusion you're no longer a threat, what happens next? Are they set free?
Do you think there's a possibility that people out there would feign mental illness to avoid harsher punishments?

That benefit has a double-edged sword. Should paedophiles be allowed to be free in the first place? Think about what they do, for a second... it isn't something that can be "fixed" through rehabilitation. As disgusting as this is going to sound, it is natural for them to be attracted to children (abnormal for most people, though) as it is natural for a homosexual to be attracted to the same sex. Surely, they can be trained to not act on their desires, but can they really be trusted?

Is the civil rights and freedom of a predator more important than civil rights and freedom of a child who has theirs violated by said predator?

I dont care what anyone says.. I for one have lost a lot of respect for our courts...today for instance 
two small things in todays paper...

silks guilty son walks free.
the son of top SYdney Barrister John Agius...walked free today after committing an armed robbery .20 yr old Felim pistol whipped the owner of a Jewllery store .. despite pleading guilty he walked free . receiving a two yr .good behavior bond..his father is representing the CFMEU at the Royal Comm...

in the other story..also by chance  in the royal into the Unions.. its turns out..that Khaled Sharrouf the same one who posted pic of him and his son holding severed heads.. worked as a stand over man for Geo Alex the gangster that built an empire using the crooked unions bosses...one of the witnesses claims when he fell out with Alex.. his house was shot at and he claims by SHarrouf and his side kick Elomar.. who are now both fighting the good cause for ISLI..

I find it hard to believe these people have not been on police radar for a long time....however thanks to our court system...one almost has to have a video of them doing the killing to get them charged and found guilty...our system  to me seems to protect the crims far more than it does the public.

That's my point exactly.

This ideal of "freedom and civil rights" is being manipulated to suit the criminal/scumbag element, and the do-gooder extremists are falling for it hook, line and sinker.

So how does one go about conducting proof of a mental illness? Would there be brain scans, etc?
If they come to the conclusion you're no longer a threat, what happens next? Are they set free?
Do you think there's a possibility that people out there would feign mental illness to avoid harsher punishments?


No real idea. I guess they get a few shrinks and psychologists to assess the person - experts assigned by either the court or the prosecution.
You're assuming that getting sent to a psych institution is a lesser punishment.
Yes, they are usually set free when found to be no longer a threat.

Sure, there's a possibility that people feign mental illness - and it happens, but it's far less frequent than what you'd think - with even less frequency of success.
