Here's an analogy you might prefer.  As a GMod, you warn a Member not to do something.  Said Member defies you.  You ban.

Why did you ban?  Who initiated the ban?

Why would you gaol a loon? A Jewish loon at that. The man has a right to say he doesn't believe history. We don't gaol IITL for moon-landing denial, we see him for what he is.


I have no idea as to Toben's religion.  As for gaoling a loon, it is obvious he has shown repeated contempt for the court, as the court is limited in the punishments it can hand out, gaoling is one that would teach him a lesson?    Roll Eyes

Someone said we could not judge a person's Aboriginality on their skin colour.  Why isn't that applied in the matter of Pascoe?  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

What? Lay out your case.

edit: OK. I see. But if I made an erroneous decision in telling them to STFU in the first place? That is what the court did.

Jewish is both a people and a religion. Toben is a Jewish name.

No.  Read the bloody links.  To stay with the analogy....an appeal was made to FD who dismissed it.

Do you extend the same wide interpretation to Islam?

I understand that, it's the contempt on 18c I disagree with. It shouldn't be punishable to hold and espouse an opinion if it does not incite harm to others.

Phaaaaaaaarrrk.  You still have not read the links.  Analogy ~ I was banned by you because I defied your ruling/order/edict.  I appealed to FD who dismissed the appeal.

What was I banned for?

It's not a nation, it encompasses many ethnic groups, as does Christianity it is a religion. There are Jewish people and Jewish people that are Jewish. Are there Islamic people that are Islamic and may also follow Islam?

Jewish is both a people and a religion. Toben is a Jewish name.


Who cares?  He was found to be in contempt of a court decision which was held against him.  He suffered the correct penalty according to the court.  If he had not been so contemptuous of the court, he wouldn't have been imprisoned.  QED.   Roll Eyes
