We do know: Nugent has mental health issues combined with chronic pain and exclusion by the NDIS.

Excruciatingly, Haines had only recently asked for more spending on regional mental health facilities, and was refused - "it's the budget", you see.

Mainstream "austerity" economists in charge of goverment finances are destroying social cohesion.

Mental illness has its limits when it comes to mitigating potential punishment for a crime committed whilst the person is mentally ill. I bet Nugent had enough money to buy whatever medication he needed to alleviate whatever mental illness led to his psychotic attack. And if there were not warning signs in the lead up to the attack, it could be surmised that Nugent had an emotional issue leading to his attack on Helen Haines.

We don't even know what his 'disagreement' was or is... it seems the usual hodge-podge of emotional issues that cannot be reasoned with, that has somehow transformed into some quite insane plot to strike at someone in 'authority' regardless of facts.

We do know: Nugent has mental health issues combined with chronic pain and exclusion by the NDIS.

Excruciatingly, Haines had only recently asked for more spending on regional mental health facilities, and was refused - "it's the budget", you see.

So he attacks a family friend?

Your error: he's been estranged from his family (father and stepmother) for 4 years.

Quote:

Yeah righto. The bloke is just a spoilt lefty extremist, that done nothing with his life & wants to take it out on mum & dad & family friends.

Interesting: you deny the complaints expressed in Nugent's own social media posts which suggest Nugent has mental health issues combined with chronic pain and exclusion by the NDIS, while condemning him for his pro-environment- protection stance ("a spoilt lefty extremist").

Just like you deny ongoing Islamic terrorism is caused by the
UN's botched partition of Muslim Palestine in 1947, even though Bin Laden himself (in his 'Letter to America') told us he regarded the partition as an infidel Crusader outrage against Islam, so you deny Nugent' motivations and personal circumstances leading him to commit an atrocity.

Grappler suggested Bin Laden's letter was "propaganda" - like you, he rejects the evidence before his eyes...

And now you reject the evidence re Nugent's motivation.

Meanwhile Europe's youth and parents are protesting (some violently) against c-o-l, public housing, and public education crises, yet you want to REDUCE govt spending.

Again, Graps says the move to the political extremes is at fault, when in fact the the mainstream centre - accepting government 'austerity' - is the problem.

(That's why Democratic Socialism is growing in the US - because the mainsteam 'centre' Dems, like Albo, won't increase taxes on the wealthy...

And according to your other thread they were still supporting him. Roll Eyes

So why on the other thread was it intimated that was the reason for the attack? Roll Eyes

But your MMT theory says they do not need to raise taxes at all. Just print money. Grin

In this day and age we all have mental issues from worry, chronic pain, any sane person is genuinely pro-environment' (just not their way), because of our demographic (wharte men are back bludgers) we are all excluded from NDIS so they can cater to ailing immigrants of five minutes in a rich manner - run by sheilas you see - no idea other than smothering 'victims' with your money without proper checks and in some cases setting up family members as 'providers' so they all end up in a multi million dollar house and you end up on the beach - I blame affirmative action and feminism - YOU?

I reckon it's time for genuine equal opportunity and one hell of a lot more men back into these jobs... someone who will take real control and offer genuine direction instead of namby-pambying and rorting your way to your fat retirement.

Yes, interesting.

when there was obvious political violence egainst Jews, it was tut-tut or nuffin' to see here and appeasemnt bu the political recognition of the non-existent Palestinian state.

But now a politician is attacked for very likely NON political reasons by a drug addled pro-palestinian far left nutter - and the politician are haveing an instant self-pity session and calling for 'toning down' the political criticism directed at them.

I expect they will use it to control political speech even further.

(not the first time, btw, that a politician has been violently attacked or even killed)
