Lol, only if you think your opinion and life experience is worth more than that of someone else.

And judging by your generalisations and statements about Muslims/Islam, that is exactly what you think about your own religious views in relation to those of others. Funnily enough, that's how all of this got started... so please don't think you could ever convince me to come around to your way of thinking on those matters.

So that's it? It's over?

I already lost one and now I keep getting those people from the guide dogs call me again and again. They are more relentless than I am on my extreme right soap box.

Holy crap - how annoying is it? .... i screen all my phone calls these days cos they all call constantly for years ... you give em a bit tobe nice a few times and they never let go

I think I may be a little intolerant and slightly biased against certain races. But they look so different and blow shit up.

It never really began... *sniff*

f**k Hayne and f**k Gary Gutful. I do the honourable thing and pay up and he tortures me with those pesky guide dog people. I reckon half of those people can see a bit and don't need a dog at all.

Is the last bloke Bjorn Borg without his headband ?

I cannot begin to think how Jamie and his family must feel right now. The stupidity of teenage males. So sad.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Yep. Stupid but rules are rules.

My missus and some people from her work started contributing to the Smith Family a few years back, can't remember if it was to help some kid or some family or just a general donation. I think they gave about $30 a month or so. Eventually they decided to stop donating.... filthy Smith Family kept debiting my wife's account at random intervals - a month here, a month there.... Even asking them to cease and desist and pay back the money they had wronfully taken, they dragged their feet...

Pricks

When these things happen, it reminds of me when you see a husband pleading with the public to help find his missing wife.... you WANT to believe that he's telling the truth and that he hasn't hacked up her body and buried her somewhere but you just know that he's guiilty....Same as this young fella in Bali - I WANT to believe he's telling the truth, but he's probably just a bit stupid and yeah, the blow is probably his.....

That's f**ked. Sorry to hear that. They have never been an issue for us.

Give them some tough Serbian love.

True.

It also interesting how much other people don't want to accept that it most likely is his blow and the degree to which they expect the Australian Government to intervene.

These higher profile cases are strange...

Meanwhile there are probably countless other examples that we don't know about.

A bit like the Spanish disabled basketball team at the Sydney Olympics?

But it is very easy for people to base their judgement on Islam and Islamic people on the behaviour of the idiot fringe (even if that is a pretty big fringe in some countries). .

Um...except they're not a fringe.

Check the Pew research from 2013:

Cue lengthy debate about 'fringe' vs 'big fringe'.

Of course we can't rule out the rank corruption of the Indonesian police. I have an uncle who is an expat there an he tells wild stories of how cash is king over there.

Drivers will be accused of false crimes and be asked to pay fines in cash. He tells me a story of backpackers being thrown to the ground and cops pull out a rolly and told in no uncertain terms to pay the fine of face drug charges.

Last year the shit hit the the fan when "private security" stormed a bucks party in a villa and made "arrests" if "fines" were not paid. The private security seem to be in cahoots with the local police.

"Seven Balinese police officers will face trial over extortion allegations after 16 Melbourne men attending a buck's weekend in Seminyak were forced to pay a bribe of about $25,000 to avoid trumped up charges and threats of a 10-year prison sentence."

I'm not saying that the Perth kid is innocent, but he was "arrested" by private security which seems to be a pattern.

As much my son has a great uncle there, I will plead with him not to go there when travelling or at least stay away from the Seminyak, Kuta coast.

My fridge has two doors and ice maker. So I guess it's a big fridge.

That's the best course of action - stay away from the shithole

Don't pretend you are Jesus, Twiz.
