Absolutely Brilliant idea.

For the ex-leader of one of the more recognised Australian student bodies in the world and a Rhodes Scholar to boot he suffers from severe foot-in-mouth disorder.

add the extremely punchable face and he could walk into a channel 9 commentating gig

Funniest part is, although he is all that, he still managed to become PM.

Shows what a basket case Labor was.

I believe had anybody else been leader of the LNP, Gillard wouldn't have had the hung parliament and LNP would be into their 2nd term now.

The top layer of Australian politics is full of dunces who'd be lucky to last a term.

The LNP choice probably would have been knifed halfway through the term and we'd be into a new, equally uninspiring Labor Government. The entire policy of "But Labor" falls apart once they're in opposition and your in charge.

Seeing as though I missed the discussion about finding your daughter with her boyfriend in your house thought I would get peoples thoughts on this one.

Me personally I think I would have struggled to hold back and the kid would be lucky to get out of the house alive.

I saw that on FB this morning. I feel like if you kill a person like that, there shouldn't even be a punishment. Just 'He deserved it' and move on.

If it were me they would need a funeral director not an ambulance. Touch my kids you die, no negotiation no second chances.

if I walked in and my young cousin was on the end of that you would have to pry me off him which with me isn't easy to do.

Perfectly understandable reaction, but realistically, you couldn't do that to your wife and kids. Kill another person (even a scumbag), and you're off to prison.

Should we be allowed to kill child molesters and rapists, murderers, etc.? Well, that's a discussion for another day.

That's the thing, unless you are in that situation you don't know how you would react.

Whilst I would like to think I could stop, I'm not sure if I could in that situation

I think most people would stop, and their family is the reason why. A father and husband is not much use cooped up in prison.

But it's perfectly understandable to me why people would have those reactions.

If you had to be deaf or blind, what would you choose and why?

For me, it's deafness. I think you have a much easier life being auditory impaired than visually impaired.

That's a really tough one. While I use sight for everything, I also draw a lot of emotion and inspiration from sound. Not just music, but sound of all kinds. I can sit outside here in Nanjing, close my eyes, and be inspired by the sounds of the city.
