Yep, a National MP telling us that facts and figures shouldn't be used to help make decisions.

Breaking news - Kahui found not guilty.

Tbh I'm not surprised. Based purely on what I've read/watched in the media about this case, I thought he'd be found not guilty. The Crown seemed to do an excellent job of painting Macsyna King as the villain. It just really kills me that nobody is probably going to be brought to justice for murdering those two wee babies.

Holy Moly, only 10 minutes to find him not guilty.
The case went for 6 weeks and it took less that 0.1% of that time to decide. What a waste of time. The police really screwed up doing that.

So, will they now arrest the mother?

I stand to be corrected by those more knowledgable, but you'd think that the police would have arrested her a long time ago had they had the evidence to do so. So...probably not.

Oh and in previous post I should have said "the defence did a good job of painting Macsyna King as the villain"

well if he really didnt do it his lifes been pretty fucked over for nothing
edit: havent been following the case or listening to the news much apart from when it was first reported so dont know if the general consensus was that he had something to do with it or if hes just the guy that got landed in the shit for someone elses wrongdoing

I think you missed the point of what she is saying. No, you did miss the point. And you obviously can't read, because she also doesn't say they shouldn't be used.

WTF?

Can you try twice someone for the same crime? This is the family that went into lockdown when the police wanted answers, they probably pushed him foward to be arrested, made her out to be the bad one, then he gets found innocent, she gets arrested and he can say 'i did it''.

Someone needs to be made accountable for two deaths. Two horrific deaths.

I just randomly decided to check the Liz Shaw thread, and realised that she is in the same city as me at the moment

Nope. Double jeopardy.
You can't be tried again for the same crime if found not quilty first (or even second) time around.
Even if new evidence surfaces.
If they changed the charges however....

WTF?
What she was saying is that transit have priorities on what to fix but that they stress too much on the statistics. WTF else are they going to base those priorities upon? Feelings maybe?



Yes, Ab, it was a parody/satire site setup to show some of the stupidity in our politicians.

Earth to Greenpeace: if the last group of people on earth is Greenpeace, I would rather KILL MYSELF with TEN THOUSAND Chernobyl than have you muppets running a satire website.

Given the message comes from Mother Earth, hopefully they will listen.

i realised today at the supermarket that my care factor for what others think has completely evaporated. i just dont give a shit anymore. i knocked over a bunch of red bull (i decided to drink 4 red bull in a row to see what would happen) and swore really loudly. then when i was in the checkout queue with sepulchral i let rip the hugest roar of a fart and just laughed my ass off while he went bright red and couldnt believe what id done. i talk about people on the street like they arent standing right next to me, and blatantly stare at womens chests if they are on display.


also, drinking 4 red bulls has just made me feel kinda ill.
