    We need to address real crime.
    Bloody students have nicked my letter box.
    Not a huge issue I know but not nice for a 10yr old to wake up and realise someones vandalised their home.
    Off to Mitre 10 & build a box of bricks. Then bill their landlord.

    I'm not a lawyer but trashing a 14yr old in the media might just contravene the Children, Young Persons, and Their Families Act 1989

    Sure he said shit but he is a kid and needs protecting.

    Craig I have hope that there is a real mellowing in Iran.

    Their heroin addicts now have methadone treatment not a death sentence from a judge or the infected needles.

    If Dubbja can keep his mits off the button it could be a time for gays to get a better deal in Iran than they do in Texas.

    Oops - cops should always shoot to kill (anything else is a miss) - shud have written - shoot first ask questions latter

  • Hard News: One Million Tunes,

    What gets me is at the same time ChCh Cops are sending around an email with the message SHOOT TO KILL. The rantings of a 14yr old is the issue of the day.

    Of course Sandra Manderson kicked out the police shooting instructor who kicked her off the range for unsafe firearms use - so you're safe in her sites - just don't stand to the side.

    I really love Artsville but they got it so wrong last Sunday to call Moutua Gardens occupation and the destruction of the statue as "ironic".

    Moutua Gardens is on the stolen pa Pakaitore. This Pa was for Maori who fought against Hauhau = on Britains side.

    Blumsky - yeah a cheap shot & 10 points for a gracious departure.

    Christchurch got described as an aspiring City State recently by a Selwyn councilor & I kind of like the idea. Banks Pen that Bob Parker brought in has poor water supplies & unsafe bridges - so needed cash for infrastructure. Selwyn is rich but I'ld love to have a say in restricting dairying & CPW.
