Parents avoid jail for mistreating children

[Banditbandit]

Now here's a good argument for forced sterilization ...

Not that I particularly subscribe to the argument

Sick ferral mongrels, poor kids, and I wonder how many of the party goers have kids in a similar state at home
Bring back the stocks then have them fixed

"judge Thomas acknowledged the troubled past of the father"Same shit different day.The parents are not the only problem here,judge Thomas needs a kick up the arse as well.Coppers must sit in court shaking there heads thinking why the fuck do we bother.

Right on the nail.

Poor kids. Shame they can't be left with the parents and the parents told that if they can't sort their shit out they should be put to death.

Far as i am concerned much of the blame can be landed on those employed to deal with such parents before and when they get to court,its not exactly a new thing to have parents abusing/neglecting there kids in this country its been going on for years but still we hear this "slipped through the cracks" bullshit whilst when they finally go to court we still have judges handing out setences that are nothing but rubbish,take the drink driving issue for instance comparable to this event how?because they simply refuse to hand out harsher sentences,they do no end of talking about it but then...suddenly nothing happens.

What goes on behind closed doors etc... whilst I agree with you, to a point, in regards to the authorities, they can only do so much with an ever decreasing budget and an ever growing number of cases. Aye, there's plenty of wet bus ticket sentences, although you could argue that's compassion... although it's likely a case of turning up apologising and then throwing a party for getting one over on the man. Tis one of the many reasons I want the world without money as there are absolutely no excuses then and it's likely more people would be happier with having the death sentence reintroduced, the kids would also get looked after as the resources would be there to look after the kids properly etc... It's a pisstake really innit. But yeah, home D, community service and a wee fine, maybe a month in the clink really does nothing to address the issue. But what does?

dude. No one in the "justice" system gives a fuck. They get PAID either way. Repeat business is great for business.

[gwigs]

I wonder how much if this sort of behaviour has been learned from the parents of the parents etc..
It not acceptable but I can see that it could be passed on from one generation to the next..
The cycle needs to be broken in these cases..

Correct to a point though i know a few coppers that do.Biggest problem the way i see it is that theres an enormous army of otherwise unemployable do-gooders backing up every piece of shite,seems the victims of said shites crimes pretty much stand alone and face some old cunt thats long since lost touch with the real world.

The cycle will be continued until somebody points out its not acceptable,a few hours community service

it will continue until shit changes so as to not facilitate it. Ie, remove the PROFIT from it all.

I suggest fencing off the Northern Isle for a start.If and when someone fucks up on the mainland we drop them off just North of Picton with a wave and good wishes,if indeed there lucky enough to arrive the gates are opened and you lot can do that foreshore thing.

Maybe these kids should be placed with the Harawiras for some quality role modelling

The judge needs a bloody good talking too.That should sort her out.
