I just had a quick look on Rise Up who I hadn't really heard of. A Sri Lankan young earth creationist who is hugely against multiculturalism.
How can a Sri Lankan migrant be against Australian multiculturalism? I can appreciate the arguments against it, but does he not see the irony?
*edit* I kind of get it now I think, he doesn't mind people coming here as long as they assimilate into the culture. |

Mate, if you can to me with a film script about a Sri Lankan young earth creationist who is hugely against multiculturalism, I'd throw you out of the office and tell you not to waste my time with these stupid, unrealistic plot lines. Unless it was a farcical comedy, of course. _________________ �Let's eat Grandma.� Commas save lives! |

^ That's the impression I get too, Swoop. Except the VFL can be fun to watch. Seeing Denis or Daniel on TV has a curious effect on my remote control. _________________ "Every time we witness an injustice and do not act, we train our character to be passive in its presence." – Julian Assange |

^ Really? I thought so too when I first read Swoop's comment, but when you stop and think - who wouldn't swap Ted or Dan or Denis for Abbott or Rudd or Pyne in a heartbeat? No, the locals are crap but the feds are much worse. _________________ �Let's eat Grandma.� Commas save lives! |

The State Penis led LNP have played the Crime Card - "Lock them up forever". This is what you do when you are in serious trouble. |

^ Typical, isn't it. I didn't care much before, but now I'll be quite satisfied to see them lose. _________________ "Every time we witness an injustice and do not act, we train our character to be passive in its presence." – Julian Assange |

An example I heard on Radio, Craig Thomson ripped a Union of $25000 and he gets 1 years jail. A man was convicted of bashing his girlfriend to death yet gets 18 years with a 13 year minimum. Is the murder only 18 - 13 times worse than Thompson stealing? |

Overkill. I wouldn't lock them up forever. At most, they deserve 5 to 10. Abbott, Pyne, Abetz, Cormoran, Sinodinos, Bishop and co, they are the ones you'd lock up forever.
Sorry. Did I misunderstand the question? _________________ �Let's eat Grandma.� Commas save lives! |

Lock Pyne and Krudd in the same 2x2 cell with no interaction with others and see who can whine the loudest.
Then just shoot them both and mulch them for garden fertiliser so they can do something useful finally. |

^ You'd want to do that with 4 foot reinforced concrete walls, otherwise the neighbours would be kept up all night by the racket. _________________ �Let's eat Grandma.� Commas save lives! |

Or, terminate the experiment and go to mulching time after about 10 minutes.
I mean who really cares which of them could whine the loudest, we all know they're both whiners, so lets just spare everyone and move to solution.
Bring in the mulcher. |

I guess whichever one whines the loudest is... actually I'm not going there |

Q. How do you make a cat whine or a dog go meow?
A. Freeze it solid then run it through a band saw |
