Agreed, thats why civilised countries dont have elections for judges and chief prosecutors. In.au the govt appoints the judges/prosecutors and I dont remeber any significant problems with this approach.
I have to agree. Some years ago in my part of Australia the statute of limitations on child sex abuse crimes was removed. One friend of mine particularly, had suffered terrible abuse, and WAS coping OK. The changes made her relive the horrible experinces that she had more or less forgotten. To this day she has not been able to relate the events to police, and so has no closure. Had the law not been changed she would be better off.

For someone who claims not to be American you sure seem to always have an American point of view.
"There is only one type of football" You mean the boring dreadful soccer I suppose. Aussie rules is a far more excting and interesting game than Soccer. And I grew up a soccer fan in my early years. When I started to watch Aussie rules, soccer just became a lame boring waste of space to me.
Ever hear of Timothy McVeigh? He killed quite a few. Now lets look at the numbers killed in South America by US sponsored terroist groups. Or Afghanistan during the russian invasion. Or in Ireland when US Irish were funding the IRA for amy years only stopping after 9/11. Or thieving Terrosit nation of Israel, using bombs paid for and supplied by the US.
"every person sent there was either captured on the battlefield or in the process of a terrorist action" Surely no one is foolish enough to actually beleiev this. Many of the detainees were sold for reward to US agents. Not even trumped up charges would stand analysis in court.
The biggest issue is babies too young to be vaccinated, can die of these diseases when passed form their older siiblings. Herd immunity is the only way to protect the very young.

Quite correct, these same issues were raised when LPG tanks became populr here, but it is very rare for one to be ruptured, they have to be damn strong just to work, in most cases stronger than any object they are attached to or hit by.
"Citroen used the same idea to power the extensive hydraulics used in their famous suspension systems"
Yeh they sure did. My dear late friend Harry had a big Citroen Pallas, and when the hydraulics failed he ran up the back of the same car twice. Once originally and again when they pulled over to exchange details, the car in front braked too quickly AGAIN and Harry ran up the back of it once more!

Ok I just cant take it any longer. It is "toe" the line not "tow"
Fuck me, it not that difficult, simple common sense and comprehension. Where would you tow the line to?

I have children and I dont see anything wrong here at all. NO child was harmed at all.
Some parents need to grow up themselves.
"Some 120million iOS buyers into one simpleton lable of "young, trendy, willing to spend money"
Sounds like all the iphone owners I know. Truth hurts eh?
Pilots the US end a transmission with their plane's tail number, not "over."
Many countries have aplha designators for their aircraft. Here in Aust, we end the transmission with the name of the area in question.
No you didnt fix it
No really I did, your'e just a clueless moron, trying to put a spin on hiding the truth. You have a long history of this kind of bullshit.
For someone who claims not to be American you sure seem to always have a irrrational point of view.
FT properly FY
You do have my sympathy for your obvious delusional state though.

Given the US govt is dominated by christians, I dont see how you can say nothing to do etc.
The main reason for the IRA struggle was quite certainly two christian religions,
or are youj trying to say there are Protestants in the IRA?
Your claim that islamists kill more is simply laughable.
Yep, they were terrorists too. Funny how when it is terrorists you agree with they are freedom fighters, and when you dont agree they are terrorists.

"a nutjob leader which has openly swore to wipe another off a map"
You do realise that was simply false dont you, A mistranslation of what was said.
Never let the facts get in the way of a biased rant eh?
The US has been bankrolling Israel for years and years now.
How is this different?
NO but they have killed many thousands of Palestinian and Lebanese civlians and used phosphorus against a school.
Israel is a contry founded by a terrorist campaign you know. Look up Irgun or the stern gang, and the King David hotel

Assange is nothing of the sort.
Only to those who support their govenments lying to them. Assange is quite definately a hero to me, and I am proud he is Australian

You realise by world standards none of these sites are actually left wing dont you?
JUst right and far right wing. Americans view of social justice would be laughable if not for its tragic results.

What came first the chicken or the egg?
Actually as an outsidie observer it seems to me that republican women do a fine job of demeaning themselves without any assistance.
They all sound like raving loonies!

If the car is BREAKING it wont go very far anyway.
It it is braking it should be OK.
