Last week, we asked you about the scandal surrounding s***** assault allegations in Parliament and your own experiences with s** education in Australia. Here are some reader responses:
Morrison could not condemn until he spoke to his wife? What sort of ignorant person is he that he cannot recognize that r*** is unacceptable?
Dutton with his “he said, she said” comment appalled me. In addition, neither have made any comment on the information that the incident was reported to the AFP. I find the entire story, and the subsequent information about other assaults, really distressing.
Me: I read that in Australia, if a man is accused of r***, the police charge him and leave it to the courts to decide if the man is guilty or not
The Prosecution have a 98% success rate at finding men guilty of s** offenses and women, 95% – would you bet on a horse winning its race at such poor odds – me neither.
The people who instigated these laws are the same people who have themselves now been fingered for r*** and here they are crying not true and not fair, when they did not give a monkey’s damn when their laws applied to other men, but not them.
I say the police should interview these men and have them charged, as is the norm (take Cardinal Pell for example) and let the courts decide their guilt or innocence, taking into account the 98% success rate that the Crown has in cases like these.
What is good for the Goose, is good for the Gander, no matter whatever position he has in Government, or anywhere else.
Doing anything else sends a clear message that the laws only apply to those most unable to defend themselves on actions said to have occurred years ago, where nobody was witness and the word of the female is taken as truth.
One gives you ten, there will be more accusations against these people who hold themselves above the law – and if someone fingered Dutton, that would certainly be a bonus – if he has an English background, he should be deported after his punishment is served, just to show everyone is under the hammer, him included……..
