The Salt Mine: Dig Deep, Stay Salty

[true believer]

More deflection and debunked sensationalism lord help us 😒

You really need to find a more fulfilling outlet for your frustrations but I suspect you actually get off trying to provoke others into outraged reactions, so way to go champ.

so much winning

I thought I would go check out what Ads all of the candidates have running on Facebook. Turns out there are very few Coast specific commitments being made thus far.

RIP Linford Feick​

Stabbed to death by an 18 year old indigenous man, 7 days after the 18 year old was granted bail for serious offenses on the 17th of April, a week later he stabs and kills a 71 year old family man because the old man demanded the stuff he stole be returned.

The Australian has since reported that those offences are: two counts of aggravated assault, three counts of rape, depriving a person of their personal liberty, sexual intercourse with a child under 16, assaulting and resisting police, and spitting on an officer or emergency worker.

I hope this is enough for people to say, f**k Labor.

We've tried living in your fantasy land and all that happens is good people get stabbed to death by dregs of society.

3 COUNTS OF RAPE AT 18 YEARS OLD

Sorry but you lost me at why this is Labor's problem.

Dont Queensland have a tough on crime LNP Government? Dont the States have consitutional jurisdiction for law and order? I agree completely that the planet may not miss this piece of filth but this is a failure of State policy and their judiciary. No one else.

Labor didnt give him bail

Oh yes, the States choose judges and magistrates too. Unless its for Federal Court.

TBH I do not even blame the state government. It happens in every state with every state government of whatever political stripe. The problem lies with why he was out on bail when he was obviously a dangerous person. His race is irrelevant, his actions aren't.

We keep on strengthening laws and supposed sentences but then we let people that shouldn't be out on bail and impose soft sentences that do not match the severity of the crime.

Doesn’t matter who gave him bail. That’s a distraction. This is what happens under a justice system shaped by years of weak on crime Labor ideology, rehab over jail, second chances over community safety.

You reckon it’s just the judge’s fault? Who do you think influenced the laws, the sentencing guidelines, the whole soft-on-crime mindset? Labor. Every time they’re in power, they water it down more.

3 rapes. Sexual assault of a child. Released. And now a man is dead.

Spare me the jurisdiction talk. This is the result of your side’s obsession with reforming monsters instead of locking them up.

You want to split hairs while good people bleed.

Labor was elected as the Majority in the following elections in the NT

2001 Labor won
2005 Labor won
2008 Labor won
2012 the Country Liberal Party won
2016 Labor won
2020 Labor won
2024 Country Liberal Party won

Which Party has been influencing sentencing guidelines in QUEENSLAND AND NORTHERN TERRITORY the most for the past 24 years, buddy?

1. In your view, how long does the Liberal Party need to be in power for you to assign singular blame to complex multivariate issues?

2. What are your thoughts on it taking this tragedy for the Country Libs to introduce urgent legislation to pass new bail laws to bring the territory in line with Victoria and NSW?

How long do the Libs need to be in power before I hold them accountable? Long enough to undo the systemic issues created over decades of Labor's justice reform. You don’t reverse 20 years of policy drift toward leniency in a single term. Labor’s approach, emphasizing rehabilitation over accountability, shaped the shitshow we’re dealing with today.
Why did it take this tragedy for the Country Libs to act? Because any move to tighten laws is immediately met with resistance from legal advocates, activist groups, and progressive voices who dominate the debate. It takes a tragic event like this to cut through that resistance and push reform forward.
The second you mention jail, the bleeding hearts scream “racist,” “coloniser,” “inhumane.” It takes horror like this, the brutal, preventable murder of a 71-year-old, to finally break through the bullshit.

Thanks for responding.

Not sure this holds up though? Given Labor passed legislation tightening bail laws in March 2023 and when elected the Libs passed Declans Law in week 1 to little resistance further strengthening them.

So Labor walked back their stance when they realised it was f**king stupid and wasn't working then the Libs implemented even more bail reform to fix Labor's f**king stupid policies and it still wasn't sufficient yet? Wow!

Ease up tiger. I largely agree with the moves and reform.

All I want to challenge is hyperpartisanship.

But I feel a bit like I'm wrestling with a pig. So carry on.
