So the punishment of the crook is further increased and the victims will feel better still when they hear about it. Christ I love this new minister of justice shes a gutsy hua. Most prison officers smoke so they are going to be grumpy going all day without a smoke so the scum crooks are going to get it. I'm sure the Minister of Justice Simon Power will be pleased you called him a she. Pretty much your usual level of research on Criminal Justice issues though. |

Our plan gives anyone 55 years or older a gun and 4 bullets. You are allowed to shoot 2 MPs and 2 illegal immigrants! Of course, this means you will be sent to prison where you will get 3 meals a day, a roof over your head, central heating, air conditioning and all the health care you need! New teeth - no problem. Need glasses, great. New hip, knees, kidney, lungs, heart? All covered. (And your kids can come and visit you as often as they do now). And who will be paying for all of this? The same government that just told you that they cannot afford for you to go into a home. Plus, because you are a prisoner, you don't have to pay any income taxes anymore. IS THIS A GREAT COUNTRY OR WHAT? |

If I ended up with lung cancer now they would straight away put the blame on smoking and yet I have handled 245T, DDT, asbestos and as a painter god knows what with the dust and fumes. One time they came out with some figures for deaths because of second hand smoke and there wouldn't have been a smoker alive if those figures were true. |
