1383019 2014-09-02 01:39:00 You're missing the point DeSade.

Here's a guy who is physically and mentally unwell, and living on the street trying to get money from WINZ.

Considering that he has been in touch with a bunch of MPs, politicians and who knows who else, considering that he was trespassed from the very WINZ office...
At what point does someone say: Hey this guy needs help!

Why wasn't he sent off to a nut house to be assessed?

If he was "moved" by the police due to complaints, how did they not spot the gun on him?
How did he get his gun?

As B.M. put it: time bomb.

No I understand perfectly.

A rapist is a rapist, it is the rapists fault, not the victim, not his upbringing, not his parents, not society and not the state.

Personal Responsibility

No one is responsible for his or her actions any more and that is the crime, that is the real reason for the explosion of "mental illness" because this PC wave needs to justify removing responsibility from the individual.
My son is school age and he gets certificates for showing up, certificates for listening, certificates for being physically present, When I went to school this was just the norm and expected, we were not rewarded for it and when my father was at school the expectations were higher again and the rewards far fewer.

So yes I do understand. I see the world giving in to the politically correct and everyone suffering because of it. Oh except the Tully's of this world, its really not their fault.........

I'll be honest, my conviction fails when faced with his mothers disapproval over my stance.

You are being very selective with your editing of the information I posted :(

A bit like Labour and the Greens :(

Your credibility went down the gurgler with you.

1383028 2014-09-02 07:14:00 He was obviously mentally unwell

so why hammer him for making poor life decisions .
I would have thought someone living in a car, or homeless, would have been top of the list for a helping hand via welfare or mental health services .

No immigrants, refugees, maoris first, a White NZ born Caucasian, European male will always be at the bottom of the list.
I wonder where he got the shottie from?
