    not true. there are plenty of places for people to come into australia illegally and hide out. the immigration drones might be more active over there but if america can't stop illegals from getting in anywhere with all the money they throw at it then what hope has australia. america might be land connected in parts but both land and beach have their own advantages and disadvantages

    So you think people can live under the radar of the Australian immigration department with ease?! I can tell you from personal experience that you are very wrong. Oh and in terms of arriving on beaches here, have you read the news about the Australian boarder protection boats that actually escort people smugglers back into international waters. Airports and customs here are impenetrable.
    If by any chance you get through all that, you are implying you can just piss off somewhere and live in the wilderness? Who would want to do that?! Have you seen what lives in the wilds of Australia?!

    In the past....when we had far less antisocial behaviour, unprovoked assaults, lawless rampaging gangs of delinquent teenagers. Yeah, that sounds terrible.

    That would be the mythic "none of that in my day" past you're thinking of.

    if your determined to get in and slip under the radar in any country, it can be done.

    So what about punishment shootings? Hard to slip in in under the radar half crippled.

    I suppose their under 18 which means they will get treated more leniently.


  • Registered Users Posts: 231 ✭✭prizefighter


    Sure, for the people that committed the crime. But I'm failing to see what the family did wrong.



    Again, collective punishment is a bit draconian isn't it?

    People agreed with the idea of punishing the parents of kids who don't attend school. Is it such a leap of logic to punish parents of kids who don't abide by the law. In fairness I'd place morality and ethics in higher esteem than literacy or mathematical ability.

    An example needs to be set prison then deport them and there families back to their country of origin .
    Yes the family set the example this behaviour won't be tolerated

    Car jacking and assaulting people, including members of the police force, is not exactly staying under the radar though.

    So you are saying that Ireland in the 30's had gangs of roving juvenile delinquents kicking the piss out of people and burning out cars. Must have missed that episode Reeling in the Years.

    There were barely any cars to burn.

    Do you know what living under the radar would entail in a day to day context. Your name can be on NOTHING no bank acc, credit card, electricity bill, phone bill , no tax number, cash in hand work, avoiding the authorities at every turn so even running a red light could see you sent to detention centre and deported. Sounds like a dream.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,348 ✭✭✭✭ricero


    no we should deport you instead for describing people as "slavs" and its slaves by the way. either way, disgusting comment

    Lol slaves ha

    i didn't and i don't. whatever about sending someone around to physically take the child to school, sending a parent to jail costs the tax payer money that could be put to better use

    yes.

    collective punishment is immoral

    oh you are. not legally, but since when did that stop people.

    If they were caught second time around in Australia the family would be deported for being illegal immigrants. Do you support the deportation of illegal immigrants or is that the actions of a terrorist state?

    no example can be set. only a punishment can be doled out, which is prison hopefully

    As a proud Sinn Fein supporter, do you think punishment shootings are morally superior to collective punishment?

    no, just adults getting drunk and beating the **** out of each other.

    well compared to some of the dumps some immigrants come from, it probably is

    Well if where they come from is that bad you would think that they would have more respect for the Law and the Citizens of their host country instead of acting like two little scumbags.

    It doesn't mention them beating up unarmed civilians. In fact that article highlights that outside of rival gangs these 'animals' were seen as normal people who fed the poor and one saved a drowning woman. So you are sticking to your prior point that Ireland had just as much violent crime and delinquency in the 30's as to now?!

    i'm not bothered by it if its done in a fair and transparent process. i'm not of the delusian though that those who are deported can't come back and slip in undetected. no immigration system is perfect or seal proof no matter how much people delude themselves that the y are.

    So much fail in this thread, 16 yearolds are the responsibility of the parents. If they cannot parent them, then the state needs to either take these ruffians into care or put them in jail and then deport the lot of them to place of origin. As the parents again are responsible for the actions on people under the age of 18. So if their own values support the actions of said under 18s they are not going to be part of a law abiding society. That then would be grounds for deportation, supporting actions of criminals.
