Look if refugees didn't exist, we wouldn't have to torture them and they wouldn't have to suffer. It's like pet ownership.

Therefore I move that all refugees should be murdered on arrival in order to save lives.

Outstanding. This could finally be one of the breaking points of many recent actions, being that this single act with all the meaning it carries could force change.

I hope with all of my heart that this single event will either lead to more of such events, or the outright decision that too many have spoken out and they must stay.

Who the gently caress knows what will happen though... And that is one of the worst parts, for all of those 267 refugees who are involved.

Yeah, after Melbourne's Royal Children's hospital refused to send kids back it feels like the whole thing feels like the wheels are starting to come loose. If it's not the last I hope it's at least one in a continuing string of refusals, and calls for the end to detention. I'm just a bit sad that even if it works even in a best case scenario we'll still probably only let in women and children :smith:

I remember a Dawkins v Pell episode that was kinda funny, because Pell could not give less of a poo poo, and Dawkins got real exasperated

I think that one's on Youtube

I just had to climb into my Mum's roof to clean out a dead rat, it was so loving hot and disgusting, there were maggots burrowing into its cheeks and squirming around its mouth, and the entire roof smelt loving awful and the rat fell apart when I went to pick it up. And yet I'd still rather do that again than watch Pell and Dawkins on Q&A.

By 14 i got really obsessed with the concept of "irony" and tried to channel it constantly, until my thought process got really bizarre and i would repeat things like "I'm friends with Cardinal Pell" and "I know Pell. Sociopathic is a lie" in my head for hours, and i would get really paranoid, start seeing things in the corners of my eyes etc, basically prodromal schizophrenia.

Hmm maybe being in a carpark implies you are about to get out and walk or just did that. Its absolutely not the cars fault if a distracted idiot walks out in front of them. Saying a carpark is not a place for cars is actually retarded

Is it the cars fault if someone walks out onto a zebra crossing on a road without looking and gets hit cause the car couldnt physically stop in time?

Legally yes. When you're approaching a zebra crossing and there are people near enough that they can jump in front of your car, you should have stopped.

Except that most human beings arent beep boop robots that just blindly jump out into a crossing and there is a mutual understanding (as motorists are often also pedestrians at times, and vice versa) that when approaching a crossing you should still look to the right before embarking on what is a potentially lethal adventure. I was taught that at school - was anyone else?

Im not anti pedestrian or anti cyclist but you guys are super anti-car and the mental gymnastics you're going through to make the argument that cars=evil pedestrians=angelic beings is hilarious.

And yet some people will just walk into a crossing without looking. Guess what? Tough poo poo, you have to make sure you don't hit them.

How are you guys approaching pedestrian crossings that this is a major problem? Most of the time they're built in spots specifically so that drivers can see people getting ready to go across.

This isn't a "cars are bad" stance, it's a, "you guys must be loving poo poo drivers" stance.
