Advocates for a genocide have no standard they will not violate. They are, after all, advocates for a genocide.

- Comment on Create a race to the bottom in the rental market 9 months ago:
Housing costs, rental or purchase, are only resolved by supply and ending real estate's position as an investment vehicle.
That means large scale public housing investment to the point that it actively devalues property on a capital value bases. Rental yields are already a poor investment on their own. That leaves the "just park the money" crowd with a simple choice: sell now or watch it depreciate.

Ask any former employee about just how much those comments were not out of context.
Horman’s been awful for years. She just decided to be publicly awful this time.

- Comment on NSW car crash involving detective charged with drink-driving is being probed by police watchdog 11 months ago:
The senior officer – who can only be referred to as AB for 40 years due to a court order – was charged with high-range drink-driving before police announced the incident in November. His employment status is under review.
Well chosen court ordered pseudonym because "a bastard" really doesn't narrow it down.

Good to see this. The Accord should never have been established. Concessions to police demands should never be the reward for police violence.

- Comment on Since colonial times Australia has been an incarceration nation where lock ’em up is preferred to rehabilitation – Julianne Schultz 11 months ago:
We’ve actually got an even bigger private prison issue than the US by proportion.
Nearly 40 per cent of Victoria’s prisoner population is housed in three privately managed prisons – Port Philip Prison, Ravenhall Correctional Centre and Fulham Correctional Centre. As a consequence, Victoria has the largest proportion of privately managed prisoners in Australia, while Australia has the largest proportion in the world.
The lobby doesn’t have quite the same financial clout just on population size but it’s a significant factor in Australia’s modern handling of the issue.
