Boy pleads guilty to driving car in hit-and-run incident

Very true – all too often nowadays do we see people not willing to take responsibility for their actions.

Still won’t make it any easier for the friends and family of Clea.

Murder charge sounds appropriate, but he is a minor, so don’t expect too much. Some penalty to the parents would be nice to see.

I think it’s honourable that this young kid has stood up and pleaded guilty, when he could have asked for leniency, pleaded insanity, or just off his face with whatever drug he will find hard to access in prison.

Good on ya. Stand up and be counted, be responsible for your actions.

Now it’s time to repent those actions, but at least he’s done the right thing. (from this viewpoint)

He should have ‘Murderer’ tattooed on his forehead and spend the rest of his life as a phlegm recepticle in Garema Place. On days off he gets beaten with big fuckin’ sticks.

In all seriousness though, my thoughts are with the Rose family at this time. Words cannot descirbe the pain.

I like it.

The kid behind the wheel of the stolen car was running away from the cops at high speed in a shared vehicle/pedestrian zone. In short, he did the equivalent of discharging a gun in a public area – a car is a dangerous weapon under these circumstances. The kid deserves nothing short of a murder charge…

As a penalty, maybe a public hanging in Garema Place might be enough of a deterrant to other kiddies. And it would add ‘vibrancy’ to the centre of the city as 10,000 blood lusting Canberrans came out to watch…

Rule of the gun Kerces?

Lucky I refreshed and read gingermick’s comments. Otherwise I was all prepared to complain that I’d battled all the way through that damn article and was still no closer to understanding rule 303.

Seems fair to me, and cheaper.

Thanks jb. You just pipped me at the post.

Sorry. .303 inches was the calibre of the Lee Enfield rifle.

“Rule 303” was the one quoted by Breaker Morant in his dealings with pesky Boer farmers.

There is no appeal once applied.
