When I read the commentary on these threads , its no wonder that decent Aussies are loosing all faith in politics and what, as a country and communities, fair and equitable governments can do for us and what we can contribute to that. It depresses me to witness posters on these threads abuse & defame others. One has to ask why?
i was brought up to speak well of others unless there was overwhelming evil evident. IMO, neither sides of politics or the majority in the middle are particuluarly evil like dictators of the 20th C.
We have a wonderful country and we should not allow ratbags and terrorists to destroy that. Fair /middle of the road commentary on these threads seems to be bullied out by extremists from both sides, IMO In history there is very little difference between Far Right bullies & Far Left bullies (eg: Stalin & Hitler).
