Hi Gary140857 I have followed these threads and I can not recall a poster suggesting Machine gunning and then Burning the Boats. It is not Hatred being expressed by most posters myself included but A big dissapointment in the way the governments are handling this and the Ungratefull attitudes of a lot of these Queue Jumping so called refuggees who arrive with No IDs I am all for towing them back to Indonesian waters disembark them ( With Indonesias permission ) and then disable the boat A few trips like this would soon make others think about the folly of their efforts Cheers Towie
