I don't believe a cause can be justified, no matter how sensitive the issue, no matter how important it is to victims, if for the good of the cause the occasional innocent gunned down in the cross fire, is considered acceptable. (Maybe I am being narrow-minded)
If people believe in something strongly enough then they can take matters into their own hands when all reasonable avenues have been exhausted, however in this instance the police were never involved, and I would think that contacting them would have been an important step, which is what Xenophon told all those abused people that called his office today.
My core point is that people should still have to be proven guilty of a crime Hutch, before being shamed, and I cannot see how we can logically abandon that principle.
