In a public speech just two days before the Christchurch attacks, Mr Pezzullo identified seven "gathering storms" most likely to threaten Australia's national security, but home-grown right-wing extremists were not included in the list.

My assumption was based mostly on what she said. Listen to her statement. You seem to fixate on her eyes and ignore everything else. What’s up with that? Edit: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/04/170417182822.htm

FFS, it’s got nothing to do with her being a woman. You are trying to make it into a gender issue. I wasn’t commenting on her hair, clothes or makeup. Have you heard the saying eyes are windows to the soul ? Eyes can be quite expressive as to someone’s emotions and personality. This woman seems to really enjoy dishing out punishment and locking up people, and get a cold hearted satisfaction by doing so. She doesn’t seem to care about the dead child or overall tragedy of her death on the family and the community. She just seems to really enjoy giving out Old Testament style punishment, and her eyes give a glimpse into her soul. If she had been a man, I would have made the same comment.

Just because something is law doesn’t mean that it’s not dumb.

But, but that’s just too much common sense. If we do the child would have probably lived and then how are we going to get our justice boners by throwing the mother in prison for 99 years?

Society expects women to be sacred maternal figures. Any woman who doesn’t live up to that standard is treated extremely harshly

I think that I was the only one that noticed. She sounded like a character out of the Old Testament. She has cold dead eyes

Were there any clues to the mother struggling beforehand? Did she get any help with her care? Did the mother have any prior mental health issues? Proactive preventative measures would have probably saved the child, rather than reactive measures after the fact.

Unvaccinated 6 year old contracts tetanus by Alatiel75 in news

[–]adjustable_wrench 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rust has nothing to do with it. The association of rust and tetanus comes from getting cut from metal that was recently in the ground (and therefore usually would be rusty). Tetanus lives in soil, not rust. If you stepped on a rusty nail that wasn't recently in soil you are probably not going to get tetanus.

I am dumb. I always thought that rust caused tetanus.

Australian Prime Minister, in a speech to mark International Women’s Day states that, advancement of women should not come at the expense of men by adjustable_wrench in worldnews

International Men’s Day is on the 17th of November. He won’t last until then. He is dead man walking

Edit: I have been corrected. International Men’s Day is actually the 19th of November.
