Would it not have been more diplomatic and appropriate to refuse entry and turn them around at the airport? These people are no threat. Perhaps it is time that the Australian Government called on international support to assist it to work with Indonesia in forming a working and...

That ignore list function is great! It has removed the hate from this thread. I can actually read what people have to say - without all that junk in the way. I transfered to a new job a few months ago and put Schapelle picture on the wall of my office. Initially no one said too much...

Sage, kind and good advice. But what you are asking of me (us) is to accept a fate that has been decided by man. A fate decided by a stroke of pen can be undone with a stroke of a pen. Disease cannot, and that is fate. This forum is a waste of time but Schapelle is not a waste of my...

Re: post 821 "Thanks for that" edited: removed part of post as pushing luck. Didn't even notice it until after I received the infraction. It seems some especially antagonist members get a little help from their friends.

Nunthewiser you are an extremely cowardly man. Your post that I questioned was not specifically in relation to Schapelle, it was in relation to all drug smugglers. For the benefit of others, Nunthewiser is well aware that Indonesia passed down a sentence of 10 years to Sibel Yalvac a 21...

No nunthewiser, I am asking you if you view the very young or mentally retarded in the same manner as you view all drug smugglers as per your earlier post. Or do you consider them to be outside the variables.

I posted a question to you in relation to a comment you made earlier - see post 808. Just wondering if you have seen it.

I understand the judgement you make, however what of the cases that fall outside the preconceived idea of what a drug smuggler is. Such as the very young or the mentally retarded? Do you view their cases as being different?

Garbals - sweetie,darling, pet - you didn't respond to my post. Remember, you were warning someone else to be careful of what they said about Indonesian human rights violations, because the content of the threat were upsetting the them. Something about friends in high places in Jakarta...

Extract from an article in the Australian printed yesterday. "Observers rely on very narrow indicators to measure Indonesia's democratic progress, things like press freedom and ratification of international human rights instruments, but what we should really be looking at is the strength of...

I am not concerned about others on this site. Generally speaking there are a lot of flawed ideas based on lack of knowledge of basic principals of law and a general lack of knowledge of the case by the writers. Which in some instances seem to be followed by various attempts to maintain what...

Pilot - where did you source this info from?

Schapelle was found guilty based on the MJ being in her bag and the testimony of a customs officer. All other forensic evidence was simply not available to her to be heard at trial. It is completely appropriate and warranted that the verdict and sentence be challenged. The lack of proper...

:bekloppt: That is an absolutely correct observation Explod. Court statistics back that up.

Preposterous hypothesis, but its better than your Shakespeare poem.
