Peter Hollingworth, Lindy Chamberlain,

Sir John Kerr, Justice Lionel Murphy, Christopher Skase, and now Sheik Hilali were hounded as if we were a pack of mongrel dogs. Where was the pack when men were yelling out to women "Show us yer tits"? Where is the pack when generally a guy slinks into a porno video shop and hires a porno generally about women demeaning themselves? Where is the pack against prostitution and strip joints? Where is the pack against the producers of pornography and hard core porn computer games? This morning I heard Carl of ice skating fame on Ch 9 telling Mr Kaisar Trad "We demand better; You have to tell your leaders to pull their finger out and get them to realise they cannot talk about our women as meat." Good one Carl. Where were you telling the spokesmen for the Catholic Church "We demand better; You have to tell your Archbishop that he can't say that about homosexuality?" Where were you Carl telling the Union leaders "We demand better; You have to tell your members they cannot scream out 'Show us yer tits' from the top of their construction site"? Where are you Carl telling the suppliers of film making products "We demand better; You have to tell your buyers they cannot make porn"? Where are you Carl telling the Advertising Council "We demand better, you have to tell your members they cannot use titillating images to sell cars or ice-cream"? You're pretty silent Carl, I can't hear you. There are too many of them and they are too big are they? You are brave enough only to hunt in a pack against an individual like Lindy Chamberlain and Sir John Kerr and Justice Lionel Murphy and former GG Peter Hollingworth and now Sheik Hilali.

What an inspiring and forthright post.

I too was distressed when Peter Hollingworth was bullied by those whingers claiming they were being abused. They obviously didn't understand that they were appealing to a servant of the Lord who quite rightly wanted no part of their grubby claims for compensation and told them to go away. It is the same with Sheik Halili, this pious man is trying to uphold our morals by stopping these scantily dressed harlots who lure gangs of innocent young men into vile orgies and then have the impertinence to complain to the police. Christopher Skase too, all those bullies trying to get money off him. Their naked greed greed and harassment drove this poor man to an early grave.

Let us pray together that these injustices are reversed.
