    Boston Marathon Explosions

    Doesn't any violence inherently intimidate? Terrorism is any violence by anyone other than the state, for any purpose. It's a term used so liberally, where greenpeace and sea shephard are terrorists, that it's devoid of any obvious meaning or purpose, other than affirming the state as the only...

    Gillard cuts $2.8b from unis

    Is the answer zero times a year? Other than this cut, I can't remember the last time university funding was reduced. As I recall, Labour since 2008 has raised the fees the cap on course fees, introduced the student services and amenities fees, and significantly expanded access to youth...

    Is Australia racist?

    What if I dislike Australia, but I dislike everywhere else even more? What if my friend is a jerk, but the alternative accomodation is a gulag. It seems like objectively this is one of the best country, but it's really just the best by meeting bare minimum standards of decency, everywhere else...

    Rape appeal for "cultural differences"

    Re: Rape! It's ok if you're a Muslim! I'm confused, isn't the guy in the op currently in prison? How are appeals normally determined in our society? Are applications to appeal rejected for other reasons?

    If you could carry a concealed weapon would you?

    That's right. Legal aside, I've been thinking about the practicality of 'appropriate force'. Does someone threatening you justify unlimited retalitory force? Like kfnmpah is talking about being hassled by lads and pulling a gun in self defense, which is really escalating the situation, and...

    Drug Legalisation

    Most prevalent diseases in the Western world are 'lifestyle' diseases, why should drug addicts be excluded from hospitals and not other people whose lifestyles contributed to poor health? Is it just drug addicts that will be excluded from hospitals, or any drug user? What if a drug addict has...

    Is This Car P-Plate Legal?

    Why do you want a luxury car? They are for old people. Just get a corolla or something. A hilux workmate is a nice car.

    So what are you guys playing at the moment?

    What do you actually do in skyrim for hundreds of hours? I finished the main quest line once, and it was pretty good, but I have minimal desire to go back. I could still do the major side quests like the thieves guild, companions I guess. By the time you've unlocked any of the high level...

    IT in the Defence Force.

    What makes you think you'll pay less tax? Unlikely you'll get 60-70k starting out, maybe after a few years training. IDK what job you're applying for though, maybe there is one paying that much.
