    You seriously think that judges are being let down by low max sentences? What planet are you on?

    Interesting to see on Breakfast today they are no longer referring to it as a MSSA but a semi auto firearm.

    They are let down by both the minimum and maximum sentences that they have to adhere too. I personally know 2 judges in this country who if they could would be dishing out far more severe sentences but they can not. The law does not allow them to.

    No one is going to believe that.

    If I ad my way minimum would be increased 3x maximum 2x but then how do we pay for this? Tax increases that is how. What Govt in power is going to say on election year lets increase penalties but as a result there will be a tax increase? NONE that's how many. So judges sit there fiddling their fingers at sentences.

    As New Zealand has seen many of our core services outsourced - both government and private sector, I suggest we outsource custodial sentences.....to China or Saudi Arabia.... we pay a "general living expense" for the criminal to be "looked after"....for life. The receiving country can then determine how the convict is treated We could even send them first class....

    @Jexla out of curiosity, are you actually the woman portrayed in your profile picture? Or is it a guide to make people have a different perception of you to make your comments and arguments easier in ways? In no way am I trying to offend you, but you certainly don't act like the girl portrayed would.

    Macca, I most certainly am a 6 foot 2 black guy in a yellow suit. Keep an eye out for me at the range, I had my tailor make me one for every day of the week, all different shades of yellow. That photo was taken on a Tuesday in case you were wondering ("woundering" for old mate Lee at DPS)
