No.. and I am pretty sure that you have missed the point.... I offered an opinion based on knowledge and capacity, and on any sensible analysis on what I offered, it is correct.

You on the other hand offer no evidence, facts or information that can be relied on to form a legitimate opinion. You only have a perception based on random unqualified pieces of media information, you offer no statistical understanding and no apparent understanding that media reports are based on statistically extreme pieces of information and bear no real reflection of the day to day situations, and normal performance.

You apparently have no ideal that our prison populations are at the highest levels ever and our offending rate/1000 people has been dropping consistently for years as well as has the total offences reported. (At least up to 2012). That don't sound like weak kneed judges to me, unless of course your argument was that they are obviously weak kneed because they respond to political and public perceptions, even when the stats apparently don't require it. But I am pretty sure that isn't what you meant.

So what you know about the normal day to day work done by judges in this country doesn't appear to stack up. Based on what I know, you have a pretty weak case for your latest attempt at a legitimate opinion.

Poorly created and uninformed perceptions aint opinions. The're just feelings.
