Some person sent in a letter to the paper today, and they didn't even bother writing ONE SINGLE WORD - they lifted the text from a book. <BR/><BR/>It was the LONGEST LETTER in the paper. And it was the usual fatuous comparison of Australia to Nazi Germany - 'we are becoming like them', that sort of crap. <BR/><BR/>I think I need ANOTHER drink. Actually, we all do. Drinks for everybody!!!!TimThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10333303180015967125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7529903.post-1138014662377248782006-01-23T22:11:00.000+11:002006-01-23T22:11:00.000+11:00*offers Rachy a drink**makes soothing sounds**offers Rachy a drink*<BR/>*makes soothing sounds*Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03417138778733226637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7529903.post-1138005911427233052006-01-23T19:45:00.000+11:002006-01-23T19:45:00.000+11:00I'm not condoning the state of affairs in Australi...I'm not condoning the state of affairs in Australian detention centres, but it really fucking riles me when people compare them to gulags. Considering that letter came from an otherwise intelligent person how the hell do conclusions like this get drawn? To make a sensationalist point methinks, and to bring those not versed in the horror of Soviet history onto one's own side.
