[Colby Cheer Squad]

Sadly, somebody is going to have to die in one of these attacks before there are any changes to sentencing.

 

[The Law]

I thought they came down hard on these incidents in an attempt to deter one punch assaults...

He's been slapped on the wrist with a wet lettuce leaf. disgrace.

The Law has spoken

I’m pretty sure that the maximum sentence hasn’t ever been given to a coward puncher.

 

[King Corey]

Repulsive outcome.

Wishing both defendant and magistrate a dose of unsure footing next time they cross the train tracks.

 

[the big lebowski]

Bet he doesn’t even pay the whole fine amount.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Called it last week. Out of pocket a few dollars, slap on the wrist, and a "don't do it again".

Justice system down there is absolutely ****ED! Disgraceful

 

[Jimmy's Hot Dogs]

Michael Christian moonlighting down at the magistrates court?

 

[amaz199]

You know this state is ****ed when speeding has more repercussions than almost knocking a bloke out cold for good.

 

[StiffArm]

Lol imagine thinkin Assault is more serious than Affray. Never been in a serious scrap ey champ?

Weird flex.

No I haven't been in a serious scrap because I'm not a Muppet that isn't in control of my emotions.

25 grand is a few dollars? How much money you got.. I cant buy a beer with a few dollars.

The punishment was too light. Do we know what Order he was put on?

 

[DuckYeah]

Felt for sure that he was going to get a jail term after some of the language the judge used for the bloke who didn't even throw any punches.

“Your conduct was nothing short of reprehensible, you acted in a vile, repugnant and utterly stupid manner. If you engage in this sort of conduct again in the future, short of a miracle, you will be jailed for a substantially long time,”

And yet not even a suspended sentence.

If he wasn’t thrown in the clinker, then he has to be on an ICO? Right? … there has to be something missing from all this because in my experience, you aint getting off that if its an unprovoked attack.

 

[DuckYeah]

How does controlling your emotions stop someone else from snotting ya? Jack has control of his emotions? Look at what happened there

Can’t get suspended sentences anymore

Can’t get ICO’s anymore

 

[DuckYeah]

Can’t get ICO’s anymore

Whatever the equivalent is?

Wouldn't suggest Jack was in a "scrap"

He was attacked and couldn't defend himself.

Log off for a week or two.

Not being an insufferable douchebag for the most part is what stops someone else from snotting me. And having the ability to de-escalate I guess because my ego isn't tied up in weird-ass macho behaviour.

There's no winning from being in a street fight. If you feel the need to fight do it in a martial art in controlled conditions. All the adrenaline and none of the consequences.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

The term ‘manifestly inadequate’ comes to mind.

 

[gokangas]

The term ‘manifestly inadequate’ comes to mind.

Be interesting to see if there is an appeal. Media certainly questioning the sentence.

 

[Masked Avenger]

The term ‘manifestly inadequate’ comes to mind.

How would you know that?

You haven't even met me.

The judges decision or sense of self that feels the need to participate in physical violence for validation?

I’ll take both for $1,000.
