It is not a "Smacking Bill". It is removal of a provision that means that parents who are violent to their children are simply not brought before the courts. Maybe it should go further, but it does not. Why all this debate about "Smacking" being some kind of holy ritual is beyond me, but each time you strike your kid you are basically teaching your kid to use tactics and naughty behaviour

Aquittal and Innocence Being let off a crime perhaps describes what happened with OJ Simpson. Although he was also found "not guilty" nobody really believed that he should have been. But the case against him must have failed for reasons rather than imagined reasons. It is entirely different to the Michael Jackson case. For a start, the double OJ murder certainly displayed the usual elements of

The real job There is plenty of outcry in New Zealand about police sitting at the side of the road pointing a speed radar gun at the passing population of frustrated and sometimes frightened drivers. Frightened? The aggression or misbehaviour of many Auckland drivers is indeed a factor in road safety. There is no doubt that road accidents causes more than a reasonable proportion of early death

Personality problem and P use do not constitute legal "insanity". Guilt is established when responsibility can be assigned. Therefore, in criminal cases for minors, or for the mentally incompetent, guilt may not be established beyond a reasonable doubt. In this case a man was murdered by the now convicted defendant, in cold blood to "send a message" to police. The defendant looks wide eyed

Children and Crime in New Zealand When a child turns 17 the law stops protecting and starts stepping in where anti social activity becomes something that is being caused by a person empowered by "society" to make choices. When those choices include hurting other people, the law steps in to protect the other people. Liberal forces will tell us we should be trying to rehabilitate the criminal

Car Theft more difficult Measures bring brought into the law to protect owners of vehicles make it far more difficult to steal cars by hotwiring the ignition.
