sneak executions

The thought for today isn't really about music at all. In fact it is about how we are all manipulated into believing the things we are made to believe.

Here it is: Down here in Australia there has been an almighty fuss about a guy who just got hung in Singapore for drug trafficking. His name was Van Ngyen. Since he was busted about 3 years ago there has been nothing written about him at all. At least until the Singaporeans killed him that is.

What has happened is that a few other aussies have been arrested in Bali for doing the same thing.

This is where it gets interesting. One of them - Michelle Corby is white and from the Gold Coast where her family are well known for being shall we say dodgy dealers? She was done for having about a pillow case worth of hash in her boogie board bag. She is also pretty good looking and it made a lot of headlines here when she was found guilty.

Later on another foxy chick was arrested but this time she was only half white and her name was Michelle Leslie I think. She had 2 tabs of E and was duly locked up. All the press were behind here until her family paid a bribe and she said she was muslim so that she could get out of stir. When she got back here it was only to be greeted by an outraged press and a few evil sods with axes to grind.

Meanwhile there are 9 kids - yes 9 ! who were shopped to the Indonesian police for smuggling H. About 3 - 5 kilo's each from Bali to Aus. Most are ugly and or Asian in origin. Now here is the interesting part - The Australian Federal Police knew what they were doing because a parent had told them so that they would stop it from happening. Instead they let them go ahead and now they all face the death penalty in Bali. Press coverage is almost non existent at present as they are still waiting to be tried. You better believe it will ramp up when the rifles are loaded.

So what is the point of telling you this?

Well it is a really neat way to execute people without getting bloody hands. It also demonises the "foreign" devils who encourage such barbarism and it also sends a signal to the ethnic minorities that the Aussie Security services are watching and will get you whereever you are. Tidy population control eh?

The moral here is this: If you vote in cynical evil men you get cynical evil policies. Beware!
