      Fuck me I honestly thought this was Betoota.

      There’s no depths he won’t descend too.

      Only children and ethnics should have the book chucked at them and the keys thrown away. /s

      And this says all you need to know about how this party is run. The left and the right hands have no idea what the other is doing.

      Yeah, delinquent kids stuck in dysfunctional families deserve second chances.

      Rape, murder and large scale theft/fraud is not something that should ever be dealt with leniently…

      *“I actually shot this man in question today in front of his wife, with his two children in the next room. So he’s gone, finished,” Hanson told Sky News late on Sunday.*

      And this isn’t satire?

      I don’t want any rapist in a position where they could change the law to make rape legal.

    9. sapperbloggs on

      They left the word “white” out, but we all know that what they really mean is “*white* criminals deserve a second chance”

    10. MajorLeeScrewed on

      The “tough on crime” side of politics. Only when the offender is a different ethnicity, I guess?

    11. EnvironmentalNovel86 on

      His criteria for anyone getting a second chance:

      1. Must be white
      2. Must agree with him politically
      3. Helps if they are a male
      4. If the crime was against a female she was probably asking for it

      But don’t judge him he has wife(s) and daughters so it’s not sexism. Why do people still vote for this bloke?

    13. AShadowinthedark on

      Given the amount of second chances Joyce been given it’s hardly surprising for him to say this.

    14. Notaelephant on

      I honestly don’t think anyone would be shocked by this. You wouldn’t trust this man with your gerbil.

    15. drfrogsplat on

      They do indeed deserve second chances, though one may still consider past actions and character especially for very public roles or ones with a lot of responsibility, and compare that with other candidates…

      It’s just so *weird* there’s no one qualified to do the job for One Nation who isn’t a rapist.

      So rapist’s deserve a second chance, but innocent civilians are fine to be murdered by soldiers?

    19. TizzyBumblefluff on

      Do criminals deserve a second chance? Sure, if they can prove they are rehabilitated but that doesn’t need to be a government paid, elected position. I highly doubt someone who’s been to jail for rape can get a working with children card, so how exactly is this person meant to represent a community when they can’t even visit a polling booth at a school? Or really any other community event.

      This is who he’s taking about :

      “Judge Cash said it was concerning that Black had twice assaulted his then wife while she held their infant son in her arms, or the boy was nearby.

      He said Black had seen her later in the shower and remarked that she “should change her diet because she bruised easily”.

      Judge Cash said Tanya responded that perhaps Black should stop hitting her.

      “This enraged you,” he said.

      The judge said Black then “dragged her out by the hair from the shower” and raped her.”

    22. buckley303 on

      Criminals deserve a second chance, sure.

      But Hanson has never been a politician that champions for redemption and rehabilitation in the criminal justice system. She only says things that suit her at that current point in time, nor does she give a damn about anything but her own self interest.

    23. ShadoutRex on

      There’s a difference between having a second chance to live in a society and allowing that person to have a role in the running of that society.

    24. ActuallyNot on

      >Joyce on Monday argued that convicted criminals deserved a chance at redemption.

      Don’t want to end up a cartoon
      In a cartoon graveyard

    25. YouLykeFishSticks on

      Two timing philanderer who backs up a previous criminal found guilty of electoral fraud thinks people deserve a second chance. On brand as always.

    26. ThunderDwn on

      Criminals might.

      Rapists don’t.

      Go directly to hell,. Do not pas “go”. Do not collect political staffer salary.

    30. WokSmith on

      This attitude sums up right-wing extremists perfectly.
      If someone “on their side” does something horrible, then that person immediately gets the benefit of the doubt and that the crime wasn’t really that bad.

      But if the alleged rapist was Muslim or from a left leaning party, then the outrage would be loud and palpable.

      After all, the staffer is a rapist ffs.

    32. warbastard on

      Barnaby, if this person was in the Labor or Greens you’d go from your normal hue of beetroot to purple.

    33. Zieprus_ on

      Proving they have no morals or ethics just care about the message. Joyce is a fool, atleast someone sacked him though.

    34. chadbigcum on

      Today’s politics is the vague left vs absolute monstrous levels of depravity and there is no middle ground. Conservative politics is nothing more than bigotry now. These are the folks that criminalise people for being 10 years old and brown, or just being a Muslim. Apologising for, no surprise, some white guy.
