One for the good guys

[skipper kelly]

It is hilarious that Slater and Gordon get $600,000 and the 47 get to share $100,000.

Pretty smart bunch one thinks.

 

[skipper kelly]

so true.

Being so brave Im sure after reading the article he went to the nearest police station and taunted them.

 

[mickeytg]

Yeah cause the cops have such a great track record of chasing down petty thieves.

Why the hell would I waste my time calling those useless pricks?

cool, give me your adress and I'll come and get all your belongings that you have bought with my tax money over the past 20 years.

 

[MagpieScouser]

what about the damage the idiots done to cars and property,who paid for that,i cant belive my tax dollars are going to pay for these morons to get compo,this is a joke

the bracks government has a lot to answer for

 

[skipper kelly]

Have you seen the footage of S11 PC? Police took off their name badges. The law doesn't recognise them as police officers unless their name badges are on. They then proceeded to club people with their batons. They deserve to be criminally prosecuted for doing that because without their badges they are subject to the same laws as everyone else.

I love these wannabee law students.

An insurance company paid for it. Slater and Gordon take out these class actions knowing that the costs will skyrocket and the big business or govt will eventually give in.

$600 000 transfered from the public purse to Slater and Gordon.Yep,they really stuck it to the man.

whats to stop these G20 morons from doing the same

 

[MightyFighting]

But I am not protesting about corporate greed

Greed and accepting money aren't the same thing.

 

[MightyFighting]

Were they treated in the same way?

Nothing. The ambulance chasing fleas at Slater and Gordon will do exactly the same thing and get the same result.

Well done Victorian Governments, you played right into the hands of these morons and now we have to pay for it. FWIW most of these protestors don't care about the plight of the poor man - they are passionately jealous that people can make money by working and not sitting around smoking bongs and creating hate amongst themselves. Thats all they are - mass haters.

Interesting this has set a precedent now where these cowards will glee in being able to destroy public property and hold violent protest and get compensation if one police officer attack them.

And I agree if the protesters really where passionate about the greed - they would donate most of the money to OXFAM or some charity and continue on their way. As it stands the money will be spent on booze, drugs and whatever else it takes to sustain these drop kicks.

Now lets await for damages to be awarded to imbecile who attacked the police van.

 

[- PC -]

I will clarify one point. Good luck to the SBS cameraman and I hope he spends his money wisely

 

[plugger47]

I'll rather spend time with Cops than suffer watching Melbourne

Yes well your mob are the Cop Outs. The pay out is a real victory for justice. Cops are supposed to be subject to the law. Too bad for old Laura Norder though

That's the thing, you guys seem to want to assume that everyone who the police bashed was a troublemaker.

And as for telling people what to do with their own money...

 

[Demonic Ascent]

Still looking for that elusive job hey?? or have you been at Uni for the past 20 years trying to get your "Arts Degree"? lol

The refuge of the ignorant and stupid. "OMG your just a stupid uni student wait til you get to the real world."

I laugh at idiots like you. You have no understanding of the world or your own existence besides the cardboard cutout life you are told is so good by the government and the corporate-controlled mainstream media. I went to uni for 1 year over 5 years ago. And I've been working since I was 15. So looks like you stuffed up.

Got any other revelatory words of wisdom youd care to share with us?

cool, give me your adress and I'll come and get all your belongings that you have bought with my tax money over the past 20 years.

Your tax money only goes to buy my drugs, booze etc. Everything in my house was bought with money that I earned. Thats the great thing about getting paid under the counter. I earn cash, pay no tax and take your tax all at once.

The courage of the internet.

What? To allow cowards like yourself to defend the use of unlawful force by representatives of the state?

Being so brave Im sure after reading the article he went to the nearest police station and taunted them.

Why would I go out of my way to get myself arrested? Having said that I've never taken any **** from a pig just because they have a gun and a badge. I treat them with the same contempt I have for the rest of humanity. Actually even more considering they are only 0.5 of a rank higher than dog **** on the evolutionary scale.

But I guess you are one of the sheep who cowers before these cerebrally-challenged meatheads simply because they have a weapon and badge, right? The people I went to school with who ended up being cops were some of the dumbest people in the entire school. 3 of them were functionally illiterate for all practical purposes. Can't say I was too surprised.

Get an education yourself before referring to people as "morons". You know literacy, grammar etc.

 

[Monkster]

Cops are supposed to be subject to the law.

So are protestors

 

[dan warna]

Sure there are bad cops but demonising the police force for a few bad eggs is dissapointing.

99.9% of what the police do is good stuff.

As I thought. All talk no substance.

Hopefully this will teach the pigs to keep their batons to themselves next time and accept that copping piss in the face goes with the territory of being a police officer.

How excellent that the protestors are supporting ambulance-chasing scumbag lawyers! Most of them probably have parents working there!

I'm uncertain and perplexed about who pays. The above newspaper report says,

"It is understood agreement was reached when the event's insurers -- who will cover the payout -- bowed to the prospect of even higher legal costs. And authorities caved in to concerns that even if they beat the protesters and were awarded costs, they would not have been able to get the money from them." The Sunday Herald Sun also reported in the article on” a secret payout by the Bracks Government.” Does this mean the Victoria Government made the payment using the insurer’s money…. What else could it mean?

Can somebody who actually knows how these work explain who took out the insurance and who paid for it?

I presume it depends on the fine print on the insurance deal. (In other words, we donno.)

The "slow" kids at your school went on to become cops? At my school they went on to become teachers which is even more frightening..

Only haters who are angry that they are not allowed to run through the streets willy nilly hate the cops. Just b/c you are not allowed to go around smashing windows screaming "corporate greed" doesn't mean you need to hate. Most people applud the actions of the cops towards scum like you.

Whats wrong...jelous someone is maki8ng money and you're not..poor diddums. ****en free loader. Go do some decent work rather than dedicate your sad existence to university and then try to convince the rest of us that an "arts degree" is an education.

hahaha the first thing you would do if you were followed by a bunch of thugs is run straight to a cop shop and plead for them to help you.

You remind of those punks in the 80s who were cop haters but used to run into the first available cop shop and hide behind the counter when skins used to chase them.

All talk which makes all your comments laughable!
