Why do victimless crimes attract a victims of crime levy?

Story 1:
I got hit with a $150 fine for not wearing a bike helmet 10m from my garage door.

Tried to challenge it. Lost.
Fine increased so much that the VCL was more than the original fine.


Story 2:
Several years ago, a relative of mine was stabbed to death while at work managing a hotel in Hindley St.

His son, troubled with serious mental illness, had lost his prime carer so we applied for victims of crime compensation on his behalf. We were told that he was not eligible because he was not the victim, his dad was.


Great system.

I saw a guy at the shops earlier who looked like the love child of Taylor Walker & Christian Bale.
I know that sounds stupid but trust me, it's the only way to describe this person.
It made uncomfortable.

Think for one second? What the f@%k are you doing? Do I walk around and - no, shut the f@%k up, Stu Man. Do I - no! NO! Am I going to walk around and stare at you in the middle of the shops? Then why the f@%k are you looking right at me? Ah-da-da-dah, like this. What the f@%k is it with you? What don't you f@%king understand? You got any f@%king idea about, hey, it's f@%king distracting having somebody walking up behind me in the middle of the f@%king shops? Gimme a f@%king answer! What don't you get about it? OHHH, GOOOOD FOR YOU!!! F@%k's sake man, you're amateur. Eddie Dingle, you got f@%king something to say to this prick? Somebody should be f@%king watching and keeping an eye on him. It's the second time that he doesn't give a f@%k about what is going on in aisle six, alright? I'm trying to f@%king do my shopping here, and I'm going "Why the f@%k is StuMan looking at me? What is he doing there?" Do you understand my mind is not on the shopping list if you're doing that. Stay outta the f@%king shops man. For f@%k's sake. You're unbelievable, man. You're un-f@%king-believable. StuMan, I'm going to f@%king kick your f@%king ass if you don't shut up for a second! Alright? I'm f@%king serious. You're a nice guy. You're a nice guy, but that don't f@%king cut it when you're bullshitting and f@%king around like this at the shops. Seriously, you and me, we're f@%king done shops-wise. F@%king ass...

The best Christian Bale story I heard/read: at the American Psycho wrap party he got up and said a few words in his native accent, the vast majority of cast and crew thought he was putting it on for his next role.

The best Taylor Walker story I heard: countless DO YOU KNOW WHO HE IS BRAH?! fauxltercations by members of his entourage

Because the Victims of Crime Fund is surprisingly low on money. Who could have known?

The guy dropped the ball like 2 yards out. That is one of the dodgiest things i've ever seen. It wasn't even close to a touchdown. What the hell?

 

[bomberclifford]

Yep and that's just the sanitised concise version.
It's astounding how ****ed up the bureaucratic machine can be at times.

It was hilarious watching them all dancing and celebrating, completely oblivious to the shenagins behind them.

Seen it happen in the NFL as well. Showboating receivers are professional sport's stupidest people.

I get really angry these days brother. No one had suggestions.
