Army personnel who think getting drunk and torturing things.... is fun..


What the f*** has this to do with aviation other
than proving you are as high as a kite ?


LOL! I suspect that your irony is somehow wasted, though, Keith--JGG won't
be able to figure out the connection to his earlier balther.

Coming from someone who uses fake email addies? ... please when you
learn to be a REAL man then come and debate online, otherwise stay on
the side as a ignored troll.

Bit rich, coming from a dickhead like you ?

It shows how reckless theses people are. Makes one wonder what would
they do if deployed overseas.......and were drunk????

Alcohol is NO EXCUSE for bad behavior.

I have worked with many victims of crimes in the past where alcohol was
involved resulting in many injuries/deaths.

Sexual assaults, rapes, murder and stupid actions occur way to often
from people drinking for "fun".

I also think these army personnel sentences are woeful. Shame on these
thugs for their actions for bringing down the honour and espirt de corp
of the military.

"Six soldiers have pleaded guilty in a Townsville court to acts of
cruelty against a litter of kittens.

The Court heard the cruelty occurred at the Lavarack Base on April 10
this year and their actions were blamed on alcohol.

One of the kittens was dragged behind a motorcycle and then crushed
under the wheel of a four wheel drive. Three others were set alight.


what a discrace. they should be charged for murder. fear dinkum. imagine
being those cats? maybe someone should do the same to them, see how they
like it


Magistrate David Glasgow said the six soldiers from the 10th Force
Support Battalion had brought disgrace and dishonour to the Army and
fined them $2,000 each.

They will also perform 100 hours voluntary work at the RSPCA.

Two of the soldiers also had their drivers licences suspended for six
months.

Mr Glasgow did not record a conviction against the soldiers, noting that
many in the community may not think the decision is strong enough.
The soldiers' defence counsel told the court alcohol
was the cause of many regrettable acts within the armed forces.

Representing five of the six soldiers, Boris Kleiner said
from his experience both as a former reservist and
member of the regular Australian Army, that alcohol-fuelled acts of
bravado and stupidity were part of the armed forces."

Your tax dollars at work.

This is what comes of having a military establishment that isn't held
accountable for much of anything - particularly how it spends the taxpayer's
hard-earned.


Sack the lot of the swine.

Yeah, I wonder what kind of information they were trying to get out of the
kittens.
