Absolutely not. That's fair comment.
Vice versa, if the Iranian religious police would demand a woman be
extradited for having an extramarital relationship and sleeping with an
X-tian hence being eligible for stoning to death under sharia law -- how
would we feel about that? Should we clap her in jail with no bail? Send
her to Teheran, gift wrapped? Sleeping around is not a crime in this
country.
Would the cops rush in with swat teams and black helicopters?
There are countless so called business people in NZ who have done worse
to their investors than that Mr. Dotcom has to the entertainment
industry (assuming that the allegations against him are true, which I
think has to be taken with significant doubt: ffs, the guy was employing
high powered lawyers to make sure he was NOT getting into hot water) and
I don't see _them_ being held in prison without bail. There's clearly an
'example' being set up for a witch-burning here, regardless of how
guilty or innocent he is.
What *particularly galls* is that when we, the citizens, need the cops,
they aren't there. The convicted pedophile from up the road, stalking a
13 year old girl, the cop didn't want to know when the parents reported
it. The kids with guns walking around on my place shooting at livestock,
the cop didn't want to know about. A friend had his house cleaned right
out, the cop said: "why did you come to US?" when the friend said he
didn't need the piece of paper for the insurance. I kid you not.
Some louts came in and shot some of my stock and took them away, the
cops didn't want to know until I went to the area commander. Then the
cop denied the perpetrators had had a gun when 3 of my neighbours had
seen them. Didn't even bother to interview the eyewitnesses. I called
111 on the cell when I saw a guy getting the **** kicked out of him,
covered in blood on the ground outside a pub, no cops ever showed up in
over 1/2 an hour that I stayed near by (hey, I wasn't getting mixed up
in THAT) ... by the same token I've seen a couple of cops pepperspraying
a handcuffed intellectually handicapped guy in the streets of Kaikohe
who was not offering them any resistance (although he had rolled himself
out of the cop-car at an intersection). All of this in the last 10
years.
But the FBI whistles and they bring out the Big Guns. Literally. I am
****ED OFF with those arseholes. I have no respect left for the nz
police. None. I will not be surprised if the whole thing turns out like
that 'east coast terrorists' debacle, in the end.
Not saying Dotcom is guilty or innocent, I haven't a clue. But I do know
that the 'armed offenders' are looking more and more like terrorists
than like the 'good guys'. The mere fact of how they go about hiding
their identity and their faces really says it all.
Ffs.
