I think the problem is that any change in the way law is judged applies to everyone. A government in the future could use it's absolute power through the judiciary for reasons other than justice. Exactly, whilst I don't have a problem with deporting criminals when they have served their sentence, I do not agree with further punishing people who aren't criminals, such as their children and wives.

Explain to me why it is a dangerous concept for us to want to deport rapists/murderers? Compare and contrast with eg Iran/Saudi where it is legal to chop off thieves hands, throw gay people off a cliff, behead blasphemers etc? I'm confused......... I don't have an issue with deporting them. However they do have family, and I am against by default punishing their wives, children and husbands etc by first imprisoning them, and then deporting them and separating them further. Now if the wife / husband and kids want nothing to do with the father /mother after their sentence, fair enough, but I don't believe in separating families unnecessarily. The problem isn't you're abusing the rights of the offender, but that you're potentially abusing the rights of people who have committed no crime.

The rights of a small handful of people (his family) are outweighed by the rights of the rest of the population to have the c*nt removed from their midst. That's been the problem all along - the rights of society as a whole being subordinated to those of an individual or a tiny group.

We should all be afforded equal rights but at the risk of sounding like Mr Spock, the needs of the many must take priority where safety is concerned.

Australia will deport you despite having your family there and even if you've been living there since a month old, if you break the law.

I think that would undermine Justice, in favour of retribution and political exploitation of crime for popularity. The idea of having a system of rights and an independent arbitrator over matters of state and citizens rights, is better served by the European court. The idea of a nation, just being able to punish or deport, as they see fit, irrespective of their own laws, is a dangerous concept for any society. I think the frustration is valid, but that the presentation in media of why 'the state cannot just do as it sees fit' is poorly placed. A government that is not bound by law, other than its own, is a dangerous prospect, not just for criminals, but for anyone in future who's behaviour it determines as criminal. How ever did we manage to apply the law before 1950?

Of course, I am loathed to say, we would not have this particular problem if these people had not been allowed here in the first place. Unfortunatly, this is what happens with the liberal argument. They laugh at you when you say that multi culture on a large scale will cause huge social problems and then when it does, they call you a racist for pointing it out.
