Howard Sattler (rightly) received a lot of criticism when he remarked “Good riddance to bad rubbish” when juvenile car thieves were killed in a high speed crash. But is it going just a step too far to say “Good riddance” to Howard when his mother dies? A little worse than calling Adrian Barich a cunt I think.
Or do we blame the moderators? The link, for as long as it remains.
I might have sugar coated it.

I’m buggered if I want to agree with a metrocentric twat, but this time I really can’t help myself.
I have absolutely no sympathy for the rabid rattler, though I do understand the call for legalised voluntary euthanasia.
Death comes to all of us and it really is just a matter of where, when and how.
In this world of twisted morals and dubious ethics it’s the ‘How’ bit that concerns me most.
The utter crap of “palliative” medicine is just that. What value is there in the extension of life simply to appease those whose “Christian” dogmas have occasioned a terror of the inevitability of death; and in so doing wreak a terrible suffering on those they claim to be helping.
I have great empathy with the terrible death that Howard’s mother was forced to undergo.
But yes, her arrogant, ignorant and hypercritical son does deserve a serve of his own medicine
and, if it stirs some of his sycophantic readers into into self righteous rage, so be it.

Not wanting to speak ill of teh dead, but the fact that we both had the exact same names, live in the same city and share another bloke with the exact same name who I call Dad and he calls son, you would have thought the old prick would have sent me a birthday card at least once over the last 41 years.

it does make you wonder why on earth she went on Sattler’s show, it’s not like he has either credibility or an audience.

Yesterday I was thinking that Gillard’s comments about women were a cunning plan to force Abbott to put Bishop and Mirabella on the telly, and thus prove the argument that he does not promote ‘women of calibre’
