There is no justice... just us? o.0

Interesting article by a Muslim writer about the Michelle Leslie kerfuffle.

I find the whole thing really frustrating.

Perhaps if Schapelle Corby had claimed to be a Muslim and been friends with the police chief's son, she wouldn't be stuck in a jail cell at the moment. Maybe the Bali 9 should just rock up to court and say there were doin' it all in the name of Allah and hope for a lighter sentence (ie: not death).

Although the majority of people in Bali are Hindu... so perhaps Michelle Leslie really did get away with it because of the bribes that were allegedly paid to police and the fact that she was hanging out with someone's son at the time...

There was more evidence for actual intentional possession of drugs for Leslie than there ever was for Schapelle, and the verdict of the judges seems totally inappropriate compared to other decisions that have been made by Balinese and Indonesian courts in the past in relation to drug issues.

So perhaps the courts don't have to worry so much about being made a mockery of by Michelle Leslie dropping the Muslim style of dress, decorum and whatnot and reverting to her normal minimalist-on-the-clothes-department style, but by their OWN behaviour and decisions.

Hell, they should be ashamed of themselves enough to crawl under a rock and die because of the decisions made about the sentences of the Bali bombers. Oh, three months should be oh-so-sufficient for people involved in killing over 280 people and maiming many more. Hey, let's let them out on good behaviour! What a GREAT idea! Nothing says punishment for killing people like a light smack on the wrist and saying, "Oh you naughty, naughty boys," in a playful tone.

Whatever the case may be in regards to the whole Bali bombing stuff, if the ugly little stick insect makes money from the whole drug thing, I am going to be SERIOUSLY cross at the mainstream media in Australia.

Grrrr.

The reasons to never, ever go to Bali seem to just mount up, really.
