  • @FluffyWesties Spoken by a true liberal voter and someone completely out of touch with reality.

  • Well said Robert Mann!! It's so refreshing to hear some TRUTH..in a world hoodwinked and misinformed by the LYING Murdoch press & Co..Andrew Bolt is an insidious small man completely devoid of any redeeming signs of being a humane being. I applaud you Robert Mann for bringing us TRUTH.

  • You need to read the case more thoroughly, because your comments are bullshit. Yes he got some facts wrong but not the underlying message. And that is that many of these so called aboriginals are not such. They are calling themselves such for social and monetary gain, and he had every right to say so. He will appeal and he will win, rightly so for the good of freedom of expression and for all of us to have the freedom to say what we want whether leftist morons like you like it or not.

  • Bolt wants to be able to say ANYTHING.

    It's OK too for Allan Jones to say somebody should stuff Julia Gillard into a bag and dumb it at sea?

    And NOW they complain about free speech.

    Free speech doesn't come without RESPONSIBILITY.

    Indeed with free speech, the RESPONSIBILITY should be GREATER!

  • May the left wing authoritarians rejoice in their hollow victory against free speech and freedom in Australia this week, just remember... nothing, absolutely nothing is going to stop the Tony Abbot (May God grant him Strength of his convictions to fight the battles ahead) and those of righteousness from banishing these vile creatures of the Left Wing to the political wilderness where they shall spend 40 years wandering in the land of complete and utter irrelevance...Only for them, no saviour...
