  1. Around town I don't think it makes much of a difference but on the hwy 98 is the way to go but the farther u go the better it gets I have a ford ute & a turbo territory & a Jeep Wrangler not much hope for the jeep firsthy bugger she is 17 lt per km

     

    As for the turbo she gets around 9 /10 km per lt on the open road as long as Use The cruise control ,and keep the size nine off the loud pedal

     

    The old ba ute give me around 10/12 Km per lt on 98 with Cruze control .

     

    My little two stroke give about 18.5 on 98 with a low egt even better with avgas .

     

    And I try not to use 91 but on the odd time she runs a tittle hotter and burns about 20 /21 lph

  2. You admit that it seems wrong, but still you appear to support it?

    How does that work?

    No I don't support it but it not in my hands too change the way they think as I said it there way Not mine

     

    So I don't travel too any country that think that way but as i said if I was too then I would be subject to there laws same as we do in Australia Laws

     

    And I don't agree with our Government law but I can't change it either ...........

     

     

  3. So......a 23 year old married girl of Iranian descent is in an abusive relationship and is in Iran visiting relatives. She briefly falls for a guy there. She gets sprung kissing him privately.

    That's adultery in Iran. The sentence for adultery in Iran is death.

     

    The 23 year old woman is duly buried in dirt up to her neck, and a crowd is formed to pelt rocks at her head until her bloodied, smashed in head stops moving and she is dead.

     

    Stiff sh*t? Are you so devoid of empathy for human beings that you don't give a cr*p about such situations that can occur in these countries?

    No its not right but if that's there laws then so be it .

     

    again don't put yourself into these positions in these country,

     

    How do you stop these things from happening in a country that believes they are right ?

     

    I, you where there at that time and tried too stop it you be in the same position beside her .

     

    There are strange laws in many country's that don't seem too be right to us but there laws have been that way for many a life span

     

    There people in these country have too change there system it not up too outsides to change the way they govern we have enoth problems in our neck of the woods without judging others

     

     

  4. So......we should execute people to ease the load on the prison system? How far do you want to run with that logic, exactly?

    Not sure if you're aware how many death-row prisoners in the USA for example, have now been exonerated or pardoned after new DNA evidence was introduced. You think the Government sanctioned execution of someone with a wife and kids who didn't actually commit a crime is acceptable "collateral damage" for the lofty ideal (contradicted by real-world evidence) of believing you're reducing the likelihood of serious criminal acts?

     

    This is the problem I have with the death penalty. It's not reversible, and rarely consistently and fairly applied. Take a look at a list of countries with the death penalty and have a think about who you're getting into bed with.

    You go too a country with these rules with any intentions of breaching there rule u pay .....

    If you go to a country with these rules and you breach there rules you pay bye there rules .......

     

    If your not happy too abide bye there rule don't go !

     

     

  5. Who was punished more, those executed or the family that put their life on hold for 10 years and then in the last 6 months clearly went through enormous stresses and strains.Was the sister of MS a brilliant actor...or simply someone suffering appallingly....I think the later myself....

    Personal view, and not necessarily applicable in this case, death isn't something you can undo if down track new technology or a review of circumstances lead to the conclusion that the absolute guilt, beyond reasonable doubt...is suddenly simply innocent.....

     

    I myself, or my family, have never been victims of crime (at least the type/magnitude we are discussing) so I don't know if I would feel different if that was not the case...probably....but I personally don't see humanity as a failing of humans....rather something that separates us from other animals.

    Other animal only kill for food or suvival they don't destroy each other for gain in profit like human do too each other.

  6. death sentences don't discourage crime though. the US has the death penalty in many states and they still manage to shoot 50,000 ppl a year

    No but it one less we don't have too pay through the prison system ...

     

    That money could then go to the medical system too help people in need .

     

     

  7. So Doug, you fly from Bunnings to McDonalds, on to Hungry Jacks, wait , bit of a blackspot here until we get to the Shell roadhouse half way to the next town. Then buildings on the horizon, soon be able to check the radar again!
