tumeke [too much]
sometimes, when i have the emotional energy, i read "tumeke." this is a kiwi blog that is quite serious in it's intent. the blogger's name are tim and bomber, tim is currently in jail for "sedition." this charge created a fair stir in nz when it happened. i believe it was a political "fit up." the thing that bugs me the most is the attitudes being displayed by some of the people commenting on the blog. evidently, these people are kiwis. evidently. what a shocking bunch of unforgiving holier than thou slow wits some of you are. tim gives us a look into prison life that most of us wouldn't get. yeah, we can disagree on the appropriateness of his sentence. yeah we can disagree on the actual sentence itself. but, the sheer pridefulness, and smugness of some of the comments is shameful.

Having payed my dues to society, is not enough. Doing time in prison is not enough. They want blood and they want you to languish in turmoil all the days of your life...until the similar happens to them or theirs.
ah, but you know the answer. forgiveness.
