No, ABC news. The "tough youth justice" laws are none of the above: - it's not "tough"; it's stupid, counterproductive, and harmful - 10-year-olds are children, not "youth". - this is the opposite of "justice". www.abc.net.au/news/2024-12... - ThreadSky

Imagine putting a 10 year old in prison for life! No matter what he or she has done a 10 year old is a child. It's obscene.

Appalling. This country is rushing to the sewers for policy. Or the 16th century.

They were always going to pass. That's how Queensland is. Party in power passes legislation. The end.

Agree there's nothing good about this legislation, and I hope it comes back to bite them on the arse.

I’ve worked in youth services for many years and the liberals in Queensland are wrong in what they are doing.

It's child abuse, pure and simple. #CallItWhatItIs

This is a bad day to be a child in QLD.

Even the UN has said David Crisafulli, that the draconian laws that you are proposing for 10 year olds is a breach of children's rights.

While the old school "kick up the arse" style of policing is unsavoury to many, the results are worth consideration.

Guaranteed they don’t have white ten year olds in mind. It is blatantly racist.

bradbrookjenny.bsky.social•174 days ago

Just no words.🤯

A ten year old brain is not fully formed the frontal lobe that acts as the judgement and major director is seriously not formed even in teenagers so they cannot be tried as adults because they the brain of a child that’s biology

This cruelty and will accomplish nothing but increased pain and criminality. All just to gain the conservative populace votes.

Waiting for the first 10 yr old white kid with junkie parents and has been abused to come forward.oh yeah they’re never white.

lynette10.bsky.social•173 days ago

This is wrong but Queensland this is what you wanted

fraugosling.bsky.social•174 days ago

Barbaric as well

Sick. Immoral ABC

missymoo2.bsky.social•174 days ago

Maybe putting the money into social services will reduce the need for 10 year olds in jail.

soniaahhh.bsky.social•174 days ago

I bet he has some mates ready and willing to build and operate new private kiddie jails

prufrockery.bsky.social•174 days ago

It’s also racist as hell. We know that the largest group detained under these laws will be Indigenous kids. So unsurprising that Queensland has given us such luminaries as Bjelke Peterson, Dutton, Canavan and Hansen. Not one of them is worth feeding.

shartymcscrote.bsky.social•174 days ago

To call this fucked up,is a massive understatement.
