Blaming increase in City Homicides load of poppycock

For immediate release:

Press Release - Sensible Sentencing Trust - Christchurch Branch

"Quakes Blamed for increase in City Homicides" - Christchurch Star

Experts are blaming the homicides on post earthquake stress.

What a lot of poppycock!

"You can't make an excuse for anyone taking another human life" - Superintendent Gary Knowles. And SST agree with him.

People have to be held responsible for their actions! How so called "experts" can suggest that the killings are to be blamed on post earthquake stress is so very wrong!

We have had 5 homicides in Christchurch since August 22nd (Hayden Miles) and the latest one January 8th (Ken Moore) it is a sad day in society when PC rubbish blames stress on these terrible homicides.
