Following on from that other thread about the Sydney gangster, this is a case where he has been convicted of a crime but I still think he should have gone to prison indefinitely instead of a detention centre indefinitely. In a dentention centre he will be surrounded by innocent people, potentially children and will not be under the same level of security as prison, as this event clearly shows.

This is one of the cases that I think is ok to remove his visa, he arrived and quickly started abusing children, not like the gangster who has lived in Australia since a child.

Ahh yeah I remember I can recall that convo without going back and reading it, to me it's just our policy makers failing to protect the community again because of the over politicisation of the issue. I can defiantly agree that this is a far better case or at least strait forward case for deportation than the Sydney gangster but the fact this guy got out into the community shows that our legal system is failing the community here. As with the Jail argument, he should be in a high level of security and on paper a Jail makes a lot more sense than a detention centre for sure. I would say that because his visa was candled he was probably moved out of an Australian Jail and into a centre for deportation when he'd just decided to crack the shits about going home to Afghanistan probably because he did similar crimes back there (speculation from me). I do understand that there are innocents in detention centres but there are clearly people this as well, it's such a hard issue to solve and I think the best really is to stop people smuggling and I guess separate family s off. I don't really know what arrangements occur there especially with family who are not refugees. I'm glad I'm not making the hard decisions personally.
