Funny how criminals can break the law with impunity, can assault and kill, steal other people's property, burglarise other people's homes, kidnap, rape and abduct children and then when they are caught they are able to invoke THEIR human rights. It is the height of hypocrisy to break the law, then be able to invoke its protection and privileges

As far as I'm concerned all criminals should forfeit any recourse to Human Rights or any other Rights enshrined in Law. A criminal act is, after all, an invasion and abuse of someone else's human rights. Instead of Human Rights legisation we should have a Bill of Rights that gives protection and privileges to the law abiding people of this country, that can only be invoked so long as people adhere to their responsibilities to be good citizens.
