Oh No - Not Coathangers!
Much of the outrage media is best ignored, but this demands a response.
Reading the bigoted responses of many posting on the Shockjock blogosphere reminds me of the sound track of "Til Death Us Do Part".
If the silly buggers took a deep breath and had a quiet logical thought (unlikely of course) they'd quickly realise that community detention is a great deal cheaper than banging asylum seekers up in godforsaken compounds offshore - but the outrage media has never let the facts get in the way of a good tantrum.
The piece of cartoon above is probably the best response, but Crikey (where the pic originates) puts it well.
