With all the "bleatings" from the media "bleeding-hearts" this week I feel compelled to express my opinion in relation to this matter.
As I stated in the above post, these convictions were imposed by the authorities of another sovereign nation and the NSW Racing officials may have opened "a can of worms" with their snubbing of the HK authories' decision.
A caller to a NSW racing radio station articulated his beliefs very well when he outlined his thoughts in this matter which basically agreed with my own(and those of many many others) in the previous post. NB. He indicated that he had no grudge against C. Munce personally nor do any of us.
It is a futile arguement put forward by the pro-Munce supporters that he would not have received a custodial sentence in Australia.....they are in HK....!!!!!
If you understand that basic fact then you will have this whole matter in context, not sullied by emotion.
All I can say is "it sure helps to have mates in the media!"
Cheers.
