Where does LNP find these people?

WEIRD LNP candidate !......Sheesh ! #auspol A Liberal Party candidate proposed a radical new policing system in which criminal suspects would be injected with satellite-trackable microchips shot from a ''high powered sniper rifle''.
Ray King, who is contesting the western Sydney electorate of McMahon, was behind the idea, which he claimed would improve productivity of the NSW Police Force.
Mr King, a former police commander in Liverpool, landed in hot water on Friday over critical comments he made about burqas at an election campaign function where guests included the disgraced former detective Roger Rogerson and current assistant police commissioner Frank Minnelli.
In 2011, Mr King outlined his ideas in a 12-page essay, Microchipping of human subjects as a productivity enhancement and as a strategic management direction of NSW Police.
The paper was submitted to a police leadership conference shortly before he was promoted from Cabramatta to Liverpool.
''What has limited our effectiveness for decades has been the restriction on how police obtain information and having to prove before courts that we have acquired our information by legitimate means,'' he wrote.
''What I propose and will endeavour to convince the reader of, is the implementation of microchip technology similar to that used in controlling the activity of domestic animals, will quantifiably enhance the success of law enforcement.''
The most controversial part of Mr King's plan was the means by which microchips would be inserted into the body. He named Danish company Empire North as having patented the ''ID Sniper Rifle'' as the ''long-distance injector'' of the microchip.
But a search for Empire North in Copenhagen suggests the company does not exist and the ID sniper rifle is actually part of a plot of a Danish sci-fi docu-drama called Empire North.
A Liberal source said the essay was a ''futuristic scenario'' but, in the Liverpool Champion on March 30, 2011, Mr King raised microchipping as a genuine prospect. ''I'm an advocate for this type of technology,'' he said. ''I think we need to explore the use of microchips to help put criminals behind bars.''

Enough of the brogan seat. Capricornia is a labor stronghold and includes my home town.

Thought Abbott was in Townsville today. Though he thought he was in Darwin. Lol

Would be surprised if LNP snare Capricornia. Though stranger things have happened.

The liberals certainly do attract extreme loonies, that's just one of many examples.

he's one of the less extreme examples. there are people there from every dark corner imaginable . i was reading that MZZ hanson could win with just 2per cent primary on preferences. which is to say its possible.

bernardii might end up being viewed as a moderate in the senate if some of the one issue loonies get up, the preferencing going on is bound to let some of them in. so we won't just be shot at in NSW national parks, they be able to get at us everywhere.
