    Shoot at anybody you like, for $5000

    Seems like a pretty good deal to me.

    Officer pleads guilty to unlawfully firing gun - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

    Yet another in a recent string of appalling police behaviour not being punished.

    PS. I'm still trying to find out what happened to that officer who strung up a rope to catch those kids on a dirtbike.
    In life you only get one lap, might as well make it a good one.

    Punishment was $5000. Not sure what you mean.

    Having shit prospects of future employment as a result of it..

    No punishment at all really... No excuses what the guy did was wrong. But I think he has been punished accordingly.

    Pulling out a gun and firing at people is intent to kill/cause serious harm.

    That warrants jail time in my book, no if or buts about it.
    Blaming a 'brain fart' is a fucking pitiful excuse.

    And.... what would the charges be for you or me if we discharged a firearm at a person or their vehicle?

    That is the point Barfy is making.

    The job loss is realistically inconsequential in the face of the Legal system.

    Even though he has authority to carry a weapon and discharge it in public should his judgement deem to be required? He used EXCEPTIONALLY BAD judgement in this case but no one was killed or even injured and has been charged what the magistrate deemed accordingly.

    We have seen Murderers and Serious Assault offenders get off with less in the past so this seems like fair punishment.

    EDIT: MEMBERS OF PUBLIC ARE NOT LICENSED TO CARRY AND DISCHARGE FIREARMS ANYWHERE OTHER THAN WHERE PERMITTED BY THEIR LICENSE.There is a huge difference.

    Does the same logic apply to schoolteachers who get done for child rape?

    Sacked from the school
    Having your name dragged through the media as a nonce
    Having zero prospects of future employment as a result of it..

    Magistrate: "Ahhhhh you've been punished enough! Run along now, you loveable scamp lol"

    Well that's why I asked the question, Fozzy.

    Why is the logic applicable to one offence and not another?

    Where does the distinction lie?

    So what you are saying Saint is that every offence punishable by law should have the same penalty?

    No, what I am saying is that ancillary adverse outcomes that might be suffered by a convicted criminal as a direct consequence of his criminal conduct are not relevant mitigating factors for the purposes of sentencing.

    I've highlighted the relevant part in question.

    A police officer who unlawfully fired at a car carrying five people
    I've highlighted another part.

    Not to mention Losing your job of 15 years
    Having your history dragged through the media
    Having shit prospects of future employment as a result of it..
    "i made a bad judgement call and shot at a car full of people".

    Cool.
