One can only take so much bull-crap from politicians sometimes.

A week ago, Jerlun MP Mukhriz Mahathir was alleged to have asked for the closure of vernacular schools — an offence which may see him fined or jailed if found guilty. He later denied this.

I am nobody to judge if Mukhriz Mahathir, son of our ex-Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir bin Mohamad has committed sedition. In fact, this post is not about him but the people who have said that our Jerlun MP did commit sedition.

At least two politicians and a lawyer have spoken against Mukhriz’s statement. All claimed that he could (and maybe should) be charged with the Sedition Act. One even wanted the Attorney-General to take appropriate action against him.

That is really funny because as far as I know, the police would not lift a finger unless a police report is lodge. Just a question to parliamentarian Lim Kit Siang — how many police reports have been lodged against Mukhriz Mahathir for his alleged seditious statement? On the other hand, how many police reports on snatch theft incidents have been made and what are the steps taken to address this problem?

    why need report? we have precedent about police and aca make their own report and start sedition charges….why double standard?

    @phing: Not sure how true that is but the police’s reputation sure is not that good, is it?

    @vc: Something must be done to prevent/reduce the number of snatch thief cases. As far as I know, the numbers are still very high.
