I was about to do deep analysis of this letter, and the way America is today, as mental health problems, health and so on. It is unthinkable to put it in a country where the giant, x crimes every year.
America can become the biggest-ever Hell with that letter. This was the worst decision to think of freedom without seeing negative effects.
Freedom is not shown in any way in any country, the population needs to learn to live healthily without any problem and without arms,create this letter iscraz

And why should we hand power over human rights to either the judiciary or the executive?

The Australian Constitution defines the operation of federal and State law. The 'criminals charter' (otherwise known as the 'bill of rights') seeks to bypass the Constitution by introducing an untested and largely unexamined document that will be abused by those with a vested interest.

As a democratic country with an impeccable human rights record a Bill of Rights is neither necessary or desirable.
A legislative Bill of Rigts places too much power in the judiciary. Judges will be placed in the interpretative role of determining the scope of these rights, thereby inviting judicial activism.
A legislative Bill of Rights is against the spirit of our constitution. The founding fathers intended that the protction of most Rights be left to responsible government .

Nothing wrong with human rights when the focus is protection of the individual against tyranny. But Britons and Canadians know the Charter of Rights as the weapon of selfish nihilists, who are using Charters of Rights to convert extreme social policies into laws they know voters would never support. Charters of Rights cannot help society. Even the architect of Britain’s charter of rights admits his charter is a villain’s charter because it only helps wrongdoers while the community suffers.

Let us ensure that our Parliament remains responsible for creating law, and the Judiciary remains responsible for interpreting law.

Our positive "rights" have been protected very well over the last century, even when compared to other nations that have a Bill of Rights. A Bill of Rights in inefficient and doesn't serve the purpose in which it may be intended.

Common Law is and has been fine thus far. In fact 'himan rights' emerged from common law. Now we have a 'rights' movement that thinks the common law inadequate. Similar to one wanting one's own parents removed due to them giving birth to you.

Australia's federal political system has proven to be one of the most stable in the world. Sovereignty has been successfully separated between parliament, the executive and the courts. It is often a fine balance and should not be unduly tampered with. Every successful nation provides for the necessity of constitutional changes to meet evolving political imperatives, but a bill of rights is very different. Incidentally, the left too should oppose greater judicial power on egalitarian grounds.

The United Nations Declaration on Human Rights is totally sufficient, and so there is absolutaly NO NEED for this one.

Besides, if it is ruled by judges, then it seems that human rights can only be gained in a court that most people could not afford. An appeal to the government will get nowhere - it is out of their hands. This will also overide and overule UN Declartions. So I say NO to this bill in its entirety. It also means that new laws will be enacted depending on court rulings.

Just imagine the sneaky Brumby government appointing Julian Burnside QC as a Chief Justice, only to then have a bill of rights. It would be a disaster.

Judges are not elected, they are not accountable, this is why I am supporting no bill of rights for Australia. And it's not only me who supports this idea. People of a left-wing ilk also suipport the idea, like Bob Carr.
