wow factor

Today David_Hicks became a free man, with some control order limitations.

During the six year saga a few good people emerge with dignity. David’s father is the one I admire most.

Terry Hicks interview with Amnesty International Australia

It’s not a responsibility really, it’s something you have to do. As a parent I say to people I just hope to hell you would do the same for your kids. People come up to me and say, ‘I’ve got kids and I would not know what to do in your circumstances’, and I say to them, you’d be surprised how you get that resonance out of yourself. You just pull it out from somewhere and you just keep going because they’re your kids and you stand by them. If your kid commits murder, or runs drugs or whatever, you stand by them. If you don’t you’re not a parent.

Michael_Mori also stands tall for his principled defence of Hicks.
