Left for dead: boy,10, joins in bashing:
Reason to Blow Up the World...

A man is in a coma after three boys, one as young as 10, bashed him with a letterbox attached to a metal pipe, leaving him bleeding on a road where he was struck by a car, NSW police say.

The boys, believed aged between 10 and 17, allegedly beat him with a letterbox attached to a metre-length piece of pipe.

Police said a passing motorist stopped and confronted the boys, and they fled, leaving their victim on the road with severe head injuries.

Before the injured man could be moved, a second car struck him, resulting in further injuries.

The 41-year-old man was treated at the scene for head injuries and rushed to Gosford Hospital in a serious condition, where he has later placed in a medically-induced coma.

Lord of the Flies anyone? When the official Doom season starts in 2008 Australia may get it's own division.

A-G to appeal rape sentences:
Reason to Blow Up the World...

QUEENSLAND'S Attorney-General Kerry Shine says he will appeal sentences handed down against nine males who gang-raped a 10-year-old girl in 2005.

Cairns-based District Court judge Sarah Bradley did not record convictions against six teenage attackers and gave three others aged 17, 18 and 26 suspended sentences over the incident at the indigenous Aurukun community on Cape York.

The girl had "probably agreed" to have sex with the youths, Judge Bradley said during her sentencing remarks, The Australian newspaper reported today.

How can a 10-year-old girl consent to anything even remotely sexually related? Judge Bradley should be disrobed.

Nod of Doom to Sinthiya.
