...an alcohol level that was three times the legal limit

What's the legal limit? I've always thought it was zero.

Clearly, y'all are taking this a lot more seriously than the guy that signed off on it all, Bill Crews, who is seen showing his support for women's rights by sitting casually with his arm around the statue representing the victims, and a big grin on his face.

No need for a statue like this to be erected in Australia. Australians may occasionally need to be reminded of atrocities done by those who originally founded the country to right wrongs that are yet to be atoned for (with regard to indigenous Australians), but a constant reminder of atrocities involving two foreign nations is unwelcome and will beget nothing but prejudice towards new Australians and their innocent children. Welcome to Australia, embrace your heritage, but leave your anger and possible subsequent racist views behind you!
