It's beyond disgraceful how Ben has been treated. A man (like many others - including women) who sign on the dotted line IOT protect our Country and once faced with conflict, he's hung out to dry! As a Veteran myself, I find it appalling and sadly, it's becoming more and more common.<br>
I have had the privilege of meeting Ben at our Australian War Memorial in 2015. He is a very friendly, polite and down-to-earth young man. We have not been in his shoes serving in an area surrounded by snipers and live fire, so how can anyone (especially the hierarchy) question his actions.
Catherine supported: A Pardon for Ben Roberts-SmithThe disrespect for this SAS soldier is so disturbing. This is an Australian man who was doing his duty as an Australian soldier sent by the Australian Government to another country. Having family who served in both World Wars (for England and Australia) and having spen time in the Australian Army Reserve, I fully support his actions. These are actions which required immediate response and unless a person is there, then they cannot judge. Its a war and what happens in a war should stays there, except in the minds of those individuals involved. He fully deserves a pardon and should never gave been placed in this predicament.
Peter supported: A Pardon for Ben Roberts-SmithMy husband served two tours under the Royal Australian Navy. Our servicemen and servicewomen need to be honoured and protected the same way they honoured and protected us.
Kirstin supported: A Pardon for Ben Roberts-SmithEvery woman has a story about men either hurting them or making them uncomfortable or scared of being hurt. <br>
Too many women are being hurt and killed. Children grow up seeing it. It’s time we actually face the issue and investigate what is contributing to the problem, and what can and must be done to help.
Jo supported: Royal Commission into the Killing of Australian Women and GirlsMy dear friend, Elaine Pandilovski age 44, was one of the many women who have been murdered by a current or former partner. Her son at age 12 was left to be raised by his elderly grandmother. He has autism. That was in 2020 and things have only gotten worse since. There is deafening silence from both sides of politics on this issue. Where’s our national day of mourning? Where is the action on this? If you are silent you are complicit. These deaths are PREVENTABLE!!!! DO something NOW!!! Why the hell are people who have histories of violence and DVOs out on them getting bail? Why don’t sentences match the crime? Where have we failed women during the justice process? There was outage at the Bondi terrorist attack and I expect the exact same level of outrage and action on this. Governments have blood on their hands.

Enough is enough we need real action.
