In short: Neo-Nazis Thomas Sewell and Jacob Hersant have avoided further jail time after they were convicted of a 2021 attack on hikers at a Victorian state park. County Court Judge Kellie Blair wished the pair luck and said she believed the prospects of both men being rehabilitated were good. Sewell and Hersant maintained their innocence after the hearing and made anti-Semitic and homophobic comments to gathered media. What's next? Hersant must complete 200 hours of community service as part of his sentencing.

Holy fuck. Try being aboriginal and doing the same thing, see where that fucking lands you.

They probably would have maimed or killed the hikers if they were able. What the fuck?

That judge is a fucking Nazi, Thomas is well known and absolutely unrepentant. A Nazi through and through.

What the flying fark? You get more fucking gaol time for stealing a trolley of groceries from woolies. What kind of group not out for violence is just casually carrying balaclavas and knives?
