I for one will never visit their country. I hope that this negatively impacts their tourist industry and shows the world what a twisted (in)justice system they have.
I don't agree with boycotting or trying to hurt the Balinese with malicious attacks, that to me lowers the standard of an australian citizen, but if we stay strong for her, then she will pull through and she will eventually come home.
It is bad enough that an innocent woman has been found guilty of a crime she did not commit. Bring her home please, at least she will be more comfortable in Australia.
I think its unfortunate, that an inocent girl is jailed for the next 20 years of her life in indonesia. I believe the Aust Govt. will try and bring her home, but i think more support should be given to her and less to the 'bali 9' who are actually guilty. All Australians should not punish Indonesia, by boycotting them as the balinese people will be the ones who suffer. Australians should be aware when going to destinations outside Autralia and be tolerant and aware of the culture and law.
Please set Schappelle Free.The Bali bomber got off on a light sentence.He now taunts Schappelle in Prison.What sort of justice is this?Get her out now.Send the troops to bring her home
So upset that an innocent Australian can be delt with in this manner.Bring her home now!It sickens me that our government can allow this treatment of an Austrlian tax payer.
Having 3 daughters of my own, can only imagine what she and her family are going through. I do not believe she is guilty and would love to see her get a pardon.
I believe she is being made an example of.
Yes please bring her home.

It is time the Australian Government, stopped being so generous with our money and aid to theese barbaric countries, and let them fend for themselves,as they rely on our money and tourists to live, myself and none of my family and friends will never set foot in that country again, even if Shapelle is not freed, at least out boycotting will start to hurt.
What ive heard, read and seen through the media since last Friday have shocked me enourmously. People are boycotting Indonesia and Bali, people retracting donations they made to Indonesia and people who are refusing to donate the the Salvations Army's Red Shield Appeal without assurances the money will not go to Indonesia because of the Corby verdict. What the hell is wrong with us?? We are taught values in school, how to be 'Australian', we are taught to respect others and the fact that Australia is a multicultural country. We celebrate 'Australia Day' celebrating our identity and diversity, but recently ive seen none of these. To people who believe Schapelle is innocent, im am not denouncing your opinions. But seriously, wake up! To the majority of the people in this forum who have brains thankyou for your insight into this case. To those who don’t, the people who feel angered at the decision, the woman has been found guilty of commiting a crime. She has been imprisoned for 20 years and lucky not to get life. Now get over it. Stop wasting your time pouting, and defending her. There is so much more happening in the world,
I feeel very sorry for the corby family the government really need to learn the 20th centuary legal system and our government should pay attention and help this injustice. Keep smiling schapelle women have a inner strength about them when things get tough mind over matter. LET HER FREE..Ellie

2yrs for a Bali bomber, A BALI BOMBER and 20yrs for a melee drug charge. Either way i believe she is innocent, i will also never go to Bali for any reason. Our strength will give her the strength to hold on till she is free. BRING SCHAPPELLE HOME TO HER FAMILY AND FRIENDS!!
I wonder how mountains you would move and what laws you would change if it was one of your family?? Have a look in YOUR HEART AND YOUR CONSCIENCE and do whats MORALLY RIGHT not POLITICALLY RIGHT!! LISTEN TO AUSTRALIA!!
HELP ME! Please send a large Dominos vegetarian pizza c/- Bali Central Prison ASAP. Oh - a big tube of KY Jelly would also be appreciated - my arse is stinging something frightful. Ta.
Here is my hot new Schapelle song:
You're not alone.
There's druggos everywhere
waiting for your weed
All your dealers at
home, are packing cones
and crying about the 4.1kg you've wasted.
You're a fucking waste of space,
but probably a quite good root.
The guards in prison are good
and...will shag you senseless.
Peddle drugs. Face the justice.
20 years of justice it seems.
Hope life is hell for you, tart
like the hell your drugs bring to others.
If only the judges would have had you shot
We wouldn't have to keep putting up with this shit on the TV.
Do a search for "Aaron Mangraviti" or his MSN id "ajm228@msn.com in google. He's the knob-jockey running that official website. Also uses software cracks etc as well. Interesting. If anyone has any dirt on this bloke, drop me an email syd73barney@yahoo.com.au and I'll get it through to a reporter I know.
What sane person would try to smuggle 4.1kgs of marijuana in a boogie board bag into a country with some of the toughest laws on drugs??? Shapelle is innocent and our government knows it but they cant be bothered to get up off their asses and bring her home. Stay strong shapelle, your in our hearts!
i think that she is innocent you would have to be pretty stupid to think you could possibly get away with smuggling 4kg of pot, and what makes it even more stupid is that the street value over there is a lot less than here!!! SHE IS INNOCENT
This has become such an important issue in Australia's eyes that it will be a topic dicussed at election time. Don't tell the public to respect other countries laws... We Don't want to hear it! Just do something to make this right.
Why anybody would want to holiday or do business in this shithole country, corrupt to the core and invested with Islamic anti-west fanatics and terrorists is beyond my comprehension Chin up Schapelle its going to be a hard climb out of the hole you are in. John, New Zealand
To the government of Australia,
If this was heppening to your daughter what would you be doing ? I would hope it would be more than your doing now. Please bring Schapelle home.
Please get her out of there. You can't destroy a young woman's entire future. She needs her family, to marry and have children if she wishes to. Don't leave her to rot!
Why shouldnt the media companies pay for her fines, her support, and her families support. After all they have made a fortune out of Schapelle, out of her fight for freedom. Vultures the lot of them, but redeem yourselves, pay your way.
Please bring schapelle home. It breaks my heart to watch a beautiful, innocent girls life being wasted away over there. This could be one of my children, or anyone's. Please stay strong schapelle, I know you will be back home soon.
I personally think Schapelle is probably guilty...how could she not notice 4kg of marijuana in her boardcase...but regardless i think she should be brought home and i am disgusted that the one who killed 88 received 2 1/2 years when she receivers 20....racism and prejudice still exist, they must be stopped
send her home... shes so young.. there may not have been much evidence to say she didnt do it but then was there much evidence to say she did... also it disgusts me a football player got 18months for kicking his pregnant girlfriend in the stomach and schapelle got 20 YEARSSSSSSSSSSS
Indonesia justice = Schapelle Corby who did not have the drugs strapped to her body Marijuana possession 20 years jail
Indonesia justice = radical Muslim cleric Abu Bakar Bashir MURDERING 202 PEOPLE 2 ½ years’ jail.
88 of them Australian (the Bali Bombing.)
The Indo. Gov. should be held responsible for the police spoilt the crime scene. It's very hard to prove your innocent, especially when the people charging you are incompetent.
I am outraged and disgusted that these people have less brains than the size of a peanut and can imprison an australian woman for 20 years for drug smuggling which she didnt even do, and yet one of their own can plan a bombing and kill 202 people including 88 australians and they only get 2 and 1/2 pathetic years, that equates to a miserly 1 month in jail per person killed. Schapelle is innocent and if they had proper judges who know the proper law and can open their eyes and ears to the evidence supporting her case she would have been aquitted the first day she stepped into that courtroom. They had holes in all the evidence against her and yet she can still be sentenced to 20 years. Outraged and digusted are the only words i can say to descride the injustice that has happenend. So to the judges i say this, you have imprisoned an innocent young lady and put her through hell, but dont worry one day the devil will be so kind to return the favour on her behalf, for you will be in hell for what you have done.
Tell me why these arseholes keep looking up schapelle specifically just to say how guilty they think she is? Get a life, we are trying to come together as a society (which rarely happens these days) to help an innocent girl. Apart from the fact that it was her boogey board bag (which she hadnt seen or touched for several hrs)they have nothing on her. Oh if you are thinking that they have the custom officials as witnesses think again if she was a drug smuggler she would have bribed them as i know first hand you can do.I was in Bali only last year and my friend was in a hurry to passs through customs he paid an official $100 australian to pass through without gettting his bag checked! I was in disbelief and you cant tell me that Schapelle who has been there 5 times before wouldnt know how corrupt these "offficials" are. A clear bag of pot just thrown into a boogey board bag, give me a break! All of you who say she is guilty i hope you feel good about yourselves when shes proven innocent and that if you are in the same position in your lifetimes that you are shown just as little compassion. GROW UP!
