A perfectly reasonable statement, I would say,...but;
It just reinforces my view that Emerson is an over-educated idiot.

Emmerson doesnt seem educated he just seems like a big mummy's boy, a real jerk.

I thought the tweet was on the money and a lot less offensive than the goons who took time off from shooting up to trash their neighborhood.
Mobs tearing up Logan. Did any of them do a day's work today, or was it business as usual and welfare on tap?
The comment may be an accurate reflection of what is going on, but it was a stupid comment to make IMO. What did he expect that tweet to achieve? He is an MP and MPs are expected to help solve problems, not play the spectator throwing insults, no matter how deserved they may be. Tweets like that are what I expect from the general public following such an event. MPs get paid handsomely to be a bit more constructive.
Yes, of course you would. It was, however, politically stupid, branding various racial/cultural groups who no doubt have a vote.Laming tweeted;

Emerson just took advantage of an opportunity for a free kick.
I thought all of the coalition MPs had been banned from using social media? I'm sure I read that on one of the political threads on ASF a week or so ago?
This silly tweet would provide excellent evidence of why such a ban is a very good idea.
No ban on the freedom of speech is a good idea.
LIBERAL Party candidates have been gagged ahead of next year's federal election, with Coalition backbench MPs under pressure to close their Twitter and other social media accounts.
Fairfax Media has learnt of a directive from the head office of the federal Liberal Party in an opposition bid to limit ''stuff-ups and scandals''. The directive to preselected candidates ''strongly advises'' against using Twitter and that tweeting on behalf of the Liberal Party is ''not encouraged''.
So in this particular instance, from a PR point of view, it certainly would have been a good idea!
