THE nauseating canonisation of executed convicted heroin smugglers Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran was well under way before their corpses had been returned to their families.
At Castle Hill High, the words merciless, barbaric, futile and weak were plastered on the noticeboard on Wednesday by principal Vicki Brewer after students expressed horror at the executions of Chan and Sukumaran, and six others in Indonesia.
I think its affecting students and staff, theyve been chilled by it, haunted by it and theres been certainly a good deal of reflection and discussion about the ethical and moral dilemmas this has caused, she told the Hills Shire Times.

But some of what is happening now is getting quite ridiculous - we have High Schools pushing a very clear political agenda on their children (as a secondary school teacher myself, this drives me crazy - I believe it is my overwhelming role to teach kids how to think, not what to think) and the Australian Catholic University creating scholarships in memory of the drug smugglers...
Never mind the politics - what message is this sending to kids about illegal drugs?
Two goofballs got a Darwin award.
It was probably a cheesy spot, and I haven't seen it in about 45+ years --
But I remember it.
Stupid people who break laws and do it in the wrong spot should not be idolized by anyone.
Darwin award? But they were both from Sydney.
I see what you did there...
Well, bye.
Chan and Sukumaran knew very well they were risking their lives.
“Stupid people who break laws and do it in the wrong spot should not be idolized by anyone.”
I agree. Let’s start with the money laundering banks, DEA and CIA.
We're at the point where that ol' lady could have been rolling in the mud at Woodstock, tripping her head off while Hendrix was wailing on the guitar. Old ladies were once young, and they may not have been so innocent.
Sob stories stopped impressing me a long time ago. The poor little victims are only very rarely poor little victims. Some of them are nasty pieces of work.
Ah yes, the evil CIA. Enjoy the march in Baltimore tonight and say hello to your pal Al Sharpton for me.
No, Al is your buddy. You remember Al worked for the FBI, another bastion of federal corruption.
But maybe Anderson Cooper did some CNN reporting on the riots. He worked for your beloved CIA.
Sharpton was deposed by the FBI's lawyers regarding the Genovese crime family - back when he was stabbed by a suspected Genovese soldier.
Anderson Cooper was a summer intern at the CIA when he was in college.
You are really reaching.
Do you actually trust the Feds and their 3 letter Gestapo organizations?
There probably some good individuals there, but the whole idea behind the Federal government as it exists today is to oppress and torment the people.
We are definitely NOT a free republic. We are run by a Satanic elite oligarchy. Our government is in the process of waging war against the people. The top enemies are conservatives, vets, gun owners, and Bible based Christians, and the Feds are overtly and intentionally directing their legal, police and propaganda media against these groups. Hopefully, you’re not a member of any of those groups. The Federal government is also making our military weak and vulnerable to outside enemies and this is intentional.
If you think that’s hilarious, then the joke’s on you. Wake up wideawake, this isn’t the 1980s and Ronald Reagan is not the president It’s a brave new world.
