I'd like to know EXACTLY why this self-righteous, venom spewing, vile piece of human excrement, bible -bashing ( my own personal opinion here of course) Israel Folau hasn't be brought upon Discrimination Charges under the Anti-Discrimination Laws in Australia?
Is it simply because we now have a Happy-Clappy, Jesus Chappy as Prime Minister?
Or is it because the Religious Faithfools have a 'free hand' to say whatever they so desire?

May I suggest you be careful with referring to rural and remote towns/communities as being " hick towns and poorly educated."
We, way out here in Woop woop, may not have ALL the fancy amenities that you namby pamby city folk have lavished upon you simply because the Liberal-National Party cosset you with year after year to ENSURE you vote for them but we are well educated, for the major part, we DO have schools, we do have television, bloody boring as it may be at most times, and we have always been the major part of the Food Bowl, etc, of this country.
I don't know much about it, but I guess he is free to show his faith? After all I post religious memes all the time and no one sent me to jail.

Folau's rants were directed at specific peoples which, technically, breach the Anti-Discrimination Law as far as I can tell. His comments/rants CAN also be taken as actual Threats in a legal sense.
I too ridicule and disparage religions at every opportunity BUT, mostly, I avoid aiming my comments at specific persons/people.
Being a life-long Atheist WITH a Doctorate degree in Theology and Comparative Modern Religions also helps.
However, Folau merely directed his religious rants in the direction of specific people/s and their life-style choices and, in my opinion, is REYING solely upon the ideology of 'Religious Freedom' to protect him from legal repercussions as do ever so many other Faithfoools out there.
