'Rip your head off': Police Minister's foul-mouthed Facebook joke with 'mate' AngusGthompson
NSW Police Minister David Elliott has defended a graphic, tongue-in-cheek comment in which he posted "I will rip your head off and s--- in the hole" in a suburban fathers' Facebook group as a joke between friends.
In an "admin note" further down the post, time-stamped from Monday morning, Mr Elliott justified the post as a "self depreciating [sic] joke"."Benson is a mate of mine who I have praised many times in the past and has helped me through one or two tough days of late, so whoever screenshot this and sent it to the media and Labor Party should know that your humourless attitude has been noted and reported back to me," he said.
