Now to hear from those celebrating a woman's death...really hating our justice system right now. Things need to change.
I am Australian.. when I talk of 'chucking ' people, I mean pushing, shoving, hurling.... so Australians do mean exactly that when they say 'chucking'..

#BREAKING Gable Tostee not guilty of murder #tostee
Not the ones I know, otherwise chucking back a beer would be awfully dangerous.
Just yesterday I physically picked up my child, restrained him, put him in his bedroom and closed the door. I told my husband that I chucked him in his room. I use the word "chuck" a lot. I chuck my bag in the car, I chuck my shopping on the table. I chuck something in the fridge. Doesn't mean I throw it. It means I put something somewhere.
Seems people are taking a word said in the heat of the moment, giving it a literal interpretation and insisting that GT must have meant the literal interpretation.
