- Comment on Australians Overwhelmingly In Support Of Gun Law Reform 2 days ago:
If a Labor government can just opportunistically ban one kind of protest an LNP can easily just ban another.
A lot of aged Qld ALP members were dismayed when Qld cracked down on protests under the previous state ALP government, saying the legislation nearly exacrly mirrored the Bjelke-Petersen Governments Union anti protest laws. Didn’t help though… (mostly climaye protests becase protesting the destruction of the enviorment and the likely collapse of civilisation is apparently not on)
I notice the Greens supported the revised gun laws but were against more protest crack downs, so voters do have a choice.

- Comment on Nuclear and Fossil Fuels Join Forces to Undermine Renewables 2 weeks ago:
And there has been another – in my view, very sinister – development, which has put back the cause of action on climate change into very dangerous territory: the latest “nuclear renaissance”.
The government subsidies are simply huge: a nuclear tax is being levied on hard pressed consumers. What is the government thinking of? The fossil fuel industry, which has thrown its weight behind nuclear power, is of course delighted; all these decades of new construction without any electricity to show for it gives at least another decade or two of unabated burning gas

https://www.hrw.org/news/2002/08/03/us-hague-invasion-act-becomes-law
U.S. President George Bush today signed into law the American Servicemembers Protection Act of 2002, which is intended to intimidate countries that ratify the treaty for the International Criminal Court (ICC). The new law authorizes the use of military force to liberate any American or citizen of a U.S.-allied country being held by the court, which is located in The Hague. This provision, dubbed the “Hague invasion clause,” has caused a strong reaction from U.S. allies around the world, particularly in the Netherlands.
