AUSTRALIA - This week will see abhorrent Legislation passed in the Queensland Parliament regarding what are now called CRIMINAL MOTORCYCLE GANGS

OFF THE WIRE
This week will see abhorrent Legislation passed in the Queensland Parliament regarding what are now called CRIMINAL MOTORCYCLE GANGS that throws out 1000 years of human rights development , ignores the Magna Carta and shows utter contempt for the 100 thousand or more Australian service personnel who have died in the service of this country; died scared, lonely and in lands far away bringing freedom to the people of those lands and deposing Dictators who had forced secret trials and marginalised groups of people in their countries. This legislation will without doubt impact on ordinary motorcyclists, but the issue is the disenfranchisement of any group of people for any reason, except terrorism, in any country.

The actions of the State Government in the last week in deploying Police with assault weapons, armoured vehicles and generally tactics used to intimidate are disgraceful.

We, as logical, intelligent human beings, cannot allow these actions to continue. The terror caused to young children seeing these weapons of war deployed on our streets is unacceptable. The incoherent illogical intent by the Government to BAN people from being able to earn a legitimate living to feed their families is straight from the Marxist Manifesto and Chairman Mao's little red book. The sheer notion of peoples families being punished due to the fact their men folk are simply members of something, without personal criminal record is a crime in itself.

The actions of this Government are in clear breach of the articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights listed at the end of this post.

This weekend just gone has been a struggle intellectually, morally and ethically. My conclusion is that these illegal Acts by Government must be stopped. Not by words alone, but by peaceful resistance. Words are necessary however to plan resistance, but before doing so I will seek legal advice on what i can and can't do.

If you agree with this post, please share it. We will prevail good people.
