anyone else find it just a bit retarded that the very act of applying for a permit can be used to revoke a prior one? that’s some idiotic regulation… so if I don’t like you and your cause all I have to do is maliciously follow you around double-applying behind your back to get all your shit canceled?
any lawmaker with common sense (ha ha, I made an oxymoron) would have made it “first come, first served” – we got here first, fuck you, go reschedule.

What time did you go? There were well over 200 people there…

Unless you were in another universe?

We left the square at about 2.30-3 and we were supposed to meet there at 2.

Following on from Anonette:
Everyone make sure you have plenty of water and wear sunscreen. If you’re not wearing a party hat, wear something with a wide brim. We don’t want pictures of mass gatherings of Anonymous passed out from heatstroke!

Moar Inportant copypasta, regarding human rights violations by the Co$:

Article 12

No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks.

http://www.un.org/Overview/rights.html

Article 16

(1) Men and women of full age, without any limitation due to race, nationality or religion, have the right to marry and to found a family. They are entitled to equal rights as to marriage, during marriage and at its dissolution.

(2) Marriage shall be entered into only with the free and full consent of the intending spouses.

(3) The family is the natural and fundamental group unit of society and is entitled to protection by society and the State.

http://www.un.org/Overview/rights.html

Article 18 Freedom of religion and belief (1998)

This report addresses the human right to freedom of religion and belief in Australia under article 18 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. The right includes the freedom to have or adopt a religion or belief of one’s choice, including theistic, non-theistic and atheistic beliefs.

The freedom of religion and belief extends to the right to manifest one’s religion or belief in worship, observance, practice and teaching. The right to manifest a belief is subject only to limitations provided by law which are necessary to protect public safety, order, health or morals or the fundamental rights and freedoms of others.

The report concludes that current laws are inadequate to protect the right to manifest Indigenous beliefs and religious beliefs concerning autopsies and medical procedures such as blood transfusions. It recommends the development of appropriate laws and guidelines which properly accommodate the right to manifest these beliefs and practices. Laws criminalising some Pagan practices are discriminatory, violate the freedom of belief and should be repealed.

The report recommends the enactment of a federal Religious Freedom Act covering all aspects of the right. The Act should make discrimination and vilification on the ground of religion and belief unlawful.
