I love Queensland, I really do. But…

…I fear it is becoming a Police State again.

I know that for the most part, rules exist because dumb people have set a precedent for legal action, against which the law must act to protect itself.

However, I think things are going a bit too far.

At the moment a trial is being held on the use of taser guns, to test for their proper use. A man suffered a heart attack after being electrically shocked by tasers 28 times by police. You know, I think 1 or 2 shocks would have conveyed a more understandable message.

Bob Atkinson (Police Commissioner) has deemed the 8 speed cameras to be installed in the new Clem 7 tunnel to be the  only thing left to do to ‘keep you and your family alive’. BULLSHIT.

I think we should all watch this space because soon we’ll be prohibited to move in packs of 3 or more, to protest, to think ungodly and liberal thoughts and to generally act in a human, intelligent and thoughtful way. My God, the ‘peanut farmer’ would be positively dancing in his grave.

With grave fear for our liberty,

Yolande, frankly.
