I wish people would stop saying the Terrorble laws will enable the police to detain terrorism suspects for up to 14 days without charge
They will enable police to detain anyone for 14 days without charge.
People seem to have forgotten the first rule of acceptable legislation: imagine it applying to you. And if it doesn't appear to affect you, imagine the people who administer it making a massive mistake. Then imagine yourself caught up in it because of that mistake.
Do you really think that ASIO doesn't make mistakes? These are the people who think Scott Parkin did something wrong. And even if they were correct and he was teaching civil disobedience tactics; they're also the people who thought that was a deportable offence.
