Shit! Well, sorry!? I didn't mean that as a personal attack to anyone in particular, especially not on AZ/Lemmy. I was mildly praising the Law Council, a fairly staid and conservative grouping of the 'powers that be', likely made up of an 'in group' of Australian power players. So I see them as a group that wouldn't always understand or accept the problems with an overly securitised state.
