Why scary? How about a certain Jewish nwspr publishing the names and
addresses(or as good as!) of One Nation Party members?

: I ran a traceroute to his IP [216.15.134.113]  And his host is

so you say.....is that then any reason to have the _whole_ site removed?
How this has occurred(or why) I do not know. Whatever: this morning it 
was there, now it ain't! _IF_ it has been taken down by court order...why
not just the 'photos'? Hmmmmm.....does yr support for free speech extend
as far as Voltaire's?

: And it only takes one fueled up gun nut to make a 'big fella' of

Whatever...you could say that about a fuelled up....anybody!
His point remains unanswered: if ordinary citizens are now deprived of
the right to own firearms for self-defence and are left vulnerable...why
shouldn't pollies be made to feel a bit vulnerable too?
(I don't necessarily agree with their argmnts...but, he has a point,
wouldn't you agree?)

cheers!
