Anti-Gamer South Australian Attorney General Quits

Posted by timothy on from the usually-the-car-holds-more-clowns dept.

dogbolter writes "South Australian Attorney General, Michael Atkinson, infamous for the banning of R18+ rated games and the censoring of political comment in Australia, has quit. The recent South Australian election provided a massive swing against Atkinson's governing labor party. As a direct result of the South Australian election result, he is standing down. Hopefully someone with half a clue will assume the vacant post and overturn the decision to ban adult oriented computer games."

      How many other Aussie stories not tagged?

      Slashdot mods were bad enough when they ignored everyone outside the USA besides Roland Piquepaille, but now that Roland is dead they ignore every one outside the USA and Australia.

      Believe it or not the US is not the centre of the universe

      As an American, I must disagree with you. We are, in fact, the center of the known Universe.
