Australian Govt Holding Secretive Anti-Piracy Talks

daria42 writes "Looks like Australia's Government prefers to keep its ongoing anti-piracy discussions behind closed doors. It held an initial meeting in September last year to try to get the content and ISP industries to thrash out an agreement on how to handle Internet piracy. Consumer representative groups were explicitly blocked from attending the meeting, and attendees are not allowed to reveal what was discussed behind closed doors. Now a second meeting has been held, and again, no information has been revealed about what's being discussed. Quelle conspiracy?"

    a good turning-point you fucking redneck. guns might not kill people, but idiots with guns kill people, so take the guns away from the idiots and they just sit there and drool (at least better than killing people).
    there are still guns (and drugs and any other contraband item you can think of) but at least there is less, and less is better.
    thank goodness we don't suffer the rediculous "right to bear arms" frogshit that Americans have to put up with.
    if you want a gun that bad, get a license and join a gun club. otherwise, shut the fuck up.
