From: johnpf at atnet.net.au (John) Subject: Australia becomes a police state [serious] Sounds like Queensland pre Wayne Goss. I got in a _lot_ of trouble with the Special Branch in those days. They had those sort of powers, the only recourse you had was that if they tore your house/gear apart 3 times in 6 months without an arrest you could go them for harrassment. Typically I'd get raided, then again in 3 months, then again in 3 months and 1 day. We could predict the _exact_ day we'd be raided, as they made a point of not having 3 raids within any 6 month period.
