| German, AGREED!
Speak to Australians and they will tell you all about freedom, free speech etc, etc, etc too. But peoples lack of interest and a believe that "this won't happen to us" is what is allowing people to make decisions based on political issues and not actual knowledge of the situation and equipment for their own political gains. You are right, it can happen any where. Five years ago I would have been the first to stand up and say "this will never happen". Allowing people to take hold of a political powerful position when they are on the extremes of any point of view is dangerous. We are loosing our rights here under the umbrella of animal welfare. We are fighting hard but our oposition has a lot of power, influence and money. Makes the fight a little one sided.
