Anti-protest laws giving police greater powers pass NSW parliament Anonymous 03/16/16 (Wed) 12:39:47 No.340417

Trespassing anti-coal seam gas advocates face heavier fines and greater jail sentences with tough new anti-protest laws passing through NSW parliament.

With the support of the Shooters and Fishers party and Christian Democrat Fred Nile, the controversial legislation was passed 20-16 in the upper house on Wednesday after minor amendments to the original proposal.

The bill gives police greater powers to search without a warrant, seize items and move protesters on, while fines for illegal entry to mining and CSG sites have increased tenfold from $550 to $5500.

Anti-CSG protesters who interfere with gas sites – including those who chain themselves to machinery – will also be exposed to a maximum jail sentence of seven years.

NSW anti-protest laws an attack on democracy, say legal experts

The Greens MP Jeremy Buckingham, who along with Labor voted against the legislation, condemned the changes as a “jackboot police crackdown on democratic rights”.

>“jackboot police crackdown on democratic rights”.

Sounds pretty par-for-the-course for the greens and labor parties: they've already mutilated gun rights to the point that the great firearms debate of Australia was "this lever action gun can be cycled too fast, therefore it's only for mass killings."

Gun control was a Liberal party policy enacted under a liberal government.

All major parties on both a state and federal level have been complicit in systematically destroying civil liberties in Australia.
