Bazz,

I don't know enough about these particular cases
to be able to comment. I do know that the people
involved from David McBride to Bernard Collaery
seem like decent people. They're backgrounds are
beyond reproach.

Of course it will be up to the judge or judges
involved in what is made public. We are a democracy
though - and the government must be careful in the
way it is perceived to behave.

We have a right to question things as ttbn has pointed out.

Dear Ttbn,

«Everyone, and particularly government, is subject to the law.»

Wow, such naivety!
I would usually expect such kind of statements from Foxy, who actually pleasantly surprises me here with her matured and balanced responses, yet not from anyone over 5 years old: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VucczIg98Gw

«Government may not do anything save that which the law authorises it to do.»

Government may do whatsoever pleasures them because they have the guns, the dogs, the helicopters, the prisons, the surveillance, the communication controls and the deep-seated fear of ordinary good citizens. Nothing limits them apart from the laws of nature and the laws of God.

Yuyutsu,

You really are a weirdo.
