[TheList] Rob G. OFF TOPIC

Wed Feb 13 10:17:48 AEDT 2013

Fancy meeting a nice fella like you in a place like this. :-)

I don't think there's any grey about him being a rat.

I am very much an on-the-fence guy from a political standpoint but I'd be voting this fella off the island in the very first episode of Survivor. :-)

Even if you're not personally involved in activism or any other 'fringe' political movements the idea of Police informants in those areas should be abhorrent.  It nibbles away at the pillars democracy, and is very much 'Big Brother' etc.  Insert rhetoric about free and open society here.. ->  <-

Right, lunch..

Hi Chris

Depends on how you see police informers in relation to political activism. As
far as I'm concerned he is a rat and betrayed many people who trusted him.

Also as a result, those of us who might move in those circles are wise to keep
our interest in radio a secret, or we are understandably under suspicion as well.

Cheers
Andrew (you know who - yes I'm here as well :-))
