I went to the rally against Tasmania’s proposed anti-protest laws today (ABC coverage, Bob Brown Foundation post, Bob Brown’s Speech). One of the things mentioned is a petition to be put to the Legislative Council against these laws:

While poking around the Tassie Parliament web site, I found what might best be described as a “mirror petition” (notably with less than a tenth of the support of the first petition):

So, for those in Tasmania, please do choose your petition carefully
