Where's his office?
Whether he sees you or not, his office's staff will. A pile of
letters or emails can easily be put out of sight, out of mind. You
can't.
I think the trick is to also get Ordinary Australians™ to see what's
going on here.
People blogging about it and whathaveyou is really positive but it
needs to get the hell out of this echo chamber. Yes, *we* all
understand, but as far as the rest of the world is concerned it's
something 'sensible' the Government is doing to 'protect the kiddies'.
I would really like to see some sort of awareness exercise, in person,
someplace obvious (I'm in Melbourne, so Southbank or Flinders St Stn)
where everyday people can see us complaining. If a bunch of 4chan
kids in masks can get decent coverage when protesting against
Scientology there's no reason why that can't happen again.
