  • Pirates of the Australian Election Matthew Rimmer, Australian National University College of Law
    Queensland University of Technology From the SelectedWorks of Matthew Rimmer March 26, 2013 Pirates of the Australian Election Matthew Rimmer, Australian National University College of Law Available at: https://works.bepress.com/matthew_rimmer/151/ Pirates of the Australian Election The Global Mail Dr Matthew Rimmer “Pirate parties” have proliferated across Europe and North America in the past decade, championing issues such as intellectual property (IP), freedom of speech, and the protection of privacy and anonymity. This year, the movement hit Australian shores: The Pirate Party Australia was officially registered by the Australian Electoral Commission in January 2013. (You can read its principles and platform here.) “More than ever before, there is a necessity in Australia for a party that holds empowerment, participation, free culture and openness as its central tenets”, Pirate Party founder Rodney Serkowski said in a press release announcing the group’s successful registration. Their first test will be this year’s federal election, scheduled for September 14, in which the fledgling party will contest Senate seats in New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria. There has been much political discussion as to how Pirate Party Australia will fare in September’s poll. The Swedish Piratpartiet has two members in the European Parliament. The German Pirate Party has won seats in regional and municipal elections. The Czech Pirate Party had a member elected to the national parliament. But pirate parties contesting elections in the United Kingdom and North American have failed to make an electoral impact. Will Pirate Party Australia emulate the success of its European counterparts? Or will the Pirate Party Australia struggle to gain attention and votes as a micro-party in a crowded field? They might find that the times suit them: this year’s election is shaping up as a battle royal over IP.

Seung-Hui Cho murdered 32 people, wounded 17 others, and took his life at Virginia Polytechnic Institute that day. Although many critical details surrounding the event were unknown or unclear immediately after it took place, local and national media outlets published as much information as possible, even at the risk of inaccurate reporting. For example, one of the first reports published by the media after the rampage described “unimaginable horror as some students were lined up against a wall and shot” by the gunman, who was supposedly not a student and was looking for his girlfriend (Hauser & O’Connor). It was later confirmed that the shooter was 23-year-old Virginia Tech student Seung-Hui Cho, who was not only classified as mentally ill, but was also deemed “an imminent danger to self and others” by a district court in Montgomery County, Virginia, in December of 2005 (Effron).
