Facebook bans and Zombie marches

Things are pretty crazy in Australia. My last post discussed a political party that was formed by gamers, and they were running for elections. Since then, The ban on mature games has passed, and gamers are scrambling to change this. Some gamers formed a group  named "Grow Up Australia" on Facebook. It seems that some members of the group were posting hateful comments about the South Australian Attorney General. As a result, Facebook removed the group page because the comments went against facebook's policies.

On a related note, Australian gamers are dressing up as zombies and marching in protest of the mature game ban. The protest is happening next week ( the site didn't give me a date), so that'll be pretty cool. It may or may not have happened already because there's a picture gallery up (maybe this is from a different zombie parade?) Anyway, the march is happening in Sydney, Australia.

P.S. Spring Break is killing me =\ so many papers to write.
