THE Australian government's hardline approach to asylum seekers was to blame for the drowning of 350 boatpeople off the Indonesian coast, a refugee action group has said.
"It is a consequence of the policies of the Australian government in terms of the criminalisation of the movement of refugees," Refugee Action Collective spokesman Simon O'Neill said.

Typical wankers.
I suppose it is our fault when drug users die of overdoses because we try to enforce drug laws.
I suppose it is our fault when a young car thief fell off a cliff whilst being chased, because we try to enforce car theft laws.
