this is a joke... we face a $20k fine for breaching the exclusion zone around rena! yet the crew, the company and that bloody ship which have all caused this disaster costing in the tens of millions, only face a $10k fine or up to a year in prison!?!?!? wheres the justice in that? they cost nz millions and will potentially get off lighter than if i breached the exclusion zone. justice is not blind, its ignorant.
