about

What happened to John Robert Patterson? Well, he re-appeared a couple of years ago, after having done his time in jail, and immediately started talking publicly about the dangers of electromagnetic radiation. There's a small summation here. wakeup-world.com/2012/03/18/oz-mobile-tower-tank-protester-who-destroyed-6m-of-infrastructure-returns/
He's also featured in the documentary "full signal."

lyrics

Western Sydney: July '07. 4 Telstra towers and a sub-station down. John Robert Patterson you're a dead-set legend. I still can't believe tanks are just lying around.
A 90 minute low speed chase, those coppers couldn't do shit; lights flashing in the dimly lit streets of 6 suburbs 'till it stalled and they grabbed him.
When civilisation's rotting your brain, letters to council won't do you any good. Steal your bosses army tank. There goes the neighbourhood.
The tank's owner said "he had no beef with us. Its just the tool he needed for the job." But they pepper sprayed him, refused him bail, called him crazy and that's all there is to it.
