Bikies can't be friends anymore

In Australia there's been a large amount of violence which has been labled a 'war' between various bikie gangs. In particular, the Rebel's and the Comanchero's, but it is threatening to spill over to other gangs.

In response, the NSW government has just passed a law making it a criminal offence for gang members to be seen associating with each other in an attempt to stem the rising tide of violence.

While I can understand the motivation for such a law, I can't help but think this is an infringement of their civil liberties.
