"You can't legislate against stupidity. This is a tragedy but it was avoidable... You can only get there by ferry, and there are signs there saying watch out for the bloody Invalid Link Removed. If you go in swimming at 10 o'clock at night, you're going to get consumed." – Warren Entsch, Government MP
