Hard News: Dropping the Bomber, in reply to DCBCauchi,
It’s about empowering that person to manage those tendencies within a supportive environment. We know how to do this. Ultimately, that environment would be an open and tolerant society, one that looks after all its members equally.
Once again, what’s so outrageous about that?I guess we could chain the intolerant ones up
and what about those who want to be there... -

I thought that show pony was euthanized a while back...
On January 7, 2003, Charisma was euthanized at Mark Todd's Rivermonte Farm in Cambridge, after breaking a shoulder in the field. He was 30 years old. He was a much loved New Zealander and will always be missed and remembered

Der Wallies...
The staging of Diwali festivities in Aotea Square was an absolute winner this past weekend, as was the closure of the adjacent stretch of Queen Street for the food stalls.
Whereas Christchurch City Council, in its wisdom, chose to hamper the possible staging of the popular Diwali Festival in favour of providing parking for RWC Fanzone attendees - so sorry stressed populace, no celebration of the triumph of good over evil for you this year, Brownlee must be proud of his muppets in office - tossers!
The Indian community is disappointed their annual Diwali Festival has been cancelled in favour of providing parking space for the Rugby World Cup fanzone.
This is the first year since the annual event started five years ago it will not go ahead....and it was hardly reported, I saw it in the community Mail and that was about all, aside from the linked blog above.
Camping within tent...
Has anyone seen any word on how many instant fines have been issued under the Freedom Camping laws that were pushed through under urgency
Down South they didn't fine anyone
In the Wairarapa it seems to be a non-issue
Round the Queenstown Lakes area they found out that LINZ (Land Information New Zealand) land isn't included in the law's coverage
I'm sure I saw a headline that the first (and maybe only) Freedom Camper had been fined somewhere, but I can't find it on the web...
Hang on here it is
So it looks like another piece of non-essential, or useful, legislation raced through for no good reason...a Prieur commitment...
Westhaven is totally chocker with campervans.
...I noticed a lot of French flags there too.Hopefully none of them had Zodiacs on the roof...
