Saddened to read yesterday of hate attacks in Sydney. Freedoms are so fragile, especially in a world where spite and malice openly expressed in the so-called free world are on the rise.
Thanks David. We're in the middle of a Marriage Equality - Yes / No - postal survey (a sop to the Tory right wing) and of course the debate gives cause to the nasties to vent their bile. And unsurprisingly, and sadly, it is fuelled by religion and its fear mongering, screaming for their freedom to hate, at the expense of those seeking the freedom to have their love get equal recognition.
Sooner or later we will catch up with the rest of the world on this issue. But as you say, there's pain being inflicted, and lives damaged.

Light at the end of the tunnel between Enmore and Newtown.
Excellent.
