Public March To Protest Anti-Smacking Bill.

I dont normally go in for marches and rallies, but this issue is too important too ignore.

Public March To Protest Anti-Smacking Bill

All Christchurch is encouraged to make the time to attend the Public March To Protest Anti-Smacking Bill.

When? Wednesday 28 March 12pm
Where? Victoria Square (close to Cathedral Square)
Speakers: Simon Barnett and Gary McCormick from MoreFM's show Si&Gary, Ali Jones from NewsTalk ZB.

www.politik.co.nz has all the information plus a map of where to meet.

This is quite likely the most significant protest march you will ever attend - do not miss it. We must show the Government - who have been ignoring the public - exactly what us Kiwis do think on this crucial issue.

Good parents will be criminalised if Bradford's bill becomes Law.

Make sure that it doesn't by supporting the march!

There will be marches also in Wellington, Nelson and Fielding. www.politik.co.nz has all the information on these marches, plus news updates, polls to vote in, petition forms and info on how to email the MPs.

*This march will be peaceful, and children will be present. If anyone turns violent, we will be helping the police cart you off to jail.

Hi Anonymous.
You obviously haven't kept up to date with the Section 59 debate.

It is not about anyone wanting to hit children.

Just as, in Cricket, a batter does not spank or smack the ball - he hits it, so in the family, a father or mother does not "hit" his/her child, rather, he lovingly spanks or smacks him.

And just for the record - I don't know about these "defenceless little kids" that you're refering to, as if they were the benchmark for what is good and true.

Children are not adults - Loving smacking applied occasionally in a caring home does not hurt a child permanently, but verbal abuse and family breakups do and will continue to even more so as CYFS enters homes, forcibly removing little kiddies from their familes, if Bradford's ridiculous little bill goes through.

Do you wear leathers and a Marlon Brando cap when you're riding your Harley Dirk?
