  1. Obviously the looney trans or they would have told us it was Destiny’s church or “right-wing” activist. The LGBT is a mental illness.

  2. Protestors turn up to stir up trouble and violence happens.

    But when the shoes on the other foot, it’s OK?

    This is the same as Posy Parker. People have the right to freedom of speech and expression.

    When you turn up to infringe on that right it gets heated.

    The fault here lies completely with the destiny church rent a mob
