  1. Justice is always too late for the victim, potential victims should be allowed to arm themselves with a list of police approved weapons with full protection of their self defense law (Meaning no cucked liberals to be allowed to decide what is justified and what is not)

  2. What happened to the gang patch ban? I was in Rotorua yesterday and could see black power patches in the CBD. That was after I was approached 3 times in 5 minutes by people asking for money.

    Macpac had had their door smashed. Bet there’s no reporting on that.

    Labour has ruined this country.
