Strange to see some of the right wing cookers on Twitter raising #TomPhillips as a martyr for fathers rights unjustly killed by the cops.

HE ABDUCTED HIS KIDS, THEN SHOT A COP IN THE HEAD OF COURSE THEY WERE GOING TO KILL HIM.

I have no sympathy for child abductors.

My God, someone has already listed Erin Patterson's house as Patterson's Pastries on Google Maps.

I'm 100% going to avoid that place I hear the Beef Wellington is killer.

I hate it when #COVID19 denialists say "It's just a Flu" Influenza is not a mild illness at all it hospitalises and kills many people a year.

It would be a good idea to be up to date with BOTH your Flu jab and COVID boosters minimise your risk of getting seriously unwell.

Measles =/= chicken pox

Measles lasts longer, is contagious for longer, is more contagious, has higher fevers, and a higher mortality rate.

And we had functionally eradicated measles in the US until we decided science was a silly waste of time.

There never were measles parties before there was a measles vaccine. Unlike chicken pox, measles wasn't a mild disease in children. It killed. Nobody back then would have deliberately exposed their children to measles.

MTG is lying about measles parties.

The best defence against #Measles is to not get fucking Measles!! and the best way to do that is the MMR Jab...........

It's tried, it's tested it's long established you cannot claim it's experimental.

I wish people stopped being fuckwits and did the sensible thing. Measles is no joke.

So RFK Jr says Measles Infection is a "Good Thing" because it gives lifetime protection.

That is a bonkers and downright irresponsible thing to say Measles can be dangerous and nobody should recommend getting it!!!

These draconian sentences should have been quashed for all of them. Protest if not harming anyone should not result in years in prison.

What would you rather.

1. Be stuck in traffic for a few hours.

or

2. Face a shitty climate catastrophe harming us all.

This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II.

Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

Dear Europe. You are on your own against Russia. Time to bring Ukraine into NATO and if the US balks at it, cut them free. Take the fight to Trump’s desk and make him swear allegiance to Putin publicly or back down.

People already know Donald Trump is unfit to be President but how he treated Zelensky today proves what a complete and utter c*nt he is.

Time for every world leader with a shread of decency tell Agent Orange to go and fuck a cactus.

Ultimately a good decision in the end, I feel like we should be restoring birth right citizenship in New Zealand time to right a 19 year wrong. Why should a child be punished for the actions of their parents.

Also the notion of anchor babies doesn't exist!!!!!!

With Brian Tamaki openly admitting he directly instructed his followers to storm the Te Atatu Peninsula Library on Saturday, I will be personally insulted if he isn't charged with inciting riotous behaviour likely to cause violence. He's directly and publicly admitted guilt.

"Real Men" do not intimidate children and terrify toddlers

I kind of think it's time Destiny Church were classified as a gang.

Ban their insignia as gang patches and look at their membership with suspicion.

Around 30 adults and young children had to be barricaded into a room in a library in West Auckland this afternoon, when a group linked to Destiny Church tried to drown out a Pride Festival Event.

Two attacks, using force (people were injured at the library, "breaking through" police barricades here), against the queer community of Auckland in one day by Destiny.

We are owed an explanation as to why there are thus far zero arrests. There may BE a good explanation, but if so we are owed it.

Real men don’t barricade women and children. Real men don’t threaten and intimidate. Real men don’t preach hate. Real men DO show respect, compassion & love. Real men are comfortable enough in who they are to celebrate the diversity of others. Brian Tamaki you are just a boy.

Is there a bigger prick out there in Aotearoa than Brian Tamaki? I am genuinely struggling to find one.

If you and your minions try and shut down a pride parade you are a class A CU Next Tuesday.
