Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
-
76.3% Yes
-
22.3% No

1.3% Other - I'll share below

My Christmas tree lights controller exploded in a ball of flames last night, so please be careful, Ive had them for a few years. If I hadnt been in the room it would have been a fire.
