To Lovely Lady From Pukekohe
To the lovely lady, who met my son at the $2 shop, and saw that he was stressed, thank you. You asked if he was okay, and he told you he was been chased by High School boys. (Son, first year intermediate.), You decided to walk him home, as he was frightened, and for a bit, the boys followed you., but eventually left. Thank you. You rang for me to meet up, with my son, but by the time I got there, you were gone. So I just want you to know how much I appreciate what you did for my son, and how I won't forget your kind act, of helping a young one in need. Thank you for the water, he says. Thank you for helping him, he says. A thousand thank you's isn't enough. It maybe a small deed to some, but my heart is full of praise for the wonderful deed, you did today. Thank you...
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.
