announced tragedy
I posted this 116 days ago about the safety of our pet rabbit. Pancake is now dead, killed by this very same dog, according to workers who were on a roof close by. We are devastated by the loss of our beloved 5 year old Pancake. The workers also said that a neighbour came to see the scene, but did not inform us of anything (we could make have tried to resuscitate her. I don't know if the person who came was the owner of the dog who was let to wonder freely and is a true danger to small pets.
I want the owner to hear this: Having a dog comes with responsibility and respect for others. Don't have one if you are not capable of doing this.
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?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
