On other matters
What made this soccer coach take these young soccer players to the cave that caused a lot of grief towards the family and rescuers to get these boys out? John, Deeral Atticus and Progressive (CP 17/8) on Lauren Southern visit – it’s called free speech. Many of our fellow Australians have given the ultimate price to protect it. You may not agree with this woman or her views, however, you and those aggressives protesting have no right to stop others from hearing her views. For the record I have never heard of her or have any interest to do so. Paul F, Cairns Cairns Airport should take responsibility for the security breach rather than blame the individual who just walked back through an inadequate “security” exit lane past a dozy security guard. Sebrof, Stratford Federal Labor hopeful Elida Faith (CP 17/8), Senator Claire Moore and Bill Shorten. Word of advice. Go back home. We don’t need a witch hunt. All you are doing is closing the door on unskilled jobs that we need. Don, Earlville Billionaire philanthropists (CP 17/7) assume that since they have a heap of cash that they’re omniscient. In fact, this demographic does more harm to our societies than any other. Maurice Strong, for example, conceived the global warming hoax and then lived out his last years in China. Woz, Parramatta Park Does anyone else realise that the Reef is extremely old; everything on this planet never gets younger, it regenerates itself. I reckon that the Reef and crocs will be here well after the human race has fizzled out. Icarus, Atherton Anyone who celebrates government making things mandatory or prohibiting them (Fran Clayton, 17/7) really needs to read George Orwells Nineteen Eightyfour, written in 1949. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t end well for the main character who merely wanted the freedom to be happy. Miss T, Tolga Crocs have got more protection than little unborn babies. Unborn babies are where crocs should be. Thanks ALP, we remember you. Tim, Earlville Thanks to the Cairns Post for the free giant colouring-in poster of the treehouse. So kids let’s colour-in. Nelly, Woree
