Good on you Israel Folau! Sporting groups should not pressure their fold to vote yes. Not every player will vote yes or no! So stay out of pressuring people to vote one way or the other. – Charlie

If federal govt cannot make a simple decision regarding same sex marriage, why put the onus on you and me? Will our vote mean anything to the radical Senate? – Brenjon

John Z, very offended by your thoughtless comments regarding reproducing and marriage. What about the married couples who, for whatever reason, can’t have children? Should we not be called married?

It wasn’t all that long ago we voted yes for GST and we all know how that’s worked out. Before you vote yes think about what it could mean.

To anonymous (15/9). I’m not upset with anyone, simply heterosexual couples get married and then sadly find that one is infertile. Same-sex couples know they can’t reproduce before uniting. That’s the difference. – John Z

Funny how, depending upon your vote, the bullies are always on the opposing side! Yes or no, keep it to yourself.

Maree, you need a dose of compassion. Voting no to spite Mr Turnbull is a waste. Why not vote yes and feel good about bringing some happiness to some people who would like to marry?

This is what happens when electricity is privatised. Companies can hold us to ransom, more so if they’re owned overseas. Sheer madness.

Anyone would think Ashy is the only person who has used a disabled parking bay illegally. I know so-called disabled people who use those bays and then spend 2 to 3 hours walking from one end of a shopping centre to the other. – Barney

Ashy Bines, unbelievable regularly parking illegally in a disability parking space. First to acknowledge she has made a mistake? Which time? Oh, when she’s caught out. I have a disability parking permit and see the likes of Ashy Bines every day. I take a few photos on my phone. Always younger women, often with abled children, always “busy” when confronted.

OK, Ashy, you made a mistake but don’t be scared of these gutless wonders who send these worthless death threats etc. They are a sad lot of loners. – Father Bob

I’m pleading to whoever picked up my son’s mobile phone at Helensvale Station to hand it in to Qld Rail please. He is autistic and really needs it. It is a Samsung in a blue case and it is registered in lost property with Qld Rail.

I hope whoever buys the Titans knows something about the game. Unlike present management. Frustrated supporter. – CP

Every night people sleeping in cars, campervans, caravans, mobile homes and buses all on the side streets of main beach. Many using gardens as toilets. Authorities do nothing!

Titans have no chance while not one of their board members has any football experience. Sack the board. – Dave

Karen I see you have not been involved with any surf club as all lifesavers are volunteers and spend a lot of time on patrols and when they have a break someone else takes over from them. – X Lifesaver

Karen, that’s a bit rough! The lifesavers need to fuel their bodies to do their life-saving work and you bag them?
