If you're "into" strange women, then you should certainly be "into" rubber.

Why the Government for FS :unsure: Do you want a law to protect you from such things :unsure: Can't you just post a shit load of messages and get rid of it yourself?

See that's exactly what this thread has been about. Stuff the Government

and do it yourself.....

By the way,

welcome to the mad house

This thread is hilarious....However, 788 reads & 99 replies I think that this issue is so got under the skin of all NZérs, it maybe time to send PC back to the the countries it came from, along with the fascists we currently enjoy holding the Treasury benchs.

Just throw the bastards out in this year's election, send Helen back to her ivory tower, send the union organisers back to work, and leave us alone, we can manage without these pricks.

I will need a couple of Stella's after this post, it's always the good things in life that prevail, since 1366.......

I'm not politically correct. I am no racist and feel highly offended at the
suggestion that I might exhibit racism by allowing children to use
playdough or make potato stamps. It isn't as if they're carving swastika stamps in the potatoes. This article in the Herald reveals political correctness taken to the verge of lunacy:

Kids, put down that playdough ... it's culturally offensive

13.02.05
By AMANDA SPRATT

Playdough, potato stamps and the use of other food for art and play has
been banned by some kindergartens because it is considered offensive to
Maori and other cultures.

Pre-school teachers say the ban is out of respect to Maori beliefs that
food should be respected for its nutritional qualities and not used "as a
plaything".

And with New Zealand's growing immigrant population, kindergartens were
also finding some families from poor countries found it "repulsive" to
waste food on children's play activities.

Gone are macaroni collages and potato stamps from kindergartens around the
country. Some have even said no to playdough made from flour and water.

This comes just weeks after a Wellington City Council holiday programme
co-ordinator was told not to use real eggs for egg and spoon races, partly
because it offended "some cultures".

Kindergarten teachers gave the Herald On Sunday various reasons for banning
food in play. One teacher said it was because many families struggled to
put food on the table, let alone waste it on a collage. Another said it was
to "honour the Treaty of Waitangi".

Auckland Kindergarten Association professional services manager Jean Elmer
said most centres had stopped using pasta and potatoes years ago,
substituting natural resources like fallen leaves and eggshells.

Maori academic Ranganui Walker said: "Food demands a certain respect. I
never thought about it when I was young but I guess these days cultural
things are coming to the fore as Maori culture asserts itself."

However, Dr Malcolm Brown, of AUT's social sciences department, said he was
"hard-pressed" to come up with a culture that would have a problem with
using food in play.

Auckland Somali Community Association chairman Mahad Warsame said a lot of
people were "dying for food", and Muslims found it immoral to use food in
ways other than eating it.

"But we don't want to say to New Zealanders, you can't do this."
