A Mangawhai couple - who've already suffered abusive graffiti and had their business's entire stock destroyed by arson six months back - have now found fresh vandalism on their fence - "God hates dikes + qeers" (sic): yeup, the coward/s can't even spell!
The "dikes" in question (I'm guessin' the scrot/s meant "dykes"!) are not flood stopbanks at all - they're actually grandmothers Juliet Leigh and Lindsay Curnow, who've lived happily in the
community for seven years.That January fire destroyed the shed where their business operated from, along with equipment, records, and all product, incl. their entire stock for the 2011 bulb planting season. It forced the couple to sell their business, Blooming Bulbs, and prepare to head back to Auckland...
You'd think this sort of homophobic crap would be pretty much dinosaur doos nowadays. After all, sex between men has been legal in NZ since 1986...and although sex between women was not illegal, many lesbians suffered the same discrimination as gay men back then. But not only is this couple open and honest, but they're also legally joined in a civil union.
It's a damn shame two hardworking people have had their livelihood destroyed and been driven from their home by some low-life scum who have an issue with other people's private lives!
Now, I can accept that living in a small rural community can limit the gene pool somewhat, but these actions do say a helluva lot about the mental state of Mangawhai's neighbourhood vandal/arsonist.
Hark: did I hear Dueling Banjos? Ah no, my mistake - it was just someone trying to pass a broomstick...

Always some inbred idiot making life harder for someone else. Very rare a local willing to stand up and speak out against it. You do yourself proud.
