And besides Folau pays his tax not like a person that comes with a boat ?♀️ and pays for nothing
The left never do any protest because children die with drugs or child sex slaves or people dying with alcohol ,Folau should win back his rights and get compensation because he has the right for his religion and belief ,Folau didn’t cut any heads or raped any girls but said the truth
The chatter about cashless society and social media intrusion makes this worrisome.
A sick Country !!!
Australia should follow USA or Canada. I am ok with people joking about my race coz most of my life basically spent living in The USA. People can joke around about race without being afraid of the persecution. Dont fear the power Freedom Of speech can give.
Derr go fund me idiots, Folau did what is right and should get his job back according to legislation
Start an Australia fund me, Kick go fund me out.
The leftist attack on the Bible system of morality. This is bigger than Israel. Bigger than most can imagine. However, it is anticipated in scripture.
I said this before, but I’ll say it again; Folau, in the capacity of his employment and as per his contract, was effectively a representative of the Australian Rugby Union brand, and his comments, as they were quite controversial, may have caused backlash for the brand and may have persuaded people to boycott ARU, thus damaging the reputation and bottom line for the brand. The Australian Rugby Union (which is a private entity, and not a government entity or public utility) chose to protect its image and its revenue by terminating Folau from employment based on the terms of his contract. Folau chose to be a representative of the Rugby Union brand, and therefore had the responsibility to toe the line in regards to the brand’s values. If he didn’t agree with the terms he shouldn’t have signed the contract accepted the millions of dollars in salary he was paid for representing the brand. I have absolutely no sympathy for Folau, and in my opinion it was in incredibly poor taste for one of the highest paid Rugby Union players in Australia to petition for donations from the public. He is a multi-millionaire with a professional athlete wife, he can pay for his own legal costs out of his own goddam pocket. The ARU doesn’t owe him a cent, and they should countersue him for lost revenue and for the damage he has done to the brand with his stunt.
this just shows the views of the anti-christian faith activists, if he was a Muslim the leftist wankas would not have said a damned thing due to their Islamophobia.
The powers that be and 99% of the media is satanic.
You miss the whole point Peta, a Christian does not have freedom of speech:
* you shall not take the Lords name in vain
* shall not bear false witness (lie)
Freedom of speech is not a right. Bring back the christian Blasphemy laws and forget the silly notion of free speech. Additionally Australia is not a democracy but a constitutional monarchy.
The lies never stop, you arent in Parliament any more Peta, you can start to tell the truth.
I can honestly say I don't like religious or any ideology like islam for its base on HATE, even of itself. There is no love or compassion within islam. The christian belief even has compassion and love towards others not hate but I still think religion is based on fear for the control of others, because everything you do wrong is a sin. Now sin is a human word, not GOD's. and I don't believe JC died for humanity sins, nobody can die for you. When people wake up to the TRUTH, then you know you are, your own creator. FREE SPEECH IS YOUR RIGHT …. agree or disagree ….you have a choice to believe in what you want …. that's FREEDOM ….
Bias news, wonder why ? , no credibility and certainly conflicts of interests.
For not even being enshrined in any of your constitutions… you commonwealthers sure do talk about free speech a lot. I guess it's so fundamental, that you guys can't even be bothered to write it down, lol.
Free speech and freedom of religion is good. Australian constitution was built on Christian teachings anyways. Let Folau practice his beliefs as a devout Christian and others should also be allowed to practice their religious beliefs or being atheists. To each its own! Freedom for all!
Why are comments not allow on some social media/news about Israel Folau? Are they afraid of the truth? Is this all about control?
The right to free speech doesn’t give you the right to spread hate towards a group of people who are already marginalised in society. This flys in the face of the very concept of free speech and an egalitarian society. You can’t discriminate against a group of people who hold a dominant place in society. Its hilarious when Christian’s try and become the victim in all this. It’s like when white people whinge about affirmative action.
What he posted is hate speech
The Left will destroy the West, it becomes more and more apparent each and every day.
I didn't know Australia was a disgrace,
I belive AUSTRALIANS ARE ALL A BUNCH OF RACIST CUNTS THATS MY FREEDOM OF SPEECH SAID!!
There are many Jobs, that require a Contract, that limits what you say in the public domain…
Israel Falau was a repeat offender ; he was warned "but" continued to discriminate publicly.
This is not so much about "free speech" , more about his "context of disrespect for others".
Worse under the veil of "a religion",, much worse, when "questionable funding" is involved…
In isolation, I would have supported Falau "but in context" – overall , he is as guilty as sin.
Australia's has no free speech protections. One day they will figure this out, maybe.
is it true your country refused white refugees from south africa but accept convicted murderers from some black country?
If you play professional sport, you have to support your sport, your club, your team and their sponsors.
Folau was sacked because he breached the rugby code of conduct. That's just the way the world works. Everyone who works for an organisation is bound by their code of conduct. If you don't like it get another job.
And the reason other footballers have got away with much worse is because they didn't get a major sponsor offside. Its all about the dollars and common sense.
According to the Australian statistics around 88.00% of Australians identify themselves as Christians so how come a hand full of poofs have so much say and the Christians have no say??? It because the gay brigade have power in the Courts with gay Judges, Power in Government with Gay members and power in almost every facet of our ruling class they have made sure that their minority will never again suffer poofter bashings and that has taken about 30-40 years to achieve, and at the same time they have a very strong membership in the Green and Labour party. So if your a Christian bad luck for you because these perverts are increasing in numbers and our schools now preach gay is good and gay is right and gay marriage is just dandy and young school kids that transgenders and gay people is a normal way of life and heaven forbid they say anything to the contrary in fear of being outcast by the teachers getting who are all leftist and some even gay. A terrible future for any Christian
ONE of Australia's most senior Anglican leaders says Israel Folau's right to express his faith is being denied, claiming the former Wallaby star's treatment "smacks of a new and ugly Australia".
Archbishop of Sydney Dr Glenn Davies says Folau's right to express his faith and act according to his conscience is of "fundamental importance in any democracy"."It is of great concern to many Australians that this right is being denied and vilified," Archbishop Davies said in a statement on Tuesday.
Agree this is the most important case re free speech we have to fight in Australia. I don’t share Folaus views either however I fully support him
and his right to post them free of fear or favour. Employers have become way too powerful sacking people for their conduct outside of work is abhorrent and I hope both the Folaus sue both their employers into bankruptcy. The hide of ANZ to act as moral arbiters we all remember the banking royal commission. This all beggars belief these institutions have become judge jury and executioner and moral dictators I’m horrified and furious that these corporate thugs can bludgeon employees like this. Boycott these corporate thugs this is corporate
big brother on steroids and people are fed up with this nanny state. Stay out of our personal lives and affairs unless it’s criminal end of conversation.
Kantian ethics are the toughest but nothing can beat the Misnah in the Talmud where axiological properties are debated. Gosh did they debate but it was debated in a respectful and inclusive manner. Isreal needs to read the Talmud and so-called Christians need to read this book to get a gist of what 'debate' means before Israel or so-called Christians starts on one. Judaism came before Christianity and it is the root Christians need to be aware and return to.
IF speaks for nobody …should get a jail sentence…so should any "Christian" fundamentalist.
Such people like Israel Follou should not deserve to be in this world.
World need Love NOT HATE and Declaring of Judgement
if you cannot say what's in the bible and in your heart then who are you
He should of pissed in his mouth that is except able to these freaks! Don't worry Folau we have more money to donate to you when ever you need it!
Take practical steps; boycott GoFundMe and Qantas.
We have to define Hell first. Furthermore he mentioned that fornicators, drunks and other sinners too, don't see any of them coming out and having a cry.
All Lbgt community should be put on there own island where they can moleste each other
The PC movement are the biggest hypocrites , they talk about inclusivity but discrminate against Folau …respecting only views similar to your own is not respect ,, thats mob mentality . True respect is accepting a differing view … different to agreeing with it .
Very Well Said …
