Stop xenophobia
Xenophobia is the fear of that which is perceived to be strange or foreign. This curation collection also includes all the 'isms' in the world; racism, sexism, etc. Including homophobia. When are people going to realise that this behaviour is not right. Please stop it now and be inclusive in your world views. Reduce the hate in the world and stop all forms of violence against people.

You're Entitled To Your Opinion, Unless It's Not Based On Fact | Stop xenophobia | Scoop.it
I spent some time reading the policies set out by the One Nation party on their website and what struck me most about them was not so much the extent of the xenophobia and bigotry being peddled, but rather the absence of any evidence or facts. Apart from the inherent laziness of such an approach to policy development, this is also a dangerous way to use one's voice.
