Congratulations to the editor of this special newspaper, The Weekend Sun. I raise this issue because of the excellent opinion piece on page 2 of the August 10 issue.

For instance, it showed how protesters against free speech are using their free speech to try and stop our right to free speech! And the likening of the silent majority of NZ to a sleeping bear which the bullies and troublemakers are poking with a stick.

The prediction that we, ‘the sleeping bear' will turn on our tormentors. So very true if you understand history.

As Winston Churchill said, after years of warning the British, now you will have to fight and because you have allowed the enemy to get so strong, you may very well lose!
