Cardinal Pell will lie in state at St Mary's Cathedral on Wednesday before his funeral mass on Thursday. A separate silent "special ribbon event" in the St Mary's Cathedral forecourt representing victim-survivors of child sexual abuse has also been organised for Wednesday.
is the government on holiday.......
The Police will use the excuse of Public Safety albeit it's a Freedom of Choice and Speech for a peaceful protest. The NSW Police Dictatorship 🚔 restrictions on Freedom. Then there's the gutless NSW Government support
What a pity the same 'safety concerns' weren't there for the victims many years ago. 😢
So, if this is allowed to be blocked then abortion protestors should be allowed to be blocked. Or that weird anti-gay religion that shows up at funerals.
nswpolice seemed to ignore the crimes that people would be protesting about when they happened. Yet now they're criminalising protests against a bloke instrumental in silencing survivors. ChrisMinnsMP Dom_Perrottet do you support this silencing?
Disgrace
So, A defender of rock spiders can get a circle jerk of a eulogy, and the pigs are gonna pig. Yet the victims of paedophiles - who were supposed to be protected - can't tell the truth about it because pigs are gonna pig? I wonder why they protect the guilty..?
As much as I'm against the lgbt alphabet and every number on majority of their bullshit peaceful protesting is a human right and it is a right that no one can remove not the Police, not the courts, no one. They have every right to a peaceful gathering and protest.
Blasphemy.
Great community support from nswpolice Hang your heads in shame, again.
OHHHH, so nswpolice showing again what’s most important here. I don’t recall them petitioning Government to deny priests’ access to children.
There’s something quite sick and twisted about protesting a funeral. I don’t care who the person is or what they have or haven’t done, let the family grieve in peace. Hold whatever event you want to at another time, with all the free speech and noise you want can muster.
Don’t think for a second the cops of the past weren’t doing the same dirty shit those priests were doing under the guise of power. The Catholic Church should not be celebrating this person. pellinhell
why do we need a funeral for Pell here. just bury him
The man is dead! What is the point of protesting a funeral? Let it go.
How about cancelling the big funeral plans instead PellinHell
No surprise here. Yet another attempt to cover up disgusting history
“Safety concerns” nswpolice 🙄. I sure hope the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence are going to be present.
As long as his victims get to spit on his grave is what really matters.
I wonder if NSW police will act like the VicPol nazis.
nswpolice is run by the Catholics and Opus Dei. Why do you think they got away with throwing so many of us off cliffs at Bondi or covering up for those who did? Those cops are still around btw, they’re the ones in charge. nswpol pell georgepell police LGBTQ LGBTQIA
There's a kinda pattern going on.
It's crazy that he's not being protested for covering up pedophelia but for his church's anti LGBT stance.
You think this scum would show respect and decency at a funeral.
Such a lovely bunch they are
All they wanted is to get 'married' 🤪
