Issue 

Last year Resistance led the high school walkouts against racism. Here is what our opponents said about the rallies:

Shaun Nelson (Queensland One Nation MP): 聯Putting children into the line of fire ... is child abuse ... these communists should have to answer for their actions聰.

Bill Feldman (Queensland One Nation leader): The Resistance walkout is 聯a very dangerous practice. I think it should be stamped out.聰

Piers Akerman (columnist Daily Telegraph): 聯The thoroughly repugnant and manipulative socialist youth organisation Resistance will again attempt to excite guileless students with another trumped up demonstration against racism聰.

Padraic McGuinness (columnist Sydney Morning Herald): 聯Perhaps this is one of the times when [ASIO] ought to be keeping close tabs on extremists聰.

Pauline Hanson: 聯What protest?聰 when confronted by 3000 high school students outside the Queensland parliament.
