Summary: Door-knocking After Dark (Press, 13 April 1985)
A letter published in response to the Salvation Army's actions in relation to the Homosexual Law Reform Bill criticises the organisation for encouraging petitioners to gather signatures after dark. The writer, K. M. Brodrick, expresses discomfort over receiving visitors in the evening who are not identifiable. This experience, shared by others in the community, raises concerns about safety, particularly for the elderly and individuals living alone. Brodrick, who refers to the Salvation Army as typically a caring presence, finds this behaviour particularly inconsiderate. The letter is dated 11 April 1985 and highlights community tensions surrounding the bill.
