I had a friend who is very, very staunch in her pro maori stance. She has done great things by getting on with facilitating change.
Years ago, she was angry at a magazine cover of the late Billy T James and Peter Rowley. Rowley was sitting on a chair with Billy T leaning on him. She hit the roof, saying the picture screamed a subliminal message that Maori need to lean on Pakeha to be successful. She was serious.
The rest of us had tears in our eyes from laughing. |

| She has just played a major role in developing the first immersion Maori Language senior school in the country, by following examples of other leaders and by using the system to her advantage. She realised shouting at the wind was futile and the way to enforce change is to plant the seed and nurture it. |

| we need to promote maori culture and history in mainstream by de colonizing all, not taking it out of mainstream it creates seperatism |

you're right about that. I understand.
In education now, students are learning about the Treaty of Waitangi at primary school. Including the original intention as a peaceful document, and, how later governments abused the english version to confiscate...let's call it what it is...steal maori land. These children coming through now have the answers to their parents questions, which makes for one informed generation. as it continues, the next generation will receive the same info. Over time, that ignorance will hopefully disappear.
I know it's frustrating, but unfortunately it IS going to take that length of time. |

fialemaa the "treaty" means f.all.
It has several versions and in english & maori. Any lawyer brave enough can find holes wide enough to drive a bus through.
It was written to give maori equality but is now a tool to stoke up the out-of-control gravy train.
maori stole from each other so don't come with that sh.yte about land being stolen by the english.
I hope we become a republic and that 'treaty' can be assigned to the rubbish bin where it belongs.because i disagree with you, don't forget to call me a redneck even though it is you that gets special racial advantages, not me.
Scr.ap the treaty !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

suffering_taxpayer
dude,
Why would I call you a redneck? what would that achieve? You are entitled to your view.
have you researched the treaty history and it's consequences?
Please elaborate on the special racial advantages I have received. |

| Proud- all you know is how to open gates and start fires,you have no control and or balance.Just because most people dont agree with your views you label them as bigots ,you belong to a small club of self Opinionated, Delusional sorry minds. Thankfully you are a minority and good people will always be superior to you.(Good people come in all colours and creed). |

I am a person who has worked in the area of violation towards women, babies, and children and youth for thirty long years, and am so disgusted at what I have read on this board, and there have been several that I have read in this forum, this one has too be the most vile, abhorrent and bigotted one too date.
The numbers of abused victims of any kind, drugs incest domestic violence and alcohol and youth at risk, pregnant teenagers, you name it I have seen it and worked with it for many years. Very heartbreaking for all of this country and the victims whose lives are never the same. Sad, Sad.
Proudcannabil, are you a man or are you a mouse, you have no mana or integrity at all, there is a tone of women hatred in your words, a sign of not being a well person because you dont like the truth when it hits your face. You chase people, women in this type of area.Why? this thing facing maori and all that suffer is awful and the same people who do the work you abuse, who is the bigot? Who is the abuser? You are no man that I would want to know not here or in life!
You need to see inside your soul, your wairua is black!
It is the truth!! A hater of others who see through you.
A hater of pakeha and maori who do not think like you or agree with you. You are the true bigot and you are a maori of a mixed culture. you do not like women full stop. You are filth and a disgrace for the teenage maori men you say you are helping, resign you are disgusting, and will not be helping them.
is the person called adamvictoria your son or daughter, who needs someone like this too help you and he thinks he is a clever white man and thinks he can intimidate with his words. Maori people dont your kind and think you are helping you stupid person. If you are ashamed, that is your own fault pakeha. and maori do not need your sympathy or empathy, you are filth as well, and have no brains.
The kahui twins, delcilia witika, the lady who got beaten and murdered by a gang member... |

in the capital, and many more like this, and you attack two women in a cyber room, which is a free service.
an utter disgrace the pair of you.
How insulting too all women in this country, all good men women and children. I bow my head in shame, I really do after reading this filth and this country needs equal justice and freedom for all and the government needs to see that it has failed, and parents of the mistakes that are cared for need to be responsible.
The true good people, the maori and those who are not have heart.
You two racist bigots need too get a life and maybe find a brain. |
