  • the cultureless white man and his greed before need opressive way of being has systematically destroyed all indigenous cultures of the world then slowly kill there culture always to be looked upon like savages.

  • Hone is a nutter.

  • fuck that bitch in the interview

  • There were no inhabitants in main land New Zealand and that is a scientific fact. There is a second group of indigenous New Zealanders called the Moriori who live in the Chathams far from the mainland who are also Polynesian. There was a massacre of them in the nineteenth century but both Maori (one tribe specifically) and Pakeha are to blame for that and Moriori survive and are reasserting their culture.  And every best wish to them.

  • "Proud people"? I don't think so. Criminals, dole bludgers and kid bashers. They're certainly not indigenous and slaughtered the original inhabitants.

  • THE reporter is she maori? she looks it, n she's really good and can pronounce maori words really well.

  • O yea - the iti carrot slapper. Isn't he strutting through the sleepy (now not so) town of Whakatane causing all grief whilst attending the "DOLE" shop? His head wouldn't look bad "smoked."

  • Dear o dear! The harawira man has proved once again that he keeps his one brain cell warm by sitting on it !

  • Don't wake a sleeping giant.............Look what happened to Japan!

  • ,,,by the same token, no maori tribe has been able to live in harmony with another maori tribe. As long as the "Pakeha" funds such endeavours, indigenous persona will travel the world to retrieve traded smoked heads, severed & cured by rapacious tribes such as tuhoe.(non participitants of any treaty as "proudly" trumpeted,) Solution: tuhoe have their own "turf." However if anyone tresspasses from either side- a live Weta will be consumed by the tresspasser- fair enough?

  • Look up Dr Abdul Mohamed. not one person on the face of this planet since back from time began, no-one, has been able to live peacefully with the white man. mr ron mark, you uncle tom pussy sell-out. you need to be shot with shit. traitor. long live the black man for we are the originals amongst god people.

  • lmao

  • iwi and authroitive names are only delusions for maori to think they hve some control or authority but its bullshit, maori have no special priviledges they still answerable to a foreign system in place to benefit foreign companies clear as day and if maori wanna argue that and r too blind to see wats really going on then mayb they need anutha rude awakening

  • jon white 02:00 yeah its not targeting any iwi the bastards are targeting MAORI as a whole, in the eyes of the crown we are individuals we were once iwi but not since the systems been in place, we've been segregated ever since the education system wen children were forced away from their mothers and marae to attend institutions come maori WAKE UP MARANGA sum1 bang the kai BELL watch out for the maori wahine toa they getting geared fallas they just about had enuf of male domineering #@!% ups!!!!

  • pisses me off that maori children continue to go hungry and hopelessly endure hardship while small minded maori fight ova a tiny piece of land too !%#*'n greedy to do it collectively, thats wen maori are their own worst enemy its all in their head and it sucks that the weakest are the ones who sign (sell) off the mana needed for our children for peanuts, no wonder the govt are laughing and idiot ron feels confident to spit on his own, he's in for a %#@!'n surprise, whatch out for the womentoa

  • Maori children are only going hungry and struggling because their whanau arent supportive enough...it has nothing to do with iwi settlments. A tiny peice of land isnt just a tiny peice of land, its someones whenua. It deserves to be fought for as the spiritual base of a people.

    I do agree with you however that iwi authorities are only delusions - behind every brown enterprise is the white puppet master.

  • As it is all ova the world with governed countries, it is the people who put these guys in their positions, if the people were one that would freak the government and this losing their power, thats how you rid foreign beauracracy and there's plenty here in Aotearoa

  • If it came to it, maori would stand for everyone of aotearoa, not for some foreign religion.

  • hei fat face ur face has no diffrent with an arshole they just look the same no differents

  • Dam Ron Mark... you dissapoint me, e hoa...

  • There is a Great American Song i forget de name of the singer !! but the title  is GOD DAMMED THE WHITE MEN... you see there is nothing more true than that ...they came to your country take your land rob you from your rights . and they doing this in the name of GOD

  • get over it arsehole

  • id happily throw ron mark off a cliff

  • Ron mark is just a house nigger! How can maori move forward when we're constantly being reminded of the past! ie Our land taken from us!. Pakeha see maori recieving monetary compensation for the loss of confiscated land and hate us for it, why? we never asked for money! we've always asked for the return of the land! we've only taken the money because we've been told its in our best intrest, i.e. take it or get nothing!

  • None of the settlements amounted to more than 5 percent of the what the claims were actualy worth, do you think thats fair Pakeha? do you?

  • the same here in the usa, brother. our people helped the white settlers set up their british colonial extensions. many treaties were signed. for a few years respect between two cultures was good. the same respect was shared a few years after your people signed your treaty with the same settler race. like us, they look after their land and people; we ours.

    then their numbers increased. the rest is a history of indigenous blood worldwide.

    and still they hate us for their genocide crimes.

  • peace be with you native american brother! May grandfather be with you all in your struggle, Your story is the same told by all indigenous cultures. ..Here's a thought for the white man, french prophet nostradamus predicted this centuary the crusades between the muslims and the christians would be reignited, thats already happened! considering how the indigenous peoples been treated by the white man over the last few hundred years, which side do you think we'd fight on?

  • Well better the devil we know than the devil we dont aye. If it came to it, Maori wouldnt surrender to a foreign power out of spite of injustice by the Crown, we'd unite with the white population and go to war against Islam.

  • 500 years ago french prohet nostradamus predicted in this centuary the crusades between the muslims and christians would be reignited. you only have to look at events of the last 6 years to see that has already happened! considering how indigenous cultures have been treated by the white man I'd rather fight for the muslims! they'd treat us better!

  • Yes i know all about the prophecies & revelation, but realistically what you're saying is not going to happen with Maori. And i doubt very much that our culture would survive in Islam - it is afterall a fiercely monotheistic religion. Christianity is also fiercely embedded in Maori culture & Maori people. Our fight also is with the Crown, not the majority of the populace. And if Pakeha are threatened, as we all now have Pakeha whanau, that would mean we are all threatened. That will never happen

  • Even better news! Maori Party hold the balance of power! how? Maori seats + MPP. fantastic mix. Like hone said, we are not the last cab on the taxi rank but in fact, the Limo waiting to negotiate.

    I was going to vote National, but in light of recent RACIST comments made by Locke National's (immigration minister). I will be voting MAORI PARTY!! woop woop

  • Good on you! Welcome to the retention of our future! Dont bother about voting National, they'll get in regardless, based on the majority vote. Its better to keep our interests secure and put our leaders in a position to hold the 2 main Party's accountable. Remember, only clever Maori vote Maori Party. All the dumb ones vote for our oppressors!

  • Thats a bit harsh, perhaps they are ill informed or they have a strategic plan, either way they aint dumb.

  • The truth is harsh PN. There is nothing strategic in supporting our oppressors, especially when our leaders need us. Many are misinformed its true - thats why we must be harsh in our honesty. Hone is right - you may think splitting votes is strategic, but up north, we just call that plain dumb. And it is.

  • Yep Maori Party all the way!! to many worng doings against a minority group like Maori.

    If Maori Labour and National MPS cant do their job effectivly on core Maori issues then i support the Maori Party this time round. they deserve a chance for getting this far!!

    Maori ora

  • Very good macfries - spread the word. There are plenty of our dumb people who need a wake up call.

  • Well to aswewr georgetwats question.

    Maori are trying their very best to take care of their own issues within their own communities. Europeans might as well re-name Parliament 'europeans decendants party' because as it stands kiwi/europeans/pakeha or what ever you may want to call it, have a far larger say over Maori affairs...it is not worth asking why that is, so instead Maori will do what needs to be done to correct this issue. Maori seats.

  • Your problem is geroge that you focus entirely on the negative and refuse to acknowledge the positive. Balance yourself.

  • Dont use the deaths of our babies as ammunition for your pathetic arguments.

  • Thats the whole point george - they're just 'facts' for you to throw at people and hope they stick. Its not a very nice way at all to use the horrific death of children. You just use them for your own self-gratification.

  • Whatever george. They're not just 'facts' or 'statistics' you know - they were babies. You throw their names at people just to win gratification for yourself. You use their murders just to win arguments. Im not into that type of game, i think its sick actually.

  • Im not trying to fight with you george - just keeping you honest i spose. Just be careful that when you use these instances not to use them to gratify yourself against us as if we ignore these things when in reality we feel the hurt the most. I know what you're getting at now, just didnt seem like that to me at the time.

  • Maori do need to be with Maori - just not the evil ones.

  • The Nelson twins, Timothy Mavern, Estelle Wilson. Just a couple of names for you to, happened around the same time, did you ever hear of them?

  • Yep, ever wonder why? As the Kahui twins and Nia were put on the first two pages of the newspapers, these went unnoticed on the 4th and 5th pages. Those i mentioned were murdered also by their parents who were Pākeha. Moana Jackson mentions it at his confrences, purely to highlight the fact that the media has influence over these issues. I want to know why New Zealand doesnt know about these, but no plenty about the Māori ones?

  • oh and off the subject, i see you were paragliding in Bali, was there in november, pretty nice place huh.

  • Stayed in Kuta beach, tried to have a surf but nah couldnt get up lol. Went to the otherside of the island for a look, except they closed the beaches off because there was a UN confrence at one of the hotels there or something! Was in Bali only for 8 days though, spent a month in Thailand. Also that dryer comment, i totaly agree, its sickening!! Actually theres a song on youtube sung by Maori called "He Waiata tangi" about Nia. Child abuse is wrong, and alot of Maori acknowledge this.

  • Its just those few that for some reason hit their kids and kill them, and now we are all childabusers. I just want you to know that my parents never hit me once. Neither has my dad hit my mother.

  • Oh so you've read the Maori Party constitution and are familiar with their policies are you? I look after me, I dont need your baldhead government for anything.

  • Chamorro, Hawaiians and others in the pacific support our Maori brothers and sisters in New Zealand. Indigenous rights!

  • Do they? I thought they mainly vote Labour.

  • kia ora bro!

  • NEW BOOK QUESTIONS THE TUHOE RAIDS

    The book, TERROR IN OUR MIDSTS, edited by Danny Keenan of Victoria

    University, contains contributions from academics, historians and

    activists.

    Keenan said the book arose from discussions at the uni's Maori studies depart of analyses of the police action.

    While contributions couldn't comment directly on the suppressed evidence of the police raids, they put the incident into historic, social, political and international context. Check it out, guys.

  • UPDATE FROM THE HIGH COURT: BAIL SUPPRESSION!

    Application bail variation to allow for association between Valerie Morse & Emily Bailey defences was suppressed. High Court judge said he did not have jurisdiction to rule in the case! He sent them back to the Auckland District Court with a strongly worded instruction that the bail should be allowed. Extraordinary given that the original bail condition was imposed by the High Court, and yet absurd since it says it doesn't have jurisdiction!

  • UPDATE FROM THE HIGH COURT: SEARCH WARRENTS DISCLOSED!

    22 Aug, Auckland High Court, a great victory for the accused. Search warrants (which had been supressed from the defence) will be disclosed. This will allow defendants to see the original applications for interception warrants under the Terrorism Suppression Act. This is a substantial victory for defence. Although some details will continue to be supressed, this disclosure will add significantly to the understanding of the police case.

  • Terrorism Suppression Act - bullshit! more like Stand-Up-For-Your-Rights Suppression Act.

    It's happening all over the world, but moreso in colonial oppressive states, like the CANZUZ empire: Canada, Australia, New Zealand, & the biggest bastards of all, the U.S.A.

    Keep fighting, all indigenous people!

  • Yes, We Maori are very faithful and proud to Love our Almighty however, we don't catagorise as you do, If you Love GOD then we LOVE you, Loving GOD was the sales pitch your ancestors used to get a foot in our door then came force tactics by killing our women and children with muskets all for Land the tactic is very common around the world in indigenius countries,

  • This story has definately got a back bone, why else would you be sooo upset! You obviously are confused and hateful toward Maori (must of got a good hiding from a Maori who couldnt stand your humbug, yeah, Im pretty sure You got a hiding and now You're all offended to see your own people exposing to the world how much of a whining, sook ass you are) however, the more hate you feed it the stronger the Maori.Keep it up!

  • If you want a belonging here, on Gods land then you must learn to Love your masters, MAORI, if not, then im sorry to say,you may not have any land to stand on later, but back on a boat to which you came. Im sorry in advance but, thats just how the cookies gonna crumble on you. you knew that ah!!

  • Im not here to argue dear Pakeha, nor am I angry at You for, you have been sadly mislead from birth as was your parents and so on.. If anything, I have pity on you. Poor dude! It must be hard for you knowing, You and your family just dont fit in here and to be Pakeha means: visitors trying very hard to belong. I wouldn't want to shit in buckets and throw them out the window onto streets either, that is what your ancestors did in england wasn't it! then bought your dirty habits and desease here.

  • It's very obvious to spot a dirty little racist Pakeha amoung us, it may not make sense to you Pakeha but, thats alright, your job is to represent as a true racist Pakeha and my job is to expose you and give this story a back bone...Mission accomplished... Bwaahaahaahaa!
