I was horrified to see a brown man with his hands handcuffed behind his back, being pulled along by a white man, holding a lit cigarette jammed into the brown man's mouth.
SUCK, SUCK, SUCK. "I can't breathe." SUCK SUCK SUCK. "You are genociding me. Hold it closer." SUCK, SUCK, SUCK. Then, horrors, the white man's hand went into the BROWN man's pocket and pulled out some money, and said, "How do you like them apples for a change??"
Just thinking out loud...
Every single parent ever has to make a choice when confronted with a screaming, irrational child. One who is utterly devastated by the outrageous arbitrary unfairness being inflicted on them (in their minds) by their parents. Letting the child win is bad for the family and very often disastrous in the long term for the child.
Twenty years ago that would have been a statement of the obvious. Today it will get me branded as paternalistic and patronizing. Probably a criminal.
Sadly, my generation has at best stood by and watched this tragedy unfold and at worst has actively helped to advance it. And as us boomers die off we will leave it to the following generations to confront the…

I am sickened by this Te Pati Maori attitude. I expected the Waitangi Tribunal would sort the grievances and we could go forward as one people. The reverse has happened. Colonial guilt has resulted in Maori getting far more than they deserve. But that is not good enought for them. They want more. Their insatiable appetite for money and power will continue. It is time for all New Zealanders to draw a line in the sand and say 'no more'. Unless we do so, these people will destroy our country.
We are seeing a direct result of the Ardern crazy, divisive regime - get used to the antics of the racists, they are showing what they really stand for and that is apartheid.
Luxon thinks by telling them that he is learning more Te Reo that that will calm the waters, he must be joking. He has alot to learn and he had better learn fast!!
Thank god that Winstone and David are there, otherwise he would crumble at the first turn.
I emailed Luxon this morning and told him he looked weak when he said yesterday that it was, and I quote, Unfair of the Maori to be protesting, don't they know that National wants to look after them......UNFAIR,…
