this is not how maori behave!

go and get twins' killers, mp's demand: "the police were coming under pressure from politicians today to make arrests in the kahui twins case. the maori affairs minister joined maori party co-leader dr pita sharples and new zealand first in demanding action. three-month-old..."
it is disturbing to see references to "once were warriors" in our media, who seem to be doing their best to incite some sort of racial tension in nz. i have yet to see a warrior code that endorses the abuse of children or anyone who is weaker for whatever reason. it is insulting of our media to suggest that this is a maori problem. when williams killed coral burroughs, [maori] didn't suggest that it was a white problem. child abuse is a community problem, as is the abuse of anyone too weak to defend themselves. women, children, elderly, men, they are all being abused in some manner.

Sad story to hear. I think, as in the US, infants and children are still thought of as property. In Arizona I wonder how many child drownings are really accidents. You can still allow your children to drown in a pool and get away scott free.
