one law for all?
peters labels brash race statements 'evil'new zealand first leader winston peters has described national party leader don brash's questioning of whether maori remained a distinct indigenous people as "evil". speaking today at the national conference of the maori women's welfare league at ngaruawahia, the foreign minister said dr brash had been trying to define maori out of existence by allocating a blood quantum to ethnic belongings. to describe this as evil is not an overreaction," mr peters said. "there are many figures in history that have similarly used blood purity as a political argument only to lead their people into an abyss of violence and destruction."
then, the govt and maori party back peters' attack on brash.........
"legally he wants maori to be non-entities. not enough 'maori blood' by the brash prescription – no legal status as maori," mr peters said in a speech to the national conference of the maori women's welfare league.
the "donsta" is justifying his stand on the foundation of "one law for all." as a person of colour [maori] in nz, i can get on with the "one law for all" concept. statistics say that maori are too well represented in our prison populations. they do however, forget to mention, that, if a person of colour is before the judiciary for the same crime that a white person committs, we know who will go to jail and who will not. so yeah don. "one law for all" would be good.
