I am so, so sick of all this frantic grabbing at every God-given asset as their own.
I whole heartedly agree with your article Weekend Sun Friday 14 September.
What annoys me more than anything is that theoretically the Maori are only 14% of our population but they are so organized to create an impact, that we dumb Pakeha just sit back and watch!
The Maori, as you have said have had the same opportunities as us all and there are some very respected and educated people out there that have done well for themselves.
Even our verbally impaired Hone Harawira. I really believe it is about time that we ‘average' Kiwi's get off our butts and follow the lead of the Maori and march or shut down the country for a day to say ‘Enough'! before the country is bankrupted and the average Kiwi becomes a tenant in their own country.
I am very proud to show the art and culture of our Maori because as a Kiwi we really don't have our own but am ashamed of their greed and arrogance.
