MAD BUTCHER FURORE
You published an article by Tariana Turia once again re-hashing the Mad Butcher furore but with no mention of the conversation between him and the young woman which began the whole debacle.
It was her statement that she is tangata whenua and therefore can do what she likes that has not been mentioned by Ms Turia — and suddenly we have the Race Relations Commissioner and Michelle Boag wringing hands and gnashing teeth.
Poor Peter Leitch is no doubt the villain in the eyes of Ms Turia but it needs to be taken into account that he was replying to the comment of the young woman in question — he did not suddenly come out with the bald statement “this is a white man’s island”.
Perspective needs to be put in place and Ms Turia has added fuel to the fire by writing a biased account of an incident that should never have reached the news.

Tariana Turia chooses to ignore the real key to the incident which was started by a claim to be tangata whenua. What does that imply?

LAND CLAIMS
"Land claims mandate looming large", here we go again another false land claim made through a false treaty document that has been put in place to make the claims from.
The true treaty document was put together to bring law and order to this country. How can a group of people, who were picked up from different places, at different times, and landed in different areas, who in the 1800s were given the name Maori, who were never a race of people and are able to make claims that they were here first while the descendants of the original occupiers can't make land claims on their land that was taken from them by Tuwharetoa and the crown?
Ngati hotu/ Patupairehe lived in the Ruapehu/ Taumarunui area long before the people called Maori arrived near where the battle of the five forts was held. Also, the Waitaha people also had land taken from them as well.
The Maori started to slaughter these pre-Maori people, a lot of them escaped to safe areas, and this is where Pakeha Ken Mair and his people are claiming the land for themselves, and they will be getting a payout for it.
The Patupaiarehe are trying to claim their land back through the Treaty or Waitangi Tribunal, which has been rejected as they are not Maori. Maori are the only ones that can claim land.
This was put in place by the Labour Government in the 1980s and is still been carried on to this day by our gutless leaders and supporters who are not interested in the truth.
