Speaking of pulling down colonist statues, monuments etc because of slavery and alleged atrocities – LEST WE FORGET.... > Maori supremacists and their European sycophants parrot the generalisation that 'atrocities' were committed on Maori people during the colonisation period. They were savage and lawless times.
It is left up to readers to decide which culture committed the most atrocities.
1. In 1809 the sailing ship Boyd was attacked by a group of Maori in Whangaroa Harbour killing and eating between 66 and 70 Europeans in retaliation for the captain’s mistreatment of a young local chief, Te Ara, who had sailed from Sydney on the Boyd. European whalers avenged the attack, killing many Māori and sparking intertribal warfare in the region. - Page 8 'Tribes Treaty Money Power' & www.nzhistory.net.nz/…/maori-europ…/the-boyd-incident
2. Two hundred armed Maori killed and ate two members of the shipwrecked crew of the "Harriet" in 1834, - 'Twisting the Treaty' page 123
3. The killing of twelve helpless captives at the Wairau in 1843, - 'Twisting the Treaty' page 126
4. Maori magistrate Rawiri Waiaka, his brother Paora and three family members were murdered in 1854 while marking out land boundaries by fellow Puketapu men - page 130 'Twisting the Treaty'
5. The killing at Te Ahuahu, Taranaki, in 1864 of Captain Lloyd and seven others by Hau Hau. The bodies were found by settlers naked and decapitated, the heads were taken to the prophets and some were smoke-dried - page 46 'Tribes treaty Money power'
6. 1867 - John Brady a military settler was shot and his head beaten in, thought to be either with the butt of the gun or the back of an axe, he was robbed of $30, apparently by 12 ‘apostles’ who it is thought had links to the ‘peaceful’ squatters of Parihaka.

7. The bayonetting of the Lavin children and slaughter of their parents and two other Europeans at Mohaka by Hau Hau in 1869, about 40 Maori were also slaughtered in the same raid - pages 120 & 121 'Twisting the Treaty'.

A DAY TO REMEMBER 95 INNOCENTS SLAUGHTERED IN NZ
The list of non-combatants, those killed by rebels but not in battle, that is detailed below, is not exhaustive. Many victims, particularly pro-government Maori, who made up the majority of those murdered, remain “unidentified” and unacknowledged by authorities to this day.
This is particularly true at Mohaka, 93km north of Napier, when on April 10, 1869, Te Kooti’s fighters murdered around 40 mostly women and children.
And at Matawhero, 11km west of Gisborne, 22 Maori were among the 60 people murdered, also by Te Kooti’s forces.
Many of the entries below may be verified by searching the name of the victim plus papers past. That will take you to the newspaper report of the incident at the time.
Here is the chronological list, compiled by Auckland writer Paul Verdon, of 95 non-combatants killed by rebels during the 19th century. > sites.google.com/site/kiwifrontline/enlightenments/atrocities
