What a shame Maori cannot sort out their own. Where are the advertising campaign 'by Maori, for Maori' advocating for peace, personal responsibility, and respect for yourself, the law, and others? Why not take a fraction of the profits from the $70 Billion Maori economy and pour that money into building better Maori males, rather than new suits & undies for Tuku Morgan and other elite troughers. What a shame Maori culture seems to emphasise being 'staunch' and 'hard' and getting Moko's and doing the Haka of the cannibal and slaver Te Rauparaha rather than doing things that will build genuine mana and self-reliance and values. Time for Maori to get their act together and renounce violence, renounce beating up the missus and the kids, renounce the Mongrel Mob and the Black Power, remounce aiming to be the 'Sergeant at Arms' in some evil gang. If you want to be a Sergeant, join the Army, join the Police.
Time to rename our prisons and start disempowering them as something 'hard' and somewhere where tough guys go. Paremoremo becomes 'Fluffy Bunny Farm'. We will see if gangsters still want to go there when all the power goes out of the name.
Some slogans for a 'by Maori, for Maori' advertising campaign paid for by Iwi, not the state. Time for Maori to step up and start paying their own way.
'THERE IS NO MANA IN THE GANGS'
'THERE IS NO MANA IN CRIME'
'THERE IS NO MANA IN MURDER'
'THERE IS NO MANA IN THEFT'
'THERE IS NO MANA IN BEATING YOUR WIFE AND KIDS'
'THERE IS MANA IN EDUCATION'
'THERE IS MANA IN MAHI'
Shock treatment is needed. Maori must be absolutely disgusted when then see their crime statistics and their contribution to the prison population. Why on earth don't they do something about it?!
