Two separate accounts of pure TNB.
A Maori who racially attacked two Whites for no reason other than being there is being supported by a stupid, dumb, ignorant White. The two Whites were working with Maori, for Maori but apparently that wasn't enough.
So here you have it, just like the Hurricane Latrina gimme-handout 'Refugees', the fact you're White is more important than the fact you're helping them.
Throw in some purely racial generalisations and PC crap about 'sensi
tivity', and here you have it - a politically correct Hate Crime.

Former Ngai Tahu whakapapa unit boss Terry Ryan, the man exposed as a fake Maori, has thrown his wei
ght behind a Ngai Tahu employee imprisoned for a racially-motivated assault.
Court documents obtained by the Sunday Star-Times reveal Ryan wrote a letter of support for Wade Anthony Osborn, a whakapapa unit historian who broke a Pakeha work colleague's jaw.
The Christchurch District Court would not release the letter.
Observers say the case reveals wider tensions over the appropriateness of Pakeha working for Maori organisations.
"There's always a question in the Maori mind, couldn't you find a Maori person to do this?" said Emeritus Professor James Ritchie, a Pakeha who was invited to be an adviser to the Tainui Trust Board i
n th
e early 1990s. "Such matters have to be approached with the utmost sensitivity."
Osborn, 26, was jailed for two years in August for bashing his Pakeha work colleague after the iwi's Christmas party. Court records reveal the attack was triggered by Osborn's hostility toward Ngai Tahu hiring Pakeha.
The colleague, who has name suppression, was ass
aulted when he tried to protect a female fellow employee, also Pakeha, from a drunk Osborn.
AdvertisementAdvertisementThe victim stepped between the woman and Osborn, who was challenging her right to work for Ngai Tahu, and was head-butted. Later Osborn punched him, breaking his jaw in two places. The man said in evidence given to the court Osborn told him Pakeha employed at Ngai Tahu saw themselves as saviours and should not be working for the iwi. When Osborn chased him after smashing his jaw "he seemed to want vengeance for all Pakeha wrongdoings".
Osborn, who is now on home detention, was not the f
irst col
league to raise the role of Pakeha with the victim, who had already had two or three "pretty controversial" conversations with other Ngai Tahu employees about the issue.
"It's what Don Brash would call a race-based organisation, I guess, and so it's an issue," he said in evidence given to the court.
Former Labour MP and chief executive of West Auckland's Waipareira Trust John T
amihere said iwi authorities were under pressure to employ their own, yet most Maori had Pakeha blood.
"A lot of them are born-again hories. They've stumbled on their whakapapa and language."
Christchurch District Court Judge David Holderness noted Osborn was part Pakeha.
Star-Times' investigations revealed in April that Ryan, who wrote in support of Osborn before his sentencing, was registered as a member of Ngai Tahu, voted as a Ngai Tahu beneficiary in trust board elections, and was enrolled on the Maori electoral roll. Yet he is 100
% Pakeha. <b
r>
Ryan, 62, had been on sick leave recovering from a stroke he suffered in April but is back working for Ngai Tahu. He could not be reached for comment.
Ngai Tahu boss Tahu Potiki said his letter of support was not on behalf of Ngai Tahu.
Osborn was a talented but troubled employee, and his assault had shocked colleagues "because it was so much the antithesis of the culture we have here".
While some Ngai Tahu wanted their organisa
tion staffed by iwi members, especially in senior roles, Te Runanga o Ngai Tahu had always hired the best person for the job, including former chief executive Sid Ashton, a Pakeha.
Tamihere said it was nonsense to employ someone "with big lips and a big nose who is my relation" over the person with the best skills for the job, but Professor Ritchie said the appropriateness of hiring Pakeha , would always been a issue especially as Pakeha could be intrusive and inappropriately missionary-like. He would always leav
e a job in a Mao
ri organisation if a Maori could do it.

And in this episode, a Refugee who was allowed into our country immediately began serial rapes. Upon his second conviction he suddenly decides the judge is "racially biased"
Not a word for the victims, his complete lack of contribution to society, nothing.
If this waste of space thinks he's got it hard here, he should try acting like that in his own sh*thole. His pleas for sensitivity won't get a foothold there,
they might get him an extra few kicks in his face though. He'd be up in front of an inpromptu AK-47 firing squad with the victims relatives holding the guns.

Iraqi refugee accuses judge in rape trial of racial bias
10 October 2005
An Iraqi refugee has accused the judge at his trial for the brutal rape of a 20-year-old s
tudent in a Porirua
hostel last year of "racial bias".
Akeel Hassan Abbas Al Baiiaty, 35, a former Iraqi soldier, was sentenced in March to preventive detention with a minimum non-parole jail term of seven years for the abduction, rape and assault of the woman in January 2004.
After he was convicted in November, it was revealed he was a serial rapist who had preyed on New Zealand women since he entered the country as a quota refugee from Iraqi in 1994.
In 1997 he attacked three Auckland prostitutes and was jailed for nine years.
In the C
ourt of Appeal in Wellington today before justices Glazebrook, Young and Doogue, Al Baiiaty's lawyer, Bryan Yeoman, said he had been instructed to appeal the conviction on the grounds the trial judge, John Walker, had been "biased" against him.
In a written submission, Mr Yeoman said Al Baiiaty's contention was that the judge had made several "prejudicial remarks" in summing up the case to the
jury, particularly the
way in which he quoted the complainant, which gave the impression he regarded her evidence as "compelling and credible".
"The appellant comes from a particular background that makes it difficult for him to accept that the oral evidence of a woman could be the basis for a conviction," Mr Yeoman told the court.
AdvertisementAdvertisementAl Baiiaty claimed the judge was biased against him because he was an Iraqi citizen.
He also appealed the sentence on the grounds it was "manifestly excessive".
The sentencing judge, Justice Warwick Gendall, had placed undue emphasis on
the appellant's past convictions and was also biased against him.
Furthermore, in the absence of a final warning, the sentence of preventive detention was not appropriate.
However, Crown lawyer Matthew Downs said the judge's summing-up was "clear, concise, free from error and essentially textbook in nature".
An expli
cit final warning was not r
equired before preventive detention could be imposed, especially with such serious offences, he said.
The rape was violent and premeditated, and Al Baiiaty was assessed as presenting "a high risk of re-offending".
While Al Baiiaty had lived in New Zealand for 11 years, he had only spent three years and two months of that period out of prison, and in that time, he had raped three women, Mr Downs noted.
"Preventive detention is the only appropriate sentencing response.
"The appellant is in the relatively small category of offenders who can properly be described as sexual predators."
Al Baiiaty was granted New Zealand citizenship in
1997. He committed his first rapes in between signing his application and the citizenship ceremony.
His citizenship was revoked in October 2004, and it is expected he will be deported once he serves his time.
The court reserved its judgment.
