Allow this singular fact about NZ crime to blow your mind

1. Add poverty and there is most crime gone .But look at the white collar crime on stuff yesterday .One person deliberatly does not pay up to 500k in tax over six years and gets less than a year on home detention ,another claims 46k in covid payments and she get home detention because she has a new kid ,another one scams 20k of covid payments and get locked up for two years .The last one must have been brown or a beneficiary.
   Had the other two been brown they too would be serving time

   • Seeing your ‘victimised brown people’ regularly walking straight through the supermarket checkouts without paying including yesterday Gordon – only your special brown people as well and now not even any attempt to stop them and I imagine purely off the back of their ‘brownness’ providing some kind of immunity .. and for the record the dude yesterday wasn’t dressed like any homeless etc person that I have ever seen.

     • yep that happens because people including whites and asians are living in poverty .I had a person aproach me for money when entering the supermarket a while ago .I did not give him money I went in and bought him food instead .

       • It was Labour that put them into poverty with their unchecked rise of inflation

         • Record number of kiwis leaving because of this rancid National government, just rinse and repeat of the damage they created the last time they were in government.
           Nothing to do with Labour no matter how much you try to fudge it Trevor.

           The record poverty as shown at the top of the 6pm news is testament to this Governments punitive policies. Even the police are getting food parcels, never happened under Labour.
           Mu

2. Once again yesterday I was in the supermarket while a Maori dude just walked right through the checkout without paying – to be honest I get it if they are starving and have no choice but this guy from the way he was dressed etc just looked like someone who has decided that ‘because it is his land etc’ he can get away with it.
   At least this guy wasn’t abusing the staff on his way out I guess but now seeing this happen regularly (and always Maori) and imagine the rest of us (including many who are really struggling and including the vast majority of Maori who still pay) are facing higher prices to compensate for those who refuse to pay.
   Call me racist if you have to – I don’t care anymore.

   • You are racist so are TPM Ot is no better one way or the other .Racism sucks

3. “Findings of the Royal Commission on Abuse in state care suggest that 80-90 percent of gang members were victims of abuse.”

   This has been known for decades. Most of these guys were doomed the day they were born to solo mums living on welfare. They had no real father in their lives. They were neglected as babies and exposed to drugs. They were bashed as children and then in their teens went looking for a male role model and found it on the street in the form of the gangs: The gang was a place they could call home.

   The gang patch ban is no more than band-aid and not even very sticky band-aid. Designed to look tough for the voters but will achieve little. I say this as someone who voted for my local National candidate simply because the alternative in Labour was far worse.

   If we want to fix the core issue, we need to do something about solo motherhood. My personal view is that we should offer ‘at risk’ women cash incentives for long term contraceptive implants or sterilization in a package with adult education. If you have any better ideas, let me know.

   • Don’t blame solo mums blame patriarchal capitalism

     • I’m just referencing the social science research. The same results have been found in the UK and the USA.

       About 80% of black kids in the USA today are born to welfare mums and the rise in solo motherhood coincides with the rise in crime among the same cohort. Unless of course you think it’s just because they’re black?

       In summary, children need Dads as well as Mums and we are reaping the results of misandrist second wave feminism.

     • you are right there are more solo parents than you realise .A lot are doing well owning their own home and giving their kids a great start to life .My daughter is a sole parent and has put herself through dental and medical training in that time 4 years at least spent getting those qualifications .To blame sole parents is just more right wing bull shit .She also owns her own home and only now has a mortgage less than 100k so get fucked ANDREW YOU ARE IGNORANT

     • No, blame the Marxists and their systematic destruction of the family. Marxists reap what they sow.

4. That doesn’t blow my mind. In fact I’m barely surprised.

5. Figures for abuse victims who do not go on to become criminals would be helpful, particularly when New Zealand is a world leader in the abuse, battering, and killing of babies and children, irrelevant of race. Furthermore, there was national outrage and opposition against Sue Bradford’s “ Anti-smacking Bill”, designed to prevent violence against children.

   • Annie you are so right ,but this government has to have people to kick to an inch of their lives as they have so many cans to kick they dont know which one to kick so they resort to the so called bottom feeders

     • Gordon W Luxon should never have said “ bottom-feeders”, but he’s just another ignorant vulgarian whose parents left school in their early teens, and it shows. He’s pretty awful, but I don’t know if his crudeness was an ethnic slur, or he simply being a rich jerk per usual.

6. How many sociapathic CEOs and banksters were also subject to abuse?

7. On a lighter note, the ferry crashed because the crew didn’t know how to turn off the autopilot! Were they having a union meeting ?
