WHY

Do we need separate prisons for Maori?

Is it just Maori or is every other nationality that live in New Zealand going to have their own prisons?

Its a stupid idea. Na te aha ai te pirangi nei? Whose idea was that. A better idea would be to tackle the problem at the source and provide a better life for Maori to start with and promote Taha Maori more

Kotahi tatou. We are one nation. There is no need to segregate criminals, we should lock them up and deprive them of all privileges until they are rehabilitated. As it is they get too many privileges. I know people who have committed crimes deliberately to be sent back to jail because its easier than living on the outside. This is in NZ.

The focus should be on integration, rehabilation and social functioning, not racial segregation.

Yeah, and while we're about it, how about separate prisons for Jews, Americans, Australians, blondes, blokes who show bum cracks, people who work at MacDonalds, Council Building Inspectors, smokers, parents who smack kids, parents who don't smack kids, kids,.........and where will it all end?
It's just a stupid idea by people who are on this issue, superbly demonstrating their stupidity.


Sunayna
Its just Maori...i saw it on the news last night and think its a silly idea. They should just leave it the way it is. Unless there is serious racism fights going on...


Jimmy
If that's the road NZ is heading down then stop the bus I want off.

Its getting to the point where people will have to choose which side there on or where they sit on the bus so to speak.

Seriously who comes up with these idiot ideas just divide the country why don't they.
Pakeha this Maori that....................... I don't care cant we all just get along.


Dangerous
Is someone seriously advocating this??

Sounds like a dumb idea to me. What purpose would it serve?


...CoRtZ...
NO, it is rasist and it wont make a difference.!

No.
That's stupid.
It's prison for god sake ! They're all meant to be together, and treated like equals.


!!Red!!
I can't believe that Pita Shapels is actually standing behind this idea. It's stupid and it makes us look like we now need special treatment in the freaking justice system. I hate that 15% of Maori are in and out of jail on a yearly basis but to seperate us everybody else in just nonsense. They got themselves into jail they should suffer like every other in-mate...

No. We are supposed to be one. Not seperated because of race or ethnicity.

OMG, what are we? South Africa with its Apartheid regime?

Hm, if that's NZ's interpretation of multiculturalism, I say we're in for about 50 different prison types and who knows what else.
If that's where it goes in all consequence, make it so.
I want parking lots for German-Paraguayans only, please.

I think thats so mean and racist! My grandfather was maori and i stick behind him.


Toast
No way! Everyone can so to the same prison. If Nz comes to doing things like that im leaving!.

No, this idea came from those who have been sucking the system for all they can get, next they would privatise their prison and suck more bucks out of the public purse to fund their own cause, the inmates would gain nothing of value and the i suspect crime rates would increase not the reverse.
