Default Re: Maori welcome goes wrong.

Hi u2, It is good 2c that u2 watch the news, Yes sometimes things go wrong, however dont class all Maori as being simple please. I think he did go overboard and he should have been charged a bit more, but i must say our marae was involved with Dutch tourist, they were quite good, they were told the pros and cons of a Maori welcome and what to do when approached, by a man doing a wero. From what i saw on the news he was told by the tour operator.However i could not see what was wrong with a smile, by the way i am Maori. Weetbix if you are going to comment or write about Maori please learn to spell MAORI.Also you both may think he got of lightly believe me it will be a bloody while b4 he does another wero, he has also lost his job which a well paying one, so u2 watch he might have to sign up for the DOLE so i hope you are both working so your taxes can support him.
