MAORI TO LAY CLAIM AGAINST KIM DOTCOM FOR CUSTOMARY MINING RIGHTS

Saturday 31 May 2014

Customary Data Mining Rights bottom line issue, says Harawira  

Te Tai Tokerau Maori are laying claim to their part of all Internet data under the Treaty of Waitangi.

Mana Party leader Hone Harawira said that “Knowledge and information isn’t owned by any one entity, and knowledge and information existed well before the Internet came along.”

“As a result, Northland Maori lay claim to their share of all of Kim Dotcom’s income he has derived from the Internet”.

An exact amount hasn’t been suggested, but talks are being scheduled.

“Public reports of income in excess of $200 million make Northland Maori believe that, our customary data mining rights can lay claim to a significant proportion of this”, Harawira said.

He added: “I do not believe this is going to stand in the way of the Internet Mana Party in the near future, but I do expect our customary data mining rights to be recognised before the election”.

This would be Because they broke the Law

Nearly every Maori family has a member who has been labelled a criminal, parliament has been told.

The Maori Party says that’s a disgrace and the justice system is flawed.

“Maori are 15 per cent of the population yet we are 50 per cent of the prison population,” co-leader Te Ururoa Flavell said during Wednesday’s general debate.

“But it’s not just the proportion of prisoners who are Maori, it’s the proportion of Maori who are actually prisoners.”

Mr Flavell said for Maori males born in 1975 it was estimated that 22 per cent had served a custodial or community sentence before their 20th birthday.

By the time they were 35, 44 per cent had served a custodial or community sentence.

“This means that virtually every Maori whanau in the country will have someone who has been labelled a criminal,” Mr Flavell said.

Had to laugh at this.

Jail is where you go when you break the LAW.  So this just shows that Maori break the law more than other races in NZ. Face up to the FACTS

The government needs to face up to the unfair treatment of Maori in the criminal justice system, the Green Party says.

A United Nations working group has recommended the government undertake a review of the degree of inconsistencies and systemic bias against Maori at all levels of the criminal justice system.

The working group noted that Maori are over-represented in the prison population and warned that incarceration that is the outcome of bias “constitutes arbitrary detention in violation of international law”.

Green Party co-leader Metiria Turei says it’s not OK to have a legal system that sends more Maori to prison with longer sentences.

Good on ya Kiwi’s

I guess New Zealanders are all choked up about the America’s Cup loss.

Don’t feel so bad about yourself, as you were not one of the CHOKERS on the Boat.

What a pack of losers, 8 wins to 1 and still lost the cup.

 

Thats it

The country has gone to the dogs.

Marriage is between 2 people of the opposite sex.  AS the Bible says.

Why would a gay person that wants to get married, when in their religion it says it’s a SIN.

The Catholic church has it correct when they say no to it in their church. It doesn’t meet the requirements for the sacramental marriage .

Now back to work
