You cannot make this up

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=11179006

“Fired nurse who terrified patients wins $2500 compensation”

Been involved in a couple of employment cases, which either ended up in front of the ERA or in the process of getting there.

Always easy to spend other people’s money – the system is ludicrous as it’s so open to abuse. The people it’s theoretically protecting are the one’s who never seem to use it. It’s just become a tax on sacking bad employees.

“What I do with this information is my business.”

@RF, If you are so anti Maori why do you not have the courage of your convictions and use your full real name like I and a few others do?

Chuck Bird. 8.18pm. Freedom of speech not to use my full name. Shit man look at the many posters on this site… Am I the only one. You are reading too much into what I say big brother but thats your problem. You really should Allow others freedom of expression. Anti Maori ? Maybe in certain cases but very Anti animals who have no concern for their fellow man. Sorry but I thought you would understand but then again I ask too much.. Chuck Bird.. Yea right.

“Eagle who take Tenderfoot on camping trip only have one intent!”

That started out sounding like one of those awful “Confucius, he say…” jokes, but without a recognizable punchline.

Johnboy this will surely strongly resonate with you,

So let’s take the safe route…..do you deny that “cultural” factors may have an influence on the violent antisocial attitudes displayed by some of our “cultural” groups?

Yes, because there are 50 other more significant factors that influence which individual human being is violent and antisocial. One of those factors is those who put the potentially antisocial human being in a box with all his other “fellow perps” (and we know they’re *all the same* right?), put a label on the outside and file it away without revisiting it. As you’ve done. Simply reinforcing the existing stereotype until it becomes true because you’ve had a hand in perpetuating it.

You also seem to have also confused what has happened with what may happen. If you continue to look at what has happened without ever thinking about what may happen if it were different then you just reinforce that little box you’ve got even further until you become a shrivelled up antisocial btard yourself – and you start taking everyone else down with you.

Interesting how a group of cowardly thugs accused of attacking a defenceless young couple are granted name suppression “because it is their first court appearance” according to PEB, yet another NZ woman who is not Maori and who allegedly shot her husband, is named (and granted bail) at her first court appearance. Please expain the double standard.

It’s astounding how many legal experts hang out at KB. Especially during Christmas.

itstricky. 10.10am. Call me stupid but it does smack of double standards. I guess I was unlucky to be born white.
