Agreed but I'm fascinated by their motivations - trying to understand them but can only speculate.

I don't think you are over-reacting - it's definately warped. I don't think that a sane mind can ever understand the workings of another. We choose to filter the information we want and don't want, depending on the looking glass that we want to see through. This site magnifies out of all perspective information selectively chosen to justify some point that the website author wants to believe.
I don't think that there would be any point in being hooked into trying to present a balanced view, or argue for truth - never throw your pearls in front of swine. It just wastes time that could be better spent riding ... :scooter:

They seem to use American English (i.e. improper English :bleh:), so maybe the yanks are trying to make their country appear like a better one by degrading/criticising NZ?
But seriously though, I have no problem if they can back up what they say (freedom of speech and all), but I'm sure anyone can have a similar site for any country in the world - all you need to do is go through the papers, find all the bad news about the country and put them together. What's scary is that some ignorant people are going to see the website, consider NZ a dangerous places because of it (let's face it, which country can honestly say that they are danger-free, and no one ever gets killed/injured?). Good thing that most people aren't ignorant enough to judge NZ simply based on that website :)

Hmmm...yeah I certainly do not grok virtually every aspect of the site. Hate seems to be the over riding theme....Doubt the site would appeal to any minority group!
'Unbalanced' would be the nicest comment I could make.

Seems someone's just taking the material from other links and posing them up with their own comments. I just had q quick look at some links where the stories have come from news sites Stuff etc.
Put all the shit on one site and it looks a lot worse than it is, still no one should die in custody and the fuckers who shot the duck need string up by the gooly and as for the SIS and Gilchrist stuff been there done that etc.
Mind you whoever is doing this I'd sooner this than the other.........:2guns:

Hadn't thought of it like that - is that accurate statement - no artist license?
Also - the original link... they stopped accepting my submissions LOL. I went to them and said I was interested in an even keel discussion, facts figures from independent sources (rather than simply quoting themselves) and prefer to avoid inflammatory comments...
They deleted that, and suspect they're blocking my IP. Speaks volumes really...

Actually I think you'll find that that's the original spelling. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeeland#New_Zealand
Going by the name of the guy on the site I'm guessing this is a freaked out Afrikaner reverting to the original Dutch name to make a point....

I wish I was exaggerating... Anything containing a grain of truth is taken out of context, distorted, and blown out of all proportions, the rest is just made up. Where do you think the attitude of an average Kiwi towards Israel comes from?
I can understand and rationalize when I come across a mental fart of a website run by a fringe left lunatic. It is a lot more disconcerting when canards of the same scale are published by an official newsrag.

Who ever's behind this should work for the mainstream media they've got the necessary skills.
Inaccurate data and sensationalism, what a combination.
Lets face it these type of websites and forums are really just an internet version of talkback radio and you know what sort of people that attracts.

Is that a reflex of immense amount of free time and rate?

No mention of the number of "innocent" overseas tourists that die ...visiting Europe ...
It has been noted in the past that many deaths on New Zealand roads ... are due to lack of knowledge,ability, and experience on the type of roads we have in New Zealand. Recently in MY area ... a small young child died because the (father) driver didn't put the handbrake on when he stopped ....
New Zealand does not have a monopoly on evil people ...

was about to point the same thing out,
Had a look through some of the stuff, clearly written by a Maori who thinks his land and family got flogged by the whites many moons ago.
Didnt they invade the Moriori then eat them??
They proceeded to enslave some Moriori and kill and cannibalise others http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moriori_people#European_contact_and_invasion_by_Ta ranaki_M.C4.81ori

Yeah, seen that. Its been there since 2008 as far as I know, found it looking for images of our Clayton Weatherston.
NZ Hate page, judging by the Aparthate (apartheid) name its South African.
I sent them some abuse that gets twisted by them into pure garbage, from memory it was a comment about the jail population here being primariarly Maori, they responded by saying "that just shows how racist we are".
In all honesty you dont want to know how racist I am, but when brown boy come bashing my door in and smacking me around cos I have "short hair" (im no skin head) and call me racist, a) I think they are confused as if I was the racist I would be the one on their doorstep, and b) It really does make me "weary" at the least and "hatefull" which would be a normal human responce.
I actually consider Maori are in violation of the treaty and it should be foreclosed on, why? As taking up a Nazzi stance is most certainly not pledging alegiance to the Queen, nor is gang activity and the excessive violance they use as stand over tactics.
Given the chance to integrate and benefit from English (which im not) the responce has been organised crime and white hate.
But back to topic, best not fuel the fire and stay away from that site (in fact all of the above), it is pure garbage and propoganda.
I have written to the government about it, they are aware it exists.

I tell tourists not to come here or to at least be very carefull, there is a tendancy for them to go missing and get raped.
did pierce martin ever show up after waitangi?
I wouldnt want to be a ginge on a marae.

Either New Zealand is the "hellmouth" (oh what great memories of Buffy) or - stop the presses - shit happens in lil ole EnZud. All that stuff happens every second of the day in every part of the world. It probably just sounds worse for us since we're a comparatively small population.
Someone appears to simply have nothing better to do with their time than trawl the media and basically scoop all the poop from the surface of the sewerage pond.
