    Not “Evil” as that usually involves some kind of cleverness to accomplish.... merely illustrating their lust for control over our lives and those of potential political opposition.

    You may have missed it in fluff news but there’s so much discontent with Jacinda and co that the security agencies are overwhelmed and only investigating the most severe blatant displays of violent hatred and even then only tracking the few that are actually capable of carry out any kind of attack or event. One could presume that the majority of people unable to pose are threat are prob in that category because their too busy working multiple jobs and raising kids to have time for anything else. Or they are probably victims of the lack of healthcare and incapacitated.

    They can’t be monitoring this site or else about a half dozen from here would be in jail for political hate speech, mostly referring to trump supporters should be lined up and shot etc isn’t it odd that the left spectrum is usually the first to suggest violence to solve political problems....

    Umm I'm on record as saying the people that support Trump are tragic fuckwits or similar. I'd be interested to see you quote the posts that suggest lining the dim fucks up and shooting them. No rush.

    God his algorithm is desperate now. Its programming itself not only to be stupid but to blatantly lie. A lot like Trump. But trump is a real person, not just some bad Russian programming running on ex soviet hardware.

    While that post was not directed towards you as you can hold a reasoned debate, I have seen it from others, others who should know better too.
    The search tools on this site are a bit cumbersome. Searching shot or lined up and shot both return 406 PAGES of results with about 20 threads on each page. I’m sure somewhere in there people area talking about stuff other than whiskey, photography or great basketball moments....
    In fact it used to be quite a common saying before the prospect of living under real communism made it less funny....

    So I clicked on a NZ herald video of flood footage on YouTube...

    In the background a low bassy ominous tune quietly plays, like what a Hollywood movie would do to set scene etc.
    This is completely unacceptable in a journalistic environment, should be real life sounds or interviews with witnesses only. No big deal you say but next they’ve will be doing it on the stories to come that will demonise fossil fuel vehicles.

    Nothing sinister here, it's just silence/ambient noise isn't allowed anymore. Everything in the lives of the current generation has to have a soundtrack.

    How convenient that fluff news decides to play the race card leading up to an election.

    https://i.stuff.co.nz/pou-tiaki/3009...tless-searches

    What’s really interesting is the dont graph the data against actual offending or convictions.
    If you do the maths it’s only 26 searches a day nationwide over four years and it also corresponds with the massive upsurge in crime much of it by gangs with their own disproportionate ethnic makeup.

    So what’s a warrant less search??? Well we’ve all seen police ten 7 where they respond to a violent incident or domestic it’s kinda pertinent to find any weapons used straight away. And the classic car full of stones when they smell drugs.

    It would be interesting to see the effect on crime if we went back to the keystone cops style of old days and having to get a judge to issue warrant. I’m sure that extra couple of days to hide your gun from the driveby shooting would restore equality to community. It would hemp reduce crime as cops would find no evidence to convict people.
    Somehow I think would be just like the no pursuit policy outcome…..

    It's meant to indicate systemic racism, that Maori are being singled out as offenders. It doesn't matter if the police were justified or had reasonable suspicion to conduct a search.

    Two approaches for NZ Police to tackle racial bias;


    1. Police shouldn't suspect Maori and let more of them off the hook without biased searches, or
    2. Police should increase the number of unwarranted searches on Asian and European citizens to balance the numbers.


    Then there won't be a racial bias anymore.

    There is no massive upsurge in crime. There may have been a massive upsurge in National Party talking points and the associated headlines. In 2023 NZ is the second safest country on earth behind only Iceland. NZ is not perfectly crime free but it is still better than anywhere else on the planet - except Iceland.

    There does need to be action taken on the Auckland ram raiders some of whom are repeat offenders but are released to offend yet again.


    There is also continuous carping from the right whingers about the economy. Here are some facts on crime and the economy up to date as at yesterday.

    Systemic racism is a politically correct con job to disguise real world crime figures. The often used example is police discretion to let people off on dope smoking and speeding etc. Now the root cause here is those from a poorer background probably lack the intellect to talk nicely and not piss off the cop. It would be great if they kept stats on suspect behaviour towards officer.
    So the real solution is no discretion everyone gets a ticket every time, a real hardcore regime I don’t think the populace wants that.
    In fact let’s do away with courts so there’s no racism there, as soon as you are accused you are guilty.
    I do love that your solution to “ systemic racism” is for police to stop people based on a racial quota.

    Just imagine a cop sees an offender (of any race/profile) leaving crime scene that matches offender description. Damn I can’t nab him I’ve already done my quota of interacting with Type 1 profiles today. “Copy Bob and you intercept that guy on Jackson street he’s a 100% match for our suspect I’ve used up my type 1 quota today” oh bugger Jimmy I’ve used up my quota too well just let him go. I’m gonna be busy anyway I’ve just stopped an 80yesr old lady as I need to get my numbers up on them so I’m not ageist.
