Takapuna Racists~~

**DJ DOOWOP** · 10th January 2006, 08:28

On Saturday last week myself and a mate was hanging out outside his place on Jutland road, Takapuna. We were just minding our owns and my bike was parked by the curb, a car with two lil brats drove past and yelled "####" ... !
Firstly, I ain't white, but I am dame proud of who I am and have got along with every ethnic group in my 30 or so years in NZ.... Central Takapuna though....a different story, populated by (rich spolied kids) whom been taught by thier parents to scorn the minorities....

Anyways, Ok, quite Obvisouly they didn't have an idea who they were messing with...
So, I got on my bike, chase them down to their house, got onto their drive way and gave them a good 20 minute lecture...
2 lil 18 year olds seemly got too much time on their hands and needs to be taught a lesson.... I demanded to see their parents but apparently they weren't there and one commented "My dad is eve more racist !".....ok.... so you see how kids are affected potently by their lovely parents..

I told them I was going to take them to the police station and they got a bit timid.... anyways I went down to the cop shop and filed a complaint , on "dangerous driving"(in fact they were driving dame close to the bike)

Hopefully this educates them, this brat picked on the wrong yellow brother...
Sydney street, Takapuna

2 suggestions
1) take the address off this post... my personal opinion is that you're playing with fire here. (Sedition comes to mind)
2) Go back when the parents are there. I'm willing to bet the "my Dad's even more racist" is a lie...

oh yeah - good on ya for letting them know what's what.

I must admit, I've been responsible for making jokes at the expense of other ethnicities (is that a word?), always in good humour and rarely derogitory. In fact, I don't know a single person who hasn't.

However bigotry is neither big nor clever and the fact that someone would shout something like that out a car window at members of the public should be a punishable offence. She's a big enough country for everybody folks.

Sadly, no there's nothing to stop these morons in this case. I would however be slightly more worried about the repercussions of laying a "false complaint" to the police.In saying this I hate racism and cases like this seem to be reported more and more. To be honest it sounds like the parents are to blame here...

yeah guilty as charged (albeit a while ago now)... I think there's a diffenerence between the "give and take" approach to shit slinging and the "beat 'em down because I believe they're inferior" approach though.

How about the race relations office ?

Nah just smash the little shits upside the head, or go back and see if the dad is really racist.

As said before, its a silly idea to have their address up there.

Im South African and damn proud of it, but a common misconception is thats cause I am from "there" I am a bloody racist. Bloody stereotypical if you ask me. So are you telling me that its my parents fault that I should be racist (Im not btw) or is it a stereotypical trait passed onto us from the rest of the world?

Im not racist at all, but I do sometimes have a chuckle at the misfortunes of others, regardless of their skin colour. As do most of the world. But (and NO-ONE take this the wrong way, it my own opinion) I don't like the idea of being called a pakeha, so does that mean I can charge someone for slander if I get called it? No! Its just how it is.

Good on ya for cornering the guys and talking to them, but thats about the best you can do these days

No, it is a personal choice. You have probably hit the nail on the head about the "rest of the world" part, however in this case it sounds as though these idiots parents may encourage this kind of behaviour?

bloody good on ya. can't stand little pricks like that.

**skelstar** · 10th January 2006, 08:57

To a certain extent how you deal with this racism, in the youth's eyes, could only reinforce their own stereotype of your race/colour...what I mean to say is that going vigilante, angry yelling and shouting may work, but its more likely to reinforce their misguided beliefs. *cue cliche antiracism movie storyline*

Good on ya for doing something though...although that address has got to go.

**Grahameeboy** · 10th January 2006, 09:07

I dunno.....me thinks best way to deal with it is to just ignore them.....agree wrong but 'taunts' are something kids do and normally grow out of and you know who you are which is what is more important.....

**HenryDorsetCase** · 10th January 2006, 09:15

why take the address off. If I recall, one of the absolute defences to defamation is truth, so there is nothing defamatory in a statement that says "Two fuckwits at this adress abused me because of the colour of my skin".

Put half a kilo of sugar in the petrol tank of their boy racer fuckwitmobile. wear gloves, do it when no ones around.

by the way thats a joke I would never never suggest such a course of malicious damage to anyone.

Know what I can't stand? Bloody poms. Coming over here, becoming mobile chicanes on the tracks and good riding roads, stealing all the women. Wish they'd piss of back to the land of the lukewarm beer and leave us kiwis alone.

Legally the cops can't do much if the stupid kids hollered something at you on the way past. Otherwise, nearly every half-clad female around the country on a Friday or Saturday night would be harping on them because some guy hanging out the window of his mate's car yelled "show us ya

!!"

I'm agreeing with MDU... "Go back when the parents are there. I'm willing to bet the "my Dad's even more racist" is a lie..."

:eyepoke:
