Just calling it how it looks. Cause it is the facts.

Its more the temporary New Zealanders who are only here to abuse our education system.
Didn't a guy like that get off charges because he gifted money to a preschool?? One law for some, another for those who know people, another for those with money and one for ethinticity!!
So far this week there has been 3-4 bad ones reported on this site,I notice you don't slag off the others.And as far as abusing our education system goesOriginally Posted by sAsLEX
I guess we can forget about the thosands of dollers these people bring into the country,Unlike the Kiwi students that leach off the loan system an then fuck off over seas.The way some of you carry on you would think it was only Asians that fuck up.Get real.
Everyone fucks up! This one I know a little bit about, the others I dont! Freinds of mine were quite close to the guys!
Have you been to a $5500 engineering course recently and not been able to hear the lecturer speak because of the five different languages being spoken around you, or even better when the lecturer struggles with simple conversation english yet alone Electrical Engineering!! Dont think I mentioned anything about asians either!! I haven't borrowed a cent for my education but am working through it, parents haven't either.
How can this country prosper if we give all the space in professional courses to high paying overseas students who then take the skills they learnt back home with them??
whoa as much as i want to stay out of this one it tempts me too much... im not saying anymore then one of you go ask a traffic-cop what the *unofficial* *guestimated* percentage is on the highest accident causing ethnicity, and who it is... But i shall say no more. And Its so sad to read about these things, i get to hear about them all the time, and it always seems to be on afternoon shifts ill be up on Curious Georges level talkin about stuff and im bound to hear theres a m/clist in the ortho theatres! nasty, its happening all too often for my liking, it means my turn is getting closer sooner! well untill then ill just keep on being cautious.. :S
I don't know how often you drive in Auck city jackrat. But if you haevn't been here for a while, come and try it.
As for Marmoots comments, would you say the same to Maoris?

Where do you get those facts from?? I doubt many people avoid paying off their student loans. Anyway, wouldn't a skilled engineer/lawyer/scientist bring alot more money into new zealand than a foreign student who is only here because it is cheaper to go to uni here than it is in japan/china/taiwan etc. But thats another issue all together.Originally Posted by Jackrat
The other crashes haven't had much info about them, and no one was killed in them. In the end this crash was caused by some ignorant driver who did a stupid thing in a very busy road. An innocent person is dead and another is badly injured. If this "fucking asian" had bothered to check his/her mirrors this wouldn't have happened.
I guess the reason why i am pissed off the most is cause it could have easily been me, or even you jackrat, and through no fault of our own we could be dead right now. And what will happen about it, sfa. The driver will get done for careless driving causing death and get disqualified from driving for 6 months and get a $2000 fine or so. Definately worth it for a lost life.
Yea I agree Jackrat,Originally Posted by Jackrat
I'm going to vent here...I don't care if anybody reads it or comments on it - I'm getting it off my chest
I have to say this cos I get heated under the collar with racism (i'm 100% Kiwi) apart from boosting our economy with new money,Asians and indians
are the most productive employees we have ever had (in our personal business)....and i'm sorry, but they put a lot of "other NZ" people to shame when it comes to doing a bloody good hard days work! I never hear them whine or complain or threaten the employment act, discuss terrible work conditions ("awe gee its 1 degree hotter to work in, this is an unacceptable working environment- please spend thousands of dollars on an air con system just for me) and they never complain about pay rates! in fact they appreciate having a job and prove it in their work
If it wasnt for asians and indians and all I had was lazy, dole bludging (The ungenuine ones..) no hopers to choose from (for factory work) or the ones that think you are on the earth to serve them and that they are doing YOU a favour by working for you,I would be taking stress leave every month. (well according to OSH, business owners don't suffer stress, cos theres certainly no allowance for their well being in the workplace)
One has to wonder why our economy is raging and benefiting all, it could have something to do with our visitors.....

I'm working full time, have two small children, and am putting myself through a M. Communications (IT) part time. It is bloody frustrating to pay all that money and then sit there and struggle to reach a level of intellectual interaction with people who struggle to say "Hello", let alone discuss the impact of IT on intercultural communication.
I apologise for not being grateful to my employer for gifting me a job, and doubly apologise for not paying for the privilege of going to work for them. I am a white male, so I obviously am not prime employment material, but I will promise to be lazy and sit round all day surfing the Internet and drinking coffee.
I've run a couple of small businesses, and its bloody hard work. However I like to think that I never descended to that patronising, condescending attitude, towards employees who work to live. If you want to see lazy white people in action head to Europe, and the UK in particular. You take your laziest white employee to the UK and he/she will look like a whirling dervish of dynamism.
Oh yeah, I steal pens from work. Not because I go out of my way to increase my crap biro collection mind. More because I forget to take the suckers out of my bag/pocket at the end of the day.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

? Its not about being grateful about having a job, its about not being a pain in the arse to the employer when you do.
i'm also talking about low skill employment here by the way. Im not talking skilled employment in what I wrote about above.

Good argument, but when you are getting paid to do a job, you do it- isn't that fair? ? it works both ways. You do the job you are PAID to do. How you live your life or veiw the means of obtaining that income is not my business

Yea I have seen it - and who was it that started the unions here.- and yes before anybody gets hot under the collar about that, unions do protect employees and have their place. there are a lot of wanky employers out there who take advantage of employees and I agree they need protection - but im not one of them. All the staff in our business are wonderful and we like have regular shouts to show appreciation for their input

By the way,if that was me I would capitalize on forgetfullness and "walking" pens and put our company name & logo on them for maximum exposure - but thats just the sort of person I am I suppose, right Jim?Oh yeah, I steal pens from work.

The (Indian) rider, said the driver was Asian . Nationality should be irrelevant, but it is a fact of life that there are high percentages of Asian drivers with limited experience, driving around the Uni area. Was probably only a matter of time brfore something like this happened.![]()

She did a uey at a T intersection around the traffic island I was turning into the long part of the t and she was turning out.... or so I thought. Tipped right in I suddenly realised she was still turning and with the reactions of a rhinocerous I locked up the back wheel and had the front end screaming for mercy. Damn near high sided into her.
About the time my front end wialed its mournful cry she finally looked and saw me. The iritating thing was I stopped in time to leave her line open but she did not.
however it gets worse, when she came to a stop right in the middle of my line she adjusted her glasses and squinted at me. before realising she had nearly hit me.
At 6.3 300lbs in a bright blue jacket on a large red and blue bike with the head light on she failed to identify me a s a hazard until after she would have (save for my actions) been parked on me.
Thge truly scary bit is if i had not been on a sport bike I probably would not have been able to pull up in such a short distance (40-50kmph to stationary in about 2 bike lenghts, while on its side). On a cruiser I would probably still be in surgery.
Not to mention the woman who did a U-turn in front of me in her Vitara last Sunday on Tamaki Drive was blonde and blue-eyed (OK I admit I couldn't quite see her eyes, but she was European). Also gave me the blank stare about half-way through the U-turn as I braked hard towards her. Fortunately she at least indicated so I had some warning!![]()
I have worked/commuted down Symonds Street for many years and that street is just crazy outside the University these days. Double-parking is commonplace and people continually pull out without looking properly. I usually try to find a car to sit in behind to act as a "shield" as it's just not worth being the first down the road on a bike from the lights.![]()
However, I had a great ride up Highway 16 to Wellsford today! Just a few roadworks to contend with including lime being spread about halfway between Helensville and Wellsford. Took me a while to clean that off when I got home!
