They would still be running around with spears killing and eating one another in their primitive, stone age society if it wasn't for cheeky whitey who came along. The whites were the ones who came along and gave them everything they needed to become a civilized race. If they don't like it then they can fuck off into the bush and live like they have in pre colonial times. It seems that every one of them embraces modern society, so it can't be that bad.
They were the ones who hunted the moa to extinction, and they continue to abuse the land and sea by selling fishing rights to foreign vessels who overfish the waters. They don't give a fuck about the land anywhere near as much as they say they do. The tribes are nothing more than a bunch of lazy, incompetent fools who want everything handed to them on a plate, and they are the first to cry "racist" when they don't get what they want.
I have met some good Maoris who have nothing to do with that racist tribal bullshit, and those Maoris work hard to live in our society, and I have a lot of respect for them who choose to do so.
but they're black? Does the same hold for the Asian tribes? Or the white supremacist tribes? Or the motorcycle tribes? The govt sells rights to oil exploration and drilling and mining that leaves a huge mess everywhere. Big picture fucko, Yes, that's it Mr Anderson, look past the flesh.

Except where English is the first language.
The treaty's intent was for the crown to govern over all, plain and simple the land issue is a whole other disagreement.
And it all happened a very long time ago so when will it end?
When all of the land is given back to Maori? we know that will never happen.
What about the wrong Maori have done? should we now start taking the land back because of that as it breaks there side of the treaty? after all whats good for the goose.
Everyone secretly knows I'm right, but won't admit it.![]()
At the time of the signing of the treaty Pakeha numbers had barely grown after 50 years of being in this country. Why would Maori willingly sign over sovereignty to Europeans when they could have easily wiped out all Pakeha settlements if they had wished in 1840. It would be noted that the Declaration of Independence in 1835 had very translational issues and missionaries who had learned Maori for over 30 years were used in the translation process. While it ended up being a miscommunication, the inherent right thereafter would go to the Maori.
Why are we under Crown law? Because the British claimed the North Island by cession before many of the tribes had even signed the Maoris version, and claimed the South Island by discovery due to the inhabitants being uncivilised. This was a false claim to make in the first place, especially since the majority of the tribes did not sign the English version but the Maori version, which gave the Crown a right to governorship but left power over land and 'all things treasured' to Maori.
