Not all of it - there was huge amounts of confiscations ... and demonstrably wrong confiscations - such as calling Tuhoe "rebels" which they may well have been - but no-one wanted Te Uruwera - so land belonging other iwi was confiscated .. iwi who were not rebels then (but guess what angry people become???)
Waikato was deliberately attacked - and when they fought back they were declared "rebels" and land was confiscated ...
The peaceful village of Parihaka was invaded by troops - the troops were met by women and children bearing food and flowers for the soldiers .. they were ridden down by the troops, the village sacked .. the women raped ...
We have a bloody history - just like all other groups of people ..
Should we turn our back on our Pākehā relations because we've had enough of them ??? No - we did not do that.
You are wrong to label a whole ethnic culture like that - there are just as many Pākehā who think they are owed a living ... and some of us Māori just get jobs and work .. like the rest of us living together in this land.
