How dangerous is New Zealand for visitors, Asians, women, children?

[Gubb]

- New Zealand is a pretty dangerous place for visitors, Asians, women and children.

Guess i've got nothing to worry about then.

The publisher of the blog probably has a PhD in lunacy. The articles in NZ herald and stuff.co.nz linked in the post, are, unfortunately, authentic.

A university of life degree in common sense coupled with a hidden agenda is more likely - otherwise there would have had to be some sort of references supporting those outrageous claims.

Sadly yes. Luckily, those bad things doesn't happen nearly as often in NZ compared to many other developed countries.

is there statistics on the ethnicity of the people that commited the worst crimes, i.e murder, rape, assult, ??

would be interesting.

I dont think that there are any figures in that site that are even close to accurate. Its all slander and bullshit.

Worse crimes by ethnicity - sadly you only have to read the news to see many countries commit atrocities against people. Take your pick.


Anyone believing anything that site says is a complete retard. Quoting it as fact and using it as an argument on why NZ is crap is even worse.

All I can say is if you think NZ is the 15th most dangerous in the world - you have no fucken idea about the rest of the world.

What a load of shit.

Agreed. The website its from looks like its just NZ bashing. But if it keeps a few people from moving here then I guess that leaves more room on the road for ME!

Sorry if i pissed some of you off.

Its just that i have been in new zealand since 1995 and the last 12 months have been the worst. almost every day there is something in the news. not sure if its the heat (global warming) making people crazy or what but staddings, rap, murder, armed assult, beatings are all on the rise... and the offending are getting younger and younger.

I appologies for any hurt feelings.

It's not a matter of hurt feelings, it's a matter of C+Ping a load of bollocks from a website which takes a bunch of news stories and bad data and turns them into a shrieking, paranoid bunch of nonsense about how NZ is the 15th most dangerous country in the world.

You can complain about the crime rate, ask what can be done, but your OP makes you look a bit daft and dare I say it, naive...

I agree, that Rap is terrible shit, and those rappers need a damn good beating! As for the staddings! Well, words fail me, as they appear to have done you.

I haven't heard a single gunshot while laying in bed here, ever. What was a common thing back in L.A. is replaced by beautiful silence.
NZ a dangerous place? Yeah Right!

Knives don't make much of a bang - notice the number of stabbings we've had over the last 6 months??

You should be more sorry for putting forward the shit that you linked to and quoted.

Forget hurting feelings.

Read it again - its a disgusting load of racist shit that has no base in fact. Yet here you are - in your adopted country saying just how shit it is.

I cannot stand people that do that - generally they come here because NZ offers a better life for them.

So if NZ is so bad (and assuming you done come one of the 14 countries that according to you are worse than NZ) - why not fuck off to where you came from for a better and safer quality of life.

Well I'm amazed - New Zealand is one of the few remaining countries in the world where EVERY murder makes the national News. In the UK and Europe and the states most murders never make it into a local rag let alone national news.

That's why it SEEMS worse here.

Anyway - I should go back to Glasgow - apparently they don't expect to get mugged when they mug you over here
