The Japs have upset Maoridom (www.nzherald.co.nz).

The re-imagining of maori culture has given some deluded souls a very self-important view of the world.

Same goes for Burkas

1353573 2013-09-16 02:53:00 i don't give two shits about whether or not the maoris are pissed off, because this is NOT just about them.

The japs have a cultural basis for this refusal, just as the maoris have their tats for theirs. The maori pushing against the japs would be hugely hypocritical. Further, the japs would happily turn away ANY tattooed people, not just maori. Best they just drop it and get over it.

1353576 2013-09-16 08:16:00 Absolute [edited] for not not accepting Japanese cultural norms when in Japan. When this [edited] is here in NZ they expect all and sundry to obey their cultural laws which they make up as they go. Like not standing on a peak of a NZ mountain anymore, and diverting roads around taniwha or koha being paid to keep the road to plan. prefect (6291)

1353578 2013-09-16 11:33:00 Oh Dear, the PC brigade is out in force again, is it?

Censoring/deleting an offensive word is acceptable, but did it call for a separate post pointing out the fact?? :(

We are not in Play School here.
