Nothing to do with Hone
February 19th, 2013 at 4:00 pm by David FarrarDavid Fisher at NZ Herald reports:
Three sons of anti-violence campaigner Hinewhare Harawira – and nephews of MP Hone Harawira – are facing charges over an assault on a 12-year-old boy. …
The three sons facing charges of injuring with intent to injure in relation to the August 24 incident are Mau Toa Harawira, 30, Enesi Zane Brooks Taito, 25, and Tohora Harawira, 22.
Assaulting a child is loathsome. However I think the reference to Hone Harawira and headline of “Harawira sons charged” is inappropriate.
These three people are all adults. One of them is 30. Their uncle is not responsible for what they do. Even their mother is not responsible.
The parliamentary office of Hone Harawira, leader of the Mana Party and MP for Te Tai Tokerau, declined to comment.
He shouldn’t have been asked to comment. Would any other MP be asked to comment on what an adult nephew does?
Don’t take this to mean any support for the three men who have been charged. Three adult men beating up a 12 year old is awful, and if guilty they should be punished. But I don’t believe in guilt by association.

Yes.
February 19th, 2013 at 4:10 pm
Agree.
I don’t offer any support to adults that beat on children (or other adults either) but to make someone guilty or responsible by association or ‘blood’ ties is stupid.
Having said that (there is always a but!) should that person or persons have been present at the time or had prior knowledge of the act, and did not try to intervene, or have spoken out in defense of the violence, then they deserve criticism. Far too many people fail to step in or speak up when it comes to family violence.

Agreed although Hone is hardly alone in inappropriate beat ups by the media.
Besides he’s a big enough tool on his own without needing guilt by association.

Hone thinks that charges of kicking and punching a 12 year old boy are simply a “dispute” that he can “help settle”?!

“Mana Party MP Hone Harawira has offered to help settle a dispute between three of his nephews and a 12-year-old boy the trio allegedly assaulted.”
When three thugs kicking a 12 year old doesn’t settle the dispute you clearly need a fourth.

I agree but the fact that Hone is a complete fuckwit means he brings this sort of thing on himself. Maybe watching their entire family (including Hone) act the way they do goes some way towards explaining offenders behaviour.

Bloody Hatfields!
We recall the Hatfield name change to Harawira. We know the Hatfields and the McCoys waged the most famous feud in modern Western history. Genes of the Ulster folk of both these families show up all over the English-speaking world.
So don’t rush to blame the Ngapuhi for any “boisterousness” of the Harawira-Hatfields.
The Hatfield-McCoy feud’s now a film. If you click on the link below to the trailer you will hear a Hatfield say: “I come unarmed to ask you for my boys.” Perhaps they were in their 30s, too.

If he had more political instinct he’d speak out against what the nephews did. It doesn’t seem to be in dispute because it’s a summary they’ve agreed on apparently. Speaking out against what they did, rather than who they are may have given him some credit, particularly if the language was strong enough..’they are my nephews but what they have done….’
Heaps reading here will believe that Hone is deeply flawed, despite that he has a place in politics and the electorate, but stuff like this happening possibly shows one of his true flaws – an inability to take the wider view when it comes to his family. From what little is released it seems apparent that this was not only an serious assault against a child, but a robbery was well. Mana might be sticking with family through thick and thin, but I don’t think it extends to being silent when they do things wrong, probably the opposite.

Aw, come on David!!
Of course Hone should have been asked to comment!.
He’s a public figure, and anything of a newsworthy – or scandalous – nature such as these circumstances is probably, or almost certainly, going to prompt some news agency to put the question:
“Tell me, Mr Harawira, have you any comment to make in relation to the report that persons related to you are alleged to have………….”
Public figure? Public property!
Private Life? Only when reported to be suffering from a life threatening disease – and even THAT didn’t stop non-stop news about Paul Holmes, did it?.

I’m going to have my say on this one, because I’m sick of hearing about this wasp’s nest.
Yes, they should have asked Hone Harawira for comment, because everyone knows the loathsome racist MP has poisoned his entire whanau, including the Popata brothers, not to mention the wider feral community, as his mother did before him. This is a tight clan, they clearly hate the rest of us and don’t hide their agenda. Ask anyone from their neck of the woods – I have; these are the ‘haters and wreckers’.
They (like some in the media – we all know which ones) are all complicit in this ongoing fostering of hatred and resentment towards the 95%, and as this story shows, callous violence and disrespect towards anyone who’s got what they ain’t got is all part of it. The anger may well have some substance but what the fuck can an ordinary person do about it? We’re already paying through the nose for low quality Maori spending, the latest of which is some bullshit ‘alternative medicine’ which our ‘Western way of thinking’ can’t comprehend!
‘Anti violence campaigners’ spare me. Just another way to suck some funds from someone else.
Shit breeds shit breeds shit. Ordinary Maori need to distance themselves from mongrels like the Harawiras because more and more kiwis not to mention immigrants are lumping them all in together. One day the patience (read money) is gonna run out.
Vote:February 19th, 2013 at 7:06 pm
So this is what a 22, 25 and 30 y.o. did:
So first of all these guys are real quick to take offence, aren’t they: “they saw the boy “mouthing some words at them”.”
Yeah, what went through their sophisticated, peaceful minds at that point? My guess is: “Hey look cuzzy bro, that fulla over there is [leap to conclusion] being racist. Aw foo man, that fulla needs a hiding, eh.”
What’s the bet the conversation was something along those lines.
Secondly, HE’S 12 YEARS OLD BUT NO WORRIES, WE DON’T CARE. (Because these boys have been raised not to care. By this time one assumes, given their execrable upbringing filled with racist hatred, they were white hot with [probably invented] outrage.)
Thirdly, they pursue the 12 YEAR OLD into HIS HOME. How many of us would have stopped at the driveway and just given up? But no, not the Harawiras. They’re going to give this fulla a bashing, eh. Teach him a lesson, foo. (Because, due to their racist appalling upbringing, these children in men’s bodies were no doubt thinking of nothing, absolutely nothing, but utu. (As their execrable parents and grandparents had no doubt drilled into them since they were babies.)
And so on.
I really hope the judge throws the book at these thugs. AND condemns their parents and any other whanau caregivers involved in their upbringing, for doing such a palpably useless job at raising civilised human beings.
February 19th, 2013 at 7:15 pm
Still Reid you could say that they were lucky that the 12 year old never pulled a shotgun and blew the whole of the three useless bastards away.

Vote:February 19th, 2013 at 7:21 pm
Sorry David but the headline “Harawira sons charged” is absolutely appropriate.
Almost at the moment their mother was taking centre stage in a taxpayer-funded anti-violence campaign, her sons were acting as loathsome thugs against a twelve year old. The perception of a role model mother needs to be corrected.
Taxpayers need to know that their money designed to go to diminish family violence is going to mothers who cant control their own kids and whose own kids are thugs and hoons who attack 12 year olds on flimsy grounds.
If it was a single black sheep it might be different. But this exposes a culture that the public need to know about. If it were the Key or Paula Bennet family the issue would be the same.

I can’t say I’ve ever seen one Harawira who you could call normal by any stretch, every single time they’re in the news, one deformity or another ALWAYS comes to light.
It’s not in their bodies of course (after all, they’re “good looking” apparently (although why they’d think that, I have no idea, I haven’t ever seen an attractive Harawira sheila, ever)), it’s in their minds.

Re Mark at 10.28 and David Garrett at 10,40:
Ngapuhi elder David Rankin, a relative of Hone Harawira, was reported by the NBR in August 2010 as having said on Campbell Live on TV3 on 3rd August 2010 that Hone Harawira’s original name was Hone Hatfield.
Hone has on at least one occasion denied this, but it may have been his father’s generation that changed the surname to Harawira from Hone’s grandfather’s surname.
Rankin was reported as saying on the Campbell show: “Remember Hone, your grandfather was a Pakeha.”
So is Hone a member of the Hatfield clan or is he a full, real McCoy Harawira?
The way some of his Harawira relatives behave I suspect the Harawiras share some of the wild Ulster genes of the famous feuding hillbillies.

What is it with claims of inherited violent dispositions. This is ALL nurture being expressed. As such the family environment can be held accountable for the actions of these bottom-feeding scumbags and that includes the cuzzies and the aunties and the uncles who have had an influence on the attitudes.
When sober they might be OK but it could be claimed that their true nature becomes expressed when they have had a bellyfull of white-man’s brew.
Aaaaah – the true culprit must be the colonial oppressors (white mo-fos that they are) and the introduction of beer.

I agree this should have been reported. The Harawira’s have a history of violence. Anyone remember Mommy dearest beating up patients under a programme that was supposed to rehabilitate them. She also was very threatening on Waitangi day. Hone wants Maori to stop beating their kids, so yes this is of public interest.
Also there have been many instances of children/relatives of MP’s or celebrities being in the news as mentioned above. I recall Annette King’s (I think) daughter being caught was it for drugs in a car or crashing a Ministerial car.

David, it’s not too often I disagree with you, but in this case I am afraid I must, and that is for two reasons.
Firstly, we have been told for years about the solidarity of the Maori Whanau, and especially the Whangai concept, where a member of the extended family raises a child. If you are part of a people who embrace the whole concept of an extended family, then you cannot hide away from it when it goes wrong.
Secondly, one of the reasons that Titewhai Harawira ended up escorting the Prime Minster on to Te Tii Marae was that other kuia and the people of Tai Tokerau were subjected to overt threats ov violence by the Harawira’s, Popata’s and their ilk. If this family wish to parade their tenedencies to violence to get what they want, then when it get’s reported in such a setting, they should not be able to resile from that behaviour!
