		<description>re•In 1987, a gang of Rastafarians in Ruatoria began an armed insurgency. Like the 2007 plotters, their leader declared war on New Zealand and talked about killing white people and driving farmers from their land. Their reign of terror involved capturing armed police at gunpoint, accusations of police brutality, and the arson of more than 60 buildings, including the courthouse and the police station. The rebellion only stopped when the Rasta leader, Chris Campbell, was shot dead by a local farmer in self-defence [3].

Accusations?? these were true and as we all know it police get off when they all stick together. 
Chris Campbell was murdered by Luke Donnelly and it was not in self defence... Chris was unarmed and went to Luke&#039;s house because he was called over there... Luke bragged about killing some Roosters (Rastas) days before hand... Luke Donnelly shot Chris Campbell 8-9 times with two different rifles.  Of course Chris wanted our land back... how can it be that in three generations we,the descendants of this land, have nothing...no land to live in peace for ourselves... There is enough land for everyone to live in harmony with each other. 
Luke Donnelly was also aquitted of all charges...funny that how the majority (if not all) the jury were...wait for it...Farmers...now how could that have happened through natural selection?? Also, not all the arsons were lit by the Ruatorian Rastas...it was also a plot by the 
opposition...and no Mike Hemsley, we the maori people of the East Coast-Tairawhiti do NOT originate from the Mongrel Mob...We descend from a long line of chiefs whom 9 were killed (murdered) on Cooks arrival here, hence the Name given as Poverty Bay... Wouldnt you be hostile if your family were murdered in front of you? 
We were not allowed to believe in our Gods or have penises on our carvings (most were cut off)or go to our Tohunga(experts). When we weren&#039;t beaten in the NZ wars, what do you think happened next?? only small pox where maori had no immunity to...maori complied, learnt the english language, the bible (even translated it)adapted to being abused and hated in their own land. The result being a win-lose situation. My ancestors have worked hard to save what little is left for us and still we get abused in the papers for being greedy. Who gives one race the right to be superior to all other races?? Masters in Intimidation and Control of course.</description>

		<description>Interesting article.
I fail to see however how any one can condone the raids of October 2007 as stopping Acts of terrorism.
The police may well have uncovered people gathering for instruction in acts of political dissent but terrorism goes way too far.The solicitor General had no choice to state the arrested could not be charged under the Anti terror legislation as there was simply not the evidence. The rhetoric after a mere PR job.
Nice touch mention the NZ gangs though and of course the people of of the East coast have affiliation with the Mongrel mob, that&#039;s the place they originated from .There would be very little Maori families that do not have a gang connection somewhere in their Whakapapa.
The only unsolved murder by an IED was the caretaker of the Wellington Trades hall in the 70&#039;s Ernie ABBOT.
I make no comment on the number of weapons seized, its a rural community simple.
No the claim of a silence .22 possible pistol?
perhaps its a cut down .22 rifle cut so short thats its physical measurements are the only thing that makes it a &quot;pistol&quot;.
The rastas in the Ruatoria area led by Chris CAMPBELL were simply drug suppliers thieves and stand over men. the reign ended by proactive approach by local police and Luke DONNELY shooting CAMPBELL. the remains of the group attempted to slur the police investigators who were cleared of any unlawful activity.
Now a Plot to kill KEY? if the police have the evidence why didn&#039;t charge the &quot;plotters&quot; with conspiracy to commit murder?
Simple answer is that they have no evidence that would withstand cross examination in court.
I would love to read an unwashed copy of the original affidavit ,all 150 odd pages,as what I have seen is simple cut and pastes from transcripts of recorder phone conversations and on line trading site transaction that are very very weak.
An interesting post all the same</description>
