But cowards too.
‘Auckland City Council ignored illegal structures on a Black Power stronghold for years because of “safety concerns” for staff, according to a letter sent on behalf of Mayor John Banks.
But the council was quick to threaten $750-a-day fines on the new owner of the gang pad and suggested he call police if he felt pressured by members to leave.’
This is part of a depressing bloody pattern in our society–the middle (working) class are targeted as a source of revenue while scumbags get away with lawless behaviour because it’s either too hard or not worthwhile trying to enforce the law. To be a working property owner is to make oneself a static target, fair game for every slimy little apparatchik with a rule book.
And “call the police”? Don’t make me laugh–calling the police didn’t stop a farming family being threatened and burned out of their property in the Far North by brown thugs. And where will the cops be when these animals turn up at 3am with baseball bats to wreak revenge for someone calling the police?
