The Maori have protected status in New Zealand even though, like Native Americans in the US, they have mostly European genetics now. LGBTQS also have protected status in New Zealand. For the last few years, the Maori have been stopping Pride Parades and other LGBTQ events. Because of their protected status, the New Zealand government won't stop them from interrupting the other sexuals.



Maybe we can have Native Americans stop LGBTQ, Black Lives Matter and Pro-Palestinian take overs of the roads here, since Native Americans are also protected.

Well most of the natives where I live have been told that they are victims and been handed full government assistance for so long that I don’t think they are conscious enough to care unfortunately.

Even the mentally ill have a right to free speech. I am against anyone limiting free speech. Blocking traffic, graffiti are not free speech. Forcing men to be allowed into a female restroom is not free speech. Telling an adult they can't get their bits cut off is an affront to freedom. I believe transgender is and homosexuality is a mental illness. People very well could be born that way. Other mental illness folks seem to be born with. Instead of celebrating it we should be focused on finding real treatment. Mental health professionals are way behind physical health professionals. The mental health people are at the same place Drs were when they used leeches to treat cancer and syphilis.

The transgender crowd sure seem to present problems more frequently than "straight" people. Homosexuals seem to prevail in the kiddee toucher group. We need to acknowledge that rather than cover it up.

The last time the Indians put up a fight it didn't work out too well for them. I doubt they're interested.

Not all American natives look like Elizabeth Warren.

My belief is the problem is caused by the same genetic defect that causes TDS. And, yes, I am serious.

The Maori dance thing always reminds me of the first gladiator movie. The "barbarians" are cheering and yelling, the Roman's stand silent in formation, the Barbarians scream and charge, the Roman's act like it's another day at the office and proceed to kill all the Barbarians with ruthless efficiency.

I don't catch on too quick. I thought TDS was total dissolved solids.

Totally dizzy,stupid

You're aware that there are plenty of gay men and lesbian women that are hardcore MAGA types, right?

"Plenty" would be a stretch .

Big stretch

I don't know how many plenty is, but loose goose is right that they are out there. I work with several.
