"...the nature of the issues are complicated and require multiple solutions." Cindy Kiro, 19 Nov 2008.
Cindy was talking-oh if only if she actually DID someting rather than talk-about the Nia Glassie child murder case and child abuse in general.
She goes on in the same article.
Lets address Kiros first quote.
How complicated is it to remove welfare from those that produce kids for that welfare then maim and kill children, and how difficult is it to make those individuals and groups responsible for doing such despicable things to kids?
In a normal world where personal responsibility reigns it is easy. If you removed the easy welfare the problem would largely go away and if you dealt severely to those already on the wrong side of the tracks when they offended, against property, other citizens and children you would soon send the right message and the abuse would be cut.
No welfare equals no breeding deadbeat morons who kill kids for fun Cindy.
With knuckle dragging lazy self centered PC morons like Cindy though personal responsibility goes out the window with appropriate punishment.
Her second quote makes no sense at all.
Poverty playing a part in child murder is laughable. Back in the 1930s New Zealand experienced horendous poverty and the Nia Glassies and Kahuis of this world simply didn't happen. Kiro lives in a fantasy world where the perpetrators of these awful crimes are clearly victims too.
New Zealand doesn't need the talkers like big Cindy, we need people who take action.
Under her position as Childrens Commissioner we have seen more murders of babies than at any other time.
Kiros support for the repeal of section 59 that has stopped parents from lovingly correcting their children's behaviour with a smack and risks more violence in the future as these children brought up under such a regime go uncorrected and run wild without the boundaries of appropriate correction.
This bloated, overpaid, limp wristed Labour Party appointed bureaucratic drone, who clearly only gets exercise above her neck needs to go. To say Cindy is as useless as tits on a bull is being nice to her.
May I suggest Celia Lashlie in her place?
