NZ man killed in Perth brawl

The New Zealand Herald says:A young New Zealand man was killed and two others seriously injured after a savage brawl between Maori and Aborigines in Perth yesterday. Weapons, including a bloody picket and bricks, could be seen strewn across the cul-de-sac following the brutal fight between up to 20 rival Aborigines and Maori who had clashed in a dispute over alcohol earlier in the day.

Local Resident says: “There’s going to be a fair few problems now that a Maori has been killed.”

The Maori Party says:Yep, that trip by Hone Harawira to the Northern Territories had all kinds of benefits, look how much closer our communities are now, and what we’re able to achieve to bridge what few small gaps there are.

Guest Commentator Homer Simpson says: Ah, beer. The cause of, and the solution to, all of life’s problems.

Cliff Notes’ News Commentary Team says:It’s not racism if the fight’s between minorities.
