So who decides ‘what’s right’?

Re: Jim Bunny's Page 2 column ‘Striking a blow for what's right' (The Weekend Sun, January 27).

My question is who decides ‘what's right?'.

Funny Bunny's comments, in my view, are clearly racially provocative.

To dispute his comments, should I travel from Whitianga to Wellington via Kopu/Hikuai highway (before it was closed) through Matamata, I will travel through at least 50 villages, towns and areas with Maori names. Should I travel through Whangamata and Tauranga to reach Wellington, I go through about 42 villages, towns and areas to reach Wellington.

Has Jim Bunny ever heard anyone complaining about those names? I never have.

Silly Bunny's final paragraph wishing that the sooner the ‘older generation' (my term of referring to wise persons) along with their ‘entrenched views' shuffle off this mortal coil is in my view appalling, unwise and racially biased.

Clearly Jim Bunny is unable to research all of NZ's written history but would prefer to believe the ‘created and creative' cultural verbal history.
