That’s Maori Priest Irrarangi Tiakiawa, keeper of secret Maori martial arts techniques, including death strokes:
“I think this (death point striking) art should die. It is too evil for today’s society. I once witnessed my grandfather having an argument with another man and the other man was in the wrong, so my grandfather just got up and struck him with one finger to one point and the man died… “
The interview is interesting, and includes what to do if confronted by a Maori showing his war face:
1. Stand still. If you run you’re gonna get hurt.
2. The warrior will likely throw something down in front of you. If you don’t pick it up and hand it back to him you’re gonna get hurt.
3. Don’t fight. If you do you’re gonna get killed.
Fortunately, you’re unlikely to encounter a Maori warrior unless you’re in New Zealand, but now you know how to react and you can live to enjoy another Overnight Open Thread.

How do illegals of any stripe help the LA economy?
I guess maybe by letting local business owners break the law by paying them far less than minimum wage?
Or is it by them working here and sending a bunch of their little tiny cash flow back home?
Or is it when they flood the local emergency rooms for non-emergencies like regular healthcare?
Or is it when they drive around without a licence and auto insurance then get into an accident?

I’m sorry if the facts hurt them but the tipping point has come with this economy.I am surprised at support from other groups, like Black Americans.

If “confronted by a Maori showing his war face” I have recourse to my own little “finger of death,” also known as the .44 magnum. A bullet through the center of his forehead will likely put an end to his fearsome “war face” and related neolithic shenanigans. I know we can never hope to compete with the Maori in the arts of tattoo or wood carving, but I trust we can hold our own in the realm of battle technology.

It would be a mystery to him. He stated though without reservation, that
the concept does not exist. Even when he was proven wrong, he just said that it does not apply.
He has a vapid mentality.
When the emails got outed from the East Anglia CRU, he said that they were gotten criminally & forbade anyone to post them.
Then he proceeded to cherry pick & release what he wanted known.
@ RIX:
I think Snowball must think that a thesis is nothing more than a term paper with a thyroid condition. In fact, a thesis is HUGE, hundreds of pages, including annotations and research. Not only that, it requires an oral defense before a professorial panel. You don’t do that for, say, 30 pages of opinion.
He sure as hell could NOT have read it in the small amount of time it was available. Even if he printed it, he’d still be reading it. Unless he’s now claiming superhuman reading powers.
And yet he claims with certainty that Kagan does not support Socialism
in her thesis.
