Did you even read it? Clearly not. Try again and try not to act so tough. This is a blog, not a soccer game, mate.

Why not tell us that Maori didn’t eat people too.

I mean, all we Maori who care about out Whakapapa (Genealogy) have a careful oral record going back 800 years which not only includes ancestors who were eaten on being defeated, but the names of the primary eaters in each case, plus records those happy cases where it was our ancestor winning the fight and having the meal . . . but you obviously want to re-write the records.

Hey, you are not alone, some Maori academics want to do it too.

Good luck re-writing history, try to make it a less dry read this time?. 😉

a manger full of animal shit

Psst.. a manger, as its name implies, is a rack for holding animal feed (usually hay), not animal waste.
