Therefore a male with a similar tattoo (of any kind whether ta moko or not) does not have this issue. <br /><br />Toon<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770341086445997547.post-77065631748634413692013-06-07T11:17:49.509+12:002013-06-07T11:17:49.509+12:00Air New Zealand as a private employer has the righ...Air New Zealand as a private employer has the right not to hire someone, their reason maybe awful and stupid, but it's their right.Brett Dalehttp://mediasportandotherrantings.blogspot.conoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8770341086445997547.post-75796838578207117342013-06-07T07:51:07.418+12:002013-06-07T07:51:07.418+12:00I have read a bit of NZ history, especially after ...I have read a bit of NZ history, especially after I heard things from revisionists I felt were incorrect.
