We Fix This The Iraqi Way

Source- Dominion Post Letter to the EditorThe Thugs Have Arrived: Source- Dominion Post Letter to the Editor

I spotted this Letter to the Editor in the Dominion Post last week (May 17, 2006). The writer's elderly mother, involved in a prang with an Iraqi in Wellington had been threatened by the man.

"I am f...king Iraqi!" he screamed. I know where your mother f... live and we fix this the Iraqi way."

Personally, I am disturbed that the Iraqi feels he can "fix this the Iraqi way" (the mind boggles), in New Zealand. This is not Iraq. We have a NZ way of fixing cars. Insurance. Hopefully, after the letter's been published, hopefully the Iraqi had a nice visit from the police and immigration. Except, somehow I don't think so. The NZ way also used to be not tolerating this sort of behaviour. Now I don't know what the NZ way is anymore, beside insurance and hoping people like the Iraqi calm down, gain some perspective and even phone up and apologise.
