Should Matarki Be A Holiday?
Should Matariki Be A Holiday?
As you saw in my earlier information. I gave reasons why Matariki should be a holiday. Matariki has an important significance to Maori culture. New Zealand's original culture was Maori. We should be celebrating Matariki because it is something that a lot of people celebrate in this country.
I gave many reasons earlier why Matariki should be a holiday. Matariki is an important day for Maori culture. It celebrates Maori beliefs. Due to it not being a holiday a lot of people have not been able to celebrate it. If it were a holiday many families all over the country would be able to celebrate.
There were many reasons given previously. On why Matariki is important. By now you should understand why Matariki should be a holiday. Matariki is the sign of a new year. It shows if farms will be bountiful or empty. Matariki is a sign to all the people in NZ. Not only is it beautiful but it means a lot to the people of NZ.
I hope you can give me your opinion on why Matariki should be a holiday, As I have said previously Matariki is really important, Matariki is a great thing. Even if I don’t celebrate it I understand the importance of the stars called Matariki. In my personal opinion I think Matariki should be a holiday and I hope you think so too.

Argumentation Writing
Argumentation Writing - Introduction
It was a huge mistake! Giving police weapons was a poor decision. No one understood the importance of the decisions that the kiwis made. How could people have done something like this. Weapons have been given to people who may be corrupt. We cannot trust them. After everything that has harmed NZ, People still give weapons as if it is a plaything.
If police are supposed to protect and serve. Why do they kill and curse? Police are supposed to be people of justice, but why have I never seen one police officer carry out justice once.
Earlier I gave reasons why guns are not relevant. Guns strike fear into the hearts of many people and are tools of violence. A lot of people have panicked and screamed due to seeing a gun, this causes misunderstandings, false accusations and accidental deaths. In America there are countless numbers of deaths due to being frightened, they have been killed with their own weapons.
Kiwis do not carry guns for a reason. We believe that guns will always lead to violence. Guns are tools that cause harm.Last year there was a mosque shooting. That wouldn't have been possible if those men didn't buy any guns. Guns should have been years ago.
Police should learn martial arts. Weapons always lead to violence. Sometimes there is death. Learning self defense techniques should be a qualification, to become a police officer. There was a lady that assaulted a police officer. She used his own taser against him. But if she was holding a gun he would have been dead. If he knew self defense he could have chosen to repel her.
Weapons should only be used as a last resort. Such as terrorist attacks and so forth. Weapons are weapons of destruction. They are bad things. That is why police should not have them.If weapons were a normal thing for police there would be death for no reason. As an example I chose the case of george Floyd. You never know if the cop is corrupt or racist. Police could also abuse there power.
