Natives raging against the system

tangata whenua had forgiven the captain and first officer

we would rather direct our anger and rage at the system that allowed this to happen

We do not however forgive the system that may allow this to happen

Obviously the natives are trying to fry bigger fish raging against 'the system'.

No apology given to New Zealanders in mitigation, just some locals, who have had a talk with the crew in the name of 'restorative justice'. More commonly known as greasing palms, probably with taxpayer koha.

The locals care nothing about the crew in the dock having failed to comply with "basic navigation practices". The stench of an upcoming handout is overbearing.
