They are gone, so that means more government money needed to get more right?

I'm sorry to say it but that sort of crap is neither informed or helpful. Wild assumptions that are designed to do nothing but stir up needless rhetoric. You're better than that. These people like many others have suffered a theft which is always upsetting and it matters not the race/colour or creed of victim or perpetrator, theft is theft and is distressing so have a heart.

You are a cynic.............and that's a good thing!. But really...GONE? How can a couple of Waka go missing, let alone STAY missing. The market for these must be extremely small. What sort of criminal steals a bloody waka? let alone two . Moronic!
