[MLzammo]

@EpicHayden37 this isnt the place for jokes

[EpicHayden37]

[MLzammo]

[EpicHayden37]

@MLzammo, I don't like it xD

[MrChill0519]

George was an amazing man, I wish the rest of the Australian population had his views. Apologies if I'm using his name out of turn, I know that many native people don't speak of the departed by name

[hyperborea2north]

What does that mean? I never mentioned whitefellas in my last comment.

[sharvie73]

And Anu actually comes from an Island on the New Guinea side of the border so is not an Indigenous Australian but an Indigenous new guinea person. Check it out.

[mxzooman]

Are you out of mind ...Where did you get that from ? there was no white fellas the nes exists where brought by shiploads (convicts) etc.

[Larryandersen39]

@mxzooman Don't know your history that well ,then do ya ...!

[zaccarroll72]

how and when did george die i,m saddened to hear this.

[dildoid189]

lung cancer, he was 50 yrs of age and passed last year if I remember correctly- he sang with heartfelt sincerity don't you think? much loved.......

[sharvie73]

It was actually bone cancer in 2007. I was in Darwin studying at the time it was all over the news papers and radio. Apparently the funeral was attended by all the midnight oil members also.

[dildoid189]

ha ha ha, not violent hey? shitful brains? degenerate white bum? no, not violent at all. you wouldn't know what colour i am, you silly person. get a job, get a life , you tell lies. good luck to you, have another drink. relax and stop talking shit. you are the problem, you have no solution but to pity yourself, fool.

[dildoid189]
