The Stolen Generation is a term used to describe the Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, who were removed from their families by Australian government agencies and church missions, under various state acts of parliament, denying the rights of parents and making all Aboriginal children wards of the state, between approximately 1869 and 1969. The policy typically involved the removal of children into internment camps, orphanages and other institutions.

haha fucking british people ......... Australia is the country of the aborigines. British (White People) should go to England and not to australia or amerika
This is a joke, these children were not stolen.......they were taken from parents who could not take care of their children......most lived in utter poverty
You saved them, and civilized those people, who, otherwise, would be dancing around rocks and worshiping inanimate objects.
I know my country would go crazy, even under our our Kenyan-Muslim socialist dictator Obama, if there was an apology for bring these people to our land, so they could reap the benefits of technological advancements.
well a blackman is your president...make him quit tomorrow if you can! And if you can´t cry me a riverrrr.....wait-a-minute...w asn´t that a song by Justin Timberlake?...cry me a river....yeah I can feel your river flowing down your white KKK face. One advice bro...if can´t change accept it. Obama, your black ruler, stays till atleast 2012.His decisions shall influece, if not control the lives of every american...including you and your tea partyferians
Australia is a usa & england wannabe.Australia is a creepy little backwater.Its riches & wealth are not from hardwork its from minerals such as uranium,coal etc that belongs to the Aboriginals.Australians are lazy,who spend their time making fun af the Aboriginals.Creepy backwater I tell u.
most of them were irish immigrants that had their land taken off them,murdered,raped,tortured and starved they were forced from their place of birth all because they were irish,no different and as a matter of fact their plight was harder than that of the aboriginal.
irish people were treated a lot worse than aboriginals.
you just have a chip on your shoulder through your religion,the nation of peace that murdered the house of the prophet(s.a.w)then claim to be good muslims.
What happened to these children, parents, people is absolutely disgusting. Can you hold a nation to responsibilty to something that happened generations ago?
The apology was the right thing to do & meant a hell of alot to the Aboriginal people & the rest of Australia as a whole.
There was meaning behind those words, & for those that say he didn't sound actually sorry? Did you not see the crowd outside? The apology wasn't just from him as a person. It was from all of us.

Do not apologize, Australians did no wrong.
You saved them, and civilized those people, who, otherwise, would be dancing around rocks and worshiping inanimate objects.

lay off the angel dust and stick to the salsa.

He's a politician and he took a big step, the right step, in apologising.
Some people will never be happy.
