@theinquest Aboriginals are as free to express their culture as anyone else in this country. It's not lack of culture but a lack of respect that has hindered Indigenous advancement. Look at how they burned the Australian flag, that's shame job. I'm not a fan of the flag either but it's disrespectful and childish to burn a national flag. If people feel so strongly that the white man is to blame then they should go live in the bush.

@theinquest I'm Aboriginal and there is no way I would find myself living in subhuman conditions often found in the communities. I've got enough pride and yet humility to accept the realities of this life and get on with it. Why cast your lot in with one side or another? Just be a Human Being.

@theinquest Most aboriginal communities are near third world living standards. And it's because of their own alcohol abuse, lack of self respect and child neglect. It's true, what self respecting human drinks themselves into oblivion and allows their children to vandalise their house? No amount of money or government legislation is going to change what's in the heart. Their is no need for Aboriginals to mistreat themselves.

@theinquest It's not nice but that's how it is. You don't gain anything by it being handed to you even if it's rightfully yours. You have to fight for it and win. Lose and well you see what happens. Aboriginals are free to live as upstanding citizens with jobs and property. If people choose to neglect their own human obligations of living a healthy life and maintaining their homes and communities, then who are they to blame for their problems but themselves.

@theinquest I agree that the past is littered with injustice and even today people are treated unfairly.But my comment about flour sugar and liquor, is a metaphor meaning Aboriginals could have continued to fight but instead they succumbed and began a life dependant on welfare. Yes they were mistreated but by dealing with white settlers they aknowledged defeat and would have to live under the white man's terms. That's life, rights have to be fought for.

@MiccusMaximus The Australia land has been reaped off its minerals i.e diamonds, mining, trees have been lumbered and sold for profits, was this shared with the aborigine people? That's an emphatic NO, but coveted by the white man as always. And you open your filthy mouth to say the aborigine sold themselves for flour, sugar and liquor, You must be out of your mind, They were massacred in their droves, just so the land could be maximized!
-
@MiccusMaximus You are talking from you anus. When the convicts came from Britain to settle on the land, they were not going back they came to steal aborigine land because that's what you pigs are, thieving cunts! The history is there to see, Canada, USA, Australia and parts of Africa was stolen by whites until you were drove out from Africa, you didn't want to leave, crying like babies. The only thing the white man knows how to do is thieve, steal and covet another man's property.

@willythewildwino You need to go back to Britain.

poverty, violence, child abuse and suffering, only the fault of those who commit it.

@rkra0121 your wrong! it's the land of the people...no colour, no race, no religion...equal oppurtunity! it's attitudes like this that causes problems with the current migration to this great land.

@motherlover112233 maybe if they didnt choose to live in the middle of nowhere where there arent even roads then they could have proper schools and jobs. Maybe its time they join the rest of society.
I am not racist, I believe in equality for all races. You apparently believe some races deserve special treatment, if anyone is racist its you
