[revolutionarybuffalo]

uh? how racist can u be?

[mscathrdr]

I love the guy pulling that appaling sign down!

[bririer]

I agree revolutionarybuffalo, racism at it's ugliest form

[bririer]

Big deal MissEllen79, you've been to Indigenous communes. Gee like i haven't seen stuff like that happen in other communities of non-indigenous people. People always pick out the minority. Do you know the results so far of the intervention? In my opinion i think it would be safer to live there than in suburbia where i am now! All i can add is get educated on Indigenous history and indigenous affairs before you make nasty accusations. There is no need for hate.

[bririer]

Yes, there "are plenty of distitute minority in Australia", but there are services out there for them to get help. Indigenous Australians are the overall minority in this country. The government made Indigenous Australians become dependant on them, then the government wants Indigenous Australians to be independant but on their terms. WTF! How can people treat another human being like that. It is 2008 for crying out loud. With attitudes like yours no wonder this country is in disarry,

MissEllen79,

You are a racist. How dare you refer to Indigenous Australians as "Abo's". Could you please post where you got your information from about how "the government spend billions on aboriginal housing". I'd be very interested to read that. You need to be educated and properly informed about indigenous affairs before you start making judgements. I know that it is your opinion, but before you make an opinion make sure you can back it up!

[MissEllen79]

Yes, this video has been a VERY ONE SIDED outlook on the real issues of this never ending aboriginal and hman rights excuse and son and so forth. I do stand for human rights very much, I also stand for the fact that this type of issue should never be allowed to be viewed only one-sided. Aborigines own most of the Australian land still, no one is trying to take that away from them. They also need help, nothing wrong with that. But it's up to them to stay on the right path and not the rest of us!

[MissEllen79]

Another thing, what do you think the government should do? What else? I've been to aboriginal communes and seen so much crap going on with men, women, and especially children. Babies being left unsupervised,drunk mother having domestic fight in fron of her kids, people shouting at each other on the street and also in front of children. Is this normal? Hey, not all of the aboriginals are like these but a lot of them are and it need sto be stopped, there needs to be intervention. Stop denying.

[MissEllen79]

The government spend billions on aboriginal housing which gets trashed by the end of that month anyway, then they keep on complaining for more. Hey, if you want a better life you need to make it happen yourself! There are plenty of distitute minority in Australia who would love this help too you know. Stop this bullshit of constant wingeing. A lot of abos spend their money not on food or basic needs but alcohol and drugs and they still blame the government! If you cant help ypurself, no one can
