Aborigines Australian rules football lifeline - 05 Jul 07

In the troubled indigenous communities of the Northern Territory, Australian Rules football has become a lifeline to many young men who would otherwise fall into a life of alcohol and substance abuse. New government policies are taking a tough line on the problems in these communities, but some fear the approach will only worsen the situation.

@earlsutton Riiight, and N.America belongs to the Native 'American' tribes, S.America belongs to the Mayans, Africa to the Africans, all of Arabia to the Arabs, all of Asia to the Asians, and all of Europe to the Europeans and so on. Ridiculous, use your head.

@thegreig Yes i agree, but theres one problem. americans killed almost all native americans unfortunately... there is only a minority of them left. which is very sad

[LittleMrPeanut]

[thegreig]

I love the Aboriginal People. They can overcome their issues and be the Great People I know they are. I would do anything for them.
