Many years ago on the train to Sydney Central, some mid teen Aboriginal lads heading in from W.Syd. Said G'day what's up? They said they were going into Broadway to pick a fight with some white gangs. Probably were. That was that.

He was accompanied by his brother-in-law Grasientus.
Remember how they encounter Badvoc, leader of the local tribe of Britons, and his henchmen Mungo and Blag.
Now that's history.

Didn't the Romans win?
Aulus Paulinus - 0
Badvoc - 0
Damn, that's right, it was a draw.

Just what Australia needs - more racism.
PB you've been living in Australia long anough to know that "abos" is a very derogatory term. Why don't you go and post on the USA forum about "niggers" as well. I'm disgusted by your attitude.
Aborigines have been mistreated, marginalized and oppressed ever since the British first arrived. They were hunted for sport and poisoned like animals to clear them off their traditional (fertile) lands. They had no legal rights to any land because of the concept of terra nullius - that Australia was "uninhabited by humans". Aborigines couldn't even vote until 1967. They're one of the most demoralized races on earth. It's no wonder they have such huge social problems now. It says a lot about you that you would complain about them trying to get reparations. Bet you must have been outraged by the Mabo decision.

chch,You sound like another one of the "Armchair Experts"that knows everything about Aboriginals whilst never really seen them,except on some ABC-TV apologist show that because people are white they should take the blame for all the ills of the world.
Remember Hindmarsh Island fiasco?Who was conning who???
Where does ATSIC money go?Who CONTROLS ATSIC and the millions of dollars???
I have worked in outback and when I first went it was with an open mind on the white/black troubles and didn't take long to work out who were the trouble makers etc.
As long as people living in their safe surburbia look through rose coloured glasses tut tuting on how the evil whites treat the aboriginals,nothing will change,probably with more money thrown at them and then squandered by their own people-but hey thats whiteys fault isn't it?

I've talked with several "stolen children". No doubts that much money is wasted. What do you propose?

Sorry you have me wrong I am pointing out the attitude to them in Australia , the Aussies have treated them worse after federation than before it.
We all have derogatory terms here mine is Pom , the thing is an Abo only knows he hates white men not who has helped or who has not.

Federation put power in the hands of the incomers who grasped land and took away rights.

True though I do wonder if Australia was still ruled from the UK if the Abos would have been given more power like the handing over of the Africian countries to those who rightfully had them first.
