Are Aboriginals and Aboriginal culture of any benefit to the Australian society?

Bugger, we have an answer. The mighty CD , who is so wise and intelligent that we just have to believe him without links or any evidence. And he is an economic refuge to Australia so he must know everything LMAO

 

The way they smash down the (*)(*)(*)(*) and ice we'll be rid of them soon enough.

I mean we've had to close Abo only schools, subject to millions in funding, because no one went, but listen to them blather on about "we need education".

I the same breath we spend millions on new welfare/abuse centers.

 

This is only the tip of the ice berg in terms of free speech, which it looks as though you can't wait to take full advantage of lol! Maybe it is a good thing, maybe not! Good in terms of exposing our under belly and dealing with it but bad in terms of harmony and security in hopefully the short term.

 

Why not come to WA and I will show you just the opposite. All you state is wishful thinking.....

Zoom in and you will see how much of rehabilitation is done, after 15 years closure.....

Reading this you'd think they all live in reservations or something - they mostly live in regional rather than remote areas. Small towns. We don't have 5 big cities in a 300km radius like they do in Europe and the US - we have a city, then nothing but towns for several hundred kilometers. The closest city to mine is 2700km away. So between these cities there's a lot of space for small towns along the coast. A lot of Aboriginals live in these areas, as well as further inland.

As for the OP - Aboriginals are seen somewhat poorly, but no worse than blacks are in the United States. They are stereotyped because they have greater crime, lower income, and do worse in school - but there's not very much in the way of coercive state action. There's no slavery, forced segregation, or anything like that. They can vote.

But yeah, if a group of cheaply clothed Aboriginal teenagers walk past the average Australian they'll get a second look.

 

So? 15 years is nothing, give it another fifteen and all the native vegetation will have grown back. Looks to me like they provided some improvements to the natural state of the land by way of some small lakes. And who is to say BHP is not planning to re-open the mine in the future.

 

Oh how lovely, yes there are some lovely small lakes in the Hunter region, I will collect some water from them, wearing the appropriate clothing so I do not get contaminated, and send it to you for your wife and children to drink. Get real AM, they don't want to spend one more cent then they have to, they do make it look good though, they are after all the most deceitful businessmen.

 

This is my point exactly. When some Aboriginal people decided they wanted to live in rural outback communities, the Australian tax payers financially provided them with every conceivable facility - new homes, schools, medical clinics and shops.

After ten years living a "so-called" traditional Aboriginal lifestyle away and seperate from Australian culture, the Aboriginal people themselves, turned these communities into slums and shanty-towns. The Aboriginal people themselves stopped educating their own children, and keeping their children medically healthy in favour of becoming drug addicts and alcoholics.

They choose to reside in these remote communities, because they could guzzle grog and sniff petrol from daylight to dusk, and didn't think there was going to be any longterm recourse or repercussions to "their" lifestyle choice, because the Australian tax payers were always going to be there to pick up the financial tab for these poor hard-done-by Aboriginal people. Aboriginals know, as soon as they mention the words ""discrimination" or "racism" the gutless Australian Governments and some Australian people run with their tails between their legs.

How much more money and time is going to be squandered and wasted on trying to help a group of people who don't want to help themsleves, and who only use Australians sympathy and empathy against Australians, when it suits an Aboriginal agenda.

I laugh to myself when I hear these Aboriginals publiclly state they are: "The Aboriginal People" not Australians, but when Australian awards are handed out; like the "Australian of the Year" these so-called Aboriginal people are the first ones in line to accept the "Australian of the Year" awards. Bit hypocritical isn't it, accepting an Australian of the Year award, when you don't consider yourself to be an Australian?

Aboriginals are not streotyped because of crime, lower income or education. There simply is more crime, lower income and less education among Aboriginal people than Australians. Sterotyping is only inaccurate if the facts don't fit the model, and in the case of Aboriginal participation in higher rates of crime, lower income and less education, the facts DO fit the model.

 

Contaminated with what? I thought there were only coal mines in the Hunter Valley.

 

Oh yes that's true, so where do I send your bottled "mineral" water to?

 

No link?

 

The suicide rate is skyrocketing where i live, most blame ice.

Victroia closed down 4 Abo only school, no one went, millions of $$ down the drain.

Yet up here they praise the opening of a new welfare/sexual-alcohol-drug abuse center.

This is the under belly, this is what Abo's are dealing with. Too much blame YT blame this blame that.

Get off your lazy arses and stop the blame game.

 

That is the problem. What appears to be lakes, is acid fluids.....

 

Just like their outback community settlements. They turned them into slums and shanty-towns because they wanted to live traditional Aboriginal lifestyles, but their children stopped being educated and medically treated because they destroyed all the facilities - then they blamed the Australian people for everything that went wrong. Maybe instead of blaming Australians for everything that goes wrong within their own culture, they should be showing a little more gratutide that they were not all hunted down and exterminated under the Australian Flora & Fauna Act; considering they were legally considered pests & vermin under this Act.

 

I would hope you're kidding.
They mastered Australia,before Brits sent their castoffs over there.
Straya!

 

Tony Abbotts ancestors almost succeeded, now he has come to do his bit!

POME landholders took to putting arsenic into flour and giving it to the tribe.

Early Australian settlers got on with the blacks but the POME politicians forced upon them saw it as their job to exterminate them.

Lets wipe all not born Australian, and see how the mood changes!

 

Aboriginals are people, not pieces of dog turd like PM Abbott treats them!

 

Interesting British mentality Abbott has, it not change from the early years when wiping out the blacks was the way to go, opened up the way for the Chinese to come and did up our land and export it to China, go home Abbott you POME mongrel!

 

What are you on about?
All Aussies (for the last 220 years) or the ones who think they are are immigrants.
Among them are some terrible red necks and bogans, undeniable.
That includes our current PM, a late settler.
Some late settlers however are beautiful people, some not.

Incorrect. Anthony John Abbott was born and remains a British citizen. He refuses to enunciate his British Citizenship, seeing Australia as a second rate country not deserving of his sworn loyalty.

 

Give it up, or go digging deeper, but as it stands;

Ninemsn reported it had contacted the Prime Minister's Office and the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet seeking confirmation that Mr Abbott has renounced his British Citizenship.

After a three-hour wait, the office replied with this single-sentence statement:

"The Prime Minister is an Australian citizen and does not hold citizenship of any other country."

You don't think the ALP have exhausted this avenue? They'd kill for an angle like this.

 

Notice the reply skips the question and provides a political answer, No answer Mr Abbott has renounced his British Citizenship and did so on......

An investigation carried by the Australian people took all the right steps and made all the right enquires, and Parliament House come back with, the record (enunciation) cannot be found or does not exist!

Notice Abbott not go to England nor take the Australian salute! Perhaps he just hates England and Australian Diggers, or he's a lying little POME mongrel.

 

You still like this guy after all he did or better not did to our great country?
I think he has proven over and over again, he is an empty blue eyed white racist frickin weirdo.
The first human being having lived for 200 years, according to his mindset...

To the second human being the first probably looked that old!!!

 

Yes its a hard one, definitely not Aussie, parades fear and runs, racist nah there only one race him, weirdo speaks for itself -cane toad tongue line up at reporter and spaced off, no Australian record he not a Pome can be found!

England has its own records, available to Anthony John Abbott! Could this be causing his evasion of honesty? He's gone to ground, sent out a couple messengers on Ministers errand, hint hint.
