Wow mate, sounds like you know a lot more than me.
For what its worth, I have worked and lived with Aboriginal people for most of my working life. I've seen the worst and best of things and everything in between. But in the end, the people I have come to call family are no different to you or I.
It doesn't matter mate, I have met a lot of people with your attitude over the years and its ugly and ill-informed and downright mean.
I feel sad for you mate that you have to carry this hate with you wherever you go.
^^^^You think you know who and what I am based on what?
P.S. Spare me your pity or sorrow. I am quite comfortable with myself.
I think Julia might actually be quite tough. Can you imagine going to work every day and pretending to be someone that you are not![]()
It would be awful[}:)]
We all finished whinging about who was here first, who stole what from which mob and wont give it back,? cos the topic heading is:
"Is the PM a coward?"
Get back on topic for goodness sake. You want to have a sledge fest, start your own topic, and respect Mr Floats original topic. ![]()
I have changed my mind. She is a coward. A big fat coward.
She has not ever mentioned to the Chinese that their attempts to melt the polar ice caps and then fly the planet earth out of orbit around the sun to find another star is un-Australian. Only Razzamatazzinator is willing to tackle this tricky internationally sensitive diplomatic issue.
And she has never been up to Ningaloo to hold a community forum with the goats to let them know just how unpopular their 'pro-goat within a marine park' stance is, and how the turtles vote too.
And, she has not visited northern NSW, sat on a throne on the river bank and ordered the floods and rain back to where it came from and ushered in a summer of seabreezes.
What a frigging whooss. If I was allowed to vote I would seriously consider voting for somebody else.
Yes, I think Gillard is a coward. She is too cowardly to hold referendums on important issues and she is too cowardly to hold an election so we can get rid of her.
I do not think she is a coward. I think she is a sociopath or a psychopath, whatever, Like a lot of the bastards in high positions, she has no conscience.
The sad thing is is that the majority of everyday Australians mistake this for being tough and put them on pedestals and positions of power,
It is not being tough, it is simple a lack of conscience
Why go to the trouble of the dangerous boat trip etc.
As you say:- Just front up to your nearset immigration office and say
"I'm an [insert nationality hereAustralian] national and I request asylum". No probs.
If you are referring to the tent embassy thing is that all you could get out of that? Her security detail would make all decisions about that and I daresay she would simply follow any recommendations. She would be foolish if she did not.
What about the atrocious behaviour of the tent embassy people. Militant white blackfellas that live in canberra?
At what point does the past become the past? Will the 1/50th aboriginal in 2150 still be damanding something? Am I entitled to something from the Romans?
