Only 16% or something of Americans say they're not affiliated with any religion whatsoever. And only 25% of Americans are African Americans. So no need to treat them as some special case. Fool.

Good.

Yeah! Your post is a win for posts that make sense. Or not. You're an idiot.

Because they lived here for 60,000+ years and we came in, as an invading force, and dispossessed them of their land. The least we can do is a brief statement at the start of functions. And the pitiful ranting and raving of an illiterate whinger like you isn't gonna change anything.

Fuckin' Israelis. Bunch of dickheads.

You're an idiot. And so are you.

Yeah they shouldn't be doin that, certainly. Maybe just set out to tell every single one of them that the black Papua New Guineans, Samoans and Micronesians have it on their flags as well.

While I hate the things and anyone who has one is automatically in my bad books, I don't think this is really an argument. There is a fair bit of historical significance with the Southern Cross in Australia, with the Eureka flag and what not. But the nationalist bogans have taken it over...

Yeah! You've really grasped how it all works! Good on ya, retard.

+1 Anonymous = douchebag.

Oh and I live in Manly on the Northern Beaches, and we're not all posh or bogans. Just live in the best damn place in Sydney. (Although you do get a fair few unsavoury characters heading up to Narrabeen and Dee Why. No offense.)

Oh come on you can't seriously believe that. The vast majority of violent criminals are poor, and it just so happens that a lot of Aboriginals and Islanders are in poverty. So they account for a lot of crime. It's not a genetic predisposition, that's absolutely ridiculous. Aborigines never...

yes, i agree that many communities are doomed to collapse. but the thread singled out aboriginal ones as somehow unique in that respect. they have the same chance of thriving as any other community, when they're treated right. which they haven't been since...ever. it's not a cop out at all...

IT'S "BECAUSE". My god why can't you spell because right. You're as bad as the girl's mother naming her "Phylicity".

Nobody is arguing that there isn't a problem in Aboriginal communities. No one is arguing that the state of the welfare system is fine right now. And no one here is not concerned about the issue, however they feel about it. I don't necessarily want more money injected into it, I want the...

You do know that Indigenous people receive 88 cents in health funding per capita for every $1 dollar spent on other Australians? And don't hold me to this but I'm almost certain it's similar for education, it's definitely less aswell.

No, very pretty but just no. I could go on but it's too hot and I'm feeling very lazy. Have you ever actually been to a remote or rural indigenous community? And if so, both a failed one and a thriving one?

Both your first two paragraphs are just wrong. I'm pretty disappointed with that effort tbh. Education and health contribute to stable communites, and employment in stable Aboriginal communities operates like any other. You almost said that there's no link between education, welfare and jobs...

Do you know how little you contribute to threads with your libertarian silliness? You elaborated on my point without even knowing you were, kudos. Like you said, the money shouldn't be put into welfare, but gradually more towards a better administered education and health system in the...

Yeah you idiot, just take away the funding. Let the market do its thing. Which in this case would be an even worse quality of life and disastrous effects. What a disgusting attitude. It's not about "benefiting [presumably economically is what you mean] the commonwealth". It's about trying to...
