There is no place for a stone-age culture in the modern world. From the moment civilization finds them, primitive people are doomed.

Thanks to white, anti-assimilation guilt-trippers and social engineers, the demise of Australian indigenous people has been, and continues to be, a long, drawn out process, with indigenes paying the price so that white prigs can feel good.

No matter how much whiteys who think it’s cute having a living anthropological museum, or black self-serving activists and lefty politicians, beat up indigenous problems and blame everyone else for those problems, nothing will change.

The only solution is to rescue people young enough to respond to education and life-skill training in the wider community. If that’s still called “stealing” by the white wimps and black political activists, stiff cheese - some women living in remote communities in SA actively encourage it. It gives kids a chance, and it keeps the girls away from the old men

A wonderful example of ,"How to write Melodrama in ten easy lessons".
People like this author will persist in trying to keep Aboriginals from gaining a lifestyle with dignity , independence and choice.
Children of aboriginal descent deserve to to do better than living in some backward camp at the mercy of the elder men of the tribe.
White children would never be permitted to be reared in syuch a way, why should non white children be given no chance? That is total discrimination.

redneck, you keep citing authors without names, research without provenance, facts without proof. If you're such a highly intelligent white man why don't you use a more scientific approach to prop up your redneck arguments? Is it because you are just barely literate, and not educated? Or is it because your momma (or is it your older sister?)never showed you how

Johnj and spouse,

The sentiments you express show many are on the right track. Realism backed by fact, awareness and sensitivity. Absolutely no condescending manner or blame, just an acknowledgement with an obvious concern. I see those attitudes in many many Australians and it gives those who really do care great heart.

To Rainier;

So, Leigh is long overdue for a frontal lobotomy? You've had yours done already, I presume? Or is the lack of brain cells in your case due to petrol sniffing?

I don't really know why Leigh, Redneck, Mickijo and other such contributors even bother to try to reason with ratbags like Rancitas, Ash, Marilyn Shepherd and all the other inhabitants of Fairyland. They are beyond reason, as all zealots are.

The OLO forum is far and away the most elaborate and technically elegant site for people to have their say. It's a shame that so much of its content, both at the article and comments level comes from the bleeding heart left-wing loonies, such as Donna Jacobs Sife.

Her current article is a contrived piece of "creative" garbage, and makes me want to throw up. She finishes off with - "And the greatest sorrow of all is the loss of the knowledge we so desperately need to save this earth of ours. To save ourselves”.

Savage Pencil, you ask what is this "knowledge"? Now, where are your manners? That is a leading question, one that you shouldn't ask of a bleeding heart like Donna. That sentence is from the same grab-bag of pompous and vacuous statements as "jail is not answer", "war is not the answer", or the benefits of the "diversity of multiculturalism".The "answers" in all such instances are obviously self-evident to the morally enlightened minority, and need no further explanation.

Zorro

I've met Rainier and if you think he has had a frontal lobotomy then I'd like to have one just like his too.

Oh and for the record I'd be as far left as Margaret Thatcher or Ronnie Reagan.
