Many Aborigines are hate filled, bigoted, xenophobic (towards Asians, Africans and Islanders in particular) and racist.

Leigh:

Have you got any evidence to support your claim that: 'Most people don’t care about aborigines and saying sorry to them'? No, I thought not. You pose as the arbitrator of what 'most people' think but, sitting at home in your hate-room, you wouldn't have a clue.

Do you have any facts to support your claim that: 'the “stolen generation” is still a load of rot'? No, you simply parrot Andrew Bolt.

Are there any exceptions to your racist claim that 'aborigines are still dysfunctional whingers and always will be'? I don't expect so: in your jellybrain, all people of a particular race are the same, aren't they?

And do you observe a contradiction in your competing claims that Aboriginals will 'always' be dysfunctional whingers and your prescription about how change will come about for them?

Have you observed that this is the 21st century and racism as blatant as yours is no longer acceptable?

KrissDonaldtheVictimofRacism,

When you whinge (to use Leigh's colourful language) that: 'Many Aborigines are hate filled, bigoted, xenophobic (towards Asians, Africans and Islanders in particular) and racist', do you not see yourself as 'hate filled, bigoted, xenophobic [towards Aboriginals] and racist'?

If you are truly a victim of racism, why on earth would you want to become a perpetrator of racism?

Spikey,

Unfortunately this forum hosts a number of rusted on racists who would choose to suicide before admitting they were in denial about their own racist beliefs. It’s these beliefs that keep hem alive, tells them who they are (or who they think they are not) and they like to prowl around and throw up statements like those above to attract attention to themselves. Yes its very juvenile, annoying and at times astoundingly anti- intellectual. The sad thing is they think its informative, clever and original.

If you can picture Leigh as an impotent lonely old white man too scared to engage with his own neighbourhood let alone communicate with the wonderful diversity of people in the world - you will start to get the picture. They are their own social, cultural, and political prisons.

However, thanks for trying, compassion and a desire to re educate racists by asking them to reflect on their own beliefs /statements is a good starting point.

Cheers

Thanks for your support Rainier. I guess Leigh's gone to bed already.

Wouldn't it be nice if he and his racist friends decided to give it a rest in 2009?

Spikey - Leigh's not a racist, he's an environmentalist. Just ask him.

Actually Rainier, it was a gang of Aboriginal youths that killed Kriss Donald in Glasgow. That's why it's relevant.

Nice article, Stephen. Happy New Year to you, Spikey, Rainier and all the other good guys.
