Windschuttle and the Stolen Generations : Comments

By Cameron Raynes, published 19/3/2010

The SA State Children’s Council's 'unequivocal statement' clearly shows its intention was to 'put an end to Aboriginality'.

Foxy on; ‘Threatened by gays;’

If our intentions aren't just to win the game, then
we can feel good that we've spoken our mind
without malice or anger but just from the
depths of our truth.

…but we shouldn't forget our own wisdom because of the
fear that we'll lose something. What's more important?
Losing our face , or losing our integrity?

…and on this thread;

Dear Joe (Loudmouth),

Why are you suggesting another thread to me?

Was it something I wrote - that you found
offensive?

I'd like to know the reason for your
remark.

Dear Joe (Loudmouth),

My apologies.

I went and read that particular thread
and now I get it!

Just ignore my previous post.

And by the way - Thanks!

Leigh, your comment is well contrasted by the post immediately above it.

To continue counter of the bigoted allegations of you and your cohorts, anyone observing your posts over time, cannot fail to observe definition of your contributions as those of a disturbed, malevolent, racistly bigoted, airhead.

Your dysfunctionally myopic, sycophantic, attitudes are observed those identified with the imbalanced irrelevance of the extreme right murdochrity in this country. Noone reasonable is interested in the size of your redneck boyfriends’ kahunas. It is a colonially bigoted sexist attitude and construct.

In fact, so extreme is such function observed, it could be reasonably suggested that if you possessed a companion brain it would be very lonely. It is obviously why you are unable to respond to reasonable questions I put to you, synonomous of the known bullying tactic of racist bigots, ‘if you can’t beat em,’ bash em.’

Contrary to your racist dogma, you do not own Australia, you retain no right to that parasitic claim, as you have no right to colonial ownership of our planet. In fact you are readily observed with difficulty securing ownership of an intellect. ‘Your country, your rules?’ BS, piss off you venal moron!

I guess that sets a new level in animosity on OLO and there I was thinking all the passion was in AGW dueling.

I stand corrected, again.

Dear Ngarmada,
When you rode with the Mongrel Mob did you fall off your tricycle without wearing your helmet and suffer permanent brain damage?
Otherwise how does one explain your creative writing eg "disturbed, malevolent, racistly bigoted, airhead", "Noone reasonable is interested in the size of your redneck boyfriends’ kahunas “ and “BS, piss off you venal moron!” You’ll win that Nobel Prize for literature for sure.

Perhaps blairbar, and thanks for the compliment. However, it is assured, that with observation of the mechanical rotation of cooperative defence, racist bigots on this site demonstrate ad nauseum, and the moronic intellect consistent of such mindset, for such awards of excellence, you may only ever be an observer.

There is really no reason to be arguing about this subject.

The fact that not one court of law - except in South Australia in the case of Trevorrow - has ever found FOR people claiming to be stolen. Even in the case of Trevorrow, the Crown Solicitor advised the Government that they had a good case to appeal; unfortunately the poor fellow died before the appeal got to court, and the government decided against reclaiming the awarded money from his relatives; perhaps because Mr.Trevorrow wasn't able to make contact with his family until he was well into middle-age. He thought that they were all dead.

Mr. Trevorrow deserved sympathy after his so-called forced removal from his family because it seems that he was mislead by unknown persons into thinking that his family was dead after he reached the age of personal responsibility.

However, the “stolen generation” remains a myth. Except for the one instance in SA, and learned legal opinion advised that there were grounds for appealing that.

Another well known, and previously respected, South Australian also claimed to be ‘stolen’; that claim has been proved wrong: her uncle handed her over to authorities because he could not care for her for various reasons.

The last case to be thrown out was the one forced on the courts by the Cubillos in the Northern Territory. It’s doubtful that there well be any more legal claims in the name of the totally discredited ‘stolen generation’.

This is NOT address to you, Ngarmada, because you don’t want to listen to a ‘racist’. I would just like to thank you for proving that your are everything I said you were, and more. You are a nasty piece of work.

I will not be pissing off.

How many people does it take for a generation to be "stolen" ..?

I'm not trying to be cute, just trying to understand the metrics.

I would suspect an objective observer would guess at thousands, if not tens of thousands, after all the phrase a "generation" is not really a throw away line .. is it?

The implication is that it is a huge number, and yet all we seem to have uncovered so far in this line of comments is less than one handful .. even if we are generous for the purpose of debate and grant the author all he can so far muster (untested mind you, no one seems to have read or heard of his book)

When we talk about a generation of youths killed in the Punjub during the troubles decades ago .. it was tens of thousands. Does this "generation we allude to just comprise of several.

Is the author trying to discredit Windshuttle's writings that throw doubt on a "stolen generation" on a mere handful, then if that's the case, it still does not bring Windshuttle's writing undone.

In AGW, for instance, a "few mistakes by the IPCC" evidently does not bring undone their report or the message. It would be hypocritical to say this does what other examples, the same people, defend, surely.

Neither does this author make the case against Windshuttle, who may indeed have missed a few here and there, but so what, his point is that it was not a "generation" that was "stolen".

There was no organized government policy to do so, if a few individuals did it, then they are criminals, fair and square, but you can't label all current Australian's with a racist label based on a few bad eggs, can you?

I'm not for or against Windshuttle or the author, but I do think you would need many more than a few cases to discredit Windshuttle. It's tragic for the author who has spent many hundreds of hours and seemingly upset the government on the way, that all he can muster is but a few.
