Australia Day: when should we celebrate? : Comments

By Russell Grenning, published 19/1/2018

Various suggestions have been made for a new date from some significant event in the World War 11 Pacific campaign or the date (27 May) of the overwhelmingly successful 1967 referendum.

JBowyer... I don't hate the British...Try not to make rubbish up won't you...lol

I just tell the truth! I don't care what your forebears were...You like me still live on stolen lands...The Brits did terrible things to natives everywhere they went...

You are probably C of E also - a Church created so that imbecile King Henry could divorce and organise the murder of two of his 6 wives...lmao

YES! A proud tradition! Isn't the Queen the Head of that Church?

The truth hurts doesn't it...but it isn't bigotry, it's just the facts. Try to learn the difference sometime...lmao

You can live in fairytale land if you like but the truth is out there for all to know and see.

More on what the Brits did to their own... http://otoweb.cloudapp.net/films.html

Or to Islanders in the 60's and early 70's... http://johnpilger.com/videos/stealing-a-nation

It's great your parents brought you out for an education but you were supposed to learn stuff - not ignore it......LMAO

Now back to school you go...This time please listen...lol

The fact that you don't know the difference between the British Government and the British people make you amazingly naive.

So does this mean you are glad the British used us as their nuclear test site? You probably have one of their little glowing embers in you as we type...Do you glow in the dark?...lol

So do you agree with Aussie soldiers not coming home to defend us? So much for your loyalties to Australia.

Your ignorance is astounding! Did I hurt your feelings with the truth?...lol

I bet you didn't know that the aborigine has now been discovered to be one of the first to have inhabited the Americas. We should treasure them!

Here let You Tube educate you... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6IrMjfbh6E

We should be honoring and respecting the aborigines...Not crushing their spirits one more time and every year!

Opinionated, please save your bile and ignorance! I hold people like you in contempt and could not care a less what you think or say. I am just trying to assist you in thinking with logic not hate.
Racist bigots like you think it is OK to be like this if only you pick your targets. However we also bite back, bigot!

There you go again Bowerbird...Ignoring the facts and name calling to hide your ignorance.

Likewise I don't care what an imbecile like you thinks but I will use my posts to at least tell the truth... Maybe you should try the truth for a change...lol

They stole the land from aborigines...It is that simple...

They killed many, many aborigines...It is that simple!

They pretended to be Christian to justify their self proclaimed goodness whilst breaking many Christian values.

The Brits ruled the seas and plundered every country they visited. They were a ruthless conquering pack of thieves.

If you take something that isn't yours - Is that theft? OOPS! Yes it is!

All the religious buildings aren't on consecrated ground...they are on stolen land that can't be consecrated!

People who want Australia Day to stay the 26th January aren't patriots...They are blind fools, too scared to crawl out from under the British yolk and too weak minded and bigoted to support the aborigines.

Look in the mirror buddy...Shamefully weak isn't it?...lmao

Some facts you should know...The First Fleet didn't land on the 26th...It was between the 18th and 20th. They travelled to Sydney Cove arriving on the 26th.

Sir Henry Parkes said when asked what shall we do to celebrate for the aborigines and he reportedly replied..."And remind them that we have robbed them?" He at least in his dishonourable reply knew the truth.

The 26th January wasn't celebrated by all States until 1994...so we got by without it! It is the pro 26ers that are wrong again.

In 1938 Aborigines didn't want to partake in the reenactment so were kept locked up at the stables at Redfern Police Barracks until the re-enactment took place. They then ran away up the beach.

So let's not pretend that this day is worth celebrating...That would be to ignore the facts!

Back to school for you...lol We'll try you in Prep but I think it will be a bit tough for you.

Who cares about the date upsetting a few minority clowns.

Today's indigenous should be grateful the nation was colonised by the British, had it been the French there we be none to gripe today.

If indigenous people don't like the celebration, don't come to the celebrations, pretty bloody simple.

Bowyerbird... It was a joke about the Yolk...lmao So you are short of brains on the humour side also?

Should I explain the joke to you?

Maybe you will get into prep afterall...lmao Nah! Not possible...lol

You simply have no answers when the facts are presented to you and the pathetic know nothing that you are shows out...

So the truth is bile now? Gee we sure didn't get much value when you guys came out probably as 10 pound Poms...lol

So are you speaking here as an Aussie or a Brit with dual citizenship with misguided loyalties?

I understand that you can only name call when presented with facts...You obviously aren't the sharpest tool in the shed or am I yoking...lmao

And good old rocket man Geoff of Perth chimes in with the lesser of two evils comment. Gee Geoff you sure have low standards...lol

All the colonising nations were bad BUT where did the French wipe out the entire native populations GoP?

It's time to change the date just to annoy...Bowyerbird and GoP...lmao

Time to make Oz a better, more caring place by simply choosing a better day to accommodate our aboriginal brothers.

You know to Advance Australia fairly!
