I, for one, am pleased to see that the govt has moved to do something.
As for any concern for the "traditional owners", I personally have NONE, and with justification.
The blacks are nothing more than transients, they themselves admit to rejecting the idea of "ownership", of anything.
So it goes that if they did not believe in owning anything then, logically they CANNOT be traditional owners.
So I and about another 25 million Aussies would demand not saying that they are or ever were.
It's just another white fella scam which happens to ingratiate the black fella's and another way of the white man to siphon money out of our piggy bank.
Another gripe I have, is this BS that white man has done all this bad stuff to the blacks.
BULLSH!TE!
The blacks should be kissing our feet for landing here and should be celebrating Australia Day as the day they began to live and prosper.
Not give us the sh!ts with lie's and BS about how we,..........I don't actually know what the hell we were accused of, or did bad to them, that was so bad as to give us all the BS over Australia Day.
No they should be grateful to us for turning their pathetic useless lives around and dragging them into a better more prosperous and fulfilled lifestyle.
Instead what do we get?
A bunch of ungrateful backward thinking, selfish, arrogant, demanding lot of self ingratiating, no-hopers, who see themselves as the entitled ones.
The only ones who have actually got off their arses and attempted to do something with their lives are the ones who are not blacks but of mixed blood.
And I don't care who dares decry the fact that these mixed bloods can be grateful to their European parent for their sudden advancement into a higher level of learning, and therefore a higher level of living standards into the twenty first century.
NOT the pure bloods, because the true, and only, Australian Aborigine will be extinct, unless the PURE BLOODS couple up and keep the race alive.

It wasn't that long ago that we were being told that original Australian aborigines had no concept of ownership: that they believed that they belonged to the land. Now, we are hearing that they own the joint; that they were 'nations; that they weren't hunter-gatherers, but sophisticated townies with governmental expertise and agriculture far superior to that of white settlers, who covered up the original brilliant civilisation to enable settlement of the land.

Incidentally, if you are interested in an antidote to Bruce Pascoe's fantasy, get hold of Peter O'Brien's 'Bitter Harvest' to learn how Pascoe misrepresented early explorers' journals, left inconvenient parts out, quoted people who NEVER PUBLISHED anything, and lied to suit his fantasy.

Alan, no point trying to have a rational request answered from you. You wonder why most people posting here don’t take you seriously, pathetic really. Stop being so childish it’s boring.

ttbn, good to hear somebody else telling it like it is.
I don't get as to who chooses what is history and what is not.
Who chooses what is right and what is wrong.
I'm sick of these bastards in high places either doing the bidding of some sick son's of bitches or just plain greedy self imposed dictators pushing laws and rules that are in their own interests, and not in ours.
I keep dreaming of a 'hit squad' that is completely hidden and carries out scum-bag cleansing, in the way we have seen ethnic cleansing in the past, like the Rothschilds and the Bilderberg group, as the first and most important target.
As far back as I can remember, my life here has been one hell of a struggle only to look back and see that ALL my successes have been off-shore.
Australia just kept me and any other forward thinking innovators down to the point of thinking this place is full of lazy idiots, with no self respect or self worth.
Certainly no inner courage, as to be told what to do and how to think, with the only thing they know is to fear the system.
Where-as I challenge it, question it, to no avail.
Try and find an Ombudsman these days?
Good luck!
Anyway check out the story below it is further reinforcement of the evil plans these bastards have in store for us.

Galen: You seem to want my personal details/identity? But when offered a way to achieve that privately, showed your true clours, Be a man and just post your email and current location. St Petersberg perhaps.

I'm not posting my personal details here for the same reason you haven't. Ditto all the other posters.

But if you want to post your email address, may choose to reply to your request when I know what it is? Perhaps we could chat about it over coffee someday?

Good luck, with the bully boy tactics/personal abuse. Never will work on me!

Just the very opposite!
Cheers, Alan B.
