Woked in fright: the brief banning of Fawlty Towers : Comments

By Binoy Kampmark, published 15/6/2020

Floyd's death has propelled a movement that has capitalised on a publicised event of police brutality in the United States to re-order matters and sort out grievance across the board.

point well taken.

Who are the protesters aiming their scorn at? I think the answer is, those wise and sensible not participating in the tantrumonious exhibition of spoilt children.

Altrav asked;
WHY IS IT THAT THE NUMBER OF BLACKS IN JAIL ARE MANY TIMES MORE THAN THE WHITES?

There is an answer, but it is too much non PC & "YOU CAN'T SAY THAT !"

Watch Sky News tonight at 8PM. It won't provide the answer you are
looking for as those that know cannot say and even Sky News after dark are too frightened.

Bazz, I don't know what to believe any more.
Apparently we (the white settlers, past and present) are being attacked and vilified for caring about the welfare and well-being of the blacks.
Let's face it, if we were/are the cruel and un-caring villains they accuse us of being, they would not have been given the benefits and assistance, financial and social, that they have been the ungrateful recipients of.
They continually spruik about how hard done by they are and how we don't let them rule themselves.
Their continual demands only serve to annoy everyone and turn the people against them.
Just look at NZ, classic example of PC gone wrong, with the Mauri people rejecting the "white man's" laws and giving everyone a hard time.
One of the things that annoy me is that ALL protests, not just the blacks, consist of a poofteenth of the population.
If the cause was valid and justified, you would get one hell of a turn-out like 60 or 70% of the population, not 0.0001%.
Such numbers mean nothing, only a bunch of out of control noisy entitled and selfish people with a self serving agenda.
I hear them say they want self rule, well I for one reject such a completely unjustified demand.
This country was taken over by foreigners, many years ago, just like every other country in the world.
We are the people that we are, and many years ago it was decided that we were going to be a multicultural country.
Personally I think they stuffed it up, but here we are today, and the one thing that the govt's must not cede to is any one group wanting special treatment and privileges over another, as it will incite such violence and acrimony as we have not yet witnessed.
So I say to all, this is Australia, not aboriginalia, so you are free to practice your particular lifestyle and religion, as long as you abide by AUSTRALIAN laws.
I question the blacks demands for self rule, because they allege they are the only ones who know all about themselves.

A thought on this vein, all people originated in a part of Africa,
We all went somewhere else, and some arrived earlier one spot along
the way. We then moved onto the next spot on the way, and so on and on.
Finally, some arrived in what is now known as Australia.
Behind those first ones came a number of others.

Why do the 23rd arrivals have such a thing about the 2nd last arrivals?
Who gave them the right to object to the second last arrivals ?

Bazz, your comments are so relevant and expose the hypocrisy and lies being promoted by those who would have us feel shame and acrimony in the treatment of the blacks in this country.
As you rightly point out, the blacks were just another mob of transient occupiers of this country.
We have evidence, though small, of others coming here either before or during the period of the blacks stewardship of this country.
They were obviously few in numbers, and therefore easily removed, so there is little or no evidence of their having been here in the first place.
One example is the remains/remnants, of the "round houses" in the East.
These are not examples of anything to do with the blacks, as they were nomadic wanderers, and as hunter gatherers they moved in search of food.
There was NEVER any intent or evidence of OWNING land, as this idea was completely alien and unfamiliar to them.
And so it is that the stupid idea of "giving" land to the blacks, in the false notion that Australia once "belonged" to them is one of the many egregious and dastardly decisions anyone could have been a party to, and they will forever be condemned to anals of the fools of history that failed a nation and it's people.

Sorry, ANNALS, not ANALS. Did not proof read until AFTER I posted, getting late and tired.
