Without prejudice : Comments

By Bill Calcutt, published 29/6/2020

The global resurgence of the Black Lives Matter campaign reminds Australians of the ongoing disproportionate rate of incarceration of indigenous people in this country.

Too much political correctness.

Runner, I had the opposite experience. I was travelling on the old Ghan from Marree to Alice Springs with a lady from Hermansburg mission just a short while before the referendum. She was adamant that the natives would be able to handle their introduction to alcohol. I assured her that she was wrong but to no avail. My boss at the time came from South Africa. He told me that the natives there were good blokes to work with but during the weekemds they got on the Kaffir beer and they were downright dangerous.

The do gooders need to go to the NT and see for themselves and talk to some of the older women in the camps and get the true picture of black on black violence.

"70% of incarcerated indigenous people have been incarcerated for acts of violence against their own family members."

Jacinta price.

Jacinta Price would know all about that as she has been campaigning against it for many years as has her mother Bess Price before her.

I don't know how more people other than black or grey that won't get their heads around the reasons for all the problems with the blacks and grey.
Now I obviously do not know, but the elephant in the room has just about had enough of this PC crap.
It is a matter of fact that the whites have tried to better the lives of the blacks, now as another matter of fact and quoting the truth, the "blacks" that have been given a "leg up", by being given the opportunity to go to uni has nothing to do with the way it's reported.
ALL these so called, blacks, are in fact grey, they are not pure bloods, so we have a problem in that we are getting false stats and that includes those incarcerated.
I find it perplexing that if someone has both black and white blood in them, that they are allowed to go around calling themselves black.
And I absolutely don't care for those who go around saying they "identify" themselves, or whatever, as black.
Utter rubbish.
You are what you are, end of!
There is no doubt that the intentions of the white man were good, but the greed and averace and the feeling of disenfranchisement by the blacks has caused them to rebel against literally, "the hand that feeds them".
Personally, I don't care to throw any more money at them, because the only ones who are benefitting from the handouts and payments are those black and white mongrels who administer the whole thing.
As far as I am concerned, we are ALL Aussie and the sooner we start accepting that one section of the population is no more special than the other, the sooner we can start to see some normality.
The sooner we will start to see the reduction of blacks and greys being incarcerated.

As I have said a number of times, at the rate the number of near white
aborigines is increasing in another two hundred years only DNA tests
will be able to tell if someone has any aboriginal blood.
That being so what to do about the Constitutional referendum ?
Really it just becomes a nonsense as the whole matter should be.
We are born here, we grow up here, we go to school here and live our
lives here. What is the point of all this "my country" business ?

The aborigines are in a different situation to the Africans.
The Africans have for good reason, always been in an inferior position
which is why the phase "White Pivilage" or more correctly "White Advantage"
has struck a chord in the USA.

So that phrase should never be heard in Australia.

When someone without a drop of indigenous blood can become indigenous Australian of the year then it's clear that the whole show is just a bandwagon !
