Leo Lane

Just stop listening to all these other hysterical left-wing voices for a moment - and listen to your own voice:

• “a creation of the left”

• “mindless and vicious mantras”

• “negative conditioning”

• “Black communities conditioned to believe”

• “a giant step backwards”

• “caught in a stone age backwater of evolution”

• “a wonderful opportunity to embrace civilization”

• “howled down and intimidated by the activists”

• “the victim industry”

• “lives were ruined by progressive ‘help’”

• “lives were ruined by their activist relatives”

• “inculcating the negative emotional poison generated by the left wing”

• “entrenched these vipers in tertiary educational institutions”

• “the creators and facilitators of this vicious myth”

• “the positive initiative of the Government”.

Now, having listened to the audio, who owns which problem, and how can we help?

Thanks FrankGol and Rainier. I had dismissed Leo Lane's rants as the mendacious ravings of yet another racist troll, but your responses provide a window of hope for the very slim possibility that he is simply deluded.

FrankGol, brilliant.

But why stop at just Leo's most recent post? Here's the Readers' Digest version of his earlier one:

"progressives derailed the Aboriginal relationship with the community..."

"...and instituted the downfall of the black communities"

"inveigled by the unions into gaining an award which made them unemployable"

"limiting of the education of aboriginals to useless topics,"

"the left have locked them into victim status."

"blackmailing the government"

"Howard is now acting to stop this travesty."

"this weapon of the left."

Thank heavens we have Leo's calm voice of reason to save us from the hyberbolic foam-flecked ravings of TEH LEFT.

Perhaps his problem is that TEH LEFT keep putting 'emotional poison' in his drinking supply.

You have selected some of my phrases, and set them out in a disjointed arrangement, in an attempt to ridicule them. I suppose you are sniggering like schoolboys, at your puerile vandalising of a sensible post.

I notice you carefully avoided any phrases relating to the “stolen children” debacle, the badge of shame of the bleeding hearts, and the trigger for current Government action.

Are you unable to absorb an argument in a coherent form, and make a sensible observation on it?

I fully appreciate that you would not like to set out your own thoughts, even if you had any. You do not wish to underline your refusal to face reality.

Your own couple of paragraphs make no sense. Mercurius, I gather, thinks a clumsy attempt at trivialisation is brilliant. FrankGol, it seems, wants to help.

He might train for litter collection. The hardest part is to learn what litter must not be touched because of safety regulation or union ban, but his mentality might cope with that.

He should certainly avoid any activity which requires literary skill.

The three of you ( I include CJMorgan) seem to inhabit the same alternate reality, where fantasy passes for fact.

I sympathise with Ranier, if he gained his knowledge from the factless histories of Henry Reynolds, Stuart McIntyre, Lyndall Ryan, Manning Clark, and others of that ilk, since he will need to revise extensively, if he wishes to base his outlook on truth.

Thanks for your input, it has been instructive and amusing.

Leo, glad we could provide some amusement for you, but it's not half as amusing as your self-declared review of your own posts as 'sensible'. You seem to have learnt from the Paul Keating school of self-praise. (PS - It would be more convincing if somebody other than you said your posts were sensible.)

I did not set your phrases in a 'disjointed arrangement'. I merely repeated your vitriolic, hyperbolic phrases in the precise order that you set them down. Did it make for uncomfortable reading? If you still regard such phraseology as 'sensible', then we'll have to agree to disagree.

And I'm quite capable of absorbing an argument in a coherent form. I look forward to reading one from you soon.

About the only claim I could find amongst all your vitriol was a suggestion that the "stolen generations" were a 'trigger' (your word) for the current campaign in the NT.

Funny, and here I was thinking it had something to do with child abuse and grog. Neither the PM and Mal Brough have mentioned the stolen generation in any of this, and in fact whenever Mal Brough and his representatives have gone to these communities, they have been at pains to reassure the locals that no children will be removed.

So on what premise do you base your claim that the "stolen generation" is the trigger for government action? It will surely be news to the PM.

As for 'fantasy'. I wasn't aware that the Aboriginal people who according to government records grew up in boarding-homes and foster-homes after being removed from their parental home were all imaginary mythic people, or possibly hallucinations. Thanks for setting me straight.

And I've never read Reynolds or MacIntyre or Ryan or Clark, but I have seen photos of Aboriginal people working on farms in neck-irons. Perhaps those photos have been transported here from an alternate reality that never happened. Or maybe it was Photoshop.

Here we go again. Your own words:

- puerile vandalising of a sensible post.

- the “stolen children” debacle, the badge of shame of the bleeding hearts.

- unable to absorb an argument

- not like to set out your own thoughts, even if you had any

- refusal to face reality

- your own couple of paragraphs make no sense... a clumsy attempt at trivialisation

- might train for litter collection

- his mentality might cope with that

- should certainly avoid any activity which requires literary skill.

- seem to inhabit the same alternate reality, where fantasy passes for fact.

Now this list of yours comes in the context of telling us that we are negative and just attempting to ridicule you. Ridicule!

Really, I think you don't need us to ridicule you when your own words speak so eloquently for themselves.
