A mans life can be divided into four stages of SANTA.

Stage 1. A man believes in SANTA.
Stage 2. A man doesn't believe in SANTA.
Stage 3. A man is SANTA.
Stage 4. A man looks like SANTA.

Dear Josephus,

There is evidence:

An unpublished report obtained by SBS News has outlined
the cultural and archaeological significance of KOKatha
Aboriginal sites that were discovered in a military testing
range in South Australia.

The report describes a cluster of stone hut foundations
found inside the weapons testing range that were either used
as habitation structures or as low-walled hunting hides. A
total of 14 individual structures were recorded although more
could be present - GML Heritage Consultants wrote in 2020.

In the 1960 -1 When I lived in among aboriginal's camp north of Alice Springs building the home for aboriginal children to be serviced by a teacher and nurse who were working at that time in Alice. That was to keep the children attached to their families.

On Christmas week we drove out past nine mile bore and the tribe had come together from the cattle stations and were camping on the ground with nothing but blankets. There were about 60 to 100 there as there was water there. They complained they had no food, so we shot a couple of kangaroos for them. By our standards they are uncivilized and uneducated.

On many nights at the local camp, you would hear the woman screaming as fights broke out among the men who were taking to each other with metal poles and axes. The son of the missionary we were working with would go across and settle the situation otherwise it would go on all night till one was deeply injured. Makarrata settling justice aboriginal way with a deep injury. Makarrata means spear in the leg to stop them oppressing [fighting].

The Voice is the first step in aboriginal justice, to get justice by injuring the colonial settlers, they claim took their land, without benefit to them. The elite cannot accept they have every opportunity to prosper in the current western society, they want to return to the old culture. Those in the bush would love to have the same standard of living as their cousins in the cities. The Voice will not function for the uneducated as they cannot speak in parliament as their educated cousins who want power to control land, water, and beaches.

Dear Josephus,

You've got it wrong.

All the First Nations people want is to be able
to have a say and offer solutions in policies
and programs that affect them.

Josephus you are a clown. It is an advisory body. That is it. You continue to prosecute this racist dog whistle crap. It is utter garbage that any normal person would be ashamed to put up.

I went to primary school in Darwin in the mid 60s and about a third of the school were Aboriginal kids. We got on fine. Darwin at that time was a grog soaked cesspit with a hell of a lot of white trash escaping problems they had in the south. The booze culture was absolutely everywhere and domestic violence was rife no matter the colour of the skin.

However for a certain section of the Aboriginal population without housing the excesses were not behind closed doors but out in the open.

I often went to a mate's place and the his was passed out drunk on the couch. An aboriginal passed out drunk in a park though would be looked down upon.

The only real difference was of having the opportunity to keep ones intoxication out of the public eye.

Foxy, that is the beginning of the ULURU STATEMENT FROM THE HEART.
It is the VOICE with the INVOICE to follow. Pay the RENT. You are ignoring the agenda of the voice. Listen to the founders of the Voice, like Linda Burney, Thomas Mayo, Thea Reid, Marcia Langton, and others who proposed the Voice. Albanese is just stuck on the Voice at the moment and will not propose Treaty and truth telling and reparations for loss of sovereignty.

In sixty-five thousand years they did not develop more than their ancestors had when they arrived in Australia, except a boomerang which the tribes in the Arnhem land that had contact with sailors from Borneo introduced 20,500 years ago.
