It is possible a high level bureaucrat, who loved his Italian or Greek wife , gave her name to a street, it is possible to find a non Anglo Saxon name on a small street but I DO NOT SPEAK FOR THIS!
I supposed people who read or write on this forum are honest, brave and their IQ is enough high to understand what we mean. I do not speak for exceptions but for the rules. If in an area which developed mainly from migrants, where live mainly migrants, there are 1000 streets and you found 5 Non Anglo Saxon street names, then these names are the exceptions not the rule.

TurnRightThenLeft, when Antonios makes allegations (for example Adelaide has no non-Anglo street names or suburbs) and is proved wrong yet, instead of replying to that, goes on with more ranting, this is not 'constructive criticism' as you labelled it.

While I would not suggest a 'gag', I feel that immigrants should at least show some appreciation for the country that has let them in rather than whinge and complain that it does not fit all their ideals.

As for your agreeeing with Antonios that there is a lot of racism, you are right. Many immigrants, Antonios included, are anti-Australian racists. Anglo and Celtic Australians made this country so in fairness, can't you see their annoyance when someone comes in with next to no knowledge of our customs etc and expects everything to change to suit them.

Maybe when I arrived I should have demanded a public holiday for St Andrew's Day.

Antonios, there are much more than 5 non-Anglo street names per 1000 in Adelaide. Buy a UBD and check it out.

Dear Antonio
I also asked you these other questions=

1 Why were you so outraged at he government stopping the payments to ASTIC given that its clear they squandered their own peoples lives future and betrayed them?
2 What did you mean when you said to Taryn that ATSIC funding was for our people? You still have not answered] You go on in another thread to say to us that you know nothing of ATSIC Forgive me ifI am a little confused. I just wanted to understand and clear that up.

The Good Muslim people we meet with raised this as a concern some time ago
They were concerned that wherever you have a lower educationn and poverty standards its a open invitation for extreme people to try to [perswade the vonerable.
There wasa lot of talk about a New political Groups of more ectreme muslims trying to sway some aboriginal folk to get involved

We are still confused by your comment your not sure we care about aborignal people and wondered if you could explain please what you meant.
We think its a good thing that ASTIC was replaced.
of course they is MUCH work to be done
As far as I am concerned Aboriginal people must come first.
This is Australia an we owe them everything. You seem to be very aggressive toward us despite knowing we work with aboriginal programes and Muslim Leaders to improve Animal Welfare and their lives in one.
Its almost like you saw us as the enermy:)

Lets be honest JTL; I have never bothered myself with your incorrect ramblings before, and I won't now. You childish reference to buying a UBD (ha!) is rather sad.

You carry on, you have obsessed about my posts before;- you have little grasp of our city, and quite frankly I doubt you could post on anything unless you had a reference book in your hand!

Antonios knows his turf, and so do I. I know you from old so you WILL now go on and on.

I will ignore you as he has. You and I both know that this has little to do with Adelaide street names. It has more to do with your vendetta against me. I disagreed with your comment, which 'most' did not even comment on! But TO disagree with you was a risk that would start you of again. And here you go.....

Dear People Against Live Exports & Intensive Farming
You asked me again.
1 Why were you so outraged at he government stopping the payments to ASTIC given that its clear they squandered their own peoples lives future and betrayed them?
2 What did you mean when you said to Taryn that ATSIC funding was for our people? You still have not answered] You go on in another thread to say to us that you know nothing of ATSIC Forgive me ifI am a little confused. I just wanted to understand and clear that up.
I said you that this report is from Human Rights Commission of UN, I did not write anything about it for the simple reason I do not know enough good the whole story. THIS IS NOT MINE, I DID NOT WRITE ANYTHING ABOUT IT, what else do you want to tell you, I am not angry with you simple this is not mine and I do not know it enough good to give you a responsible answer.
I am honest and clear with you and you do not like to understand me.

Back to your old form, Ginx. I don't agree with you so I am having a 'vendetta' against you.
If you knew your turf, you would agree that there are many non-Anglo street names and suburbs but, no, you'd rather start another of your little rants.
Where will it end? You having another hissy fit and then refraining from posting for a few weeks?
BTW, when has correcting you when you're wrong equated to being obsessed? Obviously you still don't like to be corrected.
If you are professing to ignore me (possibly because I upset your little ego) why did you start this with your post of Tuesday, 26 February 2008 8:17:27 PM?
