This is the result of uneducated sub-culture that our socialist philosophy has produced over the last 40 yrs.The family unit broken down by handouts and no sense of responsibility.Education systems that have failed both in discipline and in their primary function.

Should we be surprised?The veneer of civilisation is but a micron thin even with the blessing of good genetics.

I hope you are now well examinator.Hold no grudges but look at the reasons and take those to task who want to perpetuate such anarchy.

Members of my own family have suffered at the hands of such ignorance in Sydney.It takes decades to build a civilised society and few moments to destroy it.We no longer have political leaders,just managers of decay.

Examinator - I'm also a little confused by what you mean as "bogan". To me, it's always denoted a suburban subculture characterised by flanellette shirts, ugg boots, beer and bad music. Not to my taste, but neither inherently ofensive nor violent. You seem to be referring to something else,

Sorry to be pedantic, but what exactly do you mean by "bogan"?

And Happy New Year to you, and I'm glad you're out of hospital!

Some have thought there is a conspiracy to keep the poor at a certain level?

One World Government and the New World Order smack of a rich elite governing the world. Taking charge of the poor and the ferals (as some might call the simpler peoples). Keeping them at a level so they cant get above it. Feeding them unemployment benefits rather than work (which is always available if governments want it). Pumping them full of TV and sport so they get diverted from the elites goals.

If we go to Revelation 13:16-18 and 14:9-11 we see a world leader, head of the elite, taking charge of all of the peoples.

Many christians believe he is alive today (see Mark of the Beast 666).

Dear examinator,

Welcome back, and Happy New Year!

I'm so sorry that you ended up in hospital.
I trust that you're much better now?

I've always associated 'Bogan,' with mullet
hair cuts, and the character that Eric Bana
played on TV , 'Poida.'

To be able to explain why certain people behave the
way they do, I would have to know more about them,
and the reasons why they behave the way they do.
It could be their upbringing, their lack of education,
the culture to which they belong...

I'm just sorry that you've obviously been upset by
your experience. Hopefully, the New Year will improve
for you.

Take care,

Examinator,
After reading the other posts, it seems you are talking about people, undesirable people that are commonly known as riffraff, rabble or scum.

It would have been a big help if you had explained that in the first place. I have not heard the term Bogan in relation to people and would like to know how the term originated and by whom.

I can't help with a solution but heres a tip. When considering buying a home in another area or town, take a drive around the place in a taxi. Taxi drivers know where all the undesirables live. Talk to the driver, money well spent.

I can see a big problem if they happen to move next door. I'll stay out of town for as long as possible, where neighbors are far enough away.

Dear examinator,

I've just remembered a joke about a 'bogan,'
that just may put that smile back on your
face. At least it's worth a try, so here
goes:

An old man was sitting at a bus-stop
patiently waiting for a bus when up walked
a teenager with the most outrageous haircut ever.
It was grotesque. Not only was it a giant mohawk,
but it was all the colours of the rainbow, done
in these brilliant multi-coloured layers,
from yellows, oranges, greens to reds, blues,
whites, and even blacks. The young man looked
absolutely hideous.

Anyway, the young man sat down next to the old man
on the bench, and very aggressively asked,
"What'cha lookin at?"
The old man just sat there and stared
wide-eyed, at the young man.

The youngster got annoyed because the old man hadn't
replied.
"What'cha lookin at, you old fart?" repeated the youngster.
Again, the old man continued to sit and stare at the
young man.

The youngster was getting angrier by the lack of response
from the old man, so he leaned towards the old man
and shouted in his ear:
"What's the matter, you deaf?
I bet you haven't seen anything like me before, eh?"

And, this time the old man, cleared his throat
and in a quiet polite voice replied,
"Oh yes, I have Laddie, that's why I'm
staring at you.
I once made love to a parrot, and I'm wondering
whether you're my son!"
