Is Mise,

Please stop asking Foxy questions she cannot answer.

Foxy is locked into rationality and cannot see a world in which there is no normal.

If you really want to make Foxy happy just sing to her: 'Always Look on the Bright Side of Life'.

You just cannot be irrational with her. I've tried; it just doesn't work.

Hi Is Mise,

I don't know what you mean by " .... why do Aboriginal graduates seem to drop from sight?"

For whom ? Overwhelmingly, Indigenous graduates find work in the mainstream, so that's where they are. No bugles, no trumpets, they're just working away like any other graduates.

How many ? To give you an idea, last year, around 14,000 Indigenous people turned, say, 20 or 24.

* At least 3,200 Indigenous students graduated from universities, overwhelmingly in mainstream degree or PH courses, 22-24 %.

* There are now around 46,000 Indigenous university graduates (the Census would put the figure at around 70,000).

* Annual totals for commencements and graduations increase by 7-8 % p.a.

* Two-thirds are women, and students and graduates are overwhelmingly urban, where they have been born and raised.

* Since 1994, around 120,000 Indigenous people have been enrolled at universities in Australia.

Joe,

I mean that they are not seen pursuing treaties or sovereignty, they just get on with their lives as ordinary Australians.

Foxy,

Not so long ago you were arguing that there was but one Australian law and that it was there for all Australians, why the sudden change?

Issy said; "I mean that they are not seen pursuing treaties or sovereignty, they just get on with their lives as ordinary Australians."

Not all Frenchmen joined the 'Residence', although post war 99% claimed they did. Not everyone who supports a cause is an activists. If you gunnie activists called for a protest march down Macquarie St in Sydney in support of your claimed inalienable right to shoot our fury friends how many of the claimed millions of Aussie gunnies would come out in protest? Four fifth of fa I suspect!

You suspect wrongly, Paul.

When the shooters did hold a protest march and rally in Sydney the head of the march was at Parliament House in Macquarrie St while protesters were still being debussed in Hyde Park south of Park St.
Media coverage was small considering that the gun owners protest was the biggest one since the Vietnam War protest marches.

I was employed at the Law Courts building and filmed the Pro march from the roof where I had a clear view to Park St and by crossing diagonally I had a clear view of Parliament House.

The Anti mob held a protest the following week and the media had to film them from various angles to get enough footage to make it look worthwhile, but the coverage on TV was saturating.

I also filmed this pathetic show from the footpath in Macquarrie St.

That was the modern Australianness in action and you perpetuate the lies and misinformation.

Paul, "inalienable right to shoot our fury friends". What a peanut. Always the emotive crap, & never any truth in anything.

There are probably a few who shoot "fury things" for pleasure, I don't know, I've never met one, but I'll bet they are city folk. I own a few guns. One is a shot gun, & I ma proud to say it has provided food with almost every shot. Much of that was full hands of coconuts shot down when climbing tall old palms became a bit much.

I also own a 303, it has been used to dispatch a couple of sharks too big to bring aboard in the Solomons. The islanders like a bit of shark. Otherwise it is used to kill seed pods on cocos palms I was silly enough to let my lady & my mother plant around the pool. If partly severed when young they don't drop those horrible flying fox attracting little nuts, & don't grow into dangerous large pods.

The 22 was used to shoot the wild dogs from the national park, that maraud the area at night. With council requirements that our dogs must be retained, they could not protect my foals when I was still breading horses. I has to do that personally. That hasn't been used in about 10 years, but with my eldest wanting to bread a couple of horses, so her kids can grow up with them as she did, it might have to come out again. One thing is for sure, the council & national parks have done nothing to clean this vermin out of the parks.
