Sadly, this subject will continue to be hotly debated & I only wish there was a less challenging way of discussing it.
The original question re 60,000 years of culture is in my opinion invalid as period of existence does not equal culture !
The Europeans claim thousands of years of culture yet observing many of today's European descendants are anything but cultured unless Bogans are considered cultured which I doubt !

As far as culture goes Give me a full blood Aborigine over a non-indigenous Okker moron any day !
Why decent Australians don't make an effort to weed out these useless drugged-to-the eyeballs
morons has got me stumped, it could easily be achieved with a national Service !

A group of aboriginal activits attempted to burn down the OLD Parliament House and caused extensive damage. Vidio shows them clapping and chanting "Let it burn". This is the culture we are supposed to respect.

This is the culture we are supposed to respect.
Josephus,
I'd imagine there weren't any Aborigines involved, only full-time morons who think they once saw an Aborigine !
