Anybody looked at the historical Quadrant quotes yet?

How come I'm here today? You can't help yourself can you, and you will never get a life.

I am here today, to express my opinion, not to argue with other people's opinions - certainly not your Google rubbish, which I sometimes note in passing.

And, yes: my opinion is the one that counts, besides those that are the same or similar to mine, and that certainly cuts out you, Paul 1405 and SteeleRedux and Aidan. I am OK with all other posters.

I hope that is clear to you, because I won't be bothering with you or the other sad sacks again. You have the same entitlements as anyone else, but I find you and your opinions and comments totally obnoxious, ignorant and childishly querulous.

Too many latte sipping experts who have no idea( many on the government nipple and doing very well.) Try living among and with it for 50+ years and you may get some idea of the problem. Very sad situation and more money will not fix it. Starts with the kids seeing and hearing it all on a regular basis and then taken as a general way of life but we cant have another stolen generation can we. One of our dear friends finished up as a tourism guide during his later years and always told the tourists where to go, how to get there among other things. He was “stolen” and told them he would not be here under normal circumstances and would quite freely answer questions about it. The look on faces as he told his life story was a sight to behold. RIP wonderful man.

"Anybody looked at the historical Quadrant quotes yet?"

Yes. I read the article last year. It's just saying the same things as I've been saying here for years - that aboriginal society was highly misogynist (perhaps the MOST misogynist of all stone age peoples) and that the problems native women face now are the result of the continuation of that culture.

Of course, that article needed to be written, and many more will need to be written in the future, because the aboriginal apologists refuse to accept the truth, believing the truth to be racist.

So women will continue to die.

The Quadrant editor Keith Windschuttle's book The Fabrication of Aboriginal History is the go-to for matters aboriginal. Unlike the younger "historians" and wankademics, Keith uses original documents, and footnotes the lot of them.

ttbn,

I responded to your statement that: "bored and lonely people,
anonymous bodies, sitting in front of a lap top in their
pyjamas think their bullshite is relevant."

I asked, "Then how come you're here every day?" "Does
only your opinion matter to you?" Imagine my surprise
when you replied that your opinion is the one that counts to you
and also those that are the same or similar to yours.
You find any other objectionable and I felt flattered that you
included my opinion amongst those of Steele, Paul, and Aidan,
which you objected to.

None of us on this forum need your validation
to contribute. And if you so vehemently object
to any opinions - as I've told you in the past - you're under
no obligation to read any of them.

You keep saying that you are going to ignore opinions and
people - yet even in my case - you can't help yourself.
You keep stalking me over multiple discussions with your
digs and snide remarks making me suspicious that it's you who'
is after validation. I wish that you would stay away from me.
That would be bliss. But I suspect that it's not going to
happen.

Anyhow - I shall keep on expressing my opinions. As I'm sure
so will you. We've both lived without each other's approvals
for decades. I'm sure we can continue to do so.

mhaze,

Violence against Aboriginal women in Australia incorporates
a variety of factors from their race, gender, the after-effects
of colonisation to the minority status of Aboriginal
people, the unequal access to societal resources
and the consequent
unequal development of Aboriginal communities to name just
a few.

Addressing the problems demands an appreciation of
the different role and status of Aboriginal people ranging
from a separate or fringe community to an integrated part
of Australian society.

The huge variety of factors complicates the analysis of the issue
of violence against Aboriginal women because it involves an
inter-play of all these factors.

All social and economic indicators
suggest that Aborigines are the most disadvantaged Australians.
