Sadly Ivan I must agree with you on that point. For some the advantages of being a 'victim' is too much to lose.

To explain this simply? There are loads of aboriginals living in the south east corner of Australia. The majority live in the rest of Australia and are treated badly. Whenever this is highlighted in the media the government of the day will throw billions at those in the south east corner of Australia and make a big song and dance about it all. The problem then gets worse because the money is soon filtered down to thousands to be used for those living in the rest of Australia. Prime example is housing where those in the S/E Oz will pay corrupt builders to build houses for the rest but what has happened is those builders purchase the cheapest demountable huts that they can and transport them to then sit unconnected to infrastructure rendering them useless to live in. So the Government, Aboriginal organisations in the S/E Oz district, contractors and aboriginal activist are so busy clapping each other on each others backs while the poor sods that need the help get sweet fanny adams and so it goes on each and every fecking year. This mob in power at the moment made a Ken White as minister for the aboriginals and it seems to me that all he is doing is delaying everything but making sure that this problem remains until either the next election or they loose power and leave it for the opposition mob who will do the same bloody thing. So yes I feel for the aboriginal people as they are being screwed by both the whites and their own mob all the time. So it is not racism here in Oz just outright discrimination and corruption by those who live in the south east corner of Australia towards their fellow humans living elsewhere.

Having worked in NW and N Australia, have had contact with a number of aboriginal elders. Heard one a abused by a young blood and spoke to him the next day. The main problem for the apprent breakdown of law and order he believed, was due to all the white city 'do gooders', who came around telling the young people they did not have to obey their elders, and deserved a government handout, and should not have to work.
Saw a group of passengers off a State Ship, go into front bar of pub in Port Hedland which was where the aboriginals drank, and they were quickly told to go elsewhere as if aboriginals wanted to drink with white they could go to another bar.
Having been a week in the same hospital with an undiscovered tropical disease I can confirm when I came out of isolation some of the language of our native brethren. JS
As said, a lot is coming from those so called 'do gooders' who want to change society to what they think it should be, not what is the best.
But one of the major problems also is the media.
Incapable of telling the truth they embelish what is said or that which occurs making it sound ten times what it is.
Big news the other day with yet another march for the BLM brigade.
This was about Abbo deaths in custody which they claim is higher than in the white prisons.
But what they fail to explain is the number of them that are suicide and the number of deaths caused by their own kind.
Black on black deaths are the cause of most of them.
#18 God forbid Victoria that you should mention reverse racism over here, you'll find yourself arrested or under caution. It's like 'Reverse Lend Lease' during the war you never hear of it, it's brushed under the carpet, you can bet your average American (or UK citizen for that matter) has never heard of it
With regards to claim that Australia was invaded and conquered by 1st. fleet, cant see the scurvy unwashed , disease ridden convicts being much of an invasion force. Far more trouble for their escorts than the local fully fit aboriginals.
