You don't know your history very well if you think they were exempt from
sickness, which was mostly fatal.

That's always the same old story.

Not all drink grog.

So where would they be today if the whites stayed away

No it's not, it's the whole ****ing point of the topic. If you really
believe the whites were told to do this through some "ethnic cleansing"
bull****, then it's no wonder you can't see the other side.

No, more like "your children are dying and are being mistreated, we want
to
help you".

Jack, your attitude is one of being lead by the "bleeding heart brigade".
All I asked for you today was to consider the alternative, something you
continue to close your eyes to. As you can't see that, it would be
difficult
to have any sort of discussion with you. My partner and I still have heavy
discussion on this subject as she is easily lead as well and thinks along
your lines.
Do you deny the following?
1. The giving of doctors and free medical care
2. The building of homes which are often vandalised and destroyed
3. The giving of ree travel anywhere, whenever.
4. The giving to each and every family member $100.00 and
free travel to attend an aboriginal funeral.
5. The non charging of rent on any lands that white people have
to pay. There are always "land rights" claims before the courts.
6. The giving of interest free loans.
7. The giving of $8,000.00 each towards each daughters' wedding
8. The payment of $1.7 billion per year for 250,000 people,
which is $48,000.00 per man, woman and child.
I guess you're right, we are very unfair.
