aboriginal flagWe’ve given Aboriginals equal opportunity.

We’ve pumped billions into their failed townships and remote communities.

We’ve tried letting them govern themselves.

We gave them an official government apology over how they’re ancestors were treated.

All this and still practically zero productivity, more whinging and demands for more money.

After reports of rampant child abuse and alcoholism were publicised the Liberal government decided enough was enough and put in place what’s called the intervention. In a nutshell the idea is that Aboriginals are forced to buy food and essentials with their dole money instead of drugs and alcohol.

For the most part it seems to have worked, infact it seems to have worked a little too well. Some aboriginals are so disillusioned that they’ve appealed to visiting UN delegate James Anaya.

A GROUP of Australian Aborigines has asked the United Nations for refugee status, claiming special emergency laws to curb alcohol and sexual abuse in the remote outback have turned them into outcasts at home.

“We’ve got no say at all. We feel like an outcast in our community, refugees in our own country” said Richard Downs, a spokesperson for the 4000-strong Alyawarra people in central Australia when he spoke on state radio.

The intervention, launched in June 2007 to stamp out widespread child sex abuse, had taken away indigenous rights, Mr Downs said.


So certain Aboriginals are feeling like outcasts over not being able to abuse children and drink themselves silly?

WELL GOOD.

Finally maybe the message is starting to get through.

And what’s all this nonsense about indigenous rights and the intervention. What do Aboriginals seriously expect us to respect their claims that they have a right to abuse children? Yeah sorry Richard not the best argument for your people there that one.

Unfortunately the UN is probably only going to scratch the surface and point the finger at Australians again and probably recommend we just throw more money at the problem and let Aboriginals manage their dole payments themselves again.

I mean it’s easy as an impressionable outsider from the UN to rock up, see the appalling conditions these people bring upon themselves and just blame the government. Everywhere else in the world the local minority seem have gotten on with life but oh no, not our precious Aboriginals.

Personally I lost most of my respect for the UN when earlier this year they entertained reccomending to governments that blasphemy be made illegal. Even more respect was lost when the Durban conference, which is supposed to be about combating global racism was again hijacked by Islamic states and used to bash Israel.

I really feel sorry for those Aboriginals trying to make it in this world with the rest of us. It seems there are simply no limit to the depths certain Aboriginals will sink to in an effort to get back the old gravy train of welfare with no personal responsibility or commitment they were on.

The glory days are over guys. Even if you are declared refugees what’s that going to achieve? If the global spotlight is shone on these failed communities do you really think anybody is going to see anything different to what the rest of Australia sees?

How insulting that Aboriginals who have it so good believe they are on the same level as those genuinely fleeing for their lives. I’m not talking about the asylum shoppers who jump on a plane to Indonesia either, I’m talking about the genuine ones who flee with nothing to wherever they can get to and are just happy to not be dead.

Really, not being able to abuse children and alcohol puts you in the same basket as a genuine refugee? Please.
