Players refusing to sing the National anthem in protest

[unforgiven]

What puts me at odds with most people is that I don’t believe hand outs & the promotion of a victim mentality will ever achieve that goal.

Actually, that is not what puts you at odds with most people.

But why are there more indigenous people committing those crimes? please don't respond with the answer of as a race they are just bad people, because I'm sure even you know what that is called!

Upbring, socio-economic issues, no respect for themselves or others, drugs/alcohol/petrol sniffing - that's four, there is obviously more.

 

[magpie4ever]

Their culture was doing well for 40 odd thousand years.

Something changed. Some kind of shit influence.

Not sure what though.

Not having at shot at you, but how would you know?

I blame the missing white fathers who raped the aboriginal women a little bit.

And what has led to those issues?

Free pass for the Black fathers, though.

After all, they’re victims.

How would you?

What do you think they were doing?

It's considered the oldest culture in the world.

They were able to survive for that long living fairly sustainably off the land with their own culture and set of beliefs and rituals.

Seems pretty successful to me. Lets see if what we're doing lasts that long.

I bet you $5 with interest it won't.

You're so victimised.

Poor kid.

Ouch! My bleeding heart.

I am sure you will smash more emojis and keep telling us how clever you are.

There’s an inconvenient truth if I ever heard one.

Seems to me you feel victimised by someone not sharing your opinion. Take a look at the emotion in your posts vs mine & Magpies.

It’s clear you’re far more passion than logic on this subject.

Do these guys ever consider that the reason they get overlooked for rep honour is not because they're aboriginal but because they will parlay their selection into some totally unrelated agenda they'll pour down everyone's throat.

He'll most likely get shown up pretty hard at this level so hopefully we only have to endure this crap for one game.

Well JAC is one of the first blues picked and probably the best winger on the field so yeah I don't like your chances. So I guess sooking more is your only alternative.

The world changed, as it is always doing. It is 2019, not 1719. We might not like change, but if you don’t change you get left behind. And that happens to everyone regardless of race.

 

[The Book of Steeden]

They are victims.

Even though that might be difficult for the privileged to understand.

You know who gets the most "handouts" in life? Kids in GPS schools. And look how well they do. Guess that's different though.

Their predecessors were victims.

Slight difference.

I'm an advocate of free speech. Say whatever you want to say.

Although I'd rather be in your position of having a few comments deleted on a Rugby League forum then an aboriginal over the last 200 years. Particularly those prior to about 1970.

But keep fighting the important fight.

Why is it wrong to be passionate about things?

Why does the anthem have meaning to you? Where’s the logic?

Not really. Their "handouts" help them get by pretty well.

A lot of that is probably old money. It accumulates, or not, if you don't have any.

So we can move on from the current anthem?

Racist hate speech.

I knew someone would come on here and say that. You really don’t have any idea in what you are talking about. You paint a face on somebody you don’t know anything about, just to push your own agenda.

Not gonna lie. The misunderstanding here is pretty amusing.
