He kicks a footy, never come close to winning a Nobel Prize He kicks a footy, never built a job creating business. He kicks a footy. yeah, plus: What did he do to be named as Australian of the Year? Adam is proud of his Indigenous heritage, and is actively involved with several Indigenous sport and...

No but he did verbally abuse that 11 year old girl, so he diserves to be put in a jail with the rest of em. And he is the only player to cry so much to get free kicks. Did you know that little 10 year old girl is now wanted by the police for racism?? Its rediculous. Shame Goodes shame, I will boo lo...

Eh? no, I'm saying that deniers are the people saying he would get the same treatment if he weren't aboriginal. He wouldn't. Whether or not each and every person who has ever booed AG is racist, (of course they aren't), this idea is still hard to deny. If Adam Goodes mother were white, he would have...

But this being turned into a left vs right thing doesn't bode well... Alan jones has blown his hot wind into it also. Just what I said before. The issue gets polarised and filtered into absolutes and no one gets to have ice cream. Alan Jones will make things better, sure. All we need is that lunati...

Below is a comment from that first dog on the moon cartoon that seemed interesting enough to share... Arcane 1h ago According to psychologist Dr Laura Schlessinger racists are motivated by at least five factors. 1. Self-Esteem: Racists are generally people with low self-esteem due to their low-soci...

That's it. That's the point.

Deniers can argue all they like.

Heyyy! Welcome back stranger. Stick around a while, this place needs more emoticons and multicoloured writing right now.

Christensen will get booed. I wonder how that will be viewed. To what are you trying to alude? Are you telling us that our concept of racism is screwed? It's true that this blanket reaction to one type of behaviour has given the right-wing libertine sharks some food. It's clear that since the AotY,...

The Herald Sun, you say?

That stanch defender of rules and fear against the threat of fairness and enlightenment?

Don't ever expect accuracy or quality from that rag. I used to only read it for the footy, now that's so bad it's not even worth washing windows with.

Gaz, it's the foody and theatre, we cheer our heros and boo our villains. Agreed. ... and its very purpose , is to allow the relief of held stress n tension by the people , so as it doesnt explode sideways out in the general community during the daily grind. So basically , we are as the Romans. Whe...

This entire page of the thread should be deleted, in my opinion. Just garbage, and I'm sorry to be part of it.

Yep I would like to move back to Australia. No it isn't perfect. And? You have deep issues with me that you need to resolve for the good of yourself myself and everyone on this forum, saynta. Maybe you and mullet can start a gang to try and get me off this forum. I invited you to resolve your proble...

You are a racist, proven by your comments. I have no time for you You really are up yourself. You are a tool proven by your comments. You certainly have enough time for me to continually insult me, and defame me. Are you talking about my comments about Australia? Find one thing there which could co...

Yes it was. Fat bogan < ape (to a black person) One is name calling, the other is dehumanising. Both bad, one worse. Simple. Don't reply to my posts. I'm not interested in your opinion. According to you, you don't even live in this country, yet you have the hide to call Australians racists. If that...

Legal definition? Are you serious? Just... Con slagged a girl off on a forum she will never read. The girl racially abused a man to his face in a crowd of many doing the same thing. Oh but it wasn't gorilla, it was ape. Oh the legal definition of air swing is assault. What other minor points would y...

Young aboriginal girls get humiliated by white dudes every day of the week but one fat little white bogan racist gets called out by an aboriginal man and whities spend the next 18 months defending her ......... Charming Yes I know I have erred here in saying this but I wanted to make a point that t...

Did he do that? I dont think anyone has. What has been said is that there is a big problem with racism in Australia or even Australia is a racist country, not the same thing as saying everyone is racist at all.

the word 'hate' is being used as if 'we' are normal balanced fair human beings when involving ourselves in that sort of energetic output. ... who has the right to judge another as a flog in the first place. ... accepted & executed judgemental behavour seems to be the source issue ... expressing...

This is a pretty neat analysis of the situation.

If you haven't heard 'it only happens to goodes' you've not been listening. And so now it's the 'degree' that's the problem? If it was notched back 20% would that be ok? Mark, it only happens to this degree to Goodes. That is what people are saying. Get it? And yes, if it were notched back to the k...
