Published: 6:59 am, Friday, 30 September 2016 Anthony Mundine has called on all players at this weekend's NRL and AFL grand finals to boycott the Australian national anthem. The former rugby league star turned boxer shared a video via social media urging people to make a stand at ANZ Stadium and the MCG in support of the Indigenous community. The campaign, driven by Australian pop culture website Junkee, follows the lead of San Francisco quarterback Colin Kaepernick and other NFL players who have knelt during the US anthem to protest against racial inequality and injustice. 'Been saying this for years!' Mundine posted on Facebook on Thursday. 'The anthem was written in late 1700s where blackfullas (sic) were considered fauna (animals) advance Australia fair as in white not fair as in fair go ... 'All players aboriginal non aboriginal should boycott the anthem start changing Australia's ignorant mentality...lets move forward together yo.' Last week, former league players Larry Corowa and Joe Williams also called on Indigenous players in Sunday's NRL decider to not stand for the anthem. 'Imagine if a couple of guys did it on grand final day - what a powerful message it would send to white Australia,' Williams told Rugby League Week. 'It would bring all the racism that's in the closet to the surface - the racism we have to put up with every day. The way we are treated in shops, the way people look at us on the street and the way the government treats us. 'It's time it stopped. And our footballers are role models and the ideal ones to bring about change.' |

Mundine's a "has been" who never actually made it. So now he feels the need to make a controversial comment to get some attention. I wonder what his white mother feels about his comments.

Anthony Mundine (born 21 May 1975) is an Australian professional boxer and former rugby league player. In boxing he has held the WBA super-middleweight title twice, the IBO middleweight title, as well as the WBA interim, International and WBC Silver light-middleweight titles. Before his move to boxing he was the highest paid player in the NRL.[2] He considers himself to be Australia's best all-round athlete.[3] He is the son of former boxer Tony Mundine and hails from the Bundjalung people of northern coastal areas of New South Wales.[4] Mundine was named the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Person of the Year in 2000. He is the first boxer in history to have had every one of his professional fights broadcast for television and has generated more pay-per-views than any other Australian boxer since he turned professional.[5] Steve Bunce has described him as "arguably the greatest crossover athlete in boxing history".[6] Mundine has had a stormy relationship with the media:[7] his conversion to Islam in 1999, self-promotion and outspoken opinions have created a love–hate relationship with the Australian public.[8] Mundine has been described as "the most polarising athlete in Australian sports history".[9] |

Do you notice how all these people who go on about racism and the poor treatment white people mete out to Aborigines, never have the courage of their convictions and leave Australia for good - after handing back all their material possessions to the natives of course. No, they are quite happy to live here and enjoy all the fruits of the white exploitation while criticising those who made their lifestyle possible.
But then, logic is hardly the SJW strongpoint. ::) |

he was the highest paid player in the NRL.
Don't know where that came from but it is awful hard to believe. He was a good versatile first grade player but he was never the best in any position he played. There were always several players in front of him for rep positions etc. |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Australia_policy
White Australia policy The term White Australia policy comprises various historical policies that effectively barred people of non-European descent from immigrating to Australia. There was never any specific policy titled such, but the term was invented later to describe a collection of policies that were designed to exclude people from Asia (particularly China) and the Pacific Islands (particularly Melanesia). These policies had their inception in the goldfields where there was antagonism to Chinese miners who worked co-operatively and were perceived to be doing better than their white counterparts. From the 1850s there were restrictions on family members joining Chinese miners already in Australia. The colonial authorities levied a special tax on Chinese immigrants that other immigrants were exempted from. Towards the end of the nineteenth century there was also a push by the labour unions to stop work done by Chinese immigrants in the furniture and market garden industries. Australian furniture had to be labelled "Made with Chinese Labour". The formal White Australia policy officially came soon after the Federation of Australia with the Immigration Restriction Act 1901. The policy was progressively dismantled between 1949 and 1973.[3] Competition in the goldfields between British and Chinese miners, and labour union opposition to the importation of Pacific Islanders into the sugar plantations of Queensland, reinforced the demand to eliminate or minimize low wage immigration from Asia and the Pacific Islands. Soon after Australia became a federation it passed the Immigration Restriction Act of 1901. The passage of this bill is considered the commencement of the White Australia Policy as Australian government policy. Subsequent acts further strengthened the policy up to the start of the Second World War.[4] These policies effectively allowed for British migrants to be preferred over all others through the first four decades of the 20th century. During the Second World War, Prime Minister John Curtin reinforced the policy, saying "This country shall remain forever the home of the descendants of those people who came here in peace in order to establish in the South Seas an outpost of the British race."[3] The policy was dismantled in stages by successive governments after the conclusion of the Second World War, with the encouragement of first non-British, non-white immigration, allowing for a large multi-ethnic post-war program of immigration. The Menzies and Holt Governments effectively dismantled the policies between 1949 and 1966 and the Whitlam Government passed laws to ensure that race would be totally disregarded as a component for immigration to Australia in 1973. In 1975 the Whitlam Government passed the Racial Discrimination Act, which made racially based selection criteria unlawful. In the decades since, Australia has maintained largescale multi-ethnic immigration. Australia's current Migration Program allows people from any country to apply to migrate to Australia, regardless of their nationality, ethnicity, culture, religion, or language, provided that they meet the criteria set out in law.[3] http://www.migrationheritage.nsw.gov.au/exhibition/objectsthroughtime/immigration-restriction-act/ |

Title: Re: Mundine calls for game anthem boycott Post by Yadda on Oct 7th, 2016 at 1:37pm Does Anthony Mundine read scripture ? Do you think ? Proverbs 1:10 My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not. 11 If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause: 12 Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit: 13 We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil: 14 Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse: 15 My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path: 16 For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood. 17 Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird. 18 And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives. 19 So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof. Psalms 4:5 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD. Psalms 112:7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD. 8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies. 9 He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour. 10 The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish. |

Genocide of Tasmanian tribes. An accurate murder estimate of Indigenous Australians by the British imperialists and later their 'settler' Anglo-Celtic spawn remains difficult to source. British invaders literally started hunting "Blacks" within days of the Botany Bay landing (1788), and up until 1970s continued through Anglo-Celtic descendants "abo-shoots' and "boong bashing" across Australia. Aborigines were regarded as little more than fauna and flora or native pests to be eradicated to make way for the "fine flower of civilization". Records therefore of massacres along with actual censuses of the Aboriginal population were near non-existent up until the middle of the 20th century. The prevailing Constitution of Australia, a vile document authored by British imperialists in 1901, is the only Constitutional document in the world that allows for racist discrimination against a group of people. The unspeakable savagery the British and their Anglo-Celtic Australian spawn unleashed upon Aboriginal Australia included the 'sport' of burying Aboriginal babies and children up to their necks and then kicking the heads until decapitation. Up until 1970s (in the outback 1980s) Anglo Australian motorists could intentionally run down 'Blacks' drunk or sober with impunity. Hundreds of Aborigines continue to commit suicide in jails and police lock-ups across Australia. Many of these 'suicides' are in fact homicides Enduring criminality: Thousands of Aboriginal children (Stolen Generations) ripped from tribes and parents in a nazi type effort to breed out aboriginality. This genocidal campaign continued up to the 1970s, consequently many 1000s of Aboriginal Australian survivors are today still traumatized. A national apology was belatedly given in 2008 by the then Prime Minister Kevin Rudd. Even this token gesture outraged many Anglo-Celtic Australians including former Prime Minister John Winston Howard who refused to endorse the apology. This moral poltroon argued 'guilt is not hereditary'. Aboriginal life expectancy is the world's worst. Aborigines are disproportionally imprisoned and hospitalized. As with American and Canadian Indigenous nations, Aboriginal communities are ravaged by drugs and alcohol including solvent abuse i.e. "petrol and glue sniffing". Suicide among the Aboriginal communities, particularly in remote areas is epidemic. The general diet of Aborigines has been spoilt by the British invasion with the consequence many Indigenous Australians suffer renal and diabetic conditions at epidemic proportions. The sum total of these British made and or introduced blights to the Aboriginal and Torre Straits nations amount to genocide and horrific subjugation for the survivors. Aboriginal art, icons and culture has been hijacked by the Australian Government and tourist industry which promotes white Australia to an ignorant foreign world. Gooey eyed foreign tourists pour into Australia every day utterly oblivious to the "Great Australian Silence" or more accurately the Great Anglophile Silence. This is a standard ploy of British imperialism stripping their victim nations of everything of value, including the very culture, along with the right to protest their misery. On this last point, former Prime Minister John Howard is testament to this form of perfidy particular to the anglophile breed. Howard in his deranged adulation for his mother country, Britain, was adamant throughout the 10 years he ruled Australia, that 'white' Australia had nothing to apologize for. This 'belief' was based on the very warped cowardly logic the unconscionable cruelties meted out to Indigenous Australia were (1) perpetrated by an older generation of Anglo-Celtic Australians (or the much preferred misnomer 'Europeans') and thus modern white Australia is blameless, and (2) the cruelties such as the mass abduction and racist indoctrination of Indigenous children was done with good intentions i.e. to assimilate the "Black savages" into the fine flower of British culture. Obscene anglophile Howard to date refuses to endorse the apology ... |
