Maybe the Media should bombard the Aborigines with viewings of "A Town Like Alice"?  ;D

40 thousand years of continuous, unchanging behaviour.
I blame the primitive, unreconstructed Stone Age culture.


Give them a Voice and they will advise to have unlimited green slabs and Toyotas.

You live well away from indigenous townships, I bet.

In Rockhampton, if an indigenous person gets hurt in any way, there is usually a bunch of phone calls made and you will find groups and groups of indigenous people coming into town to harass and hurt the locals at their choosing. The police usually get overwhelmed by the amount of trouble for the week. Then, when the indigenous are satisfied that they have gotten even (and then some), they will disperse back to their housing commissions.

Mum and Dad live down the road from an aboriginal housing commission home. Funded by drug money and the taxpayer, you should hear the fights that go on down there. I was around at my parents the other night and the screaming from the house down the way was enough to warrant a police patrol. But, Dad said that the screaming was so common that it was not worth the phone call.

And here you are "tsk tsk"-ing someone for pointing out a problem. So, either you are profiting off the problems indigenous people cause, or you are so absent from their fights and antisocial behaviour that you have no clue about what goes on in large groups of indigenous communities.

I see you RW nut jobs start another thread, to avoid the issue of welfare dependency, which the Police Commissioner highlighted as the chief cause of the problems in the Alice (and elsewhere in Oz)  today. 

A 3% unemployment rate and the Abbos choose to sit down the Todd and suck free piss with their hands out and let their kids go bunta.

Alice is finished, the savages have taken over.

Just to be sure.

It's not looking good for Alice.

...... Voldemort forces Albo's hand - after initially saying NO to expressing his voice in The Alice.... Albo flew in today to offer platitudes all round while Noel pearson stood in his Abo hat behind and wasn't even asked what he was personally doing about the violence etc in the Alice and elsewhere..... Albo's plan is to throw money........ more on our regular roast at GrapplerNews ...... meanwhile wastin' away down in Grapplerville ... an Aboriginal tent embassy has been set up in a local park to sit on Australia Day and maybe make a fuss when it comes along.... locals are praying for the massive storm to actually arrive and bring masses of mosquitoes........... the Abo embassy staff are forced to use their white man tents and chairs and Eskies and ride in them White man's cars, and to subsist on Macca's, KFC and Hungry jack's from down the road a piece...

Voldemort called when he got the word
And he said, "I suppose you've heard 'bout Alice"
So Albo rushed to the window and he looked outside
And he could hardly believe his eyes
As the big black gangs rode up Alice's drives …............
Oh, I know why people's leaving, dunno where they're gonna go
I know they've got their reasons, and you really oughta know
'Cause 24 times they've had broken down doors in  Alice
24 times breaking into business
Then into the homes to finish off the missus
Now they've gotta get used to living with crime in Alice ….........
They spewed up together, pissed in the park
Didn't even wait until it got dark  … in Alice
Now they kick down the door with no reason why
And never catch a bullet above the eye
As the big black gangs slowly take over the  Alice ….............
Oh, I know why people's leaving, dunno where they're gonna go
I know they've got their reasons, and you really oughta know
'Cause 24 times they've had broken down doors in  Alice
24 times breaking into business
Then into all the homes to finish off the missus
Now they've gotta get used to living with crime in Alice ….......
Albo called in, and asked how they felt
He said, "I know how to help, get over Alice"
He said, "Alice is gone, but I'm still here
You know I've been waiting 24 years"
And the bloody PM disappeared from Alice...
Oh, I know why people's leaving, dunno where they're gonna go

She needs to go further - and do what Albo said at the start when he was spruiking up some 'voice' - and say that any such things needed to be based on key performance indicators of advances within those communities - a position quietly dropped once he actually got the hot seat and never mentioned since.

Typical comment coming from a complete lack of understanding of the circumstances of welfare-dependent people living in the town camps around Alice Springs.

Access to education requires access to clean, safe housing.

Waffle. People need access to safe, clean housing, education and jobs, which don't exist in the town camps around the Alice. Co-operation with a dysfunctional economic system which itself is a cause of the welfare dependency is pointless.

You can't have 'performance indicators' in 4th world camps, without creating the jobs and decent housing first.

He's dreaming the dreamtime

Where can Alice go now going forward, alcohol bans have just been put in place there but Albo now needs to go to Wadeye and Tennant Creek etc to look at the broader issue, issues such as Abbos being allowed to live out in the bush and not work.

Alice is doomed, nothing can be done for that hellhole now.

wrote on :

Not quoting properly, FD... what gives?

Albo flitted in and out just to show his face after Voldemort shamed him.... weak as piss.  Should have gone on to Wadey and Darwin and really got a close look at things....  like I said - weak as piss.

First stop - booze wasn't cut off completely - should have been back to the ban... then the arrest and detention of all crime doers.... hold them until a court sorts them out. Send in reinforcements as required.... all these politicians up there are as weak as piss.  Look at that dopey sheila crying to preserve her 'state' sovereignty from Federal intervention while Rome burns... chicken poo coward lose with nothing to lose in her ivory tower.

Where is Mad Mike Hoare when you need him?

There must be a reason for that - what are they hoping to gain?  Surely not a vote for any voice through fear?  Anyone who gave such a thing after all this would be clearly insane and should be ineligible to vote.  Imagine if this was in Texas or Arizona or similar with different gun laws.... there'd be no trouble by now at all.... all quiet on that western front...

Yes.

That's because 'progressives' are beholden to the same neoliberal market orthodoxy as conservatives, meaning job creation schemes (eg, as in the former CDEP)  in the camps are ruled out on financial grounds.

But of course any suggestions the camps around Alice can be simply closed down and everyone will find a job in the Alice are absurd - which was Abbott's mistake.

It's not looking good for Alice, the Boongs were out in full force there today for the annual hate invasion day protest, i wouldn't like to be in that hellhole tonight, the Boongs are going to be strugling on monday and tuesday when they can't get any piss by order of Albo, they will probably go full bunta.

Well - whenever a solution is offered it is shouted down...... give 'em a homeland no interference whatsoever from Whitey, no cars, no power, no nothing .... make it self-sufficient by running safaris for rich Asians .... let 'em live their idyllic traditional way....... hunt and gather to their heart's content....

They won't come at that....

Gulag the lot in Phar Ken Queue province of Capoyorki as handed to them by the Pale Assed Chick in Brisbandar Abbas .... let 'em live by their own laws and such.....

They won't come at that....

Give each family a block of land and tell them that's it.... more than anyone else gets handed to them for free....

They won't come at that....

Round up the dissidents, toss them in with all the other dissidents who hate on this country, withdraw all their privileges, and put 'em on the list for deportation via The Reverse Boat People Program (good start on all those other jack-asses who attended those demonstrations today - take names and photos, and put 'em on the list for Austranamo Bay)... ship 'em out on the next available Reverse Boat to Nowhere....

They won't come at that.....

I don't know what else to offer them to at least slow down their evident distress and despair over being forced to live in a First World country safe from persecution and with all full and equal rights and more opportunities free than any other group ...... other than to offer them voluntary euthenasia....

You can lead an Abo to water, but he'll still refuse it for a VB .....

Meanwhile the illustrious and fabled elders who know the lore of the land and have so much to teach whartey about the way things really are, take photo ops with Albo during his flying visit, and then have the damned gall to get up in front of the cameras and crowds of do-gooders and carry on about how bad they've got it, how they are over-represented in the prison system, how they die younger (normal with their DNA), how they lag in education and opportunities and prosperity.

Go out there and give them all jobs - see how many of them show up compared to how many expect to be paid for being on the payroll.
