and is reflected in the gluttony and debauchery that is prevalent in todays accepted australiana

much whoa is upon the participants of domination and control

As they should be.

They have their homeland in Romania and Bulgaria, but make a point of travelling to tourist hot spots in Europe every summer where they make an industry of pick-pocketing and thieving.

Don't be an idiot all your life John  - you owe that to your children.

Australia on Trial (2011) - Massacre at Myall Creek

Published on Nov 8, 2013
Presented by historian Michael Cathcart, Australia on Trial is a thought‐provoking three‐part series recreating the historic trials that throw light on the Australia of colonial times. These high‐profile and controversial court cases raised major issues of national identity at a time when Australia was evolving from the dominion of the British Empire into a more autonomous federated nation in the late 19th century.

Each of the cases caused a sensation at the time and attracted enormous public interest. Each triggered social and political debate about subjects at the very heart of Australian society: democracy and justice, the identity and behaviour of Australia's men, and attitudes towards women and Indigenous people - themes and concerns that are still relevant to modern-day Australia.

In June 1838, a group of roughneck stockmen  led by a squatter, rode in to the newly established Myall Creek station to 'teach the blacks a lesson'.

They hacked around 30 Aborigines to death. The killers had not calculated on tow factors. The first was that a stockman  named  Anderson,  who  witnessed  the  crime,  was  determined  to see his countrymen punished. The second was that the governor of New South Wales, George Gipps, shared Anderson's horror of such brutality. Anderson was ready to testify. The
government was  determined to  press the  case.  But the  prosecutor  did  not  obtain the
conviction easily. The trial was fought out as bitterly in the press as it was in the courtroom. 
But  in the  end,  a white  jury send seven  men to the  gallows  for the  murder of tribal
Aborigines.

No we are having Australia Day on May 27 as a gift

The boongs already have massive land rights, royalties from many mining sites, free cattle stations, their own fishing rights such as eating dugong, turtles and more shellfish than white man, many places where free housing was provided and burnt down, more welfare per head than any other. They also have equal rights to everything else. Rudd said sorry, I don't know why he said that he was not even  around then. So I don't think their is anything else that can be done for them. After 230yrs its up to them.
Captain Cook also saved them from the head hunters.

Cook wasn't even the first white person to discover Australia.
