no surprise that the forums biggest racists have all lined up with their excuses Cheesy

We don't know if the taxi drivers did not take Ms Donovan because of her racial background or because of Ms Donovan herself. If she had an attitude, the taxi drivers might have refused her a fare, out of a sense of their own safety.

I was a pizza delivery driver in my late teens. If something did not seem right, we did not deliver there.

We don't know anything other than what's in the story. Didn't stop you all making excuses

We don't know what the context of the refusal was for the taxi drivers in taking that fare.

So you make it up?

Isn't that what making it 'wacist' is, stupid thick concreter? Making it up.

How do YOU know why she was refused?

I offered a plausible possibility that Ms Donovan might well have had an attitude. Getting off a plane and trying to get a taxi, you could imagine that a passenger might be grumpy.
"Are you on f'n duty, or what?" might be something a grumpy disembarked plane passenger might say. Or maybe "f- off. I am not paying my fare" when they get to a destination.

I know you're dumb as dogshit so I'll explain it to you. That it was racist IS in the story on the OP. Cheesy

You made an excuse

The video posted detailed a possible explanation why taxi drivers won't pick up indigenous people. Too often, taxi drivers get fare evaders who happen to be indigenous. Unfortunately, my ex had the experience of getting chucked from a taxi, by a taxi driver who refused her service. She claimed that every other taxi driver had been polite and professional with her.

Just listening to an interview Ms Donovan is having, she sounds very aboriginal activist. She seems very down-to-Earth. But, if there was more to it than Ms Donovan is saying, the taxi drivers might actually have an excuse not to take her.

Obviously, the taxi drivers will have to shut their mouths about this and deny refusing service. Because from here on for a while, they are going to get targeted. Taxi drivers are likely to see an escalation of fare evaders until this matter gets resolved.

One anecdote:

Wasted your time posting that video ... Smith & Co wouldn't accept that anecdotal example as a plausible excuse or reason why the incident may have happened.

A good point he made was that instead of crying racism and blaming the cab drivers maybe Ms Donovan should be blaming her Aboriginal brothers and sisters for the fare evasion that may have influenced the cabbies decision not to take her.

That's pretty much the theme of this forum these days, to platform those types of views.

It is what it is.

And you lefty wankers don't use the forum to platform your views? Roll Eyes

Or are you all just woke virtue signaling White Knights in here? Grin

Wanting to treat Indigenous Australians as human beings rather than zoo creatures to be locked up or hunted for sport isn't "woke virtue signalling".

It's normal human behaviour.

You've gone so far right off the spectrum that you're seeing normal human behaviour as woke leftist extremism.

Nope.

The taxi driver doesn't like Aboriginal people, and that's why he refused to let her in the car.

It's Racism 101.

Open-and-shut case.

But of course, *poorly educated racists don't see it that way.

*I realise that "poorly educated" is redundant in that sentence.

Ah, you were there were you and saw this incident in its entirety? Far easier for you to spout your biased rubbish than wait for a full examination of the incident. Saves you thinking, which is not your strong point. Roll Eyes
