Just imagine if someone threw a can of white paint over those..... the uproar....

.. breaking news..... 1/12/2402 ........... the unearthing of a statue in the ancient city of Fitzroy shows clearly that the Originals culture was far more advanced than at first thought......... cast of bronze these show that Originals possessed the ability to smelt ores and create of the metals often complex artefacts .... some scientists at ANU consider this to be in keeping with their extensive trade throughout the world in such fine artefacts ... carried on in the fabled 500 ft 'Long Canoes' powered by the sun, of which no remnants can be found due to colonisation .........

You beat me to it.

I have no problems with the erecting of statues of Archie & Ruby as Aboriginal musicians......

what I have a problem with is the statue & monument vandalism by Treaty/Truthteller/ history rewriters/cancel culture blak activists & their woke supporters.

The war has begun - most of you just don't know it yet.

Why is this you first thought in this thread?

Was absolutely no part of even remotely inspired to censure yourself before you posted this particular piece of gobsmackingly bizarre inflammation?

So, anything representing First Nations people's (suck it) is to be whinged incessantly about because activists have done stuff.

Genius.

What irony? Do you even know what the word means?

Are you able to construct in your mind the motives for First Nations peolpe (suck itA) covering their faces with white paint?

Noe, why did white people cover themselves with black paint?

Do you think there is a difference in intent?

You might need to think really, really hard. Take your time.
